This policy outlines our obligations and practices in the handling of the Personal Data we collect and hold about our customers, prospects, vendors, suppliers, partners, and all others who come into contact with us and our related companies, across all touch points of our business operations, including those seeking employment with us and applies to CMS and any other affiliated companies.

 

 

WHAT IS PERSONAL DATA?

Personal data (“Personal Data”) refers to all and any information relating to you obtained by us in the course of and as a result of the provision of any products and services by us to you. Such Personal Data collected, used and disclosed to us will include a variety of information such as your name, mailing address, telephone number(s), personal email address, NRIC number, your images taken by us and any other information which you may have provided in any form to us.

 

 

HOW DOES CMS COLLECT PERSONAL DATA?

Where possible, we will collect your Personal Data directly from you and secure the relevant consent from you. This may take place in a number of ways, such as:

• when you visit us in our showrooms, service & bodycare centres, any of our premises or events hosted by us; or
• ask us to provide a product or service over the telephone or internet.

Where you have given your Personal Data through the aforementioned mediums or any other mode, you agree to be bound by this Personal Data Protection and Privacy Policy.

Our websites may also offer interactive facilities where personal data may also be collected, such as:

• customer enquiry.
• comment forms.
• and contest entry forms; or
• from third parties such as our agents, partners, contractors and regulatory authorities.

Where you have accessed and used our websites and any services we offer via the websites, you agree to be bound by this Personal Data Protection and Privacy Policy in respect of the Personal Data collected about you via our websites.

We assure you that regardless of the medium you provide your Personal Data to us, it will always be handled by us with care and diligence not only in accordance with this Personal Data Protection and Privacy Policy, in compliance with the PDPA, but also as our duty to you as our customers and/or service users.

 

 

DISCLOSURE

In providing you with a product or service, we may sometimes need to disclose your Personal Data to others. It is generally not our policy to disclose your Personal Data to external organisations unless we have your consent and/or are required to disclose your Personal Data as required in the normal course and scope of our business in the provision of our services to you, and/or for contractual, legal and regulatory requirements. Some examples of the types of external organisations we may need to disclose information to in the course of providing a product or service are:

• Land Transport Authority (LTA)
• related Inchcape affiliates and companies
• CMS dealers, where applicable
• insurers and financiers
• other companies or individuals, including legal counsel and information technology service providers, who assist us in providing services or who perform functions on our behalf (e.g., mailing houses of letters or printers for our marketing materials) who are contract bound to comply with our Privacy Policy and that of the PDPA.

Those external organisations are not authorised by us to use your Personal Data for anything other than the purpose(s) for which we supplied that information to them. Some of our information technology service providers are located overseas and, as a result, Personal Data collected and held by us may be transferred overseas in accordance with the requirements of the PDPA.

Unless otherwise required or permitted by law, we will only disclose your Personal Data with your consent (implied or expressed), and we will also take reasonable steps to ensure the external organisation to whom we have disclosed your information are also legally bound to protect the privacy of your Personal Data.
