Privacy Policy
This page explains what information captinvestza.com collects about you, why it does so, and where that information goes.
Platforms of the sponsorInformation This Site Collects
When you read this site, the simplest situation is this: you want to know how the broker is being reviewed, and you would like to understand what happens to any information you leave behind. This site collects only what is needed to run and measure an editorial resource. That includes the pages you visit, the approximate region your connection comes from, the device and browser type, and the time of your visit. If you use the contact form on this site, the site receives what you type into it, such as your message and the reply details you choose to give.
The site does not collect trading account details, deposit information, payment card numbers, or identity documents. It does not ask for your capital, your portfolio, or your broker login. It is not the broker and has no access to any broker account. It does not provide financial services, accounts, deposits or advice, so it has no reason to hold that kind of information and does not set out to gather it.
Why Processing Happens
The legal basis for processing is the ordinary one that applies to a publisher. Technical data is processed because the site has a legitimate interest in keeping the pages available, secure and working, and in understanding which reviews readers find useful. Contact form messages are processed because you asked the site to receive and answer them, and because the site has a legitimate interest in handling reader correspondence.
Where the law requires consent for a particular measurement tool, the site asks for it before that tool runs and you can decline without losing access to the reviews. No processing here depends on you handing over sensitive information, and none of it is used to make automated decisions about you or to build a profile for sale.
How Long Records Are Kept
Records are kept only as long as they serve the purpose described on this page. Routine technical logs, such as server access records, are kept for a short period and then removed or reduced to aggregated figures. Aggregated measurement data, which no longer identifies a person, may be kept for longer because it supports the editorial record of how the site is used.
Contact form messages are kept for as long as needed to deal with your enquiry and any follow-up, and then deleted. If a message becomes part of an editorial correction or complaint record, it may be kept for the period needed to document that matter. When the retention period ends, the record is deleted or anonymised.
Where Data Is Held
The site is run from servers and services that may sit outside South Africa, and recipients involved in hosting, security and measurement may be located in other countries. That means your information can be transferred across borders. Where that happens, the site relies on appropriate safeguards for the transfer and keeps the number of recipients small.
Access is limited to those who need it to host the site, keep it secure, measure its use, or answer reader messages. These recipients act on the site's instructions and are not permitted to use the information for their own purposes.
Analytics And Measurement
The site uses measurement to understand which pages are read and how readers move through the reviews. This is done through aggregated statistics: counts of visits, pages viewed, and general device or region categories. The aim is editorial, so that weak pages can be improved and errors found. Aggregated figures do not identify you.
Where a measurement tool relies on cookies or similar storage, the site explains this at the point where the choice is offered, and you can refuse. Refusing measurement does not block the reviews. The site does not use measurement to follow you around other websites for advertising, and it does not sell measurement results to anyone.
Sharing, Children And Contact
Information is shared only with the service providers that host the site, keep it secure, measure its use in aggregate, and handle contact form messages. It is never sold, rented or traded to advertisers, data brokers, or any other broker, platform or partner, and it is not passed on for others to market to you. It may be disclosed where the law requires it or where needed to protect the site and its readers.
This site is written for adults in South Africa. It is not intended for children, and the site does not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. If you believe a child has sent information through the contact form, use the contact form on this site to ask for it to be removed.
For any question about this policy, a request to see, correct or delete what the site holds about you, or a complaint, use the contact form on this site and describe what you need. Requests are handled within a reasonable period, and you may also raise a concern with the South African information regulator.
