Scope
Who this policy covers
This policy applies to rickychong.com and direct enquiries sent to Ricky Chong about consulting services. The site operates from Malaysia. Personal data is handled with regard to applicable Malaysian law, including the Personal Data Protection Act 2010.

Providers
Services that may handle data
The site relies on service providers for website hosting, email delivery, booking and web fonts. A Calendly link takes you to Calendly to provide booking information. Google Fonts may receive technical request data when the site loads its typefaces.
These providers may process information in other jurisdictions under their own terms and privacy notices. Information may also be disclosed when required by law, or when reasonably necessary to protect legal rights and service security.
Browser data
Cookies and local storage
The site does not currently run advertising trackers or analytics code. The homepage stores your selected language in local browser storage so the preference can be restored on a later visit. That preference remains on your device unless you clear it.
Linked services may use cookies or similar technologies under their own policies.
Control
Retention, security and your choices
Personal information is kept only as long as reasonably needed for the purpose for which it was collected, business record keeping, dispute handling or legal obligations. Reasonable safeguards are used, but no online service or email system can promise absolute security.
You may ask about personal information held about you, request a correction or raise a privacy concern. You may also withdraw consent where processing depends on consent. Available rights and any exceptions depend on the law that applies.
