eduroam in South Africa is governed by a national policy in conjunction with the global eduroam Compliance Statement and the eduroam service definition.
The current eduroam National Policy for South Africa was ratified by TENET's board of directors on 12 December 2012 and has subsequently had one amendment.
In addition, the eduroam service has a number of privacy notices and statements available:
With the advent of the South African Identity Federation (SAFIRE), attempts are being made to standardise the policy framework for all identity federation services. In addition, TENET has restructured its standard terms and conditions to operate as a master services framework. Both these changes will ultimately result in the eduroam service being subsumed into a more generic framework for NREN services.
