Privacy Policy

Updated October 21, 2026

Privacy Policy

This privacy policy explains how SAPS Guide handles information when you use this website. In short: we collect as little as possible, and we never sell or share your personal information.

Information we don't collect

We don't run user accounts, and we don't ask for your name, ID number, email address, or phone number anywhere on this site. If you participate in the community discussion pages, whatever you choose to post there is visible to other visitors — so don't post personal details like your ID number, banking information, or portal passwords. Ever.

Information collected automatically

Like most websites, our hosting setup may log basic technical information when you visit: your IP address, browser type, the pages you view, and the time of your visit. We use this only to keep the site running, spot abuse, and understand which guides applicants find most useful. We don't use it to identify you personally.

Cookies

This site may use basic cookies for core functionality (like remembering your preferences) and, if advertising is enabled, our advertising partners may use cookies to serve relevant ads. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings; the site's guides will still work.

Third-party links

Our guides link to official external websites, including erecruitment.saps.gov.za, saps.gov.za, and the official app stores. We don't control those sites or their privacy practices — check their policies when you visit them.

Children's privacy

This site is a general information resource and isn't directed at children. SAPS trainee applicants must be at least 18, and our content assumes an adult audience.

Changes to this policy

If we change this policy, we'll update this page. Continued use of the site after changes means you accept the updated policy.

Questions

If you have questions about this policy, raise them through the community discussion pages — see our contact page for how to reach the site community.
