5. PDPA 2010 — Seven Principles
As a data user under the Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (Act 709), Stronium adheres to the following seven data protection principles:
7. How Long We Keep Your Data
We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected, after which it is securely deleted or anonymised. In general:

- Web server logs — retained for up to ninety (90) days for security and operational purposes, then deleted.

Where we are required to retain records by Malaysian law (e.g., the Companies Act 2016 or tax regulations), we will retain them for the period required by that law.

- Regular review of our data collection, storage, and processing practices.
No method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee absolute security. In the event of a data breach that is likely to adversely affect your rights, we will notify you and the relevant authorities as required by applicable law.
