Privacy Policy

Your data, your trust — we protect both. Here's everything you need to know about how we handle your information.

Last updated: January 2026

Information We Collect

We collect information to provide and continuously improve our services. This includes:

  • Contact information — your name, email address, and phone number when you fill in a form or reach out to us.
  • Technical information — IP address, browser type, device information, and operating system.
  • Usage data — pages you visit, links you click, time spent on pages, and other interaction data.
  • Communications — messages you send us via contact forms, email, or social media.
Note: We never collect sensitive personal information such as financial data, ID numbers, or passwords unless explicitly required to deliver a specific service.

How We Use Your Information

Your data is used solely to deliver and improve our services. Specifically, we use it to:

  • Deliver our services effectively and respond to your project requests.
  • Communicate with you about your project, invoices, or updates.
  • Send promotional updates or newsletters — but only if you opt in.
  • Analyse website traffic and behaviour to improve user experience.
  • Comply with legal obligations where required.

Sharing Your Data

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We may share limited data with trusted third-party service providers who assist us in operating our business, such as:

  • Hosting and cloud infrastructure providers
  • Analytics platforms (e.g. Google Analytics)
  • Email service providers
  • Payment processors (when applicable)

All third-party providers are contractually required to handle your data securely and only for the purposes we specify.

We never sell your data. Your information is never shared with advertisers or marketing companies.

Cookies & Tracking

We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your browsing experience and understand how our website is used. Types of cookies we use:

  • Essential cookies — required for the website to function correctly.
  • Analytics cookies — help us understand visitor behaviour in aggregate.
  • Preference cookies — remember settings like language or theme.

You can control or disable cookies via your browser settings at any time. Disabling cookies may affect some website functionality.

Data Retention

We retain your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes outlined in this policy, or as required by law. Specifically:

  • Project-related data is retained for the duration of the engagement plus 3 years.
  • Contact form submissions are retained for up to 12 months.
  • Analytics data is retained in aggregate, anonymised form indefinitely.

When data is no longer needed, it is securely deleted or anonymised.

Security

We take data security seriously and implement industry-standard measures to protect your information, including:

  • SSL/TLS encryption across all web properties
  • Secure access controls on all internal systems
  • Regular security reviews and updates
  • Minimal data collection — we only collect what we actually need

While we take every reasonable precaution, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure. We encourage you to contact us immediately at info@6thtally.co.za if you suspect any security issue.

Your Rights

You have full rights over your personal data. You may request to:

  • Access the personal data we hold about you
  • Correct any inaccurate or incomplete data
  • Delete your data (the "right to be forgotten")
  • Restrict how we process your data in certain circumstances
  • Opt out of any marketing communications at any time

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at info@6thtally.co.za. We will respond within 30 days.

Children's Privacy

Our services are not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us immediately and we will delete it promptly.

Policy Changes

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this page periodically.

Continued use of our website after changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
