Privacy Policy

Last updated: 12 June 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Data.ik.sg handles information when you browse the site, search datasets, and use data finder pages.

Information we collect

Data.ik.sg does not currently require user accounts. The information we process is mainly limited to technical and usage data needed to operate the service.

  • Basic request information such as IP address, browser type, device details, referring pages, timestamps, and requested URLs may be captured in server or application logs.
  • Search keywords, filters, requested dataset downloads, and postal-code lookup requests may be processed so the site can return results and diagnose problems.
  • Essential cookies or similar storage may be used for session handling, security protections, and core site functionality.

How we use information

We use limited technical information to run, secure, and improve the service.

  • To render pages, return search results, serve downloads, and maintain the website.
  • To detect abuse, troubleshoot failures, rate-limit automated traffic, and protect the service.
  • To understand which pages and tools are useful so the catalog and finder experience can be improved.

Third-party datasets

Data.ik.sg republishes or references datasets and records gathered from multiple sources, including services such as data.gov.sg and OneMap. Each dataset may have different ownership, access conditions, and licence terms. Data.ik.sg does not claim ownership of third-party source data.

How information may be shared

Data.ik.sg may share information with infrastructure, hosting, logging, or security providers to the extent reasonably necessary to operate the site. Information may also be disclosed when required by law, legal process, or to protect the rights, safety, and integrity of the service.

Retention

Technical logs, session records, and operational data are retained only for as long as reasonably needed for security, troubleshooting, analytics, and legal compliance.

Security

Reasonable technical and organizational safeguards are used to protect information processed by the site. No online service can guarantee absolute security, so you should use the service with that understanding.

Children

Data.ik.sg is a general-information website and is not directed specifically to children.

Changes to this policy

This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time. The revised version will be posted on this page with the updated effective date.
