Part 10: Protection of Personal Data
Kalibra places great importance on ensuring the security of our Prospects, Members, Employees and Freelancers Personal Data against risks of unauthorised access, collection, use, disclosure, copying, modification, disposal or destruction. Kalibra has implemented security measures which include appropriate administrative, physical and technical measures such as up-to-date antivirus protection, encryption and the use of privacy filters to secure all storage and transmission of Personal Data by us, and disclosing Personal Data both internally and to our authorised third party service providers and agents only on a need-to-know basis.
Kalibra will regularly review and implement appropriate security measures when processing and retaining Personal Data. While acknowledging that security cannot be guaranteed and that no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is completely secure, Kalibra strives to protect the security of our information and is constantly reviewing and enhancing the company’s information security measures.
Employees of Kalibra are required to handle the Personal Data securely and with strict confidentiality, failing which they may be subject to disciplinary action. Further, Kalibra will impose compliance with data confidentiality requirements on our agents, third party service providers, consultants and professional advisors in our working relationships and/ or agreements with these parties.
Kalibra’s Members should recognize that protecting Personal Information is their responsibility. We ask all Members to safeguard Member’s password, secret questions and answers, and other authentication information a Member uses to access our Services. Members should not disclose their authentication information to any third party. Members should also immediately notify us of any unauthorized use of a Members password. We cannot secure Personal Information that a Customer or Member releases on their own or that a Member requests us to release. A Member may choose to disclose, through other means not associated with us, any part of their Personal Information and/or Genetic Information. A Member may share this information with friends or family members, groups of individuals, third-party service providers, doctors or other health care professionals, or other individuals. We recommend that all Members make such choices carefully.
Part 11: Disclosure of Personal Data
Kalibra and its Affiliates will take reasonable steps to protect Personal Data against unauthorised disclosure. Subject to the provisions of any applicable law, Personal Data may be disclosed, for the purposes listed in Section 8 of this Policy to the following entities or parties, whether they are located overseas or in Singapore:
- Amongst Kalibra group members and Affiliates (including their coaching staff and medical practitioners);
companies providing services relating to insurance to Kalibra; - Agents contractors, sub-contractors or third party service providers who provide operational services to Kalibra, such as courier services, telecommunications, information technology, payment, printing, billing, debt recovery, processing, technical services, transportation, training, market research, call centre, security, or other services to Kalibra;
- Vendors or third party service providers and our marketing and business partners in connection with marketing promotions, products and services;

any other party to whom a Member authorises us to disclose Personal Data to.
Part 12: Access and Correction to Personal Data
A Member may make a request to access his/her Personal Data which is in Kalibra’s possession or control. The Member must complete a data access request (“DAR”) form which a Member may fill out providing all necessary information as prescribed in the DAR form. We do not charge a fee for a DAR request in normal circumstances although we may charge a reasonable fee for further copies of information already provided or for requests that are manifesting unfounded or excessive, particularly where those requests are repetitive.
Kalibra aims to revert within 30 days from the receipt of the DAR request. If Kalibra is unable to comply with the DAR requirements within the said time frame, Kalibra will have to inform the Member the reasonably soonest time by which a response will be provided in relation to the request.
A Member may make a request for correction of his/her Personal Data which is in Kalibra’s possession or control. The Member should contact Kalibra’s Data Protection Officer whose details are contained within section 19 of this Policy.
A Member may make a request for transfer of his/her Personal Data which is in Kalibra’s possession or control. The Member should contact Kalibra’s Data Protection Officer whose details are contained within section 19 of this Policy. To the extent required by PDPA, upon request by a Member, Kalibra shall provide information relating to how the Member’s Personal Data has been or may have been used or disclosed within a year before the date of such request. Kalibra may also provide a standard list of possible third parties as part of its response to all access requests for information relating to the disclosure of Personal Data during such a period.
Employees who wish to access or correct their Personal Data should contact the HR Department of Kalibra. Potential Employees who were subsequently not employed by Kalibra or former Employees of Kalibra should complete the DAR/DCR form as mentioned in section 10 above (as the case may be).
Kalibra may not be able to provide access to all of the Personal Data that we hold about an individual. For example, Kalibra may not provide access to Personal Data if such provision could reveal Personal Data about another individual, if such information is subject to legal privilege or if provision will be contrary to national interest or where such refusal is permitted under the PDPA. If access to Personal Data cannot be provided, the reasons for denying access will be provided to Member within 30 days of receipt of the DAR form, subject to any legal or regulatory constraints.
Part 13: Retention and Disposal of Personal Data
Kalibra retains such Personal Data as may be required for business or legal purposes, and such purposes do vary according to the circumstances.
Kalibra does not retain Personal Data (and in particular sensitive personal data) for any longer than necessary. The length of time over which Personal Data may be retained is dependent upon the circumstances including why the personal information was obtained in the first place.
