Data-handling notice
Privacy Policy
This page explains what information the service receives, why it is used and which other providers may process it.
Who this policy covers
This policy covers IGCSEPhysics.com.my, its tutoring enquiries and the personal information used to arrange and provide online tuition. It is a practical description of current handling practices and should not be read as legal advice.
Information you choose to send
The website has no user accounts and no public contact form. When you contact the service through WhatsApp at +60172197185, the service receives the information included in that conversation. This may include a parent or guardian’s name and contact number, the student’s name, school or private-candidate status, year group, examination session, current result, Core or Extended route, availability and examples of schoolwork.
Please do not send medical, financial, identity-document or other sensitive information unless it is genuinely necessary and the reason for providing it has been discussed. A parent or guardian should normally handle enquiries involving a minor.
How enquiry and student information is used
Information may be used to understand the enquiry, assign a tutor, confirm pricing and scheduling, arrange the paid trial, prepare lessons, communicate about the tutoring service and respond to requests about the information held.
The assigned tutor may receive the student information and work samples reasonably needed to teach the lesson. Tutors should not receive unrelated personal details.
WhatsApp and other service providers
WhatsApp is operated by a third party and processes messages, account details and technical information under its own terms and privacy policy. Website hosting and analytics providers may also process technical data to deliver and measure the site. These providers may process information in countries outside Malaysia.
Website analytics and hosting logs
The site uses Google Analytics 4 to understand page usage and improve the website. Analytics may use cookies or similar identifiers and collect information such as pages viewed, approximate location, device type, browser and referral source. It is not intended to collect the student’s name or WhatsApp conversation.
Vercel hosts the website and may keep standard technical access and security logs. Blocking analytics cookies should not prevent access to the public learning pages.
How information may be disclosed
Information may be disclosed to the assigned tutor and to service providers used for messaging, analytics, hosting or site operation where reasonably necessary. It may also be disclosed when required by law. Personal information is not sold.
How long information is kept
Information is kept only for as long as it is reasonably needed for the enquiry, tutoring relationship, record-keeping, dispute handling, security or legal obligations. Different records may therefore have different retention periods.
Accuracy, security and student work
Reasonable steps should be taken to keep information accurate and protected from unauthorised access or use. No internet, messaging or storage system can be guaranteed completely secure. Do not send more information than is needed for the tutoring purpose.
Testimonials and public examples
A testimonial, result, student name, school detail or identifiable piece of student work should only be published with appropriate permission. Mathematics feedback must not be represented as a Physics outcome.
Your requests
You may contact the service to ask what personal information is held about you, request correction of inaccurate information, withdraw consent where applicable, object to direct marketing or ask that information no longer needed be deleted. Some information may need to be retained for legal or legitimate record-keeping reasons.
Send privacy requests through WhatsApp at +60172197185. Enough information may be requested to verify that the person making the request is entitled to receive or change the record.
Changes to this policy
This policy may be updated when the service, providers or applicable requirements change. Material changes should be reflected on this page.
