Privacy Policy

Last updated: March 9, 2026

This Privacy Policy describes how EcoMetrics Asia collects and uses your personal information. We are committed to protecting your privacy and handling your data responsibly. This policy applies to all users of our website and services related to climate change economics, green bonds, renewable energy, and environmental sustainability resources in Malaysia.

Information We Collect

We collect various types of information to provide and improve our services. This includes personal information you voluntarily provide when registering for accounts or accessing our resources. We gather usage data through analytics tools that track how you interact with our website, including pages visited, time spent on sections, and navigation patterns. Additionally, we collect technical information such as your IP address, browser type, device type, and operating system. When you contact us directly through inquiry forms or email, we collect the information you provide in your message, including your name, email address, and communication preferences.

How We Use Your Information

We use collected information to deliver and maintain our services, providing you with access to climate change economics resources, green bond market information, and renewable energy transition guides. Your data helps us personalize your experience and improve content relevance based on your interests and browsing behavior. We analyze usage patterns to enhance our website functionality and user interface, ensuring the platform remains accessible and informative. We may use your contact information to respond to inquiries, provide customer support, and send you updates about new resources or policy changes. We never sell or share your personal information with third parties without your explicit consent, except as required by Malaysian law or to protect our legal rights.

Your Rights and Choices

You have the right to access, review, and request corrections to any personal information we hold about you. You may request deletion of your account and associated data, subject to legal retention requirements. We provide options to opt out of marketing communications while maintaining essential service notifications. You have the right to data portability, meaning we can provide your information in a structured, commonly used format. For users in Malaysia, your rights are protected under the Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA) 2010. To exercise any of these rights, contact us with specific details about your request and we will respond within thirty days.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies to enhance your browsing experience and analyze website performance. These small data files help us remember your preferences, maintain login sessions, and track which resources you find most valuable. Cookies are also used to serve relevant content and improve our understanding of how visitors use our platform to learn about climate economics and sustainability topics. Most web browsers allow you to control cookie settings through your browser preferences, enabling you to accept, reject, or delete cookies. Please note that disabling cookies may affect some website functionality and your ability to access certain resources. We do not use cookies for tracking across unrelated third-party websites.

Data Security and Retention

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, alteration, and disclosure. Our security protocols include encrypted data transmission, secure server storage, and regular security audits to identify and address vulnerabilities. We retain your personal information only as long as necessary to provide our services and comply with legal obligations. When data is no longer needed, we securely delete or anonymize it. However, we may retain certain information for historical analysis and improvement of our climate economics resources. In the event of a data breach, we will notify affected users as required by law and take immediate corrective action.

Third-Party Services and Links

Our website may contain links to external resources and references to third-party services related to climate change research, green bond markets, and renewable energy information. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of external websites or services beyond our control. When you access third-party links, their privacy policies apply instead of ours. We do not provide your personal information to third parties without consent, except for trusted service providers who assist us with website hosting, analytics, and technical support under strict confidentiality agreements. These service providers are required to maintain the same level of data protection as we do.

Policy Updates and Changes

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in our practices, technology, or applicable laws. Any significant changes will be communicated to you through email or prominent notices on our website. We encourage you to review this policy regularly to stay informed about how we protect your information. Your continued use of our website following any modifications constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy. If you disagree with any changes, you may discontinue use of our services. The date at the top of this policy indicates when it was last updated, allowing you to track modifications over time.
