The ports regulator of south africa requires suppliers to complete and sign a popia consent form as part of the procurement process for the supply and delivery of office stationery. The form authorises the regulator to process the supplier's personal information for vendor registration, contract management, auditing, risk assessment and central supplier database verification. The most consequential consideration is that the supplier must provide explicit consent to this processing; failure to do so will disqualify the bid.
POPIA consent: The supplier must complete, sign and submit the POPIA consent form, indicating consent to the processing of personal information by the Ports Regulator.
Third-party consent: The supplier must declare that it has obtained all consents for any third-party personal information included in its submission.
Accuracy declaration: The supplier must declare that all personal information submitted is complete, accurate, not misleading and up to date.
Indemnity: The supplier must indemnify the Ports Regulator against any civil or criminal action, administrative fines or other penalties arising from the processing of personal information the supplier submits.
Disqualification risk: Failure to provide consent on the POPIA form, or submitting incomplete or inaccurate personal information, will disqualify the bid.
Complaints channel: Complaints about the processing of personal information may be submitted to the Information Regulator at [email protected] or via https://www.justice.gov.za/inforeg/.
