Privacy Policy
I am committed to safeguarding the privacy of my website visitors in line with the requirements of the South African Protection of Personal Information (PoPI) Act ( Act 4 of 2013). The principles of the PoPI Act are well aligned with privacy laws internationally, and it is similar to the European Data Protection Directive (EU DPD) with negligible variations in terminology. This policy sets out how I will treat your personal information.
The information I collect
I may collect, store and use the following kinds of personal data:
-
information about your visits to and use of this website

information regarding transactions between you and me or in relation to this website, including information relating to any purchases of my artwork.

Information about website visits
I may collect information about your computer and your visits to this website such as your IP address, geographical location, browser type, referral source, length of visit and number of page views. I may use this information in the administration of this website, to improve the website's usability and for marketing purposes.
This website uses neccessary cookies. A cookie is a text file sent by a webserver to a web browser and stored by the browser. The text file is then sent back to the sever each time the browser requests a page from the server. This enables the web server to identify and track the web browser. I may use the information I obtain from the cookie in the administration of this website. Most browsers allow you to refuse to collect cookies. This will, however, have a negative impact upon the usability of many websites, including this one.

I will not without your express consent provide your personal information to any third party for the purpose of direct marketing.
Other disclosures

Except as provided in this privacy policy, I will not provide your information to third parties.
Security of your personal data
I will take reasonable precautions a to prevent the loss, misuse or alteration of your personal information. Data transmission over the public internet is inherently insecure and I cannot guarantee the security of data sent over the internet.
