1. Introduction

Mind Legacies (Pty) Ltd, registration number 2025/852961/07 ("Mind Legacies," "we," "us," or "our"), is a South African central intelligence holding company. This policy explains how we collect, use, share, and protect personal information when you visit this website or interact with us, our subsidiaries (SYNAPSIS, MindWorks Technologies, and AfroNovari), or their sub-pages.

We process personal information in accordance with the Protection of Personal Information Act, 2013 (POPIA), and other applicable South African law.

2. Information We Collect

We collect information in a few limited ways:

  • Information you give us directly: your name, email address, and any details you share when you contact us, request a Discovery Session, apply for an Executive-in-Residence or Founding Partnership role, or otherwise reach out through the website.
  • Information collected automatically: basic technical information such as browser type, device type, and general usage patterns, which helps us understand how the site is used and keep it running well.

We do not knowingly collect sensitive personal information, and we ask that you not include sensitive details in any message you send us unless it is strictly necessary.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Respond to your enquiries, applications, and requests for a Discovery Session or partnership;
  • Operate, maintain, and improve this website and the products described on it;
  • Communicate with you about Mind Legacies, SYNAPSIS, MindWorks Technologies, or AfroNovari where you have asked to hear from us;
  • Meet our legal, regulatory, and governance obligations.

4. Sharing of Information

We do not sell personal information. We may share information within the Mind Legacies group of companies, including SYNAPSIS, MindWorks Technologies, and AfroNovari, where necessary to respond to your request. We may also share information with service providers who help us operate this website (for example, hosting or email delivery), under obligations to keep it confidential and secure. We will only disclose personal information beyond this where required by law.

5. Data Security

We take reasonable technical and organisational steps to protect the personal information we hold against loss, misuse, unauthorised access, and disclosure. No system is completely secure, but we work to keep the information you share with us appropriately protected.

6. Your Rights

Under POPIA, you have the right to:

  • Ask us what personal information we hold about you;
  • Request that we correct or update inaccurate information;
  • Request that we delete personal information we no longer have a valid reason to keep;
  • Object to certain uses of your personal information;

7. Cookies and Similar Technology

This website may use minimal, essential technology to keep it functioning correctly. If we introduce analytics or non-essential cookies in the future, we will update this policy accordingly.

8. Children's Privacy

This website is not directed at children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
