1. Introduction

Netronical ("we", "us", "our") is committed to protecting your personal information in accordance with the Protection of Personal Information Act 4 of 2013 (POPIA) and other applicable South African law. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect when you use our website, place an order, or make use of our repair, installation, or IT services, and how we use, store, and protect it.

2. Information We Collect

  • Contact details — name, email address, phone number, and delivery/billing address, provided when you register, place an order, or contact us.
  • Order & service information — products purchased, repair or service history, device details, and communication related to your order or booking.
  • Payment information — payments are processed securely by our third-party payment gateway (Yoco); we do not store your full card details on our servers.
  • Account information — login credentials (stored securely, passwords are encrypted) for clients and affiliates who register on our website.
  • Technical information — IP address, browser type, device information, and pages visited, collected automatically to help us operate and improve the website.
  • Affiliate & referral data — if you join our affiliate program, we collect the information needed to track referrals and process payouts.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use your personal information to: process and fulfil orders and repair/service bookings; communicate with you about your order, quote, or account; provide customer support; process payments and prevent fraud; manage affiliate referrals and commission payouts; send you service updates, receipts, and (where you've opted in) promotional communications; and improve our website, products, and services.

4. Cookies

Our website uses cookies and similar technologies to keep you logged in, remember your cart, and understand how visitors use our site so we can improve it. You can disable cookies in your browser settings, but some parts of the website (such as checkout) may not function correctly without them.

5. Sharing Your Information

We do not sell your personal information. We may share it with: payment processors (Yoco) to process transactions; delivery/courier partners to fulfil orders; email and hosting service providers who help us operate the website; and law enforcement or regulators where we are legally required to do so. Any third party we share information with is required to protect it and use it only for the purpose we've engaged them for.

6. Data Security

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your personal information against loss, unauthorised access, and disclosure, including encrypted password storage and secure payment processing. However, no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

7. Data Retention

We retain your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this policy, comply with our legal and tax obligations, and resolve disputes. Repair and order records may be kept for a reasonable period after a transaction to support warranty claims and legal requirements.

8. Your Rights

Under POPIA, you have the right to request access to the personal information we hold about you, ask us to correct or update inaccurate information, request deletion of your personal information (subject to our legal obligations), and object to or opt out of direct marketing communications at any time.
