This manual is being prepared. It will be completed and published here before Beyond is offered for sale. Until then, you can still ask us for records: write to hello@beyondprop.co, and we will deal with your request under the Promotion of Access to Information Act, 2000 (PAIA) and the Protection of Personal Information Act, 2013 (POPIA).
