Disclaimer and Confidentiality Clause

The disclaimer is enforceable and binding on the recipient/addressee of an e-mail in terms of section 11 of the Electronic Communications and Transactions Act, 25 of 2002. NESS reserves the right to read, monitor, access, block, delete, copy or otherwise intercept any e-mail sent in reply to an e-mail from NESS or any of its employees.

This message and any attachments hereto are intended for the sole purpose and / or use of the intended recipient or an authorized representative. It contains confidential information that and may be subject to legal privilege and client confidentiality. Should you not be the intended recipient, kindly advise the sender immediately by email or facsimile and destroy the message and any other copies.

  • Unsolicited commercial messages (“Spam”);
  • Messages that infringe any third parties copyright, trademarks or other rights and interests (“Infringing content”); or.
  • Messages containing content that is offensive, derogatory, racist, defamatory or otherwise unlawful (“Offensive content”).

In terms of section 86 (1) of the Electronic Communications and Transactions Act, 25 of 2002 a person who intentionally intercepts any data without authority or permission to do so, is guilty of an offence.

This disclaimer is governed by the laws of the Republic of South Africa and shall be deemed to supersede any terms contained in any e-mail received by FMI, insofar as these conflict with the disclaimer.
