COLLECTING YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

Depending on your involvement with our website, we may collect personal information about you such as your name, your contact details, and other information. We collect this information when you contact us, or when we ask you for it and you, or others on your behalf authorised by you, provide it to us. Where you prefer that we do not collect your personal information, we may not be able to assist you or provide services or undertake activities that we would otherwise provide or undertake. Where reasonably possible, we seek to work with information and records from which personal information has been removed. When we use and disclose personal information, in addition to complying with privacy laws and requirements, we comply with applicable laws including those relating to our products. We also collect information that may or may not include your personal information, through technology and tools that tell us when a computer or device has visited or accessed our content. Those tools include services from search engines and other companies that help us to tailor our content, products and services to better suit consumers and customers. Search engines provide facilities to allow you to indicate your preferences in relation to the use of those tools in connection with computers and other devices controlled or used by you.

USING YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

Generally, we use your personal information for our activities and business, and in our efforts to expand and improve our business. Examples include:

• providing information about our products and services, including dealing with any enquiry or complaint;
• providing information to professional practitioners about our products and services, including about how our products might be of benefit to members of the public to whom they provide advice;
• operating programmes and forums in different media in which you are able to share information, including your personal information;
• providing you with marketing communications, newsletters and alerts, surveys and invitations and offers for products including new products that may be of interest to you (and if we do so, we will provide you with a way to opt out);
• to administer and manage promotions and competitions;

STORING AND DISCLOSING YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

We use various systems and services to safeguard the personal information we store and use, as part of our business systems and processes. Like many companies, these systems and services may be international in operation and include other parts of VIPRH and our related companies or entities overseas. They may also be provided by other people and organisations assisting us with services, located both in and outside Malaysia. When we pass on or share your personal information in this way, we take steps to ensure it is treated in the same way that we would treat it. We do our best to keep records of personal information up to date and accurate and not to keep personal information that is no longer needed. We sometimes have to pass on your personal information to third parties for legal or safety reasons or other special circumstances.
