Privacy Policy
Last updated: 12 May 2025 · Effective: 12 May 2025
Pensaria ("we", "us", or "our") operates from 17 Persiaran Greentown 3, Greentown Business Centre, 30450 Ipoh, Perak, Malaysia. This policy describes the personal data we collect through this website and through our session-based organisational services, how that data is used, and the rights available to you under Malaysian law — principally the Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA).
We do not offer financial advice, retirement planning counsel, or any form of regulated service. Our work is organisational: we help households understand where their documents are and how publicly available reference material is structured. This policy applies to all data gathered through this site and through direct engagement with our team.
1. Data We Collect
We collect personal data in two ways: directly when you submit our contact form or correspond with us, and indirectly through standard website activity records.
Data you provide directly
- Full name and preferred form of address
- Email address and telephone number
- The nature of your enquiry or session interest
- Any additional context you include in your message
Data collected automatically
- IP address and approximate geographic location
- Browser type, operating system, and device category
- Pages visited, time spent, and referring URL
- Cookie identifiers (see Section 5 and our Cookie Policy)
Legal basis for processing
- Consent — when you submit our contact form or accept non-essential cookies
- Legitimate interest — for basic site analytics that help us improve our pages
- Contractual necessity — for communication related to a booked session
2. How We Use Your Data
Your personal data is used strictly for the purposes described below. We do not sell, rent, or trade your information with third parties for marketing purposes.
- Responding to enquiries you send through the contact form or by phone
- Arranging and confirming session bookings
- Sending relevant follow-up correspondence with your consent
- Improving the content and structure of this website using aggregated analytics
- Meeting our obligations under Malaysian law, including PDPA compliance
We do not use your data for automated decision-making or profiling.
3. Data Sharing
We share data only where strictly necessary:
- Website hosting and infrastructure providers — who hold data only as data processors under our instruction
- Analytics services — aggregated, non-personally-identifiable where possible
- Regulatory or law enforcement bodies — only when required by applicable Malaysian law
Any third-party processor we engage is required to handle data in accordance with the PDPA and under terms no less protective than those in this policy.
4. Data Retention
We keep your data only for as long as needed for the purpose it was collected:
- Enquiry and contact records: up to 24 months from last contact
- Session records for completed bookings: up to 36 months for administrative purposes
- Website analytics data: up to 14 months in rolling cycles
- Cookie data: as specified in our Cookie Policy
When data is no longer needed, it is deleted or anonymised.
5. Cookies
This website uses cookies — small text files stored on your device. We use:
- Essential cookies — required for basic site function; always active
- Preference cookies — to remember your cookie choices between visits
- Analytics cookies — to understand how visitors move through the site (optional)
- Marketing cookies — for outreach measurement (optional; disabled by default)
You can review and adjust your preferences at any time on our Cookie Policy page. Non-essential cookies are only activated following your consent.
6. Data Protection Measures
We take reasonable and practical steps to protect the personal data we hold:
- Data in transit is protected using TLS encryption
- Access to contact records is limited to staff who require it for their work
- We review our data handling practices periodically
- In the event of a data breach that poses a risk to your rights, we will notify you and, where required, the relevant authority within the period set by law
7. Your Rights Under the PDPA
Under the Personal Data Protection Act 2010, you have the following rights in relation to personal data we hold about you:
Right to Access
Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
Right to Correction
Ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete data.
Right to Withdraw Consent
Withdraw consent for processing at any time, without affecting prior processing.
Right to Prevent Processing

8. Third-Party Links
This site may contain links to external resources — for example, publicly available government publications about retirement documentation. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites. We encourage you to read their privacy policies before sharing personal information with them.
9. Children's Privacy
Our services are intended for adults, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from persons under 18 years of age. If you believe we have inadvertently collected data from a minor, please contact us and we will remove it promptly.
10. Policy Updates
We may update this policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or in Malaysian law. When we make material changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Continued use of this website after any update constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
