CRICKET SOUTH AFRICA

MEDIA (RIGHTS HOLDERS) ACCREDITATION — STANDARD TERMS AND CONDITIONS

Version 1.0 | Effective from 1 August 2026 | Applicable to all CSA Events until amended, replaced or withdrawn by CSA

Set out below are the media (rights holders) accreditation terms and conditions ("Accreditation Terms and Conditions") applicable to any cricket match, series, tournament, tour or other event organised, sanctioned or licensed by Cricket South Africa (NPC) ("CSA") (each, an "Event"). These Accreditation Terms and Conditions constitute CSA's standing accreditation terms for media rights holders and apply to every Event unless and until they are amended, supplemented or replaced by CSA. The name, dates, Venue(s) and any Event-specific requirements applicable to a particular Event will be published or otherwise communicated by the Organiser (as defined below) when accreditation applications open for that Event.

All individuals intending to attend an Event as a media representative MUST complete or approve the completion of the relevant Accreditation application in the format specified by the Organiser, including an acknowledgement by each Applicant on behalf of themselves or their personnel that they agree to be bound by these Accreditation Terms and Conditions.

All Accreditation applications must include one recent electronic head and shoulders photograph of the Applicant and, if requested by or on behalf of the Organiser, a letter of endorsement on a company letterhead from the Applicant's employer certifying that the Applicant is attending the Event for legitimate work reasons.

Applicants will be advised whether or not their application for Accreditation has been approved by email or other appropriate method of communication. The Organiser will not be responsible for non-notification of Applicants who provide inaccurate email addresses or contact details. No application for Accreditation will be considered unless it is made on the appropriate form.

Where applicable, the Organiser shall provide, to the appropriate party, a letter in support of a visa application for any successful Applicant for Accreditation. However, all Applicants acknowledge that the Organiser does not have any responsibility to any Applicant for the issuance of any entry visa or other required licence, permit or permission (which shall be solely determined by the relevant government authorities) and that any such letter is not, in itself, a guarantee of successfully securing an entry visa or other required licence, permit or permission to visit and work within South Africa for the Event. All such applications should be made sufficiently in advance of the Event. It is the sole responsibility of the Applicant to ensure that they have made all necessary arrangements ahead of travel to South Africa.

Accreditation, if granted by the Organiser, will be subject to the Applicant complying strictly with these Accreditation Terms and Conditions. Failure to abide by the Accreditation Terms and Conditions could result in the Accreditation of the Applicant (and the Accreditation of anyone else employed by or representing the Applicant's employer) being revoked for the whole or any part of the Event.

Applicants should make and retain a copy of their completed application for Accreditation for reference.

Privacy Notice

As a condition of Accreditation, you agree to the use and disclosure of your personal information (including special personal information) to third parties, including the Organiser, CSA, any Host Stadium(s), their employees, agents and contractors, and to South African governmental departments and agencies, to enable them to exercise their responsibilities in relation to the Event. The Organiser retains ultimate discretion in granting or refusing Accreditation for the Event.

The use and disclosure of your personal information will be managed in accordance with the terms of the Privacy Policy and as further described in paragraph 16.3 below.

6. CONDUCT

6.1 Applicants and Accredited Parties agree to conduct themselves in a way that will not bring the Event, CSA, the Organiser, a Host Stadium, any of the Commercial Partners or the game of cricket into disrepute or ridicule. Applicants and Accredited Parties agree not to interfere with members of the media, spectators, rights holders, players, teams or play at any time during the Event. Nothing in these Accreditation Terms and Conditions is intended to be, or shall be, interpreted as undermining editorial independence or as restricting or preventing the reasonable exercise of normal journalistic activities, including expressions of comment and fair criticism.

6.2 Accredited Parties shall not engage in any conduct which, in the absolute discretion of the Organiser, could prejudice or undermine the value of any of the commercial rights relating to the Event. Such conduct may include, by way of example (and without limitation), the provision of voice or text commentary, analysis or updates to third parties unrelated to the Accredited Party's employer, client or commissioning editor. If an Accredited Party fails to comply with this paragraph, the Organiser may withdraw that Accredited Party's Accreditation temporarily or permanently.

