1. Introduction
Wristwright ("we", "us", "our") operates a watch repair and care workshop at 56 Jalan Macalister, 10400 George Town, Penang, Malaysia. This privacy policy explains how we collect, use, store, and protect personal data provided to us through our website at wrist.live or through direct contact with the workshop.
We take the handling of personal data seriously. We collect only what is necessary for the purposes described below and do not retain it beyond the period for which it remains relevant. Questions about this policy may be directed to [email protected].
2. Data We Collect
We collect the following categories of personal data when you contact us or use our website:
- Name and contact details (email address, telephone number) — provided voluntarily via the contact form or by telephone
- Service-related information — details about the timepiece and the service requested
- Workshop records — condition notes and service records associated with pieces brought to the workshop
- Technical data — IP address, browser type, and page visit information collected via website analytics cookies, where consent has been given
We do not collect sensitive personal data (as defined under Malaysia's Personal Data Protection Act 2010) and do not require you to provide such data to use our services.
3. How We Use Personal Data
Personal data is used for the following purposes:
- Responding to enquiries received via the contact form or by telephone
- Scheduling and managing appointments at the workshop
- Preparing and issuing written diagnostic reports, engraving proofs, and storage advisories
- Maintaining the workshop's internal ledger record of services performed
- Contacting clients when a service is complete or when a follow-up is relevant
- Improving the website using aggregated, anonymised analytics data
The legal basis for processing under Malaysia's Personal Data Protection Act 2010 is primarily consent (for marketing and analytics) and contractual necessity (for service delivery and communication).
4. Data Retention
Workshop ledger records — which include service records and condition notes associated with pieces — are retained for as long as the client may reasonably return for a related follow-up service. This is typically seven years from the date of the last service.
Contact form submissions and email correspondence are retained for two years unless a longer period is required in connection with a service in progress.
Website analytics data is retained in aggregated, anonymised form. No individually identifiable analytics records are retained beyond twelve months.
5. Data Protection Measures
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal data from unauthorised access, disclosure, or loss. These measures include:
- Access controls on digital records, limited to workshop personnel
- Physical security for paper-based ledger records
- Use of HTTPS for website data transmission
- No storage of payment card or financial data on our systems
In the event of a data breach that is likely to result in risk to individuals, we will notify affected persons and the relevant authorities in accordance with applicable Malaysian law.
