We will use, process and analyse your personal information for the following purposes:

To provide you with your services

Processing your order and providing you with your products and services

  • We have regulatory obligations, including compliance with anti-money laundering legislation, to process your personal information. This includes verifying your identity or the identity of your beneficial owner and/or controlling persons. We are also required by various laws to maintain a record of our dealings with clients.
  • In order for us to provide you with the products and services that you have requested and to notify you of important changes to such products and services, we need to collect and  use your personal information. This includes other services not included in your agreement with us , services that use information about where you are, and to contact you with messages about changes to the products or services.
  • To conclude and administer your application, which may include underwriting.
  • To execute a transaction in accordance with your request.
  • To assess, check, and process claims.
  • To meet our contractual obligations with you or take steps necessary for the conclusion of a contract with you.
  • For audit and record-keeping purposes.
  • For purposes of proof and legal proceedings.

Billing and customer care

  • To bill you for using our products and services, or to take the appropriate amount of credit from you.
  • Contact you if the billing information you provided us with is about to expire or we’re not able to take payment.
  • To respond to any questions or concerns you may have about our, products or services.

Service messages

  • We will contact you with customer service messages to keep you updated with current information about products and services you’ve taken. For example, changes to our terms and conditions.

To improve our service

Improving and innovating our products and services

  • We collect anonymous, de-identified or aggregate information in order to improve the service we offer to everyone. None of these analytics can identify you individually or link back to you in any way.
  • We conduct surveys to understand various aspects of our interaction with you, the use of our services and products and the network.

Marketing and tailoring our service to you

Marketing

  • As our customer, we will contact you to keep you informed about new and existing products and services, competitions, prize draws and other promotions and we may use your personal information to run those competitions, prize draw, events and promotions, only to the extent that you have not, at any stage, objected to receiving such marketing communications. We may also, with your consent, send you newsletters or white papers and occasionally invite you to participate in market research. We tailor these messages based on the products and services you’ve bought from us in the past and we will only provide you with marketing content regarding our own products and services that are similar to or related to the products and services previously provided to you.
  • If you have given us your permission, we will also contact you to let you know about products and services of Vodacom Group companies including Vodacom (Pty) Ltd, Vodacom Financial Services (Pty) Ltd, Vodacom Payment Services (Pty) Ltd products and services and those of other companies which we think may interest you.
  • There are various ways that we may do this – including by email, post, phone, text, picture message or notifications through our apps.
  • You can control your marketing permissions and the personal information we use to tailor these communications at any time. 

Advertising online

  • To deliver advertising that is relevant to you, you’ll also see targeted advertising online based on the use of cookies. This is known as interest-based advertising. It can be on websites belonging to the Vodacom Group, those of other organisations as well as other online media channels such as social media sites. We may also combine data collected via the cookies with other data we have collected. If you don't want any information processed through the use of cookies, check the 'Cookies' section in this Privacy Portal. It explains how to control and opt out of cookies.
  • Remember that opting out of interest-based advertising doesn't stop advertisements from being displayed – it's just that they won’t be tailored to your interests.
  • You will also see advertising in your social media, for example in your Facebook or Twitter feed. If you don’t want to receive this advertising, go to the relevant platform’s ad settings.

Research and analytics

We use a variety of analytics methods including what is commonly referred to as “Big data analytics”. Big data analytics are mathematically driven analysis techniques on large and varied data sets (that is why it is “big” data) to uncover hidden patterns and hitherto unrevealed trends. At Vodacom Life Assurance Company (RF) Limited we take governance of big data analytics seriously. Our data scientists are required to adhere to a Code of Ethics. We have a strict use case process that requires that privacy and data protection law checks are carried out before any use case commences. We also have strict rules ensuring that personal information is protected at the appropriate stage in the process.

