What we provide

This website offers plain-language guidance on Zimbabwe's Cyber and Data Protection Act [Chapter 12:07], a free self-check, sector briefs, downloadable forms and a consultation service. The guidance is provided to help you understand your obligations; it does not constitute independent legal advice.

You remain the data controller

Using our resources or engaging our consultancy does not transfer your responsibilities as a data controller. Your organisation remains the data controller at law for the personal data you process. Decisions about licensing, registration and compliance rest with you and, ultimately, with POTRAZ.

No outcome guaranteed

We do not guarantee any particular licensing, inspection or regulatory outcome. The regulator's decisions are independent of us, and compliance preparation reduces risk but cannot eliminate it.

Use of this site

You may use the resources on this site for your own organisation's compliance work. You may not reproduce content for commercial resale without permission. Automated scraping of the site is not permitted.

Intellectual property

Original content on this site is © Zimbabwe Data Protection Guide. Official forms and statutes remain the property of their respective issuers and are reproduced for convenience only.

Limitation of liability

To the extent permitted by law, our liability arising from the use of this website's free resources is excluded. Liability arising from a consultancy engagement is governed by the engagement letter signed for that work.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of Zimbabwe.

For questions about these terms, email info@dataprotection.co.zw.
