POPI Act Compliance

The Protection of Personal Information (POPI) Act has transformed the South African privacy landscape.
WIB Legal has three specific solutions to guide you through your continued compliance, namely the POPI Gap Analysis, Information Officer Evaluation and Training to ensure ongoing awareness.

Key Facts About POPI
  • New South African data privacy legislation which came into effect on 1 July 2021
  • Any organisation which obtains, processes, stores, or shares personal information is affected
  • Stricter conditions for obtaining data privacy consents

POPI Act Gap Analysis


We will facilitate an assessment, including workshops with key individuals, to provide you with a comprehensive POPI Gap Analysis, including guidance on the recommended policies that you should have in place. This report will identify areas that require improvement to ensure ongoing POPI compliance.

Information Officer Evaluation


Our team will customise a questionnaire to evaluate the effectiveness and performance of the appointed Information Officer. This will provide your company with comfort that the chosen Information Officer is attending to his duties and responsibilities as required by POPIA.

Information Officer & Employee Training


WIB Consulting understands that only through collaboration can we develop viable concepts, strategies and action plans, which ensure the implementation of sustainable projects and long-term solutions. By working closely with our clients, we ensure that these solutions are seamlessly integrated into our client’s environment.

A risk based approach is necessary on the road to compliance. Companies, Local Government, and State Owned Enterprises and other public entities should therefore identify and prioritise the activities that will pose the biggest risks in terms of POPIA.
