Security

Attacq is committed to ensuring that the User’s information is secure. In order to prevent unauthorised access or disclosure, Attacq has put in place suitable physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information it collects online.

How we use cookies

A cookie is a small file which asks permission to be placed on the User’s computer’s hard drive. Once the User agrees, the file is added, and the cookie helps analyse web traffic or lets the User know when the User visits a particular site. Cookies allow web applications to respond to the User as an individual. The web application can tailor its operations to the User’s needs, likes and dislikes by gathering and remembering information about the User’s preferences.

Attacq uses traffic log cookies to identify which pages are being used. This helps it to analyse data about webpage traffic and improve the website in order to tailor it to customer needs. Attacq only uses this information for statistical analysis purposes and then the data is removed from the system.

Overall, cookies help to provide the User with a better website, by enabling it to monitor which pages the User finds useful and which not. A cookie in no way gives Attacq access to the User’s computer or any information about the User, other than the data the User chooses to share.

The User can choose to accept or decline cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but the User can usually modify the browser setting to decline cookies if preferred. This may prevent the User from taking full advantage of the website.

Links to other websites

The website may contain links to other websites of interest. However, once the User has used these links to leave this site, the User should note that Attacq does not have any control over that other website. Therefore, Attacq cannot be responsible for the protection and privacy of any information which the User provides whilst visiting such sites, and such sites are not governed by this privacy policy. The User should exercise caution and look at the privacy statement applicable to the website in question.

How we share the information of the User

Attacq will not sell or lease a User’s personal information to third parties without the User’s permission.

Attacq may share User’s information with:

• Attacq’s affiliates, in other words, other companies in the Attacq group;
• other parties in response to legal process, laws, or when necessary to conduct or protect our legal rights;
• other parties in connection with certain business transactions (in the event that we restructure or sell any of our businesses or assets, we may disclose your personal information to the prospective buyer of such business or assets or other transacting party);
• companies that provide services to us (companies that provide services to us or act on our behalf may have access to information about you. These companies are limited in their ability to use information they receive in the course of providing services to us or you);

Retention of data

• Attacq will retain User personal information only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this privacy policy or to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our legal agreements and policies.
• We may retain other data for internal analysis purposes.

Transfer of data

• Attacq is based in and operates from South Africa. Your information, including personal information, may be transferred to, and maintained on servers located outside of your country, where the data privacy laws, regulations and standards, may not be equivalent to the laws in South Africa.
• We might transfer your personal information to places outside of South Africa and store it there, where our suppliers might process it. If that happens, we require our suppliers to apply the same standards as when we process your information in South Africa.
• Your consent to this privacy policy followed by your submission of such information to us, represents your agreement to such transfer.
• We will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your data is treated securely and in accordance with this privacy policy.
