Who we are

Estolo is a service of IGCS PTY LTD (registration 2024/517961/07), 23 Fairways Road, Uvongo, KwaZulu-Natal 4270, South Africa. We are the responsible party under the Protection of Personal Information Act, 2013 (POPIA). Information Officer: the director of IGCS PTY LTD, reachable at ig@igcs.co.za.

What we collect

  • Account details: the owner's name, email, mobile number and business details (name, VAT number, stores).
  • Staff details you enter: names, roles and PINs (PINs are stored only as a one-way hash).
  • Business records you create: products, prices, sales, refunds, payouts, cash-ups and the audit log.
  • Billing records: invoices, payments and proof-of-payment files you upload.
  • Messages you send us through the website, WhatsApp or email.
  • Technical data needed to run and protect the service, such as IP addresses for spam protection (stored as a short one-way code) and device information for registered tills.
We do not need, and do not ask for, your customers' details. A customer's WhatsApp number is used only to open WhatsApp on your device and is not stored.

Why we use it

To provide the till service, to bill the subscription, to answer your questions, to keep the service secure and to meet legal duties (for example tax records). We do not sell personal information and we do not use it for advertising.

Where it is kept

Data is stored with Google Cloud (Firebase) in Johannesburg, South Africa. Some service providers (for example Google, and our email provider) may process data outside South Africa under safeguards required by POPIA.

How we protect it

Connections are encrypted (HTTPS). Access is controlled per business and per role, so staff only see what you allow. PINs and device secrets are hashed. Changes are recorded in an audit log.

How long we keep it

While your account is active, and afterwards for as long as the law requires for financial records (normally 5 years). You can ask us to delete other information when you close your account.

Your rights

You may ask to see, correct or delete your personal information, and you may object to its use. Write to ig@igcs.co.za. You may also complain to the Information Regulator (South Africa): inforeg.org.za.
