5. Child users
A child user is under the age of 18 years who is not legally competent, without the assistance of a competent person, to take any action or decision in respect of any matter concerning him- or herself.
A competent person is any person who is legally competent to consent to any action or decision being taken in respect of any matter concerning a child. The child’s parent or legal guardian would qualify as a competent person.
In order for the child to complete the registration process, he or she will need to get the consent of a competent person. Consent by a competent person will usually be given before or at the time of agreement, but it may also be given afterwards by the parent’s guardian’s subsequent ratification of the agreement. The agreement is then validated retroactively.
The child user’s consent can be withdrawn after the child user reaches the age of 18 years and above. The withdrawn consent has to be in writing and directed to Just Brands Africa (PTY) Ltd, Reg. 2013/228381/07, at Just Brands Africa (PTY) Ltd to action within reasonable time. The withdrawn consent can be wholly or in part in which case it needs to be specific to the particular action connected to the consent being withdrawn.
The child user loses the right to cancel the agreement where the child or any person acting on his or her behalf, by act or omission, led the Just Brands Africa (PTY) Ltd, Reg. 2013/228381/07, to believe that he or she had an unfettered legal capacity to agreement, or attempted to obscure or suppress the fact that the capacity was absent.
