Privacy Policy

Last updated: 12 November 2026

This notice describes the current features of PurpleFlyTrading. The site publishes editorial information about mobile gambling and related topics in South Africa. It does not provide gambling accounts, accept wagers, hold player balances or process gambling deposits or withdrawals.

Who is responsible for personal information

PurpleFlyTrading is the publication name used for this website. In this notice, the name refers to the person or entity operating the website and acting as the responsible party for personal information handled through it. Privacy requests can be sent to the email address above.

Information processed when you visit

When your browser requests a page or image, the hosting and network systems that deliver the site may process technical request information. This can include your IP address, the date and time of the request, the page or file requested, the referring page, browser and device information, and error or security events. These details are used to deliver pages, diagnose faults and protect the service from abuse. The hosting provider may create and retain operational logs under its own infrastructure and retention settings; the site publisher may not control or have access to every provider-side record.

Reading an article does not require an account, a date of birth, a gambling profile or payment details. The website does not use visitor information to determine gambling eligibility or make automated decisions about you.

Contact form and email

The contact form runs in your browser. It reads the name, email address and message you enter and prepares a draft in your email application. The form does not upload those fields to the website server. The information is sent only if you choose to send the draft; your email, device and mail-service providers may then process it. If you do not send it, the site does not receive the form message through this form.

If you email the editorial desk, we receive the address and message you choose to include. We use them to respond, address the enquiry or privacy request, and keep a limited record where reasonably needed for security, continuity or legal obligations. Do not send passwords, payment card details, identity documents or other sensitive information by ordinary email unless we explain why it is necessary and provide a suitable method.

Providing your name, email address and message is voluntary. Without a working reply address and enough information to understand your request, we may be unable to respond. The site does not require identity documents for routine browsing or general enquiries.

Purposes and lawful grounds

Personal information is used only as needed to deliver and secure the website, diagnose technical problems, respond to a message you initiate, keep necessary correspondence records, comply with legal duties, or establish, exercise or defend legal rights. Depending on the circumstances, processing relies on a lawful basis permitted by the Protection of Personal Information Act 4 of 2013 (POPIA), such as your request or consent, a legal obligation, or another justification available under the Act.

We do not sell personal information, build advertising profiles from site visits, or use enquiry details to send unsolicited email marketing. The site has no newsletter sign-up.

Cookies, analytics and similar technologies

The current website code does not set analytics or advertising cookies, use browser storage to build visitor profiles, or include advertising pixels or embedded third-party media. Your browser may cache site files for ordinary page loading. Hosting or network providers may use technical measures needed to deliver or secure their services; their handling of provider-side data is governed by their own terms. This notice will be revised if the site adds features that materially change these practices.

Service providers, disclosures and external sites

Hosting, network-security and email providers may process information needed to deliver their services. We may disclose information to a regulator, court, law-enforcement body or other recipient where applicable law requires or permits it, or where reasonably necessary to protect rights and address security or legal claims. We do not otherwise provide enquiry information to third parties for their own marketing.

Editorial pages may mention or display addresses for external websites. Those sites are operated independently and have their own privacy practices. This notice does not cover information you provide to them after you choose to visit or contact them.

Processing outside South Africa

Hosting or email providers may store or process information in countries other than South Africa. The precise location depends on the provider's infrastructure. Where personal information is transferred outside South Africa by or for the responsible party, the transfer must meet the requirements of section 72 of POPIA.

Retention

Enquiry emails are kept only while reasonably needed to respond, maintain continuity, resolve a dispute or meet a legal or security requirement, after which they are deleted or securely disposed of when practicable. Technical logs are retained according to the hosting or network provider's configuration and applicable requirements. Backups and provider records may take longer to expire from systems outside the publisher's direct control.

Security

Reasonable technical and organisational measures are used to protect information within the publisher's control. No website, internet connection or email system can be guaranteed completely secure. If a security compromise affecting personal information occurs, it will be assessed and handled, including notification to the Information Regulator and affected data subjects where required by section 22 of POPIA.

Your rights and how to make a request

Subject to applicable law, you may ask whether we hold personal information about you, request access to it, ask for correction or deletion, object to certain processing, and withdraw consent where consent is the basis for processing. You may also lodge a complaint with the Information Regulator. These rights are subject to the limits and procedures set by law.

Email correspondence@purpleflytrading.co.za with "Privacy request" in the subject and describe the information or request. We may ask for information reasonably needed to verify your identity and locate the record. Please do not attach identity documents unless they are necessary; if verification is needed, we will request only what is proportionate. We will respond within the time required by applicable law.

You may contact the Information Regulator of South Africa using its POPIA complaints page (https://inforegulator.org.za/complaints/) or POPIAComplaints@inforegulator.org.za. For the legislation, see the Protection of Personal Information Act 4 of 2013 (https://www.justice.gov.za/legislation/acts/2013-004.pdf).

Children and age-related content

The site publishes gambling-related material intended for adults aged 18 or older and is not directed at children. The site does not ask visitors to provide a date of birth or create an account. If you believe a child has sent personal information to the editorial desk, contact us so we can review and address it in accordance with applicable law.

Changes to this notice

This notice describes the site features currently in use and may be updated when those features or legal requirements change. The revised date at the top of this page shows when the notice was last reviewed. Nothing in this notice removes rights or obligations that apply under POPIA or other applicable law.
