Privacy Policy

KMBFS Accountants & Tax Practitioners ("KMBFS", "we", "us") is committed to protecting the privacy and security of your personal information. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, store, and disclose personal information in compliance with the Protection of Personal Information Act, 2013 (POPIA) and the Promotion of Access to Information Act, 2000 (PAIA).

We collect personal information that you provide directly to us when you request a service, submit a service request, register on the client portal, or contact us. This may include your full name, email address, phone number, company name, CIPC company registration details, identity or directorship information, and supporting documents such as registration certificates and tax-related records.

We use your personal information to process service requests, prepare quotes, deliver engagements, communicate with you, comply with legal and regulatory obligations (including SARS, CIPC, and the Compensation Fund), maintain accounting and tax records, and prevent fraud. We do not sell your personal information to third parties.

We process your personal information on the basis of the consent you provide when submitting a request, the performance of a contract for the services you engage, and our compliance with legal obligations. You may withdraw consent or request correction of your information at any time, subject to records we are legally required to retain.

We may share your personal information with statutory and regulatory bodies where legally required (for example SARS, CIPC, the Compensation Fund, and the Companies Tribunal), and with trusted service providers who assist us in delivering services under appropriate confidentiality obligations. Such parties process your information only for the purposes we instruct.

We apply reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your personal information against unauthorised access, loss, or misuse. We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected and to meet legal, tax, and regulatory retention requirements.

You have the right to access, correct, or request deletion of your personal information, to object to certain processing, and to withdraw consent. To exercise these rights, contact us through the contact form on this website. We will respond in accordance with POPIA and PAIA.

This website may use essential cookies and analytics to operate and improve the service. We do not use your personal information for direct marketing without your consent.
