Our commitment to protect your privacy

We understand that the personal information you provide is sensitive and private. We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring you feel secure whenever you engage with us. This policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your personal information in compliance with the Hong Kong Personal Data (Privacy) Ordinance (PDPO), the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) where applicable, and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) for residents of California. We also comply with the Australian Privacy Act 1988 (as amended) for users located in Australia.

Our services are not intended for children under the age of 18 (or 13 where applicable). We do not knowingly collect personal information from minors without parental consent.

Site usage information and cookies

When you access our Site ("Kinnara.asia," "Kinnara.com," or other Kinnara web assets), we may use embedded software (such as JavaScript) and place small data files ("cookies") on your device. This allows us to collect information about your page views, navigation paths, activities on each page, time spent, and overall Site performance.

We do not presently associate this usage information with identifiable individuals, so this data does not constitute personal information unless combined with identifying details.

You may decline cookies via your browser settings. Doing so may impact your experience using our Site and services. Please refer to your browser’s help section for guidance on blocking, disabling, or deleting cookies.

This Privacy Policy applies solely to our Site and not to any linked sites that are not operated or controlled by us. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party sites you visit.

Where required (e.g., for EU/UK visitors), we obtain explicit consent for cookies through a cookie banner or management tool before placing any non-essential cookies (e.g., analytics or marketing) you may also opt out by using a cookie management tool where available.

Personal information

Special categories (GDPR sensitive data) — such as racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious beliefs, trade union membership, genetic or biometric data, health information, or sexual orientation — are only collected with your explicit consent or as required by law.

"Notice at Collection". At or before the point of collection, we inform California residents about the categories of personal information we collect and the purposes for which they will be used. We do not share personal information for cross-context behavioural advertising.

  • Organisations involved in managing or administering your account, such as third-party suppliers, printing and postal services, and call centres.
  • Associated businesses that may market relevant products or services to you (only where permitted or with your consent).

  • For California residents: We do not "sell" personal information as defined under CCPA/CPRA.

How is my personal information secured?

We take reasonable steps to protect your personal information through secure storage, SSL encryption during data transmission, and restricted access for authorised personnel only.

We retain personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected or as required to comply with applicable laws, including tax, anti-money laundering, and other regulatory obligations. Retention periods may vary depending on the nature of the data and applicable legal requirements.

While we employ industry-standard safeguards, we disclaim liability (except where prohibited by law) for unauthorised access, disclosure, misuse, or loss of your personal information.

If you become aware of any security breaches, please notify us at compliance[@]kinnara.asia.

In the event of a data breach that may compromise your personal information, we will notify you and relevant authorities without undue delay, in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
