We may also use your contact details to send communications reasonably necessary for the administration of the celebration, including invitations, RSVP confirmations, changes to arrangements, logistical information, transport information, activity information and safety-related communications. Such communications are event-related communications and are not intended to constitute unrelated direct marketing.

Service providers acting on our behalf will be expected to protect the information through appropriate contractual, confidentiality and security obligations and may only process personal information only for authorised purposes.
A venue, activity operator or transport provider may sometimes process information as an independent responsible party. In those circumstances, its own privacy terms may also apply.
Some website, email or other service providers may process or store personal information outside South Africa.
Where information is transferred internationally, we will take reasonable steps to ensure that the recipient is subject to appropriate legal, contractual or organisational safeguards, or that another lawful basis for the transfer applies.

Images or recordings outside the private context of the celebration will not be used for unrelated commercial, public-facing purposes or promotional purposes without additional notice or permission where required.
