Online Tracking and Advertising
How We Use Cookies, Web Beacons, and Similar Technologies and How to Disable These
Technologies
We and any third parties duly appointed/authorized by us to provide content, advertising, or
functionality or measure and analyze advertisement performance on our Websites (collectively,
“ Authorized Third Parties ”), may use cookies, web beacons, mobile advertising identifiers,
and similar technologies to facilitate administration and navigation, to better understand and
improve our Websites, to determine and/or improve the advertising shown to you here or within
the online sites operated and/or managed by ABC SDN BHD, and to provide you with a
customized online experience.
Cookies. Cookies are small files that are placed on your computer when you visit Websites.
Cookies may be used to store a unique identification number tied to your computer or device so
that you can be recognized as the same user across one or more browsing sessions and across
one or more sites. Cookies serve many useful purposes. For example:
▪ Cookies can remember your sign-in credentials so you do not have to enter those credentials
each time you visit a Website.
▪ Cookies can help us and the Authorized Third Parties understand which parts of our Websites are
the most popular because they help us see which pages and features users access and how much
time they spend on the pages. By studying this kind of information, we are better able to adapt
our Websites and provide you with a better experience.
▪ Cookies help us and the Authorized Third Parties understand which advertisements you have
seen so that you don’t receive the same advertisement each time you visit our Websites.
Most browsers accept cookies automatically but can be configured not to do so or to notify the
user when a cookie is being sent. If you wish to disable cookies, refer to your browser help menu
to learn how to disable cookies. If you disable browser cookies or flash cookies, it may interfere
with the proper functioning of our Websites.
Beacons. We, along with the Authorized Third Parties, also may use technologies called beacons
(or “pixels”) that communicate information from your device to a server. Beacons can be
embedded in online content, videos, and emails, and can allow a server to read certain types of
information from your device, know when you have viewed particular content or a particular
email message, determine the time and date on which you viewed the beacon and the IP address
of your device. We and third parties use beacons for a variety of purposes, including to analyze
the use of the Websites and products and/or services offered by IPOH KACANG PUTIH (M) SDN BHD and (in conjunction with cookies) to provide content and advertisements that are more relevant to you.
Local Storage & Other Tracking Technologies. We, along with third parties, may use other
kinds of technologies, such as Local Shared Objects (also referred to as “Flash cookies”) and
Hypertext Markup Language revision 5 (HTML5) local storage, in connection with our
Websites. We also may use unique identifiers associated with your device, such as mobile
advertising identifiers. These technologies are similar to the cookies discussed above in that they
are stored on your device and can be used to store certain information about your activities and
preferences. However, these technologies may make use of different parts of your device from
standard cookies, so you might not be able to control them using standard browser tools and
settings. For HTML5 local storage, the method for disabling HTML5 will vary depending on
your browser. For Flash cookies, information about disabling or deleting information contained
in Flash cookies can be found here.
Additional Choices With Respect To Targeted Advertising
As described above, we and the Authorized Third Parties may use cookies and other tracking
technologies to facilitate serving relevant advertisements to you. For example, these technologies
help us determine whether you have seen a particular advertisement before, tailor advertisements
to you if you have visited our Websites before, and avoid sending you to duplicate advertisements.
Due to differences between using apps and websites on mobile devices, you may need to take
additional steps to disable tracking technologies in mobile applications. Many mobile devices
allow you to opt out of targeted advertising for mobile applications using the settings within the
mobile application or your mobile device. For more information, please check your mobile
settings. You also may uninstall our applications using the standard uninstall process available
on your mobile device or app marketplace.

advertisers and/or business partners access any information entered by Users in our database,
this fact shall be disclosed to the Users upon initiating the registration process. Users who feel
they do not wish their information to be shared by anyone other than the Websites may then opt
out of completing the registration.

prescribed fee and to request correction of the Personal Data that is inaccurate, incomplete,
misleading or not up-to-date. If you have any questions regarding this Privacy Policy or if you
