STATEMENT OF PERSONAL INFORMATION (POPIA)
Legal basis -I understand that the South African Constitution recognises my right to privacy as a fundamental right. The Protection of Personal Information Act, 2013 protects me from harm by protecting my personal information. There are also other laws with this aim. You are a private accredited institution and when you deal with me, you are performing public functions in terms of the Higher Education Act, 1997. This means that I need to give you some of my personal information when I apply to study at the International College of Bible and Missions UBC) and when I register as a student. You use this information to carry out your mission to equip and inspire men and women for Bible teaching ministries.Aim of this statement - This statement tells me about my rights to my personal information. It also tells me about your rights to the personal information that I give you and that you get from others. The statement deals with my and your rights when I apply for admission to an academic programme, when I register as a student and when I am no longer registered at ICBM . What is personal information? Personal information is any information that can identify me as an individual. Examples of personal information are my name, personal identification number, contact information, background information, photograph, academic qualifications, details of academic performance and results from educational institutions that I attend at present or attended in the past. It may also include my National Benchmark scores.The basis on which I provide you with personal information and you obtain personal information about me - I give you my personal information with my consent. If I am under the age of 18 years, the law treats me as a minor. You then also need the consent of the person who may legally consent to actions or decisions concerning me. So, I promise that I would submit my application and register as a student with such consent if it is needed. I give you my personal information voluntarily. I understand that you must have my personal information to process my application and to provide education to me when I register as a student. I also understand that you cannot deal with my application or provide education to me if I do not give you the personal information you need. I also consent that you may get personal information that you need to consider my application and to provide education to me from others (for example, the Department of Basic Education, other educational institutions and the Department of Home Affairs). When you get information from others, you will need to give them some of my personal information. I consent and agree to this.Your purposes for processing my personal information -You need to consider my personal information when you determine whether I meet the selection and admission requirements to study at ICBM. When I register as a student, you need my personal information to provide education to me and carry out the academic administration relating to the programme for which I register. You use electronic learning platforms to provide a range of learning options. This may include from time-to-time platforms like Blackboard Collaborate, Zoom, Microsoft Teams, YouTube and WhatsApp. Since it is voluntary for me to share video, audio and text on these platforms, the privacy risk for me is limited. You collect analysis data when I use these platforms to improve your services to students and in the interest of my learning progress and support. When I graduate, you need my personal information to keep in contact with me as an alumnus and to verify that I have obtained the qualifications or have undertaken the studies that I represent to others I have obtained from you of undertaken with you.

You must answer me free of charge.Right to object - I may object or protest that you process my personal information. You must do what I ask. However, that will end my application and you may then not be able to provide education to me.
STUDENT STATEMENT OF FAITH
All prospective ICBM students are required to affirm these essential Christian Doctrines: 1. The Authority and Inerrancy of Scripture I believe that all of Scripture, both the Old and New Testaments, is the complete inspired Word of God; and that its inspiration and authority extends fully to all parts of Scripture; it is a trustworthy record of God’s revelation of Himself and the way of salvation to humanity and is absolute in authority for life and faith, final in its content, and is without error (Psalm 119:105; Luke 21:33; 24:27; 1 Corinthians 2:13; 1 Thessalonians 2:13; 2 Timothy 3:16; 2 Peter 1:19-21; Revelation 22:18-20). 2. The Trinity I believe in one God who exists eternally as three co-equal persons, God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit; I also believe that the Father, Son and Holy Spirit share the same divine nature and attributes (Deuteronomy 4:35; 6:4; Isaiah 45:22; Matthew 3:16-17; 28:19; Mark 12:29; John 1:3; 15:26; 1 Corinthians 8:4-6; Ephesians 4:4-6; Hebrews 1:1-3; Revelation 4:11).3. The Full Deity and Humanity of Christ I believe that Jesus Christ is fully man and fully God, that He was born of a virgin and that He lived a sinless human life on earth (John 1:1-3; 1:18; 2:25; 5:23, 25; 8:46; 14:23; 16:30; 20:28; Colossians 1:16,17; Hebrews 1:8; 4:15; 1 John 3:5). 4. The Spiritual Lostness of Mankind I believe that all of mankind is lost, alienated from God, and dead in their sins. Although mankind was created in God’s image, original sin resulted in the penalty of both physical and spiritual death. Mankind thus inherited a sin nature for which God alone provides the solution. (Genesis 1:26; 2:7,16,17; 3:15; Psalm 14:1-3; Isaiah 64:6; John 3:5,16,18; Romans 1:18-32; 3:10-12; 5:8,12; Ephesians 2:1).5. The Substitutionary Atonement and Bodily Resurrection of Christ I believe that Jesus Christ accomplished our redemption through His death on the cross as a Substitutionary sacrifice and full Propitiation for our sins, and that our redemption is made sure to us by His bodily resurrection from the dead (Romans 3:24,25; 8:34; Hebrews 4:14-16; 1 Peter 1:3-5; 1 John 2:1,2).6. Salvation by Faith Alone in Christ Alone I believe that salvation is a free gift from God through His grace and is received by personal faith in the Lord Jesus Christ (John 1:12; 3:16; 5:24; 10:28; Romans 8:28-39; Ephesians 2:8,9; 1 Peter 1:18-23; 1 John 5:10-13; Hebrews 7:25; Jude 24). 7. The Physical Return of Christ I believe in the imminent, personal second coming of the Lord Jesus Christ to the earth to establish His kingdom (1 Corinthians 15:23,24; 1 Thessalonians 4:13-17; Revelation 20:4,5).
