Legal

POPIA compliance

Cradl processes personal information in line with the Protection of Personal Information Act, 2013.

Lawful processing

We process personal information only where it is necessary to provide the marketplace, where you have consented, or where the law requires it.

Minimality

We ask for the least information needed. Bank details are collected only from sellers who want payouts, and ID verification only where required for trust.

Your POPIA rights

Under POPIA you may:

  • Ask what personal information we hold about you
  • Request correction or deletion
  • Object to processing
  • Complain to the Information Regulator

Information Officer

Requests can be sent to privacy@cradl.site. We respond within 30 days as required by the Act.

Cross-border transfers

Some infrastructure providers store data outside South Africa under contractual safeguards that require an equivalent level of protection.

Breach notification

If personal information is compromised, we notify affected users and the Information Regulator as soon as reasonably possible.
