Other terms used in this Policy shall have the meanings given to them in the PDPA (where the context so
permits).
COLLECTION, USE AND DISCLOSURE OF PERSONAL DATA
-
We generally do not collect your personal data unless (a) it is provided to us voluntarily by you directly
or via a
third party who has been duly authorised by you to disclose your personal data to us (your "authorised
representative")
after (i) you (or your authorised representative) have been notified of the purposes for which the data is
collected,
and (ii) you (or your authorised representative) have provided written consent to the collection and usage
of your
personal data for those purposes, or (b) collection and use of personal data without consent is permitted or
required by
the PDPA or other laws. We shall seek your consent before collecting any additional personal data and before
using your
personal data for a purpose which has not been notified to you (except where permitted or authorised by
law).
-
If you have supplied third party personal data to us, you represent and warrant that you have obtained the
consent of
the person(s) you enrolled, except to the extent such consent is not required under relevant laws:
(i) to
collect their personal data; (ii) to disclose their personal data to us; and (iii) we and third parties to
use any of
their personal data in the manner and for the purposes described herein.

We may also collect and use your personal data for any or all the following purposes:
- providing services to you in relation to your transactions with us
- conducting due diligence or other screening activities (including background checks for job
applicants) in
accordance with legal or regulatory obligations or risk management procedures that may be required
by law or internal
compliance policies and procedures.
- complying to applicable laws, regulations, code of practice, guidelines, or rules in management of
our relationship
- transmitting to any unaffiliated third parties including our third-party service providers and
agents, and relevant
governmental and/or regulatory authorities, whether in Singapore or abroad, for the purposes.
- responding to, handling, and processing queries, requests, applications, complaints, and feedback
from you
- any other incidental business purposes related to or in connection with the above.
-
We may disclose your personal data:
- where such disclosure is required for performing obligations in the course of or in connection with
our provision of
the services requested by you; or
- to third party service providers, agents, law enforcement agencies, public agencies with reference
to the
above-mentioned purposes.
-
The purposes listed in the above clauses may continue to apply even in situations where your relationship
with us
(for example, pursuant to your employment contract should you be hired) has been terminated or altered in
any way, for a
reasonable period thereafter (including, where applicable, a period to enable us to enforce our rights under
a contract
with you).
-
While we do our best to make our services available to you, we may not be able to do so if you do not
provide us with
certain mandatory Personal Data that is necessary to provide services to you. Similarly, while we endeavour
to accede to
your requests or instructions where possible, we may not be able to accept your request or instructions if
you refuse to
give us Personal Data that is necessary to process or administer your request.
WITHDRAWING YOUR CONSENT
-
The consent that you provide for the collection, use and disclosure of your personal data will remain valid
until
such time it is being withdrawn by you in writing. You may withdraw consent and request us to stop
collecting, using
and/or disclosing your personal data for any or all the purposes listed above by submitting your request in
writing or
via email to our Data Protection Officer at the contact details provided below.
-
Upon receipt of your written request to withdraw your consent, we may require reasonable time (depending on
the
complexity of the request and its impact on our relationship with you) for your request to be processed and
for us to
notify you of the consequences of us acceding to the same, including any legal consequences which may affect
your rights
and liabilities to us. In general, we shall seek to process your request within thirty (30) business days of
receiving
it.
-
Whilst we respect your decision to withdraw your consent, please note that depending on the nature and scope
of your
request, we may not be in a position to continue providing our services to you and we shall, in such
circumstances,
notify you before completing the processing of your request. Should you decide to cancel your withdrawal of
consent,
please inform us in writing.
-
Please note that withdrawing consent does not affect our right to continue to collect, use and disclose
personal
data where such collection, use and disclose without consent is permitted or required under applicable laws.
ACCESS TO AND CORRECTION OF PERSONAL DATA
-
If you wish to make (a) an access request for access to a copy of the personal data which we hold about you
or
information about the ways in which we use or disclose your personal data, or (b) a correction request to
correct or
update any of your personal data which we hold about you, you may submit your request in writing or via
email to our
Data Protection Officer at the contact details provided below.

Please note that a reasonable fee may be charged for an access request. If so, we will inform you of the fee

We will respond to your request as soon as reasonably possible. In general, our response will be within
thirty (30)
business 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).
PROTECTION OF PERSONAL DATA
-
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
such as
up-to-date antivirus protection, encryption, and disclosing personal data both internally and to our
authorised
third-party service providers and agents only on a need-to-know basis.
-
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). To ensure that your
personal
data is current, 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 purpose for which it was
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 purpose for which the personal data
was collected
and is no longer necessary for legal or business purposes.
TRANSFERS OF PERSONAL DATA OUTSIDE OF SINGAPORE
-
We generally 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 we 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.
CONSEQUENCES OF NOT CONSENTING AND/OR PROVIDING PERSONAL DATA
-
Please be noted that should you not consent and provide us with the relevant personal data to fulfil the
"Purposes"
of collection, use and disclosure of your personal information by us, it may hinder our ability to continue
to interact
with you and we may not be able to fulfil the Purposes listed in this Personal Data Protection Policy, under
"Collection, use and disclosure of personal data" Section.
