POPIA Compliance Framework and Monitoring System
The Protection of Personal Information Act is technical and complex, it requires a wide range of technical and organisational measures to be implemented to protect the rights of natural and juristic persons to privacy. To ensure compliance, the Information Regulator requires all organisations to develop and implement a compliance framework so that they can effectively monitor the protection afforded natural and juristic persons.
A functionally rich POPIA Compliance Framework and Monitoring System supports small and large organisations effectively and efficiently achieve POPIA compliance. It enables organisations to jump start their POPIA programme by implementing an international standards-based POPIA compliance framework.

POPI Training Courses
The Protection of Personal Information Act requires all public and private bodies to ensure that how they use personal information is lawful, that there are systems in place for the protection of personal information, and there are processes for handling requests from the Information Regulator and affected individuals (i.e. data subjects). A range of POPI courses are now available, presented by knowledgeable and experienced POPI specialists.
Tools for the information officer
The Regulations relating to the protection of personal information require information officers to ensure that internal measures are developed together with adequate systems to process requests for information or access thereto.
GDPR and POPIA
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is the European Union's data protection legislation. It applies to organisations located within the EU and organisations located outside of the EU if they offer goods or services to, or monitor the behaviour of, EU data subjects. It applies to all companies processing and holding the personal data of data subjects residing in the European Union, regardless of the company’s location. In most respects it is similar to the Protection of Personal Information Act (POPIA), however it does not apply to juristic persons. In South African juristic persons are afforded data protection similar to that for natural persons.
Regulations of the Information Regulator
The Information Regulator has issued Regulations relating to the protection of personal information. These Regulations clarify some of the requirements of the Protection of Personal Information Act and add further obligations related to the processing of personal information.
