SVRGN Capital Group (“SCG”, “we”, “us” or “our”) respects the confidentiality and privacy of personal, corporate and commercially sensitive information submitted through this website.
This Privacy Policy explains what information may be collected through the SVRGN Capital Group website, why it may be processed, how it may be used or disclosed, and the measures applied to protect information submitted to us.
SCG processes personal information in accordance with applicable data-protection requirements, including the Protection of Personal Information Act 4 of 2013 (“POPIA”) where applicable.

Users must not submit banking passwords, online-banking credentials, PINs, security codes, private keys, authentication credentials or similar security secrets through this website or by email.
2. Why information is processed
Information may be processed for legitimate commercial and administrative purposes including:
- Responding to enquiries
- Evaluating buying requirements and supply opportunities
- Assessing commercial compatibility
- Conducting preliminary buyer, supplier or intermediary qualification
- Conducting or coordinating KYC and KYB procedures
- Corporate-document and authority verification

- Coordinating inspection, assay, logistics, warehousing or delivery arrangements
- Assessing transaction readiness
- Preventing fraud, abuse and misuse of SCG systems
- Meeting legal, regulatory, compliance and record-keeping requirements
- Maintaining appropriate business and transaction records.
Submission of information through this website does not create a contract, mandate, agency relationship, allocation, exclusivity arrangement or guarantee that SCG will proceed with an opportunity.
3. Voluntary provision of information
Information submitted through SCG’s website forms is generally provided voluntarily.
Certain fields are marked as required because SCG may be unable to properly assess or respond to an enquiry without that information.
A person or organisation is not required to submit an enquiry through this website. However, failure to provide information reasonably required for commercial qualification or due diligence may prevent SCG from progressing an opportunity.
4. Confidential and commercially sensitive information
SCG does not intend to publicly disclose buyer, supplier, mine, producer, stockpile, mandate, customer, contract, pricing, transaction or other confidential commercial information without appropriate authority.
Website submissions and uploaded documents are intended to be accessible only to authorised persons involved in the relevant review or transaction process.
Where opportunities are referenced publicly, SCG may use transaction or opportunity reference numbers rather than disclosing confidential party names or locations.
5. Sharing with counterparties and service providers
Information may be shared with relevant counterparties or appropriately qualified independent service providers where reasonably necessary to evaluate or progress an enquiry or transaction.
Depending on the transaction, such parties may include:
- Buyers and suppliers
- Legal advisers
- Compliance and due-diligence providers
- Inspection companies
- Laboratories and assay providers
- Logistics providers
- Warehouses and handling facilities
- Customs or trade specialists
- Financial institutions
- Escrow providers
- Insurers
- Hosting and technology providers
- Email providers
- Professional advisers.
Information will not be shared merely for unrelated third-party marketing purposes.
SCG may also disclose information where required by law, regulation, court order or another lawful authority.
6. International processing and transfers
SCG operates in an international commercial environment. Consequently, information relating to a transaction may need to be processed or shared with authorised counterparties or service providers located outside South Africa.
Where cross-border processing occurs, SCG will seek to apply appropriate confidentiality, contractual, legal and data-protection safeguards according to the circumstances and applicable law.
POPIA regulates the transfer of personal information across South Africa’s borders.
7. Website analytics and technical information
SCG may use privacy-conscious analytics and security technologies to understand website usage, protect forms and systems, detect abuse and improve website performance.
The website may use services including:
Google Analytics for website traffic and usage measurement.
Cloudflare Turnstile for anti-spam and automated-abuse protection.
Analytics technologies should operate in accordance with the website’s applicable consent and cookie settings.
More information is available in SCG’s Cookie Policy.
8. Retention
SCG seeks to retain information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, or where continued retention is reasonably required for:
- Commercial assessment
- Transaction administration
- Due diligence
- Compliance
- Dispute management
- Fraud prevention
- Security
- Legal obligations
- Accounting or record-keeping requirements.
Information that no longer needs to be retained should be deleted, anonymised or otherwise appropriately disposed of where reasonably practicable and legally permitted.
POPIA generally requires personal information not to be retained longer than necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, subject to applicable exceptions.
9. Information security
SCG seeks to apply reasonable technical and organisational safeguards designed to protect information against:
- Unauthorised access
- Unlawful processing
- Accidental loss
- Unauthorised alteration
- Improper disclosure
- Destruction or misuse.
These measures may include access restrictions, private document storage, secure transmission, anti-spam controls, restricted administrator access and other appropriate safeguards.
No website, electronic transmission, email system or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
POPIA requires responsible parties to take appropriate and reasonable technical and organisational measures to preserve the integrity and confidentiality of personal information.
10. Security incidents
Where SCG becomes aware of a security compromise involving personal information, SCG will assess the incident and take such steps as may be required under applicable law.
POPIA provides for notification to the Information Regulator and affected data subjects in qualifying security-compromise circumstances.
11. Your rights
Subject to applicable law and relevant exceptions, individuals may have rights concerning their personal information, including the right to:
- Ask whether SCG holds personal information about them
- Request access to certain personal information
- Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete information
- Request deletion or destruction where legally appropriate
- Object to certain processing
- Withdraw consent where processing depends on consent
- Raise a complaint regarding the processing of personal information.
South African data subjects may also have rights and remedies under POPIA.
12. Contact SCG regarding privacy
Privacy-related questions, requests or concerns may be directed to:
SVRGN Capital Group
Email: info@svrgncapitalgroup.site
SCG may request appropriate information to verify the identity and authority of a person making a privacy-related request before disclosing or amending information.
Where applicable, complaints relating to POPIA may also be directed to South Africa’s Information Regulator, the independent authority established under POPIA.
13. Children
This website is intended for commercial and business-to-business use and is not directed at children.
Users should not intentionally submit children’s personal information through SCG’s commercial enquiry forms.
14. Changes to this Privacy Policy
SCG may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in its website, business processes, technologies, legal requirements or privacy practices.
The latest version published on this website will apply from the stated update date.
Important commercial disclaimer
Information published on this website is provided for general commercial information only. Product availability, specifications, pricing, quantities, delivery schedules and transaction terms are subject to verification, due diligence, regulatory compliance and execution of definitive agreements.
Nothing on this website constitutes a binding offer, financial advice, investment advice or a guarantee of performance.
Why this version is better
The biggest additions are website analytics/security data, voluntary versus required fields, international data transfers, security incidents, a proper contact section, children, disclosure rules and a clearer description of data-subject rights. Those are relevant because SCG is dealing internationally and may receive relatively sensitive commercial documentation.
One thing we will eventually want to add is the name/contact details of SCG’s designated Information Officer, once that person has formally been determined. POPIA places compliance responsibility on the responsible party, and organisations typically designate an Information Officer for POPIA/PAIA functions.
For now, info@svrgncapitalgroup.site is fine as the published privacy contact.
This wording is intended as a sensible website compliance baseline, not a substitute for formal South African legal advice. Before SCG begins handling significant volumes of KYC documents, IDs, beneficial-ownership data or cross-border personal information, professional POPIA/PAIA review would be worthwhile.
Next action: replace the existing Privacy Policy text with the version above and click Save. Then we’ll review Terms of Use next.
