Privacy Policy
Last updated: 11 October 2026
This policy explains what personal information Wilma Ewest Incorporated collects through this website, why, who it is shared with, and what you may ask us to do with it, in line with the Protection of Personal Information Act, 2013 (POPIA). It covers information collected through this website.
Who is responsible for your information
Wilma Ewest Incorporated, trading as Wilma Ewest Attorneys, of 658 Trichardts Road, Beyers Park, Boksburg, 1459, is the responsible party for personal information collected through this website.
Information Officer: Wilma Ewest, info@wilmaewestatt.co.za, 011 894 4267. Contact her about anything in this policy.
What we collect, and why
- The contact form. Your name, email address and your message, so that we can answer you. It reaches us as an email and is not stored on this website.
- Comments on our articles. Your name, email address and comment. They are sent privately to us by email and are not published on the site or stored on it.
- How the site is used. Only if you accept cookies: the pages you view, how you arrived, your device and browser type, and an approximate location from your IP address, through Google Analytics and Microsoft Clarity. Clarity records anonymised sessions (clicks and scrolling) and masks what you type into forms.
- Technical records. Our hosting provider keeps short-lived server logs (such as IP addresses and the pages requested) to run the site securely.
Cookies
Analytics cookies (Google Analytics and Microsoft Clarity) load only after you choose “Accept all” on the cookie banner. If you choose essential only, they never load. Your choice is remembered in your browser; clear this site's data to choose again.
Who we share it with
We do not sell personal information or share it for anybody else's marketing. We use these service providers, each of which processes it only to provide its service to us:
- Resend: delivers the contact-form and comment emails to us.
- Vercel: hosts this website.
- Google: Google Analytics, only with your consent.
- Microsoft: Microsoft Clarity, only with your consent.
Information sent outside South Africa
Some of these providers process information on servers outside South Africa. We use providers that are bound by recognised data-protection laws and agreements, so that your information receives protection comparable to POPIA.
How long we keep it
We keep what you send us through this website only for as long as we need it to deal with your enquiry, or for as long as the law requires us to keep it, and then delete it.
Your rights
You may ask what personal information we hold about you, ask us to correct it, ask us to delete it where we are not legally required to keep it, and object to its use or withdraw your consent. Write to the Information Officer above. If you are not satisfied with our answer, you may complain to the Information Regulator (South Africa) at inforegulator.org.za or POPIAComplaints@inforegulator.org.za.
