Privacy: what POPIA means for this form

Nationally, POPIA is the Protection of Personal Information Act: collect for a specific reason, tell people, and keep it safe.

This massage intake form asks about health, which most privacy laws treat as sensitive. Ask only what the session really needs and say why next to the question.

CalendarForm keeps each business's answers separate, lets you export them to CSV, and does not use them for anything else. Link your own privacy notice in the form's description.
