In terms of the Protection of Personal Information Act, No 4 of 2012 (POPI), which comes into effect on 1 July 2021, all private and public bodies processing personal information, are required to have implemented policies and procedures in order to be compliant.
Nicol, Davis & Associates (NDA) has, therefore put the necessary policies, proceedings and safeguards in place to be compliant with the conditions, as stipulated in POPI for lawful processing.
NDA has appointed an Information Officer and Deputy as prescribed by POPI, who have overseen the implementation of POPI.
NDA will only collect and process personal information pertaining to the debt handed over.
As a company we are already fully compliant in the protection of personal information as we adhere to the Debt Council of South Africa’s Code of Conduct which is promulgated in terms of section 14 of the Debt Collector’s Act 1998 (Act 114 of 1998).
