6. Your Rights

Under Article 3 of the PDPA, you may: (a) inquire about and request to review your personal data; (b) request a copy; (c) request correction or supplementation; (d) request cessation of collection, processing, or use; and (e) request deletion.

We respond within 15 days for review/copy requests and within 30 days for correction or deletion requests, as required by the PDPA. Exercising these rights is free of charge except where the law permits a reasonable cost for copies.

7. Security

Data is encrypted in transit (TLS) and at rest. Access tokens (including Google OAuth tokens) are stored encrypted and used solely to provide features you have connected. Access to production data is restricted to authorized personnel on a need-to-know basis. In the event of a data breach affecting your personal data, we will notify you and the competent authority as required by the PDPA.