We use our analytics to, for example:

  • Conduct market research and to carry out research and statistical analysis, including to monitor how customers use our networks, products and services;
  • Frame our marketing campaigns and determine how we might personalise those;
  • Provide reports to third parties (such reports don’t contain information which may identify you as an individual). These can be to third parties such as content providers, research companies and advertisers or as part of our

Credit checks, fraud prevention and security

We will sometimes need to profile you, for credit, fraud and security purposes. When we conduct such profiling activities, we will do so in accordance with the provisions of the relevant legislation or lawful requirement.

Credit checks and ID

We will also use your personal information for identity verification purposes, for access to your account and for general account management. We sometimes supplement the information we collect about you with information from other sources (for example, home affairs, the voters roll and credit reference agencies) to assess the accuracy of the information that we hold.

Fraud prevention and security

We will process your personal and traffic data in order to protect against and detect fraud, to protect and detect misuse or damage to our networks, to recover debts or trace those who owe us money resulting from the use of our services.

Automated Decisions

There may be instances where we will process your personal information through a secure automated tool, or perform profiling and make decisions, based on such profiling, that may affect you significantly. An example of automated decision making is the approval or declining of an insurance claim. If you are unhappy about the outcome of such a decision or would like further information on how such outcome was reached, please contact:

  • Third parties that we use to serve you marketing.

In all such instances where we may share your personal information with a third party, we will ensure that there is a lawful basis in order to do so. We will further ensure that any third party receiving personal information is bound to the appropriate agreement, ensuring that the respective third party protects your personal information in a manner that is equivalent or commensurate to our own internal policies and procedures. Any third party located outside of South Africa will be obliged to ensure their processing activities are compliant with the requirements and protections afforded in terms of POPIA.

Third parties that we work with

If we have a contract with a service provider or contractor to provide us with services or provide a service on our behalf, and they may have access to your personal information, we don’t authorise them to use or disclose your personal information except in connection with providing their services.  We ensure that all our service providers and contractors align to our policies and requirements.

We collect and combine information in order to monitor your use of products and services, and that of our other customers, as well as to help us to improve the quality of our products and services.

HOW LONG DO WE KEEP YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION FOR?

We may not retain your personal information any longer than is necessary for achieving the purpose for achieving the purpose for which your personal information was collected or subsequently processed, unless:

  • The retention of your personal information is required or authorised by law;
  • We reasonably require your personal information for lawful purpose related to our function or activities;
  • The retention of your personal information is required by a contract that we enter into with you; and/or

We have specialised security teams who constantly review, improve, and ensure the implementation of appropriate, reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your personal information from unauthorised access, accidental loss, disclosure or destruction.  We are required in terms of POPIA to notify you and the Information Regulator, if any of your personal information has been compromised.

Communications over the internet (such as emails) aren’t secure unless they’ve been encrypted. Your communications may go through a number of countries before being delivered, as this is the nature of the internet.

We cannot accept responsibility for any unauthorised access or loss of personal information that is beyond our control.

We’ll never ask for your secure personal or account information by an unsolicited means of communication. You’re responsible for keeping your personal and account information secure and not sharing it with others.

Our website may provide links to third-party websites. We cannot be responsible for the security and content of such third-party websites. You are therefore required to make sure you read that company’s privacy and cookies policies before using or putting your personal information on their site.

The same applies to any third-party websites or content you connect to using our products and services.

You may choose to disclose your information in certain ways such as social plug-ins (including those offered by Google, Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest) or using third-party services that allow you to post reviews or other information publicly, and a third party could use that information.

Social plug-ins and social applications are operated by the social network themselves and are subject to their own terms of use and privacy and cookies policies. You should make sure you’re familiar with these.

UNAUTHORISED THIRD PARTY ACCESS TO YOUR INFORMATION

Despite the security measures we have in place to protect your personal information (firewalls, password access and encryption methods) you acknowledge that it may be accessed by unauthorised third party through no fault of our own, e.g., as a result of an illegal activity.

In the unlikely event of such access, we will notify you, where possible, via email, SMS or using the address you have provided us within a reasonable time of such occurrence or becoming aware of such an occurrence.

