Privacy policy

Last updated: 12 January 2026

Overview

This privacy policy explains how Malaysia Arrival Guide handles information relating to visitors of this website. We are committed to transparency and to processing personal data only when strictly necessary.

Information we collect

Malaysia Arrival Guide is primarily an editorial website. We do not require visitors to create an account or to submit personal data to read our articles. Limited technical information may be collected automatically by our hosting provider for security and performance purposes, including:

  • IP address (in anonymised or truncated form where possible)
  • Browser type and version
  • Operating system
  • Pages visited and time of visit

Contact requests

If you contact us by email, we will process the personal data you provide (such as your name and email address) solely to respond to your enquiry. Messages are retained only for as long as necessary to address the request and any reasonable follow-up.

Cookies

This website uses only the minimum cookies required for basic operation. We do not use third-party advertising cookies or profile-based tracking. Where analytics are used, they are configured to respect visitor privacy and to avoid collecting directly identifiable information.

External links

Our articles occasionally reference external websites, including the official Malaysian government portals. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party sites and encourage visitors to review their respective privacy policies.

Your rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights of access, rectification, deletion, restriction and objection in relation to your personal data. To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the details on our contact page.

The MDAC and official websites

Malaysia Arrival Guide does not process Malaysia Digital Arrival Card submissions and does not collect MDAC-related personal data such as passport numbers, flight itineraries or accommodation details. The MDAC is submitted directly to the Malaysian Immigration Department through the official government website, whose privacy practices are independent of this site.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time to reflect changes to our editorial operations or to applicable law. The most current version will always be available on this page, with the last-updated date shown at the top.
