Meridian/VAsset Data Validation
Pre-pilot
Privacy policy · Last updated 04 May 2026

Privacy policy.

Meridian/V (Pty) Ltd processes pavement and road-asset data on behalf of registered authorities, consultants, and contractors. The page below describes our pilot-phase practices in plain language. It is not legal advice — a final counsel-reviewed, POPIA-compliant policy replaces this document before commercial launch.

§ 01

Information we collect

For each user account: email address, full name, organisation, and role assigned by your organisation administrator. For each submission: the CSV dataset you upload, the validation findings produced by the rule engine, and the audit trail of actions performed against it.
§ 02

How we use information

To provide the validation service: parsing submissions, running rule checks, generating certificates, displaying audit trails, and notifying users. Submission file bytes are hashed (SHA-256) at certification time and the hash is published as part of the certificate. We do not use customer data for advertising or model training.
§ 03

Data residency

Pilot data is processed on managed cloud infrastructure operated under a written data-processing agreement and a POPIA-aligned handling regime. South African in-region residency is on the roadmap before commercial launch — the migration plan and target timeline are published in the documentation.
§ 04

Sub-processors

We use a small set of industry-standard managed services to operate the platform:
  • A managed PostgreSQL database for metadata, audit log, and certificates.
  • Encrypted object storage for submission file bytes (server-side encryption, versioning enabled).
  • A managed identity provider for authentication and multi-factor enrolment.
  • A transactional email provider for invitations, password resets, and co-sign notifications.
  • A managed container runtime for the application itself.

A full, named sub-processor list is available on request to subscribed organisations under NDA. We do not use any analytics, advertising, or behavioural-tracking sub-processors.

§ 05

Your rights

You can request access to or deletion of your account data by emailing privacy@tmh18.com. Submission data deletion is subject to your organisation's retention policy and may require admin authorisation.
