Privacy Policy

Deals Malaysia Daily (“we”, “us”) operates the website at dealsmalaysia-daily.com (“Site”, including www.dealsmalaysia-daily.com). This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your choices — including cookies, analytics, and affiliate tracking — when you use our technology reviews and deals content aimed at Malaysian readers.

Information we collect

Information you provide

When you contact us or subscribe to a newsletter, you may provide your name, email address, and message content. We use this only to respond to you or deliver the subscription you requested.

Information collected automatically

When you visit the Site, our hosting provider and (if enabled) analytics tools may process technical data such as IP address (often in truncated or aggregated form), browser type, device type, approximate location derived from IP, referring URL, and pages viewed. This helps us understand aggregate traffic and improve performance.

Cookies and similar technologies

We and our service providers may use cookies (small text files stored on your device) and similar technologies for:

• Essential operation — e.g. remembering preferences or load balancing;
• Analytics — e.g. measuring page views and engagement in aggregate;
• Affiliate attribution — when you click outbound affiliate links, partner networks may set cookies to credit referrals (see below).

You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Blocking some cookies may affect Site functionality.

Analytics

We may use privacy-conscious or mainstream analytics services to understand how readers use the Site (for example, which guides are most helpful). Where possible we prefer aggregated statistics over individual profiling. Specific tool names and retention periods may be listed in cookie banners or vendor documentation when we enable them.

Affiliate links and third-party tracking

Our pages may contain affiliate links to VPN providers, hosts, SaaS tools, and e-commerce platforms. When you click these links:

• You leave our Site and interact with the merchant or affiliate network directly;
• That third party may set cookies or use pixels to record clicks, attribute sales, and measure campaigns;
• Their use of data is governed by their privacy policies, not this one.

We may earn a commission on qualifying purchases. See our Affiliate Disclosure for how affiliate relationships work editorially.

How we use information

We use information to:

• Operate, secure, and improve the Site;
• Respond to enquiries and manage newsletter subscriptions;
• Analyse aggregate readership trends;
• Comply with legal obligations and enforce our terms.

We do not sell your personal information to data brokers.

Legal bases (including Malaysia / PDPA)

Where Malaysia's Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA) or similar laws apply, we process personal data fairly, for legitimate purposes related to the Site, and with reasonable security measures. Depending on context, processing may be based on consent (e.g. newsletter), performance of a request (e.g. replying to email), or legitimate interests (e.g. fraud prevention, analytics in aggregate form), balanced against your rights.

Data retention

We retain contact and subscription data only as long as needed for the purpose collected, unless a longer period is required by law. Server logs and analytics may be retained for shorter rolling periods as configured with vendors.

Your rights

Depending on applicable law, you may have rights to access, correct, limit, or delete certain personal data we hold, or to withdraw consent where processing is consent-based. Contact us using the details below to make a request. We may need to verify your identity before responding.

Children

The Site is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

International transfers

Our hosting or analytics providers may process data in jurisdictions outside Malaysia. Where required, we rely on appropriate safeguards or contractual terms offered by vendors.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date will change accordingly. Material changes may be highlighted on the Site or in communications where appropriate.
