IEASA - IO Privacy - How to be POPIA and PAIA compliant in real estate, without lifting a finger

About the topic
POPIA and PAIA compliance is a headache in any industry, even without considering the unique challenges of the real estate environment. Are independent agents responsible for clients' personal information? What are the most practical steps for agencies to take without slowing down business? How do I meet the 30 June 2027 deadline for PAIA report submissions?

This webinar looks at the core compliance obligations set by POPIA and PAIA, and how to meet them in the real estate industry. Most importantly, it considers how to do this with as little effort and cost as possible.

About IO Privacy:
IO Privacy is a data protection compliance services provider that handles POPIA and PAIA core compliance obligations for businesses that don’t have the resources to do so themselves. Its services are built on the idea that data protection compliance can be straightforward and affordable.

IO Privacy works on an annual subscription model, at R3000, and all clients need to do is answer a simple questionnaire at the start – the service team handles everything else.

Date: Tuesday 1 September 2026
