Privacy
Privacy
The plain version. Musika is operated by Cabanga Africa (Pty) Ltd as a Cabanga Platforms venture.
This policy explains what Musika collects, why, and the rights you hold over it. Musika serves twelve SADC markets, so it is written to the Botswana Data Protection Act, 2018 (its operating base), and applied consistently with South Africa's POPIA and, where an EU or UK resident deals with the platform, the GDPR and UK GDPR. It is a starting document for the business, not legal advice.
Who controls your data
The data controller is Cabanga Africa (Pty) Ltd, operating the Musika platform. Registered office: [CLIENT FILLS: registered office address]. Data-request contact: privacy@musika.africa.
What we collect
When you post, we collect your name, company and contact so we can make an introduction. Your goods, volume and market are shown on the public board; your name and contact are never shown there. We also collect the one-time verification code you enter, and basic technical data your browser sends (see cookies and analytics below).
Purpose and legal basis
We process your details to confirm your post, make introductions and reach you about the trade - our legal basis is the performance of, and steps toward, that service (contract), and our legitimate interest in running a floor free of fake posts. Analytics rest on your consent. We do not process special-category data and do not use your details for automated decisions.
Cookies and analytics
The site itself sets no marketing cookies. If analytics are enabled they load only after consent and are used to count visits and improve the floor, never to identify you. You can decline without losing access to any part of the platform.
Sharing with third parties
The only detail we ever pass on is the contact of a party we are introducing you to, and only to complete an introduction you asked for. We use Google (mail and sheet services) to run the verification step and hold the private record; those providers process data on our instruction. We never sell your details or place them on the public board.
Retention
An unconfirmed post is never stored - if you don't enter the code, nothing is kept. A confirmed post is held as a single private row for as long as the trade is live, and removed on the next cycle once you ask or the introduction is closed. [CLIENT FILLS: maximum retention period, e.g. 24 months after last contact].
Your rights
You may ask to see, correct, remove or export the details we hold, and to withdraw analytics consent at any time. There is no account to close - the record is a single row we delete on request. To exercise any right, email privacy@musika.africa. You may also complain to the relevant regulator - in Botswana, the Information and Data Protection Commission.
