Common questions
How often will I get emails?
Email alerts are deliberately rare. You get the weekly digest, plus a same-day note only when something high-impact lands in a category you picked — a SARS Schedule 1 amendment, a gazetted duty change, a major port disruption. Most weeks that is the digest and nothing else. Pro adds instant browser notifications on the same categories.
Can I choose which categories I receive?
Yes — tick them on the form above, or toggle them any time in your account settings: regulatory & SARS, port events, general trade news, and new-tool announcements, each independently. Pro members pick categories separately for browser notifications. The weekly digest always covers everything in one email.
What if I want to stop?
Every email includes a one-click unsubscribe. We honour it immediately. POPIA s23 also gives you the right to request deletion of every record we hold — email [email protected] and we'll do it within 10 business days. If you previously opted in to WhatsApp alerts, you can opt out and have your number deleted.
