We may disclose your personal data to third parties, to the extent required by law or if we reasonably believe that use or disclosure is necessary to protect our rights and/or to comply with judicial or regulatory proceedings, a court order or other legal process.

If we are relying on your consent to process your personal information, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. Please note however that this will not affect the lawfulness of the processing before its withdrawal.

6. DATA TRANSFERS AND INTERNATIONAL DATA TRANSFERS

We may transfer or disclose your information we collect about you (including personally identifiable information) to the Company's group of companies including, if any, the Company's parent/holding company, subsidiaries, related and/or associated companies that are located in different countries, including, but not limited to, Malaysia, Singapore and the United States which may be accessed by personnel authorised by us, and in limited circumstances to third parties in compliance with applicable laws, regulations, and/or governmental requests.

By using the Site, you consent to us transferring your data to these countries. Please note that laws vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction, and so laws and regulations relating to privacy and data disclosure, applicable to the places where your information is transferred to or stored, used or processed in, may be different from the laws and regulations applicable to the place where you are a resident.

The Company, the Site, and the services are global by nature and your data can therefore be transferred to anywhere in the world. Because different countries may have different data protection laws than your own country, we take steps to ensure adequate safeguards are in place to protect your data as explained in this Privacy Policy.

Whenever we transfer personal data, we take legally required steps to make sure that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your personal data.

If the Company is involved in any mergers, acquisitions, or sales of assets, we will continue to ensure the confidentiality of all personal data. We will also notify all interested users if their personal information is transferred to another organization or is subject to a different privacy policy.

7. SECURITY OF PERSONAL DATA

We have implemented generally accepted standards of technology and operational security, in order to protect your personal data against accidental, unauthorised or unlawful access, use, processing, alteration, disclosure, transfer, erasure, or loss. Despite our use of appropriate security measures, any transmission of data over the internet (including by email) is never completely secure. We endeavour to protect personal data to the furthest extent possible, but we cannot guarantee the security of data transmitted to or by us. We will be responsible for any failure of our physical systems, technology or management error on our end that may result in any unauthorised disclosure or compromise to your personal data. We will let you know in accordance with applicable law if a breach occurs that may have compromised the privacy or security of your personal data.

We will assess the personal data security impact regularly to comply with basic principles for personal data security and when new requirements are effective and legally binding and take appropriate actions to protect personal data.

All information you provide to us is stored on our secure servers or hosted by credible third-party service providers.

8. DATA RETENTION

We attempt to collect personal data that is important for the purposes specified above and try to store this information not longer than reasonably required. We keep your information for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy unless otherwise required by law.

We will only keep your personal information for as long as necessary to provide you for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. After the expiration of such period, all data will be deleted and removed, or unless you request us to delete your data.

Note that if you ask us to remove your personal data, we may retain your data as necessary to comply with our legal obligations. We may further retain your data in an anonymous or aggregated form where that information would not identify you personally.

9. GENERAL DATA PROTECTION REGULATION (GDPR)

We maintain our commitment to protect the privacy of our users and abide by the legislation of all regions we operate. We are willing to deliver the best experience to our end-users. Considering the above, personal data (if any) of our users who are habitually located in the European Union, is processed under the “purposes of legitimate interests” as outlined in Article 6(1)(f) of the General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (“GDPR”). GDPR is a European Union law governing privacy and data protection for all residents of the EU that is intended to empower the citizens of the European Union to control their personal information. You have the right to access, rectify, download or erase your information, as well as the right to restrict and object to certain processing of your information. While some of these rights apply generally, certain rights apply only in certain limited circumstances.

The provisions of GDPR can be also applied to how data is processed and verified outside the European Union. Such an approach also helps us to fight against fraud and reimburse our contractors and agents. In accordance with the applicable laws, users are authorized to access and modify their own data held by the companies, which includes data collection, ad tracking, surveys, cookies, location data, and every other bit of a user's “digital footprint”. Users are also entitled to transmit their personal details to other organizations. The GDPR also enforces companies to determine their in-house data security policies. Users are to note that your information will be transferred outside of Europe, including to the United States, Malaysia and Singapore.

You may read more about these rights at: EU Citizen Rights.

10. FOR CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS

The California Code of Regulations defines a “resident” as:

every individual who is in the State of California for other than a temporary or transitory purpose and
every individual who is domiciled in the State of California who is outside the State of California for a temporary or transitory purpose.

All other individuals are defined as “non-residents”.

If you are a resident of the State of California, you are granted specific rights regarding access to your personal information. We may use your personal information for our own business purposes, such as for undertaking internal research for technological development and demonstration. This is not considered to be “selling” of your personal data.

If you are a resident of the State of California and would like to make such a request, please contact us in the manner set out below. If you are using an authorized agent to exercise your right to opt-out, we may deny a request if the authorized agent does not submit proof that they have been validly authorized to act on your behalf.

11. CHILDREN'S ONLINE PRIVACY PROTECTION

We are in compliance with the requirements of the California Online Privacy Protection Act (CalOPPA - U.S regulation), the GDPR and the PDPA regarding the protection of the personal data of minors. This Site is directed to adults, and we do not knowingly collect personal information online from minors under the age of 18 without prior parental consent.

If we become aware that we have inadvertently received personal information from a visitor under the age of 18 on the Site, we will delete the information from our records. If you are the parent or guardian of a child under the age of 18, and you believe your child has provided personal information to our Site that you would like us to delete, please contact us. Also, if you are under the age of 18, you must not submit personal information to us.
