We ask for as little as possible, we tell you plainly what we do with it, and we never sell it. This policy explains how we handle your personal information under POPIA.
Last updated: 10 August 2026
Kingdom Scribe Publishing is the responsible party for your personal information as defined in the Protection of Personal Information Act 4 of 2013 (POPIA).
| When you… | We collect | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Place an order | Name, email, phone, delivery address, order details | To process, deliver and account for your order |
| Download a free chapter or join the reader list | Name and email | To send you the resource and, with your consent, occasional news |
| Use the contact form | Name, email, message | To reply to you |
| Submit a manuscript | Name, contact details, and the material you send | To assess your submission and respond |
We never see or store your card, bank or payment details. Payment is handled entirely on Payfast's secure platform. We also do not collect special personal information, and we do not knowingly collect information from children.
We use your information only for the purpose you gave it to us: fulfilling orders, delivering resources you asked for, replying to you, and — if you opted in — sending occasional news about new titles and free material. We do not use it for automated decision-making or profiling.
We do not sell, rent or trade your personal information. We share it only where necessary to do what you asked:
Order, enquiry and submission records are stored on our hosting account in South Africa, in files that are not publicly accessible. We keep order records for as long as required by tax and accounting law (generally five years), and reader-list details until you unsubscribe. Manuscript submissions are kept only as long as needed to assess and respond to them.
This site is served over an encrypted HTTPS connection. Order and subscriber files are blocked from public web access at server level, and access to our systems is restricted to those who need it. No system is perfect, but if a breach ever affected your information, we would notify you and the Information Regulator as POPIA requires.
This website uses no advertising cookies and no third-party tracking or analytics. Your basket is stored locally in your own browser and never leaves your device until you place an order. Fonts are loaded from Google Fonts, which may log a standard web request.
Under POPIA you may, at any time:
To exercise any of these, email . We respond within a reasonable time, and at no charge.
If we change how we handle personal information, we will update this page and the date above.