FAILURE TO PROVIDE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

Should we need to collect your personal information by law or under the terms of a contract that we may have with you, and you fail to provide the personal information when requested, we may be unable to perform the contract we have or are attempting to enter into with you.

In such a case, we may have to decline to provide or receive the relevant services, and you will be notified where this is the case. 

YOUR RIGHTS

Below we set out details on how you can exercise your rights. If you have a question or cannot find the answer, please contact our Customer Services team.

Right to access personal information

You have the right to request a record or description of the personal information that we hold about you. This includes the right to request us to confirm, free of charge, whether or not we hold any personal information about you; as well as information about the categories of third parties who have, or have had, access to your personal information. To make this request as an individual or an authorised third party, please visit our PAIA Manual available on our product pages (websites) here.

Right to correct personal information

You have the right to correct information held about you if it’s not accurate, out-of-date, excessive, irrelevant, or misleading. If the information we hold about you is inaccurate or needs to be updated, you can contact our appointed administrators: O'Keeffe & Swartz -

Email: [email protected].

Tel: 082 178 00

Right to object to use of personal information

You have the right, in certain circumstances, to object to our processing your personal information. In order for us to provide you with products and services, we are required to process your personal information and as such the provision of your personal information is mandatory and you may not object to same in order to continue using our products or services.  For more information or to exercise this right, please contact our Customer Services team. If this relates to an automated decision performed on you (this means with no human involvement), please let us know and we will review your request. 

To opt out of marketing messages

If you no longer want to receive marketing messages from us, you can choose to opt out at any time. If you’ve previously opted in to receive personalised content based on how and where you use our network, you can also opt out at any time.

You can opt out in the following way :

  • Contact our appointed administrators: O'Keeffe & Swartz -

Email: [email protected].

Tel: 082 178 00

If you’re opted out of marketing, you may still receive service-related messages.

Please note: You may still receive marketing messages for up to 7 (seven) days after opting out while we update our records.

You may have received marketing from us even if you’re not a customer or have never had contact with us. This is a result of third-party marketing lists which we may acquire from time to time, stating that you have given permission to be contacted by other organisations. If you’ve registered with us to opt out of marketing from Vodacom Life Assurance Company (RF) Limited, you shouldn’t receive such communications. If you still do, we ask that you let us know immediately by contacting our Customer Care team. This will only stop marketing from us and not stop the third parties from sharing your personal information unless you contact them directly.

How to lodge a complaint

If you want to contact us about any of your rights or should you believe that we have used your personal information contrary to applicable law, you undertake to first attempt to resolve any concerns with us directly. Kindly contact our Customer Care team. We will do our best to help but if you are still unhappy, you can contact the Privacy Office at [email protected].  If you are not satisfied with such process, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Regulator at:

If you feel that the personal information we hold on you is inaccurate, or you believe we shouldn’t be processing your personal information, please contact our Customer Services team to discuss your rights. In certain circumstances, for example where you contest the accuracy of your information, or where we no longer require your information for achieving its purpose but must maintain it for purposes of proof, you have the right to ask us to restrict processing.

Right to deletion

We strive to only process and retain your personal information for as long as we need to. In certain circumstances, for example, where you indicate that your personal information is inaccurate, irrelevant, excessive, out of date, incomplete, misleading, or obtained unlawfully, you have the right to request that we erase your personal information that we hold. If you feel that we are retaining your personal information longer than we need, it is worth first checking that your contract with us has been terminated, which you can do with Customer Services. If your contract with us has been terminated, we may still have lawful grounds to process your personal information.

KEEPING YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION ACCURATE

We  take reasonably practicable steps to ensure that your personal information is complete, accurate, not misleading and up to date (having regard to the purpose for which personal information is collected or further processed).

Accordingly, we will take reasonable steps to ensure that all personal information is kept as accurate, complete and up-to-date as reasonably possible. 

We may not always expressly request you to verify and update you or your third party beneficiaries’ personal information unless this process is specifically necessary.

We, however, expects that you will notify us from time to time in writing of any updates required in respect of you or your beneficiaries’ personal information.
