Privacy policy

What we collect, why we need it, what other people can see, and how to exercise your privacy rights.

Last updated 2026-09-11 Operated by Tech Ninja Enterprise (003276888-W)

What we collect

Account detailsYour name and email address.

Verified mobile numberUsed to confirm a Malaysian number and send one-time verification codes.

Purchases and kudos activityWhat you bought, when you bought it, and the creators you supported.

Creator informationYour channel identity and the profile details you choose when claiming a page. For an Instagram or TikTok claim, also the message you send our @ipohdotmy account to prove it is yours.

Listing reportsThe reason, details, and contact information you choose to provide. An account is not required.

Technical logsOrdinary server data, including IP addresses, for security and abuse investigation.

Payment details stay with the payment provider

We never see your card number, bank login, or one-time banking code. We receive the payment result and a reference from the licensed payment provider.

Why we use your data

We use it to operate your account, verify supporters and creators, count kudos, maintain receipts, respond to reports, prevent fraud and board manipulation, and meet tax and record-keeping obligations.

We do not buy or sell personal data, and we do not use advertising trackers.

What is public

Featured.my is a public leaderboard. Creator profiles and rankings are visible by design, along with a supporter's display name where the product shows supporter activity. Email addresses, mobile numbers, and purchase histories are never public.

Crowns are permanent public records. We record placings only for boards where at least 10 creators received kudos in that month or year; for a smaller board, no placing is recorded and no name is kept from it. If a creator later removes their profile, an awarded crown remains under the name recorded at the time but no longer links to a profile or exposes contact information.

Who else receives data

We share data only with suppliers needed to operate Featured.my: payment processing, verification-code delivery, email delivery, and hosting. They process it to provide those services. Some may process data outside Malaysia.

Creator claims for Instagram, TikTok and Facebook are checked through our social media accounts, @ipohdotmy, which Featured.my shares with Ipoh.my. A message you send us there is held in that platform's inbox under that platform's own privacy policy, and is read only by the team that checks claims. Delete the conversation on your side whenever you like once your claim is confirmed. We also disclose information where the law requires it.

YouTube channels are claimed by signing in with Google, which handles that sign-in under its own privacy policy. We read your Google account's name and email address and your channel's details once, to confirm the channel is yours, and we do not keep the access Google grants us. Featured.my's use and transfer of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

How we protect it

Traffic is encrypted in transit, passwords are hashed, and production database access is limited to people who need it. No system is perfect; where a breach affects you, we will notify you as required.

How long we keep it

  • Account dataWhile the account exists.
  • Purchases and kudos recordsSeven years after the transaction for tax and accounting records.
  • Server logsFor a short operational and security period.
  • CrownsIndefinitely as a public historical record.
  • Listing reportsKept with the hidden listing as a record of why it was removed. Report details are never public.

Ask us if you want a nomination record erased rather than only hidden.
