Privacy Policy

Consent 

By visiting our website (www.sportsboom.co.za), you must accept the terms and conditions described in this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to these terms and conditions, then this site isn’t for you. 

Purpose 

This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use and disclose the personal information you provide us when you use the website and how this personal information can be accessed and deleted when necessary. This Privacy Policy also explains what non-personal information we collect from you when you are using the website. 

Scope 

This Privacy Policy applies to the website only. 

The Website contains many references or links to other websites which are owned and operated by third parties (such as commercial partners or social media platforms). These third-party websites are not covered by this Privacy Policy. We accept no responsibility or liability in respect of these third-party websites. We, therefore, encourage you to review and understand the privacy policies published on any third websites you may access through the website before using or submitting any information to them. 

What personal information we collect from you 

Generally, you can browse our website and search through our featured items without revealing personal information about yourself. 

However, we may collect personal information from you in the following situations: 

We collect information on the products and services that you have purchased through the Website. 

If you request information or if you have any issues related to our products or services, you can send us a request through our contact form. You will be asked to select the appropriate department (General Inquiries, Billing Department, Account Management, Sponsorships) and to provide us with personal information enabling us to provide our support services to you. 

If you interact with us by sending comments or suggestions or by posting or sharing content on social media platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Reddit, we may collect personal information such as your opinion, interests, preferences and degree of satisfaction with our products and services. 

If you send us your application for a position, we will collect your email address and the content of your email, including any attached files such as your resume and reference letter. Depending on the skills necessary to perform the job, we may also collect other personal information, such as your portfolio or code samples. 

If you choose not to provide the mandatory information required by us to fulfil a service you have chosen, we may not be able to respond to your request. 

How we use your personal information 

We use your personal information mainly: 

To answer your questions and follow up with your support queries. 

To understand your interests, preferences, and satisfaction with our products and services. 

To prevent, detect, and investigate any violations of our Privacy Policy or Terms and Conditions, as well as fraud or other illegal activities. 

To share updates about our products and services, as allowed by law. 

Disclosure of personal information to Third Parties 

We do not sell, rent or lease any personal information on our online users to third parties. 

We do not disclose your information to third parties without your explicit consent except for the following purposes: 

We may share your personal information with our service providers if it’s needed for them to perform their duties or fulfil their contracts. For example, we provide your details to payment processors to ensure your payments are handled securely. 

Information may be shared with another company as part of a potential business transaction to help both parties determine whether to proceed. This typically happens during the due diligence process. Once a business transaction is finalised, information may also be shared with the involved company to support ongoing operations. A "business transaction" can include various activities, such as reorganisations, mergers, acquisitions, sales, or the transfer of a company or its assets. 

We share information only when it’s necessary to comply with applicable laws, regulations, legal requests, or court orders, or in situations where the law allows it.
