Privacy Policy

Who we are

This website, georgemulaudzi.com, is run by George Mulaudzi, Sandton, Johannesburg (the "responsible party" under the Protection of Personal Information Act, 2013, or POPIA). Questions about this policy can be sent to george@georgemulaudzi.com.

What we collect

We collect only what you choose to give us when you send an enquiry: your name, email address, optional phone number, the painting you are asking about, and your message. If you contact us on WhatsApp, by phone or by email, we receive the details you share in that conversation.

Why we collect it

We use your details only to reply to your enquiry, to discuss availability, viewings and purchases, and to keep a record of that conversation. We do not use them for marketing unless you ask us to, and we do not sell or rent personal information.

Our basis for using it

We rely on your consent, which you give by ticking the box on the enquiry form, and on what is needed to respond to your request or conclude a sale.

Who sees it

Your enquiry is delivered by email to George Mulaudzi. It passes through our website host and email provider, which process it on our behalf. Those providers may store data on servers outside South Africa. We take reasonable steps to make sure they protect it. We share personal information with others only where the law requires it.

How long we keep it

We keep enquiries for as long as needed to deal with your request and any resulting sale, and delete them when they are no longer needed.

Cookies and tracking

This website does not use advertising or analytics cookies. The adult gallery remembers, for your current browser session only, that you confirmed you are 18 or older. Fonts are served from this website, so no visitor details are sent to Google or other font providers.

Adult gallery

The Adult Gallery contains artworks with nudity and is for visitors aged 18 and over. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Your rights

Under POPIA you may ask us to confirm what personal information we hold about you, to correct or delete it, and to stop using it. You may also withdraw your consent at any time. Email george@georgemulaudzi.com and we will respond. If you are unhappy with how we handle your information, you may complain to the Information Regulator (South Africa) at inforegulator.org.za.

Security

We take reasonable technical and organisational steps to protect personal information from loss, misuse and unauthorised access. No internet transmission is completely secure, so please do not send sensitive details in an enquiry.

Changes

We may update this policy and will change the date above when we do.
