RegEasy – the new POPI Act software
Navigating POPIA compliance doesn’t have to be complicated. RegEasy is a purpose-built software solution that helps South African businesses manage data protection with confidence. From risk assessments to consent tracking, it centralises compliance processes — saving time, reducing risk, and keeping your organisation audit-ready.
Last year we launched RegEasy as a simple way to help clients track visitors and employees coming and going under new COVID-19 regulations. This year, we’ve expanded the software to help businesses keep track of their POPI Act compliance documents. We are proud to relaunch this incredibly useful and powerful solution for businesses.
The impact of the POPI Act on businesses
After going through the process ourselves to ensure that Netgen is compliant, we realised just what a big job this can be. It took some time to wrap our heads around the Act and what it covers, but we are confident that we are now there.
One of the keys to understanding the impact of POPIA is realising that your business is responsible for any personal information you collect, store and use. You need to ensure that you are compliant now and that you remain that way. In order to do this, it’s essential that you are organised.
How RegEasy works
We also decided to take all of our learnings around POPIA and find a way to help our clients with ensuring their businesses are compliant. Last year, RegEasy was just a simple, secure register program. Now, it’s grown into a system that allows you to manage all of your necessary POPI documents.
Users get their own dashboard that includes everyone the business interacts with – suppliers, clients and employees. You can then upload all documents pertaining to the POPI Act and share them with the correct people. There is an option for each person on your company profile to acknowledge receipt of the documents and to upload signed versions where necessary.
Keeping all of this data in one place – one secure place – will help you to ensure that everyone has been informed of their rights and your responsibilities. If you’d like to find out more about RegEasy, the POPI Act software, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
