WWF LHSKT Trust Manual in terms of PAIA and POPIA

The Leslie Hill Succulent Karoo Trust, managed by WWF South Africa, has published this manual to comply with the Promotion of Access to Information Act (PAIA) and the Protection of Personal Information Act (POPIA). It outlines the procedures for requesting records, the fees associated with such requests, the categories of information held by the Trust, and the mechanisms for data subjects to object to the processing of their personal information or request its correction.

• The Leslie Hill Succulent Karoo Trust was established in 1995 by Mr Leslie Hill to provide funding for "strategic conservation initiatives in the Succulent Karoo", with a specific focus on "land acquisition for the creation of core conservation areas".
• The Trust is managed by WWF South Africa, which maintains all relevant records, as the Trust itself "has no employees".
• Annual Financial Statements are the only category of records available to the public without a formal request under the Act.
• Non-personal requesters must pay a prescribed request fee of R140.00, while those seeking their own personal information are exempt from this fee.
• The Trust holds several categories of records via WWF-SA, including administration and operational records (such as minutes and correspondence), financial management records (including budgets and tax returns), and governance documents like the Trust Deed.
• Personal information processed by the Trust relates to directors, trustees, service providers, consultants, contractors, and partners, and may be supplied to government bodies, financial institutions, agents, and suppliers.
• The Trust may transfer personal information to third parties in foreign countries under specific conditions, such as when the recipient is subject to laws providing "adequate protection of the Personal Information" or when the data subject provides consent.
