About the publication

A watchful eye on the Regulator.

InfoRegWatch is an independent, editorial-style aggregator dedicated to the work of the Information Regulator (South Africa) — the body established under the Protection of Personal Information Act to uphold the rights to privacy and access to information.

We gather news from leading South African publishers, then summarise and classify each article with the help of artificial intelligence. Every story links back to its original publisher — we do not replace journalism, we index it.

Sections

  • POPIA — coverage of the Protection of Personal Information Act and compliance trends.
  • PAIA — access to information matters and requests.
  • Enforcement — fines, investigations, enforcement notices issued by the Regulator.
  • Appointments — leadership and staffing news at the Regulator.
  • Rulings — court decisions, tribunal outcomes, precedent.
