POPIA statement

The Aisle processes personal information to operate a wedding venue marketplace in South Africa. The public launch version must include the responsible party name, registered details and privacy contact before production.

Personal information can include names, email addresses, phone numbers, profile details, venue claim details, company names, enquiry content, message content, quote details, booking records, saved venues and technical security logs.

Public venue data can include business contact details, addresses, photos, ratings and review counts where they are part of a public venue listing.

Processing is limited to marketplace operation: account access, venue discovery, venue claims, enquiries, messaging, quote generation, quote acceptance, booking records, security, support and data-quality correction.

The product should ask only for the data needed for a venue decision. If a value is not needed for discovery, matching, enquiry, quote, booking or account security, it should not be collected.

Users may ask for access to their personal information, correction of inaccurate information, deletion where retention is no longer justified, or objection to processing where POPIA allows it.

Venue managers can correct claimed venue data in the dashboard. Couples can control what they send to venues and can remove saved venues from their own account.

The Information Regulator of South Africa monitors and enforces POPIA and PAIA. Its public website is `https://inforegulator.org.za/` and its eServices portal is `https://eservices.inforegulator.org.za/`.
