Privacy

Privacy matters, but it can be confusing. We lay it all here on this page to explain our approach to privacy on all WALKALINE websites and how it affects you.


Short version

  • We collect anonymous statistics about your visit to our website, like which of our pages you viewed.
  • If you sign up with us, we take great care to keep your information safe and we will never share it with others without your express permission.
  • We never share your data with 3rd parties except to help us deliver our own services.


These are just the key points. If you need details, keep reading.

It is WALKALINE policy to comply with all applicable privacy and data protection laws in compliance with the respective legal and regulatory requirements [Malaysia Personal Data Protection Act 2010, and India Data (Privacy and Protection) Act, 2017] ("Act"). This commitment reflects the value we place on earning and keeping the trust of our employees, customers, business partners and others who share their personal information with us.
