Privacy policy
Last updated: 22 September 2026
FOURTREES RESOURCES SDN BHD operates Fourtrees, a website and app for property and tenancy management. This policy explains how we handle information about tenants, property owners, property agents and staff. Accounts are provided by Fourtrees; public self-registration and room booking are not offered in the current app release.
1. Information we handle
Depending on your role and the services you use, we handle your name, email address, telephone number, account identifier and role; property, room and tenancy details; agreements and identity documents where needed for the service; bills, receipts, payment, deposit, commission and settlement records; maintenance requests, complaints, messages and uploaded files or photos.
We receive information from you and from authorised Fourtrees staff, owners or agents managing the relevant property or tenancy. Authentication, session and security records, IP addresses and technical request or device information may also be processed to operate and protect the service. Device notification identifiers are processed if notifications are enabled.
2. Why we use information
We use information to create and authenticate managed accounts, administer properties and tenancies, provide role-specific records, verify bank-transfer receipts, manage collections and settlements, respond to maintenance requests and enquiries, communicate service information, prevent misuse, maintain audit records, and meet applicable legal obligations or resolve disputes. We also use email addresses to send company marketing emails.
Information needed to identify an account, manage a tenancy or verify a payment is necessary for that service. If it is not provided, we may be unable to complete the relevant task. Optional uploads and device permissions depend on the feature you choose.
3. Who can receive information
Relevant records are available to authorised Fourtrees staff and, where needed for their responsibilities, the owner or assigned property agent. Tenants and owners receive information relevant to their own tenancy or property. We may provide necessary records to professional advisers, authorities or other parties where required or permitted by law, or to deal with a specific dispute.
Supabase provides authentication, database and file-storage services; Vercel hosts the website and application services. Our company email service processes correspondence you send us. Google Maps processes map and place requests when you use a map feature. Apple Push Notification service processes iPhone notification identifiers and notification delivery information when push is enabled. Opening WhatsApp or another external service is subject to that service’s privacy policy.
Service providers may process information outside Malaysia. Applicable safeguards and legal requirements apply to these transfers. We limit disclosures to the information needed for the relevant service or obligation.
4. Device permissions and local storage
Camera, photo or file access is used when you choose to capture or upload a document or image. You can control permissions in your device settings; denying a permission may prevent that feature from working. If push notifications are available, you can manage them in device settings.
The website and app use cookies or local storage for sign-in sessions, security, language and introductory-screen preferences. Clearing them may sign you out or reset preferences. A map or external service you open may also process technical information under its own policy.
5. How long information is kept
We keep information for the relevant service and for necessary accounting, contractual, legal or dispute purposes. Our company retention baseline is at least seven years after the relevant transaction or operation is completed for financial records such as receipts, deposits, commission payments and settlements. Agreements are retained during their term and for seven years after both termination and final settlement. A longer applicable legal requirement or specific hold may extend retention.
Identity-card and passport copies do not automatically follow the financial-record schedule. Their purpose and any specific legal obligation are assessed separately. After actual move-out or the end of another service relationship, we review personal information that is no longer needed. Necessary retained records have restricted access. Backup, audit and security records may remain for their applicable retention periods; deletion does not mean every backup copy disappears immediately.
6. Your choices and deletion requests
Contact us at the email below to request access to or correction of your information, withdraw consent where applicable, ask about retention, or request account and personal-data deletion. We may need to verify your identity and clarify the request. If an in-app deletion option is available in Settings, you can use it to initiate a request. You can also contact us if you cannot sign in.
Deletion is subject to necessary record-retention obligations and is not immediate. We assess what can be removed and explain any records that must be retained and why. Deleting an account does not terminate a tenancy, waive a debt or erase required financial evidence. We will explain if a request cannot be fully completed or needs further information. Withdrawing consent may affect services that require the relevant information.
7. Protection of information
We use measures including authenticated access, role-based permissions and restricted document access to protect information. No system or method of transmission is completely secure. Please protect your credentials and contact us if you suspect unauthorised access.
8. Changes and privacy enquiries
We may update this policy when our services or data practices change. The date above identifies the current version. For privacy enquiries, access, correction or deletion requests, contact the company below. You may also raise concerns with the relevant personal data protection authority.
