POPIA Privacy Notice Department of Community Safety 2021
(Western Cape Government)
1. The Protection of Personal Information Act, 2013 (POPIA)
The Protection of Personal Information Act, 2013 (POPIA) protects personal information of natural and juristic persons and requires the Department of Community Safety to comply with the eight minimum conditions set out in the Act.
‘Personal information’ is any information that can identify a person.
Personal information includes ‘special personal information’, which is a particular category of personal information. While we recognise that protecting all personal information is important in gaining and maintaining your trust, special personal information is often afforded a higher level of protection.
