Overview
This policy applies to the Brand New Bold website and enquiries sent to us. Brand New Bold, based in Cape Town, South Africa, is the responsible party for the personal information described here.
We process personal information in line with South Africa’s Protection of Personal Information Act, 2013 (POPIA). We do not sell personal information or use this website for behavioural advertising.
Effective date: 4 August 2026. We may update this policy when our services, technology or legal duties change.
Information we handle
Information you choose to send
When you contact us, we may receive your name, email address, company or brand, project needs, budget, timing and anything else you include in your message. The website prepares your enquiry in your own email application; it does not submit the form to a website database.
Technical information
Our hosting and security providers may automatically receive limited technical information such as an IP address, browser and device type, requested pages, timestamps and diagnostic logs. This is commonly needed to deliver, secure and troubleshoot a website.
Client and supplier information
If we work together, we may also process contact, briefing, contractual, billing and project information needed to manage that relationship.
How and why we use it
- To respond to enquiries and discuss potential work.
- To deliver agreed services and manage client or supplier relationships.
- To operate, protect, maintain and improve the website.
- To keep appropriate business, financial and legal records.
- To meet legal obligations or establish, exercise or defend legal claims.
Depending on the context, we rely on your consent, steps taken at your request before a contract, performance of a contract, our legitimate interests in running and protecting the studio, or a legal obligation. You can withdraw consent where consent is the basis, without affecting earlier lawful processing.
Your rights
Subject to POPIA, you may ask whether we hold your personal information, request access, correction or deletion, object to certain processing, withdraw consent, or raise a concern about how it is handled. We may need to verify your identity before completing a request.
If we cannot resolve your concern, you may complain to South Africa’s Information Regulator or email POPIAComplaints@inforegulator.org.za.
Contact us about privacy
For a privacy request or question, email hello@brandnewbold.co.za with “Privacy request” in the subject line. We will acknowledge the request and respond within a reasonable period.
