Last updated: 28 October 2026
The Agricultural Technology Association of South Africa (Pty) Ltd, trading as AgTech SA, registration number 2026/730869/07 ("we", "us").

Your first name, your email address, the category you selected when you joined, your organisation if you gave it, and the date and time of your consent. If you reply to one of our emails, we keep your reply. We also record whether you open our emails and which links you click. We collect nothing else, and we never ask for financial or identity information. Giving us your details is voluntary, but without your name, email address and category we cannot add you to the waiting list.
To tell you when AgTech SA opens, to offer founding membership to those on the waiting list first, and to send you occasional related email about AgTech SA and the AgTech SA Standard. We will not use your information for any other purpose without asking you first.
If you reply to a question we ask, we use your answer to decide what AgTech SA works on first, and in related published work. We may quote it anonymously - without your name, your organisation, or anything that identifies you. We will never publish your reply alongside your name unless we ask you separately and you confirm in writing. If you would rather we did not use your reply at all, write to us and we will remove it.
Your consent, given when you ticked the box on the waiting-list page. You may withdraw it at any time and we will stop. Withdrawing does not affect anything we sent lawfully before you withdrew.
Our email is sent using Kit (kit.com, operated by Kit Inc. in the United States), and replies you send us are held in our Google Workspace mailbox (operated by Google). Both store your information on our behalf, under data processing terms that bind them to protect it and not to use it for anything else. This means your information is stored outside South Africa. By joining the waiting list you agree to this.
Until AgTech SA moves to its own Kit account, that account is held by AgTech Publications (Pty) Ltd, a separate company owned by our founder. It processes your information only on our instructions and for the purposes above.
We do not sell, rent, trade or share your information with anyone else. We will disclose it only if the law requires us to.
For as long as you are on the list, and for twelve months after you unsubscribe, so that we can show that we had your consent. After that we delete your details, except your email address on a do-not-contact list, which we keep so that we never email you again.
Our website, agtechsa.co.za, is hosted by Squarespace, which records basic visit statistics. It does not collect your name or email address.
You may ask us, free of charge, what information we hold about you; ask us to correct or delete it; object to us using it for direct marketing; and withdraw your consent. Every email we send carries a one-click unsubscribe link. Write to privacy@agtechsa.co.za and we will respond within a reasonable time.
You may complain to the Information Regulator of South Africa: JD House, 27 Stiemens Street, Braamfontein, Johannesburg, 2001 - complaints.IR@justice.gov.za - inforegulator.org.za
We hold your information on password-protected systems with two-factor authentication. No system is perfectly secure, and we will tell you promptly if your information is ever compromised. If we change this notice materially, we will email you before the change takes effect.
