This statement reflects the privacy policy of NGDA, the owner and operator of NGDA Online, with respect to the website located atwww.nicogrobler.co.za (the "Site"). This statement is intended to inform casual visitors of the Site, and visitors who actively use the Site, of the data collection and use practices of the Site. Amendments to this statement will be posted at this URL and will be effective when posted. Your continued use of this Site following the posting of any amendment, modification, or change shall constitute your acceptance thereof, except if your personally identifiable information will be used in a materially different manner. See our Notification of Changes section below.


Personally Identifiable Information

We only collect personally identifiable information, such as names, home addresses, e-mail addresses and contact numbers, from our visitors when such information is voluntarily provided. For example, when applying for a username and password, a visitor will be required to provide first and last name, company, contact details, e-mail address. etc. The personally identifiable information that NGDA collects is used to provide services to participants of the Site, to customise content, product offerings and/or layout of our Site for each individual visitor, to notify visitors about updates to and activities on the Site, and to contact visitors for information verification purposes. Personally identifiable information collected on the Site is NOT shared with third parties without your prior express consent. While NGDA uses personally identifiable information to learn more about how visitors use the Site and to provide visitors with information about goods and services that we feel may be of interest to you, we will not release any personally identifiable information to third parties without your consent. In order to participate in our forums, users must be registered as a member of our website. Upon participating in our forum, members will be asked for their username and password. In addition, members have the option to allow other members to view their email address. Always remember that in order to protect your privacy users should not post any personal information, such as their home address or credit card information, as this information is made available to all visitors. Though we make every effort to preserve user privacy, we may need to disclose personal information when required by law wherein we have a good-faith belief that such action is necessary to comply with a current judicial proceeding, a court order, or legal process served on our website.


Enhancement of Personal Information

We may at times enhance our user database information with third party data to better target our advertising and provide pertinent offers we think our users would be interested in. Certain summary demographics are also used in our research product offerings. Individual information is never used in our research product offering and is never tied back to the individual or resold for any purposes. Visitors that provide us with their postal address will be automatically eligible to receive special offers concerning new products and services or learn of upcoming events via postal mail. If you do not wish to receive such mailings, please notify us by e-mail at info@NGDAstudios.co.za. Please provide us with your exact username and address. We will be sure your name is removed from the lists we use for these purposes.


Service Announcements

On rare occasions it is necessary to send out a strictly service related announcement. For instance, if our service is temporarily suspended for maintenance we might send users an email. Generally, users may not opt-out of these communications, though they can deactivate their account. These communications are not promotional in nature.


Special Offers and Updates

We send all new members a welcoming email to verify password and username. Established members will occasionally receive information on products, services, special deals, and a weekly newsletter. Out of respect for the privacy of our users we present the option to not receive these types of communications. Please see the Choice and Opt-out sections.


Customer Service

We communicate with users on a regular basis to provide requested services and in regard to issues relating to their account we reply via email or phone, in accordance with the users' wishes.


Surveys & Contests

From time-to-time our site requests information from users via surveys or contests. Participation in these surveys or contests is completely voluntary and the user therefore has a choice whether or not to disclose this information. The requested information typically includes contact information (such as name and shipping address), and demographic information (such as postal code). Contact information will be shared with the contest or survey sponsors to notify the winners and award prizes. Anonymous Survey information will be used for purposes of monitoring or improving the use and satisfaction of this site. Users' personally identifiable information is not shared with third parties unless we give prior notice and choice. Though we may use an intermediary to conduct these surveys or contests, these intermediaries will not use the users' personally identifiable information for any secondary purposes. Non-Personally Identifiable Information Our server automatically recognises visitors' domain name and Internet Protocol addresses (where possible). Our server does not collect any personal information about our visitors unless such information is voluntarily provided by the visitor. We also collect information about how visitors use the Site (for example what terms are searched for). This information, which is collected and maintained in anonymous, non-personal, aggregate form, allows us to improve the content of the Site and facilitate market research. Sometimes, we utilise the services of a third party to help us understand this information better, though the information that is disclosed to these entities remains at all times in anonymous, non-personal form. Other than improving the Site and providing our visitors with the best experience possible, we make no other use of this information. From time to time we also ask our visitors for certain information about themselves, such as buying preferences, street address, marital status, income, education level, occupation, industry, gender, birth dates, and country. We request this information to provide visitors with notices of special offers from the Site and others that may be of interest to such visitors. This information is kept in a database at NGDA and not distributed to third parties.


Cookies

"Cookies" are commonly used pieces of information in the form of small text files that are placed on an individual's computer hard drive to enable the individual to more easily communicate and interact with the Site. We use cookies to save certain information about users of the Site and others who visit the Site, in order to facilitate and enhance future activities with the NGDA and/or Site. NGDA does not use cookies to retrieve information from a computer that is unrelated to NGDA or the Site. We may at times use an outside advertisement serving company to display advertisements on the Site. The advertisement serving company may place and collect cookies when it displays an advertisement on the Site. We do not have access to information that would confirm the use of cookies by the advertisement serving company. Most browsers will allow you to erase cookies from your computer hard drive, block acceptance of cookies, or receive a warning before a cookie is stored. Please refer to your browser instructions or help screen to learn more about these functions.


Access, Review, Update

Visitors who have registered with the Site may access, review, delete/deactivate and update the personal information that was previously provided to us by emailing us at info@NGDAstudios.co.za.

Consent to Processing

By visiting this Site, all visitors consent to the collection, maintenance, and processing of their personal and non-personal information.


Notification of Changes

If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post material changes on www.nicogrobler.co.za so our users are aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and if we disclose it. If at any point we decide to use personally identifiable information in a manner different from that stated at the time it was collected, we would notify users by way of an e-mail. Users will have a choice as to whether or not we use their information in this different manner. We will use information in accordance with the privacy policy under which the information was collected. However, if you have deleted/deactivated your personal account information you will not be contacted, nor will your information be used in this new manner.


Security

Our Site has industry standard security measures in place to protect the loss, misuse, and alteration of the information under our control. While there is no such thing as "perfect security" on the Internet, we will take all reasonable steps to insure the safety of your personal information.

Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job are granted access to personally identifiable information. Finally, the servers that we store personally identifiable information on are kept in a secure environment.
