COOKIES

What is a cookie?

Cookies are small files which are placed on your computer when you access a website or app – amongst other things; they help the website user to navigate efficiently between pages and the website operator to track usage of the site.

You can find out more about cookies at www.allaboutcookies.org.

Why we use cookies 

Our website uses cookies to distinguish you from other users of our website by storing, generally non-personally identifiable, information (e.g. session information such as the number of times you visit our website and the location from which you are accessing the website). Note that some limited information is personally identifiable for the purposes of:

• managing and customizing your experience on the website/platform;
• analysing trends and improving our site for our users; and
• delivering content tailored to your interests and the manner in which you browse our websites and platforms.

Any other information is anonymized and/or aggregated to produce statistical reports that enable us to evaluate the use of our website; and to make improvements to, and increase efficiency when you browse our website.

WHAT DO WE USE COOKIES FOR?

We use cookies: (i) to track your activities on our website; and (ii) the purposes described in this Privacy Statement, but they will not generally allow us to obtain information of a personal nature such as your name and address. We will only be aware of such information if you provide the information to us or you have set the preferences in your browser to provide this information automatically.

We use the information collected to analyse trends and improve our site for our customers, as more particularly described below.

WHAT ARE MY OPTIONS IN RELATION TO THE USE OF COOKIES?

By using our website, apps or platforms, you agree to the use of cookies and other technologies as set out in this Privacy Statement. If you do not agree to such use please either refrain from using the relevant website, app or platform, or click to "Turn off cookies" in the banner that is displayed when you first visit the website. Note, however, that clicking "Turn off cookies" will only turn off what we refer to below as "performance cookies" – "strictly necessary cookies" and "targeting cookies" (which we do not directly control) will still be used. Alternatively, however, see the section below “Can you disable cookies?” to adjust your settings.

You can find more information about the individual cookies we use and the reasons why we use them in the table below.

Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are necessary for the website to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually only set in response to actions made by you which amount to a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in or filling in forms. You can set your browser to block or alert you about these cookies, but some parts of the site will not work as a result. These cookies do not store any personally identifiable information.

Performance Cookies

These cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our site. They help us know which pages are the most and least popular and see how visitors move around the site. All information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymised. If you do not allow these cookies, we will not know when you have visited our site and will not be able to monitor its performance.

Functional Cookies

These cookies enable the website to provide enhanced functionality and personalisation. They may be set by us or by third party providers whose services we have added to our pages. If you do not allow these cookies, some or all of these services may not function properly.

Targeting Cookies

These cookies may be set through our site by our advertising partners. They may be used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant adverts on other sites. They do not store directly personal information but are based on uniquely identifying your browser and internet device. If you do not allow these cookies, you will experience less targeted advertising.

CAN YOU DISABLE COOKIES?

Yes, your browser will enable you to disable, control or delete cookies if you wish.  Further information can be found in the “Help” section of your browser or at www.allaboutcookies.org. However, you should note that if you choose to do this, it may have an impact on the quality of your browsing experience.

Please note that changing these settings may limit the functionality of some web pages or prevent them from loading properly. Additionally, the major browsers have attempted to implement the draft “Do Not Track” (DNT) standard of the World Wide Web Consortium in their latest releases. As this standard has not been finalized, this website is not compatible with DNT and does not process DNT messages.

It may also be processed by staff operating outside Singapore who work for us or for one of our service providers. For the purposes of European data protection laws (where they apply), you should be aware that Singapore and the other countries in which your personal data are located may not have data protection laws which have been acknowledged to ensure adequate protection for personal data for the purposes of those laws.

We retain your personal data for as long as necessary for the fulfilment of the purposes for which it was collected or to which you have given your consent, except where otherwise provided for by law.

RIGHT TO WITHDRAW CONSENT, REQUEST ACCESS TO, AND CORRECTION OF PERSONAL DATA

You have the right to withdraw any consent that you may have given, request access to, and correction of personal data that Temasek holds about you in accordance with applicable laws. Where our processing is subject to European data protection laws, you may also have additional rights, subject to exceptions, to object to our processing of your personal data, to request that it is deleted or to require us to restrict our processing so that the data is retained but not actively used. Where we are processing your personal data on the basis of your consent, you may also have a right to require a copy of any personal data that you have provided to us to be "ported" to you, or to another service provider, in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format.

All requests for the withdrawal of consent, or to exercise any of these rights, can be made by completing Temasek's standard request form (form available here), and sending a copy of the duly completed form to, or otherwise by contacting, Temasek,
