How we handle your information

This notice explains what personal information G4 Civils (Pty) Ltd collects, why we collect it and what you can ask us to do about it. It is written to meet the Protection of Personal Information Act 4 of 2013 (POPIA).

Who we are

G4 Civils (Pty) Ltd, Registration No. 1989/003171/07, 38 Bokmakierie Road, Zwavelpoort, Pretoria East, 0081. We are a civil engineering contractor working mainly in Gauteng, Limpopo, North West and Mpumalanga.

What we collect

• Contact details you give us: name, company, job title, telephone number and email address.
• The content of enquiries and correspondence you send us.
• Job applications: CV, qualifications, references and the identity details needed for site access and statutory records.
• Supplier and subcontractor records: company details, B-BBEE certificate, tax clearance and banking details for payment.
• Site records: induction registers, medical fitness confirmations, attendance records and incident reports required under the Occupational Health and Safety Act or the Mine Health and Safety Act.
• Website use: standard server logs and the cookies described below.

Why we collect it

• To answer enquiries and price work.
• To tender, contract, deliver the work and get paid.
• To meet legal duties, including CIDB registration, B-BBEE verification, SARS, UIF, COIDA and health and safety record keeping.
• To recruit and employ people.
• To keep our sites and the people on them safe.

Who we share it with

We share personal information only where the work or the law requires it: with clients and their engineers where a contract calls for names, CVs or statutory records; with our auditors, bankers, insurers and verification agencies; with government bodies where legislation requires it; and with the service providers who host and maintain our systems. We do not sell personal information and we do not share it for marketing.

How long we keep it

We keep records for as long as the contract and the law require. Employment, tax and health and safety records are kept for the periods set in the relevant Act. Enquiries that do not lead to work are deleted once they are no longer needed.

How we protect it

Access is limited to the people who need the information for their work. Records are held on password protected systems and are backed up. Where we use an outside service provider, they are required to keep the information confidential and to use it only for the work we give them.

Your rights

Under POPIA you may ask us what personal information we hold about you, ask us to correct or delete information that is wrong, out of date or no longer needed, and object to our use of your information. You may also ask us to stop sending you direct marketing. Write to the Information Officer below and we will respond within a reasonable period.
