Credit Season / Legal information

GDPR & POPIA

Data protection in plain English.

Credit Season is designed to let visitors compare before sharing contact details. This page explains how GDPR and POPIA principles apply to that design.

Our role

For website information under our control, Credit Season acts as the responsible party under POPIA and, where the GDPR applies, controller. A lender, matching service, affiliate network or hosting provider may have separate responsibilities for its own processing.

Lawful grounds

We rely on legitimate interests for essential delivery, security, service improvement and referral measurement, balanced against visitors’ rights. We rely on consent where the law requires it, including for optional marketing or non-essential technologies. We do not use special personal information to make credit decisions.

Your choices

You can browse comparison results without entering a name, ID number, cellphone number or email address. Do not send sensitive documents, bank credentials, PINs or one-time passwords to Credit Season. A provider may require information when you leave this website; read its notice before continuing.

Rights requests

Depending on the law that applies, you may request access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection, portability or withdrawal of consent. We will verify a request before acting on it and respond within the period required by applicable law.

Regulators

South African data subjects may contact the Information Regulator. Individuals in the European Economic Area or United Kingdom may have additional rights under the GDPR or UK GDPR and may contact their relevant supervisory authority. This page is an operational transparency notice and does not replace independent legal advice.