7. ANTI-CORRUPTION

7.1 The Applicant acknowledges that CSA has policies and procedures in place to eradicate conduct of a corrupt nature which is prejudicial to the interests of the game of cricket. By completing the application for Accreditation, Applicants and Accredited Parties agree that any information which they receive as a result of obtaining an Accreditation shall be for the sole purpose of media reporting or conducting other legitimate Event business. The information obtained whilst in the possession of an Accreditation Pass shall not be used or disclosed by an Accredited Party for the purposes of obtaining financial gain or the creation or collection of data, whether directly or indirectly, for the purpose of gambling, betting, gaming or any other form of financial speculation.

7.2 The Accredited Party shall not, whilst in any Venue:

7.2.1 use any electronic device to engage in any online betting or gambling activities in relation to the result, progress, conduct or any other aspect of any Match, including but not limited to ball-by-ball spread betting and/or the use of betting exchanges nor facilitate in any manner whatsoever the conduct of any form of betting or gambling whether within or outside the Venue by any third party; or

7.2.2 offer to any third party any bribe or other reward to fix or to contrive in any way or otherwise improperly influence the result, progress, conduct or any other aspect of the Match.

7.3 Each Accredited Party shall report any suspicious betting or other potentially corrupt activity of which they become aware whilst present in any Venue as soon as reasonably practicable to: (a) for international Matches, the ICC's Anti-Corruption and Security Unit (ACSU) representative present at the Event; or (b) for domestic Matches, or where no ACSU representative is present at the Event, CSA's Anti-Corruption contact, Jenny Naidoo, at JennyN@cricket.co.za.

8. COLLECTION OF ACCREDITATION PASSES

Please note that the Accreditation Pass may only be collected in person by the Accredited Party and not by a representative of the Accredited Party unless otherwise advised or permitted by the Organiser. Proof of identity will be required on collection of the Accreditation Pass in the form of photographic identification (e.g. passport or driving licence) and a copy of the photographic identification may be made. Upon collection of the Accreditation Pass, the Accredited Party may be required to sign a separate form to confirm receipt of the Accreditation Pass and agreement to these Accreditation Terms and Conditions.

9. USE OF ACCREDITATION

9.1 The Organiser reserves the right to amend or limit an Accreditation and will notify the Accredited Party accordingly. The Organiser will provide the Accredited Party with one Accreditation Pass which must be clearly displayed at all times on the Accredited Party's person once inside the Venue. Accredited Parties are requested to carry valid photographic identification at all times whilst in any Venue. Each Accredited Party is permitted access to any Venue only for the duration of each Match and to any Zone(s) indicated on the Accreditation Pass. For security reasons, Accredited Parties must ensure that photographic images or other detailed representations of their Accreditation Pass are not made available online (including but not limited to social media), either by themselves or any third party.

9.2 The loss, theft or mislaying of an Accreditation Pass must be reported in person at the Accreditation Centre or CSA's offices. A police report, supported by a sworn affidavit, will be required before any replacement Accreditation Pass will be considered, and no exceptions will be made.

9.3 Whether a replacement Accreditation Pass is issued is at the sole discretion of the Organiser. No temporary Accreditation Pass will be issued pending that decision, and the Organiser may require payment of a replacement fee (as published by CSA from time to time) as a condition of any replacement Accreditation Pass being collected.

9.4 If a replacement Accreditation Pass is not issued, the Accredited Party may be escorted from the Venue by security.

10. ACCESS TO VENUES

10.1 Access to a Venue shall only be granted upon presentation of a valid Accreditation Pass. On the request of the security staff involved in the security check, a national identity card, passport or other form of photographic identification may also be required to be shown. In order to remain at the Venue, the Accredited Party must comply with the safety and security provisions set out in these Accreditation Terms and Conditions as well as any safety and security regulations applicable at the Venue.

10.2 All Accredited Parties acknowledge that they shall travel to and from South Africa, travel around South Africa outside Venues and be present inside Venues at their own risk. In the event of the occurrence of an incident which causes damage or loss involving (a) death, (b) bodily injury or (c) permanent damage to health, CSA, the Organiser and/or a Host Stadium shall only be liable if any of their authorised representatives or agents caused such damage or loss through their negligence. In respect of all other incidents causing damage or loss, neither CSA nor the Organiser nor a Host Stadium shall be liable for any damage or loss suffered by the Accredited Party.

