As the holiday season approaches, bringing more visitors to residential estates and gated communities, Glovent Solutions is urging property managers and community leaders to modernise their security and privacy protocols by replacing outdated physical logbooks with secure digital licence-scanning systems. This shift is crucial to addressing the growing concerns surrounding data protection and the safety of personal information, and that's where paperless solutions for estates are so important.
While physical logbooks have been a longstanding method for visitor registration, Glovent emphasises the risks they pose under the Protection of Personal Information Act (Popia) and how outdated paper-based systems can put sensitive personal data at risk.

“Traditional sign-in books are no longer suitable in the age of digital privacy regulations,” says Anton Potgieter, CEO of Glovent. “These books are vulnerable to theft and unauthorised access, and anyone can easily flip through them to see details about previous visitors, including names, addresses and contact information – information that should be kept private.
