Privacy Policy
Last updated 30 October 2026
It is BeNimble's policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our website. This Privacy Policy applies to www.benimble.co.za ("us", "we" or "BeNimble"). We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting personally identifiable information you may provide us through the website. This policy explains what information may be collected on our website, how we use it, and when we may disclose it to third parties. It applies only to information we collect through the website and not to information we collect from other sources.
This Privacy Policy, together with the Terms and Conditions on our website, sets out the general rules and policies for your use of our website. Depending on what you do on our website, you may be asked to agree to additional terms and conditions.
Website visitors
Like most website operators, BeNimble collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. We collect this to better understand how visitors use our website. From time to time, BeNimble may release non-personally-identifying information in aggregate, for example in a report on trends in the use of our website.
BeNimble also collects potentially personally-identifying information, such as Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, for users who sign in to the BeNimble portal. We only disclose these IP addresses under the same circumstances in which we use and disclose personally-identifying information, as described below.
Gathering of personally-identifying information
Some visitors to BeNimble's websites choose to interact with BeNimble in ways that require us to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information we gather depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask people who create a BeNimble store to provide their name, email address and contact number.
Security
The security of your personal information is important to us, but no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
Links to external sites
Our service may contain links to external sites that are not operated by us. If you click on a third-party link, you will be directed to that third party's site. We strongly advise you to review the privacy policy and terms and conditions of every site you visit.
We have no control over, and assume no responsibility for, the content, privacy policies or practices of any third-party sites, products or services.
Protection of certain personally-identifying information
BeNimble discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors and affiliated organisations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on BeNimble's behalf or to provide services available on BeNimble's website, and (ii) have agreed not to disclose it to others. Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organisations may be located outside your home country; by using BeNimble's website, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. BeNimble will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than to its employees, contractors and affiliated organisations, as described above, BeNimble discloses such information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when BeNimble believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of BeNimble, third parties or the public at large.
If you are a registered user of BeNimble and have supplied your email address, BeNimble may occasionally email you to tell you about new features, ask for your feedback, or keep you up to date with what's going on with BeNimble and our products. We primarily use our blog to communicate this type of information, so we expect to keep these emails to a minimum. If you send us a request (for example via a support email or one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request, or to help us support other users. BeNimble takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorised access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.
Aggregated statistics
BeNimble may collect statistics about the behaviour of visitors to its website. BeNimble may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, BeNimble does not disclose your personally-identifying information.
Cookies and your consent
A cookie is a small string of information that a website stores on your device and that your browser sends back to the website on each visit. We group the cookies we use into two categories:
- Strictly necessary cookies: required for the website to work (for example security, load balancing and remembering your cookie choice). These do not require consent.
- Non-essential cookies: analytics cookies (Google Analytics) that help us understand how visitors use the site, and advertising cookies (the Meta Pixel) that help us measure and improve our adverts on Facebook and Instagram. These are only set after you give consent.
In line with the Protection of Personal Information Act (POPIA), non-essential cookies stay switched off until you accept them. When you first visit our website you are shown a cookie banner where you can Accept all or Reject non-essential cookies. Until you accept, Google Analytics runs in a restricted, cookieless mode (Google Consent Mode) and does not store identifiers on your device.
You can change your decision at any time by clicking Cookie settings in our website footer, or by clearing the cookies in your browser. For details of the cookies we use and how to manage them, see our Cookie Notice. You can also set your browser to refuse cookies, though some features of the website may then not work properly.
E-commerce
People who buy BeNimble services or products are asked to provide additional information, including the personal and financial information needed to process those transactions. In each case, BeNimble collects such information only as far as is necessary or appropriate to fulfil the purpose of the interaction. BeNimble does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described above. You can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, although this may prevent you from using certain features of the website.
Business transfers
If BeNimble, or substantially all of its assets, were acquired, or in the unlikely event that BeNimble goes out of business or enters bankruptcy, user information would be one of the assets transferred to or acquired by a third party. You acknowledge that such transfers may occur, and that any acquirer of BeNimble may continue to use your personal information as set out in this policy.
Changes to this Privacy Policy
Although most changes are likely to be minor, BeNimble may change its Privacy Policy from time to time, at its sole discretion. We encourage you to check this page regularly for changes. Your continued use of this site after any change to this Privacy Policy means you accept the change.