10.3 Access to a Venue will be refused to any person noticeably under the influence of alcohol, narcotics or any behaviour-modifying substance, or to any person behaving or likely to behave violently, harmfully or in a manner contrary to public order. Furthermore, access will be refused to any person whose appearance or behaviour, in the opinion of the Organiser and/or a Host Stadium and/or any Authorised Person, negatively affects the public standing of the Event, the Organiser, CSA, any Commercial Partner and/or a Host Stadium.

10.4 All Accredited Parties acknowledge that they shall abide by the terms of CSA's Anti-Discrimination Policy (available for review on the Website). Without prejudice to the foregoing, any conduct by the Accredited Party (whether through the use of language, gestures or otherwise) which is likely to offend, insult, humiliate, intimidate, threaten, disparage or vilify any reasonable person (including, without limitation, any player, match official, Authorised Person or other spectator) on the basis of their race, colour, nationality, ethnic origin, sex, gender, sexual orientation, religion, disability, marital status or pregnancy/maternity status will result in their Accreditation being withdrawn, ejection from the Venue and possible further action such as criminal prosecution, identification by way of being photographed and/or being captured by video camera and a life-ban being imposed on the Accredited Party.

10.5 All persons at the Venue are strictly prohibited from using, possessing or holding promotional, commercial, political, religious, or racist objects and materials, offering to sell, selling or possessing with intent to sell, goods such as (but without limitation) drinks, food, souvenirs, clothes, promotional and/or commercial items, unless specifically approved in advance by the Organiser or a Host Stadium in writing. All such items may be removed or temporarily confiscated by the Organiser, a Host Stadium and/or any other Authorised Person(s).

10.6 All Accreditation Passes remain the property of the Organiser and shall, upon request by the Organiser or by an Authorised Person, be returned immediately to the Organiser (or to the Authorised Person).

10.7 Access to any Venue with any professional audio or audiovisual equipment shall be governed by the terms of the Accredited Party's employer's agreement with the Organiser, the relevant Host Broadcaster, Production Partner or their Licensees, as applicable.

Photographs and biometrics: we capture and use your photograph to identify you and to produce your pass, on the basis of your explicit consent.

Children (under 18): where an applicant is a minor, we collect and process their personal information only with the consent of a parent or legal guardian, and in line with CSA's Child Protection Safeguarding Policy.

6. Who we share it with

Your personal information may be shared with the Organiser, Cricket South Africa (CSA), any Host Stadium(s) and their employees, agents and contractors, and South African governmental departments and agencies, to enable them to exercise their responsibilities in relation to the Event. We also use a third-party service to print accreditation passes. Where we use operators (service providers) to process personal information on our behalf, they are bound to keep it secure and to process it only on our instructions.

7. Security screening

As part of accreditation, and as set out in the Accreditation Terms and Conditions, you consent to screening by relevant authorities (which may include national police, counter-terrorism and personnel security checks) and to the results being shared for security, disciplinary and administrative purposes with the parties listed in section 6 and relevant investigatory or regulatory bodies.

8. Cross-border transfers

Where an Event is hosted outside South Africa, or involves the ICC or an overseas host body, limited personal information may be transferred across borders for that Event. Any such transfer is made in accordance with POPIA.

9. How long we keep it

We keep your personal information only for as long as necessary, in line with CSA's IT Data Retention Policy and the Accreditation Data Retention Schedule. In summary:

• Accreditation application record (name, contact, role, zones): retained for the Event and up to 5 years thereafter, then de-identified; de-identified data may be kept indefinitely for analysis and reporting.
• Photograph and ID or passport number (special information): retained for the Season or Event and 24 months thereafter, then securely deleted.
• Consent records (self or guardian): retained as evidence of lawful processing for 5 years.
• Marketing and communication contact data: retained for a maximum of 5 years, or until you opt out.

10. How we protect it

CSA protects your personal information in line with its IT Information Security Policy. Measures include network segregation, controlled access on a need-to-know basis, Single Sign-On (Entra ID) and Multi-Factor Authentication, encryption of stored credentials, endpoint detection and response, firewalls, regular patching and vulnerability testing, and monitoring of network traffic. Security incidents are managed under CSA's incident response process.

11. Your rights

Under POPIA you have the right to be told what we hold about you, to access it, to have it corrected or deleted, to object to its processing, and to withdraw consent (which will not affect processing already carried out). To exercise any of these, contact the Information Officer at accreditation@cricket.co.za. Requests for access to records are handled under CSA's PAIA Manual.
