Terms of use

The terms on which this website is made available. Please read them before using the site.

Last updated 15 July 2026.

This website is operated by Trio-Data Special Services (Pty) Ltd (company registration 2013/068495/07), Unit 1, Canel Edge 3, Fountain Road, Tyger Waterfront, Bellville, 7530, South Africa. In these terms, "we", "us" and "our" mean Trio-Data Special Services (Pty) Ltd, and "you" means anyone using this website. By using this website you agree to these terms. If you do not agree with them, please do not use the site.

The content here is general information, not advice

Everything published on this website - including the articles, guides, frameworks and downloadable documents - is general information about our field. It is not legal advice, and it is not advice on your specific situation. Every matter turns on its own facts. Do not act, or decide not to act, on the strength of anything here alone. If a matter affects you, take advice on it, and speak to us directly so we can look at the actual circumstances.

Where we cite a statute, a regulator or a published study, we do so as at the date of writing. Law and published data change. We do not undertake to keep every page current.

Use of the site

  • Use this site lawfully, and not in a way that restricts or inhibits anyone else's use of it.
  • Do not attempt to gain unauthorised access to the site, its server, or any connected system.
  • Do not scrape, harvest or systematically extract content from the site for republication.

Intellectual property

The content, design, text, graphics and downloadable documents on this site are owned by us or used with permission, and are protected by South African and international copyright law. You may read, download and print our published guides for your own or your organisation's internal use. You may not republish them, sell them, present them as your own work, or remove our name from them. Our name, logo and brand are ours, and nothing on this site grants you a licence to use them.

Enquiries you send us

When you send an enquiry through this site, we use what you tell us to respond to you. We treat enquiries as confidential. Please do not use the enquiry form to send information you would not want transmitted by email - if a matter is sensitive, call us on +27 21 949 4440 and we will arrange an appropriate channel. How we handle personal information is set out in our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy, and in our Compliance page. Sending us an enquiry does not by itself create a client relationship or a mandate; that begins only when we agree one with you in writing.

Links to other websites

This site links to websites we do not operate or control, including the website of our labour consultants. We provide those links for convenience. We are not responsible for the content, availability or practices of any third-party site, and a link is not an endorsement of everything on it. Their terms and privacy practices apply once you leave this site.

Availability

We aim to keep this site available and accurate, but we do not guarantee that it will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of anything harmful. We may change, suspend or withdraw any part of it, or these terms, at any time. Continuing to use the site after a change means you accept the updated terms, so please check this page from time to time.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by South African law - and nothing here limits any liability that cannot lawfully be limited, including under the Consumer Protection Act - we are not liable for any loss or damage arising from your use of, or inability to use, this website, or from reliance on any content on it. This does not affect the terms of any engagement we agree with a client in writing; those terms govern the work we do for you.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the law of the Republic of South Africa, and the South African courts have jurisdiction over any dispute arising from them or from your use of this site.
