Terms of use

These terms govern your use of the Trusting Trusts website. By using this site, you accept these terms as they apply from time to time.

Website operator and scope

This website is operated by Astros Marketing (Pty) Ltd, 2 Makro Place, Sunnyrock 1401. These terms apply to your access to and use of this website, including any pages, guides, forms and content made available through it.

The website provides general information about trust and estate administration services offered under the Trusting Trusts brand. Content on this site is intended to help visitors understand the nature of the services available, but it is not a substitute for advice on your own matter. Each trust, estate and family arrangement depends on its own facts, documents and timing.

  • Use of this website is at your own risk.
  • If you do not agree with these terms, please do not use the site.
  • These terms apply together with any specific notices shown on particular pages or forms.

Use of website content

All text, layout, graphics, downloads and other material on this website are provided for lawful personal or internal business use only. You may read, save and print content for your own reference, provided that you do not remove any notices of ownership or present the material as your own.

You may not copy, republish, distribute, adapt or use content from this website for commercial gain without prior written permission from the website operator. You may also not use this website in a way that interferes with its normal operation or attempts to gain unauthorised access to any part of the site, server or connected systems.

  • No unlawful, misleading or harmful use is permitted.
  • No automated scraping, harvesting or bulk extraction is permitted without consent.
  • No framing of this website on another site is permitted without written approval.

Information only, not legal or tax advice

Information on this website is general in nature. It does not create a professional relationship simply because you have visited the site, read a guide or submitted an enquiry. Any examples, process explanations or checklists are broad summaries intended to assist with understanding only.

Trust formation, trustee duties, estate reporting, estate distribution, wills and related tax questions can have significant consequences. You should obtain advice suited to your own situation before acting or deciding not to act on any website content. No outcome is promised and no statement on this website should be read as a guarantee of result, timing or suitability.

Enquiries and POPIA

If you contact us through the enquiry form on the contact page, you consent to the collection and use of the personal information you provide for the purpose of responding to your enquiry, assessing the service requested and communicating with you about that request. Personal information will be handled in line with applicable South African privacy requirements, including POPIA, where relevant.

You should avoid sending unnecessary sensitive information through a website form. Where more detailed documents are needed for a trust or estate matter, these can be requested through the proper process after initial contact.

  • Information submitted must be true and accurate to the best of your knowledge.
  • You should only provide personal information that you are authorised to share.
  • Website submissions do not by themselves create a client relationship.

Availability, links and changes

We aim to keep this website available and reasonably up to date, but we do not warrant uninterrupted access, error free operation or that all content will always be current, complete or suitable for every purpose. Maintenance, technical faults, connectivity issues or security events may affect access from time to time.

This website may contain links to external websites for convenience. Those websites are controlled by others, and use of them is at your own risk. The inclusion of a link does not mean that the website operator approves of or is responsible for the linked content, privacy practices or availability.

These terms may be updated by posting a revised version on this page. The latest version will apply from the date it is published on the website.

Liability, governing law and contact route

To the fullest extent allowed by law, the website operator is not liable for loss, damage, liability or expense arising from your use of, or inability to use, this website or reliance on any content made available on it. This includes direct and indirect loss, data loss, interruption, and loss arising from viruses or other harmful components, although reasonable care may be taken to reduce such risks.

Nothing in these terms excludes any right that cannot lawfully be excluded under South African law. These terms are governed by the laws of South Africa, and any dispute connected with the website will be subject to the appropriate South African forum.

If you have a question about these terms or your use of the site, please contact us through the enquiry form on the contact page.
