2. Purpose of Collecting & Processing Your Data
Your personal data is processed strictly for legitimate business and fulfillment purposes, including:
- Baking, packing, and preparing your made-to-order artisanal cakes and desserts.
- Coordinating store pickup or dispatching orders with air-conditioned delivery drivers.
- Sending essential transactional communications: Order confirmation receipts, payment notifications, pickup readiness alerts, and delivery updates via Email and WhatsApp.

- Responding to your inquiries, customer service requests, or order amendments.
- Complying with statutory accounting, tax reporting, and legal obligations in Malaysia.
3. Disclosure to Third Parties
We will never sell, rent, trade, or distribute your personal data to third parties for marketing purposes. Your data is only shared with authorized partners who assist in our direct operations:
- Logistics & Delivery Partners: Recipient name, delivery address, and phone number are provided to our drivers solely to execute and deliver your order within the designated window.
- Address Search: When Google Maps address suggestions are enabled, search text is sent to Google to find matching addresses. You may enter your address manually instead.
- Delivery Coverage Checks: When checking a delivery address, its street/building address, postcode, and city are sent to Google Geocoding and Routes to match the destination, calculate driving distance, and determine the café's delivery fee. This check also applies to manually entered delivery addresses.
- Payment Processors: Authorized Malaysian financial payment gateways (FPX, credit card, e-wallet processors) to verify and process transactions.
- Cloud & Technology Infrastructure: Reputable cloud hosting (Vercel), database storage (Supabase), and notification providers (Resend, WhatsApp Cloud API) operating under strict security standards.
- Regulatory Authorities: Government agencies or law enforcement where required by Malaysian law.
4. Data Security & Kitchen Safeguards
We implement technical and organizational security measures to protect your data against unauthorized access, loss, or misuse:
- Encrypted data transmission across the entire website via Secure Socket Layer (SSL/TLS).
- Database Row-Level Security (RLS) restricting customer access solely to their own records.
- Role-based staff permissions: Kitchen and production staff only view product quantities, items, and first names on daily prep summaries; full phone numbers and addresses are restricted to management.
5. Data Retention
We retain your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy, manage customer service, and comply with Malaysian statutory retention periods (such as 7 years for financial and tax records). When personal data is no longer required, it is safely deleted or anonymized.
6. Your Rights Under the PDPA
