At 689, your privacy is not merely a legal obligation — it is our sincere commitment. Find out how we collect, use, store, and protect every detail of the personal information you entrust to us.
We invest in the best technology and processes to keep your personal data protected at all times.
All data transmitted between your device and 689's servers is protected by industry-grade 256-bit SSL encryption — the same technology used by leading banking institutions worldwide.
Members' personal data is stored on servers protected by layered firewalls and an active 24-hour intrusion detection system (IDS). Internal access is strictly limited on a need-to-know basis.
Only authorised 689 staff may access your personal data, and every access is recorded in a reviewable audit log. No third party gains access without your consent.
689 has never and will never sell, rent, or trade your personal data to any third party for marketing or commercial purposes without your explicit consent.
The 689 App supports two-factor authentication (2FA) to protect your account login. Even if your password is compromised, your account remains secure without the second verification code.
689's Privacy Policy fully complies with Malaysia's Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA). Your rights as a data subject are protected and respected across all our internal processes.
