Cookies

A cookie is a small piece of data that a web site can transfer to your computer hard drive for record keeping. Transport SA may use cookies to help you access and use our site and improve the service we offer. There is no attempt to identify you personally.

The use of cookies in this way is widespread and commonly accepted by the Internet community. You can set your browser to reject a cookie that Transport SA attempts to place on your computer. However you may then be limited in your use of some areas of the site.

Collection of personal information

Email addresses

Transport SA will only record your email address if you send us a message by email or you include it in an online form.

It will only be used to send you a reply and not added to a mailing list or used for any other purpose without your consent.

The email address is stored in a secure area and only forwarded to appropriate staff so they can answer your question.

Online transactions

When you perform an online transaction we update our relevant databases and store transaction information to use for future transactions and for audit purposes.

Access to this information is restricted to Transport SA personnel who need to transact business with you. Your name, address, credit card information or personal information will not be sold or given away to any other person, company or organisation without your consent. However, we must cooperate fully should a situation arise where we are required by law or legal process to provide information about a customer.

All information is securely transmitted using standard encryption processes.

If you do not wish to transmit the required details electronically you can contact us in a variety of other ways. {needs embedded link to Contact Us}
