Privacy Policy
At Sahabat Alam Malaysia we take your privacy very seriously and we are committed to protecting your personal information online. This statement explains how we collect and use the information which you give us.
Our aim is to safeguard your privacy whilst providing a personalised and valuable service. Collecting personal information is necessary if we are to satisfy the expectations and requirements of our supporters.
We appreciate that you do not want the personal information you provide to us to be distributed indiscriminately and here we explain how we use your personal information and let you know what rights you have regarding its use.
Your rights
Any personal information submitted via our website is treated in accordance with the Personal Data Protection Act 2010.
You are entitled to request access to your personal data that is processed by us with reasonable written notice and we will revert within 14 working days.
Personal information
In some areas of our website, we ask you to provide personal information that will enable us to enhance your site visit or contact you with information you request or that may be of interest to you, e.g. when you subscribe to our email updates, make a donation, or take an online action. Examples of your personal information include your name, postal address, phone number and email address.
How is the information used?
We will only send you information about our work by email where you have given us your consent to do so.
We may send you any information we believe may be of interest to you. For example, where you have given consent to be contacted by email, we will normally sign you up to the monthly email newsletter and send you the occasional call to take action or donate to a campaign. You may also receive a welcome email telling you about the newsletter and letting you know about other ways to support us. Emails we send you will always give you the chance to opt out of receiving further emails or alternatively, you can contact us on our contact page. We do not send out random, untargeted emails, known as spam.
Sahabat Alam Malaysia will not disclose any of your personally identifiable information except as outlined in this policy or when we have your permission or under special circumstances, such as when we believe the law requires it.
We collect information about the date and time in which our website was accessed and the internet address of the server from which you linked to our site. This may be linked to personal data you have given us. We use this data to improve our site performance and to evaluate traffic statistics, such as the times of day and days of week at which we see peak traffic, and to assess the relative popularity of different areas of the site.
Accuracy
The accuracy of your information is important to us. If you change your email address or if any of the other information we hold is inaccurate or out of date, please contact us at foemalaysia@gmail.com.
Any information we hold that is incorrect will be amended or deleted promptly. We will give you confirmation of corrections and deletions.
Security
We place great importance on the security of your personal information and we always try to take appropriate precautions to protect it.
All our online financial transactions are handled through our payment services provider, Stripe. You should only provide your personal information to Stripe after reviewing the Stripe privacy policy (available at www.stripe.com). We will share information with Stripe only to the extent necessary for the purposes of processing payments you make via our website. We do not store your financial or credit card details.
Despite all of our precautions however, no data transmission over the internet can be guaranteed to be fully secure. So, whilst we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of any information.
We are also concerned to protect your personal information off-line. We take steps to ensure that access to personal information is restricted to employees who need it. All Sahabat Alam Malaysia employees who handle personal information are kept up-to-date on our security and privacy practices and protocols. Our employees are notified and reminded about the importance we place on privacy, and what they can do to ensure your information is protected.
We cannot, however, be responsible for the theft, destruction or inadvertent disclosure of your personal information whether we hold it on or off-line.

Privacy policy for minors
The protection of children is very important to us. If you are under 18, please do not provide us with any personal information. Children should always ask a parent or guardian for permission before sending personal information to anyone online.
We cannot guarantee the confidentiality of any messages transmitted between you and us via email as these are potentially accessible by the public. We will not be liable to you or anyone else for any loss in connection with any email message sent by you to us or by us to you.
