What Do I Get From online PoPI?

onlinePoPI is here to help you understand the Protection of Personal Information Act and to ensure your entity is PoPI Compliant - with the goal of preventing misuse of Personal Information and mitigating potential prosecution.

The PoPI Act (Section 55 & Regulation 4) requires that a Compliance Framework is implemented and that a Personal Impact Assessment is done - onlinePoPI provides this.

Additionally the PoPI Act (Regulation 4) requires that the Information Officer conducts internal awareness and training around the Protection of Personal Information - the onlinePoPI tool and supplementary videos and articles will help the Information Officer accomplish this.

onlinePoPI will continuously be updated with new features, documents and amendments as there are changes to the PoPI Act, ensuring that you are always up to date with your PoPI Compliance goals.

Being PoPI Compliant is a continous process and onlinePoPI is here to help you on your journey.
