Privacy Policy

At Pintar Studio, we handle your personal information with care. This page explains what we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have.

This Privacy Policy applies to Pintar Studio, operating from Jalan Tun Jugah 56, 93350 Kuching, Sarawak, Malaysia. It covers information we may receive through our website at pintarsta.cyou and through communications with us. By using our site, you acknowledge the practices described here.

1. Information We Collect

We collect only what is needed to respond to your enquiries and deliver our services. This may include:

  • Your name and contact details (email address, phone number) when you fill in our contact form
  • Business details you share with us during project discussions
  • Technical information gathered through standard server logs, such as your IP address, browser type, and the pages you visit
  • Preferences stored in cookies to help the website work as expected on return visits

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information you provide solely for the following purposes:

  • To respond to your questions and enquiries in a timely and helpful manner
  • To prepare and deliver services you have requested or expressed interest in
  • To send occasional updates relevant to your project, when you have asked us to do so
  • To maintain the security and proper functioning of our website
  • To meet any legal obligations that apply to our business

We do not use your personal information for unsolicited marketing or share it with advertising networks.

3. Sharing of Information

Your personal information is not sold, rented, or traded. We may share it with:

  • Service providers who assist us in operating our website or delivering our work (for example, hosting providers), under confidentiality terms
  • Regulatory or government authorities, where required by Malaysian law

Any third parties we work with are expected to handle your information responsibly and only for the purposes we specify.

5. Data Retention

We keep personal information only for as long as reasonably needed. Enquiry records are typically retained for up to three years in case of follow-up questions. Data tied to completed projects may be kept for up to seven years to meet accounting and legal requirements under Malaysian law. You may request earlier deletion where this is possible.

  • Request that we delete your information, where legally permitted

To exercise any of these rights, please write to us at [email protected]. We will respond within a reasonable time.

7. Security

We take reasonable steps to protect the personal information we hold from loss, misuse, and access by those who should not have it. Our website uses encrypted connections (HTTPS) for data in transit. While no system can be entirely without risk, we work to maintain appropriate safeguards.
