Volunteer Confidentiality Agreement

"I need a Volunteer Confidentiality Agreement for our wildlife conservation NGO in Cape Town, which will be used for volunteers who will have access to our donor database and endangered species location data starting March 2025."

Document background
The Volunteer Confidentiality Agreement is essential for organizations in South Africa that engage volunteers and need to protect sensitive information. It becomes necessary when volunteers may have access to confidential organizational information, personal data of clients or staff, or proprietary information during their service. The agreement ensures compliance with South African legislation, particularly POPIA, while protecting the organization's interests. It's designed to create clear obligations regarding information handling, establish security protocols, and maintain confidentiality even after the volunteer service ends. This document is particularly relevant given South Africa's strict data protection requirements and the increasing need for formal volunteer management in various sectors.
