Who we are

This website is operated by 86400 Impact Studio, a registered Non Profit Company in South Africa (registration number 2025/966388/08), with its registered address at 8 Peace Avenue, Morningside, Durban, KwaZulu-Natal, 4001. For anything in this policy, write to info@impactstudio.africa.

What we collect

We collect very little, and only what you choose to give us:

• Email enquiries — when you write to info@impactstudio.africa, we receive your email address, your name if you share it, and the content of your message.
• Newsletter — if you subscribe to studio updates, we collect your email address (and your first name if you choose to give it) together with a record of your consent. Subscription uses double opt-in: nothing is added to our list until you confirm from your own inbox.
• Technical logs — our hosting provider keeps standard, short-lived server logs (such as IP address, browser type and pages requested) to keep the site secure and working.

What we use it for

To reply to your enquiry, to send you the updates you asked for, and to keep the website secure and reliable. We do not sell personal information, and we do not use it for advertising.

Your consent

We process your information with your consent, or where it is reasonably necessary to respond to you. You may withdraw consent at any time: every newsletter includes an unsubscribe link, and you can ask us to delete your details by writing to info@impactstudio.africa.

Who processes it for us

The website is hosted by Vercel, email is handled through our mail provider, and the newsletter is managed through Mailchimp. Some of these providers process information outside South Africa; we use established providers whose terms include appropriate safeguards for that processing.

How long we keep it

Enquiries are kept for as long as needed to deal with them and for reasonable record-keeping. Newsletter details are kept until you unsubscribe or ask us to remove them.

Your rights

Under the Protection of Personal Information Act (POPIA) you may ask what personal information we hold about you, ask us to correct or delete it, and object to its processing. Write to info@impactstudio.africa and we will respond. You may also lodge a complaint with the Information Regulator (South Africa).

Children

This website is public information for everyone, including young people. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children; where a programme involves participants under 18, consent is handled with a parent or guardian as part of that programme, not through this website.
