Our policy
Privacy Policy.
We at SIFUTUTOR are committed to protecting your privacy.
Our goal is to provide you with a positive experience on our websites and when using our products and services, while at the same time keeping your Personal Information, as defined below, secure. Our privacy practices are described below. This Privacy Policy covers all SIFUTUTOR Products and SIFUTUTOR Websites. By visiting SIFUTUTOR Websites, using SIFUTUTOR Products or providing us with your Personal Information (as defined below), you are accepting and consenting to the practices, terms and conditions described in this Privacy Policy.
SIFUTUTOR wants to make SIFUTUTOR Websites easy for you to navigate and SIFUTUTOR Products easy for you to use. We are constantly improving SIFUTUTOR websites and SIFUTUTOR Products to make them more user-friendly.
For ease of reference, we will use the following terms in this Privacy Policy: “SIFUTUTOR”, “our”, “us” or “we” means Sifu Edu & Learning Sdn Bhd. “SIFUTUTOR Websites” include all SIFUTUTOR websites including but not limited to sifututor.my. “SIFUTUTOR Products” includes all SIFUTUTOR branded products and/or services.
Types of Information Covered by This Privacy Policy
SIFUTUTOR collects Personal Information from people who browse our webpage or who purchase products from our webpage. “Personal Information” means any information that can be used to identify you or that relates to you. SIFUTUTOR collects the following information from you when you browse our web page:
- Usage data relating to SIFUTUTOR Websites and SIFUTUTOR Products
- Language preferences
- SIFUTUTOR website page views
- Comments you post about our products
Information may be aggregated and/or anonymized. When information is aggregated, it is combined with information about other customers and users. When information is anonymized, Personal Information is removed from collected data and the remaining portion of the data, containing only Non-Personal Information, is repurposed for internal or external use, such as, for example, to determine how many users of a particular router include an Internet-enabled television in a home network environment, or how many users viewed a particular website video or advertisement. Aggregated information that includes Personal Information is considered Personal Information until it has been anonymized. Anonymized information is considered Non-Personal Information. In general, usage data collected when you visit SIFUTUTOR Websites or use SIFUTUTOR Products is both aggregated and anonymized, so it does not identify you personally and is therefore Non-Personal Information.

For certain SIFUTUTOR products, SIFUTUTOR may provide the opportunity for you to connect and interface SIFUTUTOR Products with one or more third party products and services, which will involve the exchange of information from your SIFUTUTOR Product with the third-party product or service. In some cases, if you purchase, use or download a third-party product or service that connects to a SIFUTUTOR Product, you may also be subject to such third party’s privacy policy.

When making purchases on the SIFUTUTOR Website store(s), SIFUTUTOR uses a payment processor to verify your payment card information. Your payment card information is passed through to the payment processor and is not collected or stored by SIFUTUTOR. The payment processor is authorized to use this information only to authenticate your purchase and for no other purpose.
Marketing
You have the right to ask us not to process your Personal Information for marketing purposes. We will inform you (before collecting your Personal Information) if we intend to use your Personal Information for marketing purposes, or if we intend to disclose your Personal Information to any third party for marketing purposes.
We will always give you choices about your Personal Information. Some choices are presented up front in the form of Opt-in notices or acceptance boxes for marketing to you or sharing your Personal Information with third parties. In certain cases, where permitted by law, we also may give you the choice to Opt-out. “Opt-out” means you have already chosen to Opt-in, but you later change your mind. One form of Opt-out is clicking the Unsubscribe link in a marketing email. This will take you off our marketing email list. SIFUTUTOR’s general policy is to have users Opt-in, rather than Opt-out, to receive marketing information and to allow the sharing of information with third parties. Please note that these Opt-in/Opt-out choices do not apply to the receipt of mandatory website, customer service or receipt of order or shipping confirmations on SIFUTUTOR Website store(s), which you may receive periodically unless you cancel your service or order.
