We do not sell your personal data, and we do not pass it to advertisers.
Who we share it with
- Service providers who help us run the site and our services, such as our website host, our email and newsletter platform, our payment provider and couriers. They may only use your data to provide that service to us.

- A partner organisation, such as a bank or developer, only if you have asked us to introduce you and have agreed to it.
- Authorities, where the law requires it.
Some of our service providers store data on servers outside Malaysia. Where that happens, we take steps to make sure it stays protected.
How long we keep it
We keep your information for as long as we need it for the purpose you gave it to us, and for as long as the law requires us to keep records. When we no longer need it, we delete it or make it anonymous. Newsletter addresses that have gone inactive are removed from time to time.
Your choices and rights
- You can ask for a copy of the personal data we hold about you, and ask us to correct it.
- You can withdraw your consent, or ask us to stop using your data for a particular purpose. If you do, we may not be able to provide some services, such as the TEG Card.
- Every newsletter has an unsubscribe link, and you can also ask us to remove you.
Giving us your details is your choice. Some, such as your name and email address, are needed for us to reply or to process an application.
