Identity and Role of the Data Controller

learnscopery operates this non-commercial informational website focused on corporate programming topics. We act as the data controller under Malaysia's Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA) and are responsible for determining the purposes and means of processing any personal data collected through the site.

Scope of This Notice

This privacy policy applies to all visitors to the website, including those who access our blog content, contact form, or cookie banner. It covers individuals located in Malaysia or whose data is processed in connection with our operations based here.

Categories of Personal Data Collected

We collect personal data such as name, email address, and any message details submitted via the contact form. Additional data may include IP addresses, browser type, and usage information from cookies or similar technologies. Sources include direct submissions from visitors and automated collection through site interactions.

Purposes of Processing and Legal Basis

Data is processed to respond to contact form inquiries, maintain the blog, manage cookies for site functionality, and improve overall user experience. The legal basis under PDPA includes consent where obtained, legitimate interests in operating an informational site, and compliance with legal obligations. Each purpose is explained with clear options for visitors to understand implications.

Requirement to Provide Data and Consequences

Providing personal data through forms is voluntary. However, failure to supply required details may prevent us from responding to inquiries or delivering requested information. No mandatory data collection occurs beyond what is needed for basic site operation.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance functionality and analyze traffic. A site-wide cookie banner allows visitors to manage preferences. Please refer to our separate Cookie Policy for detailed information on types, durations, and controls available.

Processors, Recipients and Legal Disclosures

Service providers such as hosting platforms or analytics tools may process data on our behalf as processors. Categories include IT support and content delivery networks. Disclosures occur only when required by law or to protect our rights, with appropriate safeguards in place.

International Transfers

Some processors may be located outside Malaysia. When transfers occur, we ensure adequate protection through contractual clauses or other PDPA-compliant safeguards to maintain data security during cross-border processing.

Retention Periods

Personal data is retained only as long as necessary for the stated purposes or to meet legal requirements. Criteria include the duration needed to handle inquiries, maintain blog analytics, or comply with regulatory obligations, after which data is securely deleted or anonymized.

Security and Data Minimisation

We implement reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect data against unauthorised access or loss. Data minimisation principles are followed by collecting only what is essential, without making absolute guarantees against all possible risks.

Data Subject Rights

Under PDPA, individuals have rights to access, correct, or delete their personal data. To exercise these, contact us using the details on our Contacts page or via [email protected] and +60 3-7727 7018. Requests will be handled promptly in line with legal timelines.

Withdrawing Consent and Objecting to Marketing

Where processing relies on consent, it can be withdrawn at any time by notifying us. Visitors may also object to any direct marketing or profiling activities by reaching out through the contact form or Suite 1510, 15th Floor, Block A (Lobby 2), Damansara Intan, No 1 Jalan SS 20/27, Damansara Utama, 47400 Petaling Jaya, Selangor, Malaysia.

Right to Complain

If you believe your data has been mishandled, you may lodge a complaint with the Personal Data Protection Commissioner of Malaysia, the competent supervisory authority under PDPA.

Children and Age Restrictions

The site is intended for a professional audience engaged in corporate programming and does not knowingly collect data from individuals under 18. If such data is identified, it will be deleted promptly.

Automated Decision-Making and Profiling

We do not engage in automated decision-making or profiling that produces legal or significant effects on individuals. Any analytics used are for aggregate insights only.

We may update this policy periodically to reflect legal or operational changes. The effective date will be revised accordingly, and visitors are encouraged to review it regularly for the latest information.
