How you can manage cookies

Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through browser settings. To find out more about cookies, including how to see what cookies have been set on your browser, visit www.aboutcookies.org or www.allaboutcookies.org.

When you share information with us, you are sharing information with all companies in the Pragma Group. The Pragma Group includes:

  • Pragma Holdings (Pty) Ltd
  • Pragma Africa (Pty) Ltd trading as Asset Management Services and Advisory and Academy
  • Pragma Products (Pty) Ltd trading as On Key Software Solutions
  • Machine Reliability Engineering

We store personal information in South Africa and the Netherlands.

We use suppliers, service providers and contractors that we trust, to help us run our business. They have agreed to keep your personal information secure and confidential, and to only use your personal information for the purposes that we shared it with them.

Some of the service providers and contractors we use may be located in countries outside South Africa and the European Union. These countries may not have the same levels of protection of personal information as South Africa and the European Union. In this case, those service providers and contractors must undertake to protect your personal information to the same level that we do.

Sometimes the law requires that we share your personal information, for instance to comply with tax and employment laws.

We only keep your information for as long as we must for operational reasons, or for as long as the law requires.

We have reasonable security measures in place to protect your personal information from:

  • being lost;
  • being used in the wrong way or for the wrong reason;
  • being accessed without authorisation;
  • being changed; and
  • being destroyed.

The more sensitive the information is, the better we protect it.

However, no system is perfect, and we cannot guarantee that we will never experience a breach of any of our physical, technical, or managerial safeguards, that is why we check our systems regularly for security issues.

If something should happen, we have taken steps to minimise the threat to your privacy, and we will let you know if your personal information has been compromised. We will also let you know how you can help minimise the impact of the breach.

If you suspect that we (or you) have had a security breach, please let us know immediately by sending an email to: Information.Officer@pragmaworld.net. Please include as much information as you can about what has happened.

You have the right to:

  • ask what we know about you;
  • ask what personal information we sent to our suppliers, service providers, or anyone else;
  • ask us to update, correct or delete any out-of-date or incorrect personal information we hold about you;
  • unsubscribe from any direct marketing we may send you;
  • object to our use of your personal information;
  • ask us to restrict our processing of your personal information; and
  • reuse your personal information for your own purposes across different services, also known as the right to data portability.

It can take us up to 21 days to respond to your request because there are procedures that we must follow. In some instances, we may ask you for proof of your identity or a valid proof of residence.

If you live in the European Union, you have the right to complain to a supervisory authority in the Member State where you live or work, or where a data protection law infringement occurred. If you live in South Africa, you have the right to complain to the Information Regulator.

If you have any questions, please get in touch with us at information.officer@pragmaworld.net.
