required under applicable laws.

 |
an access request
for access to a copy of the personal data which we hold about you or

request to correct or update any of your personal data which we hold

Access
Request Form
Correction
Request Form
Please note that a reasonable fee may be charged
for an access request. If so, we will inform you of the fee before
processing your request.
We will respond to your request as soon as
reasonably possible. In general, our response will be within seven (7)
working days. Should we not be able to respond to your request within
thirty (30) days after receiving your request, we will inform you in
writing within thirty (30) days of the time by which we will be able to
respond to your request. If we are unable to provide you with any
personal data or to make a correction requested by you, we shall
generally inform you of the reasons why we are unable to do so (except
where we are not required to do so under the PDPA).
Please note that depending on the request that
is being made, we will only need to provide you with access to the
personal data contained in the documents requested, and not to the
entire documents themselves. In those cases, it may be appropriate for
us to simply provide you with confirmation of the personal data that our
organisation has on record, if the record of your personal data forms a
negligible part of the document.
PROTECTION OF PERSONAL DATA
We take our responsibilities under the PDPA
seriously. We are committed to implementing policies, practices and
processes for data protection that comply closely with the PDPA
obligations. To safeguard your personal data from unauthorised access,
collection, use, disclosure, copying, modification, disposal or similar
risks, we have introduced appropriate administrative, physical and
technical measures.
These measures include minimizing the collection
of personal data to the extent necessary, implementing user
authentication and up-to-date antivirus protection. These steps are
taken to prevent any unauthorised access to your personal data and
mitigate the potential risk.
We also prioritize the confidentiality and
integrity of your personal data and take reasonable and appropriate
measures. We are obliged to adhere to strict confidentiality
requirements to ensure the privacy and security of personal data.
You should be aware, however, that no method of
transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is
completely secure. While security cannot be guaranteed, we strive to
protect the security of your information and are constantly reviewing
and enhancing our information security measures.
ACCURACY OF PERSONAL DATA
We generally rely on personal data provided by
you (or your authorised representative). In order to ensure that your
personal data is up-to-date, complete and accurate, please update us if
there are changes to your personal data by informing our Data Protection
Officer in writing or via email at the contact details provided below.
RETENTION OF PERSONAL DATA
We may retain your personal data for as long as
it is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which they were collected, or
as required or permitted by applicable laws.
We will cease to retain your personal data, or
remove the means by which the data can be associated with you, as soon
as it is reasonable to assume that such retention no longer serves the
purposes for which the personal data were collected, and are no longer
necessary for legal or business purposes in a secure manner. This
applies to both paper documents and (if) electronic data stored in
databases.
TRANSFERS OF PERSONAL DATA OUTSIDE OF SINGAPORE
We do not transfer your personal data to
countries outside of Singapore. However, if we do so, we will obtain
your consent for the transfer to be made and will take steps to ensure
that your personal data continues to receive a standard of protection
that is at least comparable to that provided under the PDPA. If this is
not so, we will enter into a contractual agreement with the receiving
party to accord similar levels of data protection as that in Singapore.
