Privacy Policy
Click Genius ("we", "us" or "our") is committed to protecting the privacy of visitors to our website and clients of our services. This privacy policy explains how we collect, use and protect your personal information, and is governed by the South African Protection of Personal Information Act, 2013 ("POPIA").
Information we collect
We collect personal information that you voluntarily provide to us when you:
- Fill in a contact, audit request or strategy call form on our website
- Email us, call us, or message us via WhatsApp
- Become a client and provide business information necessary to deliver services
- Subscribe to any newsletter or insights communication we may offer
The information we collect typically includes your name, email address, phone number, company name, website URL, monthly marketing budget, and the goals you describe in messages to us.
We also collect technical information automatically when you visit our website, including your IP address, browser type, device information, pages visited and time spent, via cookies and analytics tools such as Google Analytics.
How we use your information
We use your personal information for the following purposes:
- To respond to enquiries and deliver requested audits or strategy calls
- To provide the marketing services you have engaged us for
- To send service updates, reports and communication related to active engagements
- To improve our website, services and content based on aggregate usage data
- To comply with our legal and contractual obligations
Sharing your information
We do not sell your personal information. We only share information with third parties in the following limited circumstances:
- With trusted service providers (such as email, analytics, CRM and hosting providers) under appropriate data processing agreements
- Where legally required by South African law or court order
- To protect our rights, property or safety, or that of our clients
How we protect your information
We apply reasonable technical and organisational safeguards designed to protect personal information against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure or destruction. Access to client data is restricted to staff members who require it to perform their role.
Spam protection (Google reCAPTCHA)
The forms on our website use Google reCAPTCHA v3 to tell real people apart from automated spam. When you start filling in a form, reCAPTCHA collects information such as your IP address, browser and device details, and how you interact with the page, and sends it to Google. Google returns a score to us, which we use only to decide whether a submission is spam. Submissions flagged as likely spam are not passed to our team, but are kept in a private log so a genuine enquiry can still be recovered. Google processes this information under its own Privacy Policy and Terms of Service, and may process it outside South Africa.
Your rights under POPIA
You have the right to:
- Access the personal information we hold about you
- Request correction of inaccurate information
- Request deletion of your personal information (subject to legal/contractual retention obligations)
- Object to the processing of your personal information
- Lodge a complaint with the Information Regulator of South Africa
To exercise any of these rights, email info@clickgenius.co.za.
Cookies
Our website uses cookies to remember preferences, analyse traffic and improve user experience. You can control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect parts of the site experience.
Retention
We retain personal information only for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by applicable law (typically up to five years after the end of a client relationship for accounting and legal compliance purposes).
