PAIA – The Promotion of Access to Information Act and POPI – The Protection of Personal Information Act

THE REGULATION OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION – PAIA and POPI

The Promotion of Access to Information Act (PAIA) was passed to give effect to the constitutional right of access to information that is held by a private or public body and that is required for the exercise or protection of any rights.

The Protection of Personal Information Act (POPI) was enacted to give effect to the constitutional right to privacy by promoting the protection of personal information when processed by public or private bodies.

ACCESS TO YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION / ACCESSING THE BUYER OR SELLER’S INFORMATION

Both Acts allow Auction It All SA consumers to access certain information.

PAIA makes provision for consumers to access to their own information in the possession or under the control of Auction It All SA. Consumers may also request access to the information of the buyer or seller in the event that:

  • The buyer or seller is no longer contactable pursuant to a sale or purchase;
  • Where the buyer or seller is not fulfilling their obligations in terms of a sale;
  • Where the buyer or seller is acting illegally or fraudulently.

In terms of the POPI Act, Auction It All SA consumers may specifically request:

  • Confirmation of whether or not Auction It All SA holds any personal information regarding the consumer;
  • A record or a description of the personal information about the consumer including information about all third parties who have had access to that information.
