Summary: xyz complies with Malaysia's Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA). We collect only what's needed to connect you with service providers, we never sell your data, and you can request export or deletion at any time.

1. Who We Are

Data We Do NOT Collect

3. How We Use Your Data

We use your data to provide and improve our services, process bookings and payments, verify provider identities, send transactional emails (booking confirmations, payment receipts), resolve disputes, comply with Malaysian law, and communicate important platform updates.

We do not use your data for third-party advertising or sell it to any party.

4. Legal Basis (PDPA 2010)

Under Malaysia's Personal Data Protection Act 2010, we process your data based on your consent (provided at registration), contractual necessity (to fulfil bookings), and legitimate interest (platform security and fraud prevention).

6. Cross-Border Data Transfers

Some data is processed outside Malaysia (Singapore, Japan, EU) by our service providers. All transfers are protected by appropriate security measures and contractual obligations consistent with PDPA requirements.

7. Data Security

We protect your data with encryption in transit (HTTPS/TLS) and at rest, Row-Level Security on all database tables ensuring users can only access their own data, secure server-side payment processing (no card details ever touch our servers), input sanitisation to prevent injection attacks, and regular security audits following OWASP Mobile Top 10 standards.

8. Data Retention

Active account data is retained while your account is open. Booking records are kept for 7 years (Malaysian tax/business requirements). Chat messages are retained for 1 year after conversation ends. Deleted accounts enter a 30-day grace period, after which data is permanently anonymised (booking records are retained with anonymised references for financial compliance).
