This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard information when you visit thenewgate.com or use our services.

Under Singapore's PDPA, we collect, use, and disclose personal data with your consent, where required, or under one of the legitimate exceptions (e.g., business improvement, legal obligations).

Under Japan's APPI, we handle personal information based on the specified purpose of use communicated at the time of collection and do not use it beyond that purpose without your consent.

6. Data Retention

We retain personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purpose for which it was collected or as required by law. Client data is retained for the duration of the service relationship plus a minimum of 7 years for legal and accounting compliance. Marketing consent records are retained until consent is withdrawn.
