Personal Identifiable Information

TheFrontline.co.za does not collect personally identifiable information about individuals except when such individuals specifically provide such information on a voluntary basis. 

TheFrontline.co.za is sharing personally identifiable information with Google Analytics (acting as its site traffic gathering agent for this limited purpose) for the sole purpose of gathering statistical data on visitors to the site and the pages viewed by those visitors.

TheFrontline.co.za reserves the right to perform statistical analyses of user behavior and characteristics in order to measure interest in and use of the various areas of the site and to inform advertisers of such information as well as the number of users that have been exposed to or clicked on their advertising banners. The Company will provide only aggregated data from these analyses to third parties.

TheFrontline.co.za may disclose user information in special cases when we have reason to believe that disclosing this information is necessary to identify, contact or bring legal action against someone who may be causing injury to or interference with (either intentionally or unintentionally) the IXA Media’s rights or property, our site’s users, or anyone else that could be harmed by such activities. TheFrontline.co.za may disclose user information when we believe in good faith that the law requires it.

Cookies

Users also should be aware that non-personal information and data may be automatically collected through the standard operation of the TheFrontline.co.za’s internet servers or through the use of “cookies.” Cookies are small text files a web site can use to recognize repeat users, facilitate the user’s ongoing access to and use of the site and allow a site to track usage behavior and compile aggregate data that will allow content improvements and targeted advertising. Cookies are not programs that come onto a user’s system and damage files. Generally, cookies work by assigning a unique number to the user that has no meaning outside the assigning site. Users should be aware that TheFrontline.co.za cannot or does not control the use of cookies or the resulting information by advertisers or third parties hosting data for the TheFrontline.co.za. If a user does not want information collected through the use of cookies, there is a simple procedure in most browsers that allows the user to deny or accept the cookie feature; however, users should note that cookies may be necessary to provide the user with certain features (e.g., customized delivery of information) available on TheFrontline.co.za’s site.

As our Company is headquartered in South Africa, we adhere most closely with applicable national laws. We do, however, value our non-SA users. The Company has implemented policies to adhere to the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) which includes strict data protection principles that organizations must follow in order to protect the personal information they collect about their clients or people who visit their websites. While many rules and actions may be the same in South Africa and the European Union, there may be specific instances of policy differences.
