Under POPIA we are allowed to send you Direct Marketing by means of electronic communication if:

You can opt out of receiving Direct Marketing communications from us at any time.  Any Direct Marketing communications that we send to you will provide you with the information on how to opt out from receiving Direct Marketing communications from us. Any opt out requests (or withdrawal of consent from receiving direct marketing messages) must be done using the opt out details provided on the direct marketing communications.
