What we do with your details
This covers the beta waiting list on stackhaus.net. Last updated 10 November 2026.
Who we are
Stackhaus is run from South Africa by Jessica Zielemans, who is the responsible party under the Protection of Personal Information Act (POPIA) and the controller under the GDPR. You can reach us at hello@stackhaus.net.
What we collect
- What you type in the form: your name, email address, what describes you (agency, freelancer and so on) and roughly how many clients you send email for.
- Proof of your choices: the date and time you submitted, which wording you agreed to, and whether you ticked the optional product updates box.
We do not store your IP address, and we do not use analytics or advertising cookies on this site. Your IP address is used briefly in memory to limit repeated submissions, then discarded.
Why we use it
- To email you when a beta place is ready, and to understand who we are building for. Your agreement when you tick the box is our legal basis.
- To send occasional product updates, only if you ticked the separate optional box.
We do not sell your details and we do not share them for advertising.
Who can see it
The list is held on a server we control in South Africa. When we start sending email, our email delivery provider (we expect to use Postmark or Amazon SES, which may process data outside South Africa and the EU) will process addresses on our behalf under a data processing agreement. We will update this notice before that happens.
How long we keep it
Until you ask us to delete it, or until 12 months after the beta opens if we have not heard from you, whichever comes first.
Your rights
You can ask to see what we hold, correct it, delete it, or withdraw your agreement at any time by emailing hello@stackhaus.net. Every product update email will also carry an unsubscribe link. If you are unhappy with how we handle your information, you can complain to the Information Regulator in South Africa (inforegulator.org.za) or, if you are in the EU or UK, to your local data protection authority.
