You have important rights regarding your personal information. You can request access to your data, ask for corrections if information is inaccurate, or request deletion of your personal information, subject to certain legal exceptions. We will respond to legitimate requests within 30 days. You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings.

If you believe we have violated your privacy rights, you can lodge a complaint with the relevant Malaysian data protection authority.

Data Security and Protection

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. Our website uses encryption protocols (SSL/TLS) to secure data transmission. However, no method of transmission over the internet is completely secure. While we strive to protect your information, we cannot guarantee absolute security. We limit access to personal data to employees and service providers who need it for legitimate business purposes. We conduct regular security assessments and maintain appropriate safeguards aligned with Malaysian data protection standards and best practices.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies to enhance your experience on our website. Essential cookies enable core functionality and security features. Performance cookies help us understand how you use our site and identify areas for improvement. Preference cookies remember your settings and choices. Most browsers allow you to control cookies through settings, though disabling some cookies may affect site functionality. We also use analytics tools to track anonymized usage patterns that help us understand audience demographics and content effectiveness. Third-party services may place their own cookies subject to their privacy policies. We do not sell your personal information to advertisers or third parties.

Data Retention

We retain your personal information only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy or as required by law. Educational registration data is typically retained for the duration of your account. Usage and analytics data are aggregated and anonymized after 12 months. If you request deletion, we will remove your personal information within 30 days, except where legal obligations require retention. We maintain backup copies for reasonable periods to ensure service continuity and comply with Malaysian regulatory requirements regarding record-keeping.

Third-Party Links and Services

Our website may contain links to external websites providing additional Islamic financial resources or services. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party sites. We recommend reviewing their privacy policies before sharing information. If you access third-party services through our site, their data collection and use policies apply independently of ours. We do not control how external websites handle your information, and we encourage you to exercise caution when providing data to unaffiliated organizations.

Children’s Privacy

Our website is designed for general audiences and educational purposes. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 18 years old. If we become aware that a child has provided information without parental consent, we will take immediate steps to delete such data. Parents or guardians who believe their child has provided information to us should contact us immediately. We comply with Malaysian laws protecting children’s privacy and digital safety.
