Privacy Policy

Last updated: March 20, 2026

This Privacy Policy describes how BumiGrowth collects and uses your personal information. We are committed to protecting your privacy and handling your data responsibly. When you visit our website or use our services related to SME development, entrepreneurship ecosystem information, and business financing resources, we may collect certain information about you.

Information We Collect

We collect information in various ways to provide and improve our services. This includes personal information you provide directly when registering for updates, subscribing to resources, or contacting us with inquiries about SME financing, Bumiputera enterprise programs, or entrepreneurship support. We gather usage data through analytics tools that track how you interact with our website, including pages visited, time spent, and navigation patterns.

We also collect technical information such as your IP address, browser type, device information, and referring website. Additionally, we use cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your browsing experience and understand how visitors use our platform for SME-related resources.

How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to provide, maintain, and improve our services related to SME sector performance data, entrepreneurship ecosystem information, and access to financing resources. Your data helps us personalize your experience, deliver relevant content about SME Corp support programmes and Bumiputera enterprise development initiatives, and respond to your inquiries promptly.

We analyze usage patterns to optimize our website functionality and identify gaps in SME education and business financing information. We may send you updates about relevant programs, research findings, and resources unless you opt out. We never sell your personal information to third parties. We may share aggregated, anonymized data with partner organizations working in SME development without identifying individuals.

Your Rights and Choices

You have the right to access, correct, or delete your personal information at any time. You can request a copy of the data we hold about you or ask us to remove your information from our systems. You may opt out of marketing communications while still receiving essential updates about our services. If you believe we misuse your data, you have the right to lodge a complaint with relevant data protection authorities in Malaysia.

You can control cookies through your browser settings and opt out of analytics tracking. We provide transparent information about our data practices and are happy to clarify any questions about how we handle your information.

Cookies and Tracking

We use cookies to improve your browsing experience and gather analytics about how our website is used. Essential cookies enable core functionality, while analytical cookies help us understand visitor behavior and optimize our SME resources platform. You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings, though disabling certain cookies may affect site functionality.

We also use similar technologies such as web beacons and local storage to track usage patterns and personalize content. Third-party services may place their own cookies on your device for analytics and advertising purposes. We do not use tracking technologies for targeted advertising but may use them for site improvement and user experience optimization.

Data Security

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. Our website uses encryption protocols, secure servers, and regular security audits to safeguard your data. We limit access to personal information to authorized personnel who need it to provide our services.

While we maintain robust security practices, no transmission over the internet is completely secure. We encourage you to use strong passwords and protect your login credentials. We cannot guarantee absolute security, but we continuously work to improve our data protection measures.

Data Retention

We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy or as required by Malaysian law. Registration data is kept for the duration of your account, and you may request deletion at any time. Analytics data is typically retained for up to two years unless longer retention is necessary for business purposes.

Marketing communication data is maintained until you unsubscribe. If you delete your account, we will remove identifiable personal information within thirty days, though we may retain anonymized data for analytical purposes. We do not retain payment information beyond transaction completion unless you authorize extended storage.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, or legal requirements. We will notify you of any material changes by posting the updated policy on our website and updating the “Last updated” date. Your continued use of our services after such changes constitutes your acceptance of the revised policy.

We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy regularly to stay informed about how we protect your information. If you have concerns about any changes, please contact us before continuing to use our services.
