Protection of Personal Information Act (POPI)



About these POPI Act Seminars

In 2013, South Africa passed the Protection of Personal Information Act (POPI). Although it predates the GDPR, it’s often referred to as South Africa’s GDPR equivalent.

The goal of the POPI Act is to protect data subjects from security breaches, theft, and discrimination. With POPI coming into full effect from 1 July 2021, it is crucial for every working professional to understand how the processing and management of personal information will change in order to meet the requirements of POPIA.

Our 1 Day POPI Act seminar will focus on helping you to familiarise yourself with POPI and data protection whilst also focusing on all the fundamental requirements and practices to ensure you can process and manage data compliantly.

Our 2 Day POPI and data protection seminar will help you understand the full implications of the POPI Act and how it will influence your business going forward. Rui will go into detail about how to make your organisation compliant, how to process and manage data in future, as well as the consequences of non-compliance.
