YOUR PRIVACY IS IMPORTANT TO US
Your personal data is important to Kong Meng San Phor Kark See Monastery, its related corporations and affiliates (collectively referred to as “KMSPKS”, “we”, “us” or “our”) and KMSPKS is committed to ensuring that personal information is protected and managed in accordance with the Personal Data Protection Act 2012 (“PDPA”). This policy describes how we may collect, use, disclose, process and manage your personal data.
This policy applies to any individual’s personal data which is in our possession or under our control.
1. What Personal Data We Collect
1.1. “Personal data” means data, whether true or not, about an individual who is identifiable from (i) that data; or (ii) that data and other information to which we have or are likely to have access to. Some examples of personal data that we may collect are:
(a) Personal particulars (e.g. name, contact details, residential address, date of birth, identity card/passport details, employment, health and/or education details);
(b) Specimen signature(s);
(c) Video and still images of you; and
(d) Personal opinions made known to us (e.g. feedback or responses to surveys).
1.2. We generally do not collect your personal data unless it is provided to us voluntarily by you directly or via a third party who has been duly authorised by you after (i) you or your authorised representative have been notified of the purposes for which the data is collected, and (ii) you or your authorised representative have provided written consent to the collection and usage of your personal data for those purposes.
1.3. The exact data to be collected depends on the purposes and needs of KMSPKS, which will be communicated to you on or before the data is collected.
2. Use of Personal Data
2.1. KMSPKS endeavours to only collect, use or disclose personal data which we consider reasonably necessary for the purposes underlying such collection, use or disclosure. KMSPKS may also use the personal data for purposes which are permitted by law.
2.2. We may use your personal data for purposes such as:
(a) Developing and providing monastery facilities, products, services, events or activities, including but not limited to:
- Executing service instructions, or other transactions and clearing or reporting on these transactions;
- Carrying out research, planning and statistical analysis; or
- Performing analytics for the purposes of developing or improving our products, services, events, activities, security, service quality, and advertising strategies;
(b) Assessing and processing applications, instructions or requests from you;
(c) Communicating with you, including providing you with updates on changes to products, services, events, activities and monastery facilities including any additions, expansions, suspensions and replacements of or to such products, services, events, activities and monastery facilities and their terms and conditions;

(j) any other incidental purposes related to or in connection with the above.
2.3. All personal data given as part of a prospective employment application will be used to assess the applicant’s suitability and/or eligibility for the position that has been applied for. Such personal data may also be used to assess the individual’s suitability and/or eligibility for a position for which the applicant has not applied, but one which we believe the individual may be suited for. Should this be the case, we will seek the consent of the individual before considering the applicant for such other position.
2.4. We may also use personal data for purposes set out in the terms and conditions that govern our relationship with you.
2.5. Where KMSPKS collects data for purposes other than those listed above, KMSPKS will disclose such purposes to the individual, by suitable means, when collecting the personal data from the individual.
3. Use of Personal Data for Marketing Purposes
3.1. We may use your personal data to offer you products or services, including special offers, promotions, events, activities, contests or entitlements that may be of interest to you or for which you may be eligible. Such marketing messages may be sent to you in various modes including, but not limited to, electronic mail, direct mailers, short message service, telephone calls, and other mobile messaging services. In doing so, we comply with PDPA and other applicable data protection and privacy laws.
3.2. In respect of sending telemarketing messages to your Singapore telephone number via short message service, telephone calls, and other mobile messaging services, please be assured that we shall only do so if we have your clear and unambiguous consent in writing or other recorded form to do so if you have not otherwise made the appropriate registration of that number with the Do Not Call Registry. If we have an ongoing relationship with you and you have not indicated to us that you do not wish to receive telemarketing messages sent to your Singapore telephone number, we may send you telemarketing messages to that number related to the subject of our ongoing relationship via short message service, and other mobile messaging services.
3.3. You may at any time request that we stop contacting you for marketing purposes via email. To find out more on how you can change the way we use your personal data for marketing purposes, please contact us via pdpa@kmspks.org.

We may from time to time, in compliance with all applicable laws on data privacy, disclose your personal data to any personnel of KMSPKS or to third parties, whether located in Singapore or elsewhere, in order to carry out the purposes set out above. Please be assured that when we disclose your personal data to such parties, we require them to ensure that any personal data disclosed to them are kept confidential and secure.
