General information

The following information will provide you with an easy to navigate overview of what will happen with your personal data when you visit our website. The term “personal data” shall bear the meaning ascribed to “personal information” under GDPR and POPIA and, for purposes of this policy, comprises all data that can be used to personally identify you. For detailed information about the subject matter of data protection, please consult our Data Protection Declaration, which we have included beneath this copy.

The purpose of this section is to inform data subjects about how we processes their personal data by, inter alia, collecting or collating, receiving, recording, storing, updating, distributing, erasing or destroying, disclosing and/or generally using the data subject’s personal data.

TNP, in its capacity as responsible party and/or operator (as these terms are defined by GDPR and POPIA), shall strive to observe, and comply with its obligations under GDPR and POPIA as well as accepted information protection principles, practices and guidelines when it processes personal data from or in respect of a data subject.

Please note that this policy does not apply to the information practices of third party companies who we may engage with in relation to our business operations (including, without limitation, their websites, platforms and/or applications) which we do not own or control; or individuals that TNP does not manage or employ. These third party sites may have their own privacy policies and terms and conditions and we encourage you to read them before using them.

Data recording on our website

Who is the responsible party for the recording of personal data on this website (i.e. the “controller” / “responsible party”)?

The personal data on this website is processed by the operator of the website, whose contact information is available under section “Information Required by Law” on this website.

How do we collect and record your personal data?

We generally collect personal data directly from data subjects, unless an exception is applicable (such as, for example, where the data subject has made the personal data public or the personal data is contained in or derived from a public record).

We collect your personal data as a result of your sharing of your personal data with us. This may, for instance be information you enter into our contact form.

Our IT systems automatically record other data when you visit our website. This data comprises primarily technical information (e.g. web browser, operating system or time the site was accessed). This information is recorded automatically when you access our website.

We will always collect personal data in a fair, lawful and reasonable manner to ensure that it protects the data subject’s privacy and will process the personal data based on legitimate grounds in a manner that does not adversely affect the data subject in question.

Note: You are not obliged to provide your personal data to us.

Where we obtain personal data from third parties, we will strive to ensure that we obtain the consent of the data subject to do so or will only process the personal data without the data subject’s consent where we have another basis to do so.

Lawful processing of personal data

Where TNP is the Responsible Party, it will only process a data subject’s personal data where –

  • consent of the Data Subject (or a competent person where the data subject is a child (as that terms is defined under POPIA of any other applicable legislation)) is obtained;
  • processing is necessary to carry out the actions for conclusion of a contract to which a data subject is party;
  • processing complies with an obligation imposed by law on TNP;
  • processing protects a legitimate interest of the data subject; and/or
  • processing is necessary for pursuing the legitimate interests of TNP or of a third party to whom the information is supplied.

TNP will only process personal data where one of the legal bases referred to above are present.

Where TNP is relying on a data subject’s consent as the legal basis for processing personal data, the data subject may withdraw his/her/its consent or may object to TNP’s processing of the personal data at any time. However, this will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out prior to the withdrawal of consent or any processing justified by any other legal ground provided under GDPR and POPIA.

If the consent is withdrawn or if there is otherwise a justified objection against the use or the Processing of such personal data, TNP will ensure that the personal data is no longer processed.

Storage and processing of personal data by us and third party service providers

Retention of personal data

We may keep records of the personal data we have collected, correspondence, or comments in an electronic format.

In terms of GDPR and POPIA, TNP may not retain personal data for a period longer than is necessary to achieve the purpose for which it was collected or processed and is required to delete, destroy (in such a way that it cannot be reconstructed) or de-identify the information as soon as is reasonably practicable once the purpose has been achieved.

A wide range of data processing transactions are possible only subject to your express consent. You can also revoke at any time any consent you have already given us. To do so, all you are required to do is sent us an informal notification via e-mail. This shall be without prejudice to the lawfulness of any personal data collection or processing that occurred prior to your revocation. Furthermore, under POPIA, should any other basis for processing of your personal data apply, we will continue processing your personal data under that basis.

Right to object to the collection of data in special cases; right to object to direct advertising (Art. 21 GDPR and Section 5 (1) (d) of POPIA)

In the event that personal data are processed on the basis of Article 6 (1) (e) or (f) GDPR or Section 11(1)(e) – (f), you have the right to at any time object to the processing of your personal data based on grounds arising from your unique situation. This also applies to any profiling based on these provisions. To determine the legal basis, on which any processing of data is based, please consult this Data Protection Declaration. If you log an objection, we will no longer process your affected personal data, unless we are in a position to present compelling protection worthy grounds for the processing of your data, that outweigh your interests, rights and freedoms or if the purpose of the processing is the claiming, exercising or defence of legal entitlements (objection pursuant to Article 21 (1) of the GDPR and Section and Section 5 (1) (d) of POPIA).

Right to data portability

You have the right to demand that we hand over any data we automatically process on the basis of your consent or in order to fulfil a contract be handed over to you or a third party in a commonly used, machine readable format. If you should demand the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will be done only if it is technically feasible.

If the processing of your personal data was/is conducted in an unlawful manner, you have the option to demand the restriction of the processing of your data in lieu of demanding the eradication of this data.

If we do not need your personal data any longer and you need it to exercise, defend or claim legal entitlements, you have the right to demand the restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of its eradication.
