The processing of personal information is an important compliance matter for all businesses these days. By now most people know that the Protection of Personal Information Act 4 of 2013 (the “PoPI Act”) is the law with effect 1 July 2020.  Every public and private enterprise must comply, and a grace period of 1 year applies.
