TRUST CENTRE
We strive to provide software services you can trust.
Welcome to our trust centre. Getting legal and compliance right is an important part of that. We believe that understandable terms, policies or legal notices help to ensure a common understanding and are the foundation of a mutually beneficial relationship. In order to build trust, we want our policies on certain important issues to be clear.

Privacy and data protection at Umbani Software is important
We take our obligations under data protection laws (like the GDPR and POPIA) seriously and continually strive to meet our regulatory obligations. We strive to process personal data lawfully in accordance with applicable principles and conditions. We process some personal data about our clients as a controller (responsible party) when we provide software services to them. Our privacy policy sets out how we process your personal information. We process personal data regarding our clients’ as data subjects on behalf of our clients. We are therefore often a processor (or operator) for our clients. For this reason, we have a data processing agreement (DPA) with our clients that forms part of our standard contracts and agreements. The GDPR does not require us to have a data protection officer (DPO). Under POPIA, Mary-Anne Horn is our Information Officer (IO).
We secure the information we process and keep it confidential.
We know how important confidentiality and privilege is to you. We won’t disclose your confidential information. We take adequate and appropriate measures to secure all the information we process. Some of the information we process is confidential or commercially sensitive. As a software development company that focusses on data analysis, confidentiality and the protection of intellectual property are issues that are taken very seriously. Our security policy sets out how we safeguard our website and your personal information. We are happy to sign a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) with you, even though our agreements include that we keep your information confidential.
Access to information ensures accountability and transparency.
We also respect that the law (like PAIA) requires us to give certain people access to information in certain circumstances. You can request access to information we hold by emailing us. Mary-Anne Horn is also our Information Officer for the purposes of PAIA.
We’re anti-bribery and corruption.
We recognise that all organisations have a responsibility to be ethical in their business practices and not engage in any activities that harm society. We have an Anti Bribery and Corruption Policy setting out our policy on this important issue.
Managing both your and our risk.
We continually strive to manage both our risks and the risks of our clients. For example, we have both public liability and professional indemnity insurance.
We take compliance seriously.
We are committed to complying with all laws, rules, codes and standards that apply to Umbani Software. We take our responsibility to comply seriously.
