Cookie Policy

This page explains what cookies are, which ones this site uses, and how you can manage your preferences. We keep it plain and straightforward.

Last Updated: 15 May 2025

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device when you visit. They allow the site to remember certain things — like whether you have accepted this notice — so you are not asked every single time.

Cookies do not contain personal information on their own. They are a standard tool used across the web and are covered under Malaysia's Personal Data Protection Act 2010 and related guidelines on electronic communications.
