PDPA note: The Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA) (as amended in 2024/2025) introduces updated controller terminology, DPO appointment, breach notification requirements, and strengthens rights such as data portability. This notice aligns with those requirements.

4) Where we get your data from

  • Directly from you (registration forms, emails, profile updates, communications).
  • Your organisation (when nominated or authorized to use our services).
  • Service providers (payment processors, analytics tools, communication platforms).
  • Publicly available sources for professional profiles (company pages, LinkedIn) when relevant to our services.

5) Cookies & analytics

Our websites and applications may use essential cookies (security/session management) and analytics to understand aggregate engagement and improve user experience. You'll see a cookie banner with controls when required. Detailed guidance will be posted on the REACH2050 website.

6) Sharing your data (processors & partners)

We use trusted service providers under contract (data processors) solely to deliver REACH2050 services—for example: payment gateways, email/SMS services, cloud hosting, analytics tools, customer support platforms, and content delivery networks.

We do not sell your personal data to third parties. Limited data may be shared where necessary for:

  • Legal compliance or regulatory requirements
  • Protection of our rights, property, or safety
  • With your explicit consent

7) International data transfers

Because REACH2050 uses global SaaS tools and cloud services, data may be processed/stored outside Malaysia. We will ensure appropriate safeguards and comply with Malaysian PDPA cross-border transfer rules (as updated by 2024/2025 amendments and Commissioner guidance).

8) Data retention

  • Core user records: typically 24 months after account closure to support audits, legal compliance, dispute resolution, and service continuity.
  • Financial/transaction data: retained per Malaysian statutory retention rules.
  • Marketing consents: until you withdraw consent or we retire the list.
  • Media and promotional content: retained for archival and promotional purposes unless you object (see your rights). We will endeavour to respect reasonable takedown requests.

9) Your rights

Under Malaysia's PDPA (as amended) you may:

  • Access and request a copy of your personal data;
  • Correct inaccurate or incomplete data;
  • Withdraw consent (for example, marketing) at any time;
  • Object to processing based on legitimate interests where your rights override;
  • Request data portability (where available under the amended PDPA);
  • Complain to Malaysia's Department of Personal Data Protection (PDP Department) if you believe we've mishandled your data.

How to exercise these rights: email privacy@reach2050.com with "REACH2050 – Data Request" in the subject line.

10) Security

We apply administrative, technical, and physical safeguards, including:

  • Role-based access controls
  • Encryption in transit and at rest for sensitive data
  • Regular security assessments
  • Least-privilege access for service providers
  • Vendor Data Processing Agreements (DPAs)

Incident response procedures support mandatory breach notification to the PDP Department and, where required, to affected individuals under the PDPA amendments.
