1. POPIA Data Processing Scope & Consent Framework

In strict compliance with the Protection of Personal Information Act (POPIA), Act No. 4 of 2013 of South Africa, GameLevel collects, processes, and stores personal user data exclusively to facilitate transaction execution, nationwide courier logistics coordination, and direct technician booking communication. By submitting a checkout ledger or an intake ticket, the client grants explicit consent to process the following data vectors: Full Name, Delivery Address, Email Node, and Mobile Contact Coordinates.

2. Third-Party Data Disclosures (Logistics & Payments)

GameLevel enforces absolute data isolation protocols. User personal information is never sold, traded, or leased to third-party marketing brokers. Data sharing is limited strictly to authorized operations infrastructure partners required to fulfill your request:

• Logistics Transit Nodes: Shipping data fields are shared with verified courier networks (such as The Courier Guy) solely to generate automated airway bills and physical door-to-door transit routes.
• Financial Processing Core: Credit card and banking credentials are never processed or stored on GameLevel servers. All financial transactions happen inside encrypted merchant payment gateways (including PayFast, Yoco, or Peach Payments).

3. Information Security Matrices & Retention Pools

GameLevel utilizes specialized server-side encryption layers, firewall architectures, and database access authorization controls to eliminate data leak risks. Client data pools are retained only for the duration required to complete workshop operations cycles, fulfill legal warranty tracking timelines, or satisfy South African Revenue Service (SARS) accounting records retention laws.