Whilst Kalibra will securely dispose of or anonymise Personal Data which it can reasonably determine is no longer needed and does not generally hold on to Personal Data “just in case”, it is in the interests of any caregiver or person treating a Prospect or Member to be able to refer to a complete set of biomarker records to avoid risks to health and safety of a Prospect or Member.
With respect to the biomarker records of a Prospect or Member, unless specific contrary instructions from the Prospect or Member are received, Kalibra may (but is not obliged to) retain such medical records for as long as Kalibra may be potentially consulted for further follow up by (or on behalf of) the Prospect or Member even where such consultation may not occur until after a substantial period of time or there is no current or present indication that the Prospect or Member may well return for further consultation or follow up.
A Prospect or Member has the right to request that we dispose of the Personal Data we hold about them in the following circumstances:
- Where it is no longer necessary for us to retain that personal data having regard to the purpose for which it was originally collected or processed;
- Where the Prospect or Member wishes to withdraw consent to holding and Processing of Personal Data previously given to Kalibra;
- Where the Prospect or Member objects to us holding and Processing their Personal Data and no overriding legitimate interest permitting Kalibra to continue doing so exists;
- The Personal Data of the Prospect or Member has been Processed unlawfully; or Kalibra needs to dispose the personal data in order to comply with a particular legal obligation.
Unless Kalibra has reasonable grounds for refusing to erase Personal Data, all erasure requests shall be complied with within one month from the receipt of the Prospect or Member’s request. In the event that any Personal Data that is to be disposed in response to a Prospect or Member’s request has been disclosed to Affiliates or third parties, those Affiliates or third parties will be informed of the disposal unless to do so is impossible or would require disproportionate effort.
Part 14: Storage of Personal Data
Kalibra will ensure that all electronic copies of Prospects and Members Personal Data will be stored securely using passwords and appropriate data encryption. Suitable backups will be made of all Personal Data that is stored electronically. We will store two (2) backup copies on different storage media. All backups will also be encrypted.
Prospects and Members Personal Data will not be transferred to any device personally belonging to any personnel of Kalibra.
Part 15: Use of Cookies, Web Beacons and Similar Technologies
When a Prospect or Member visits or interacts with out sites, Services, Kalibra or our authorized service providers may use cookies, web beacons, and other similar technologies for collecting and storing information to help provide Prospects and Members with a better, faster and safer web experience. The information collected by us or our authorised service providers may recognise a visitor as a unique user and may collect information such as how a visitor arrives at our sites, what kind of browser a visitor is on, what operating system a visitor is using, a visitor’s IP address and a visitor’s click stream information and time stamp (for example, which pages they have viewed, the time the pages were accessed and the time spent per web page).
The use of cookies, web beacons and similar technologies by us on our website has different functions. They are either necessary for the functioning of our Services, help us improve our performance, or serve to provide a Member with extra functionalities. They may also be used to deliver content that is more relevant to a Member’s interests, or to target advertising to a Prospect or Member on or off our sites.
Cookies – Small text files (typically made up of letters and numbers) placed in the memory of a Prospect or Members browser or device when a Prospect or Member visits a website or views a message. Cookies allow a website to recognize a particular device or browser. There are several types of cookies: Session cookies expire at the end of a Prospect or Member’s browser session and allow us to link a Prospect or Member’s actions during that particular browser session. Persistent cookies are stored on a Prospect or Member’s devices in between browser sessions, allowing us to remember a Prospect or Member’s preferences or actions across multiple sites. First party cookies are set by the site a Prospect or Member is visiting. Third party cookies are set by a third-party site separate from the site a Prospect or Member is visiting. Cookies can be disabled or removed by tools that are available in most commercial browsers. The preferences for each browser a Prospect or Member uses will need to be set separately and different browsers offer different functionality and options.
Web beacons – small graphic images (also known as “pixel tags” or “clear GIFs”) may be included on our sites and services. Web beacons typically work in conjunction with cookies to profile each unique user and user behavior.
Similar technologies – technologies that store information in Prospect or Member’s browser or device utilizing local shared objects or local storage, such as flash cookies, HTML 5 cookies, and other web application software methods. These technologies can operate across all Prospect or Member’s browsers.
We offer certain site features and services that are available only through the use of these technologies. Prospects and Members are always free to block, delete, or disable these technologies based on their browser functionalities. However, if a Prospect or Member declines cookies or other similar technologies, a Prospect of Member may not be able to take advantage of certain site features or service tools. For more information on how a Prospect or Member can block, delete, or disable these technologies, please review browser settings.
Our website may contain links to other websites operated by third parties, including for example our business partners. We are not responsible for the data protection practices of websites operated by third parties that are linked to our website. We encourage Prospects and Members to learn about the data protection practices of such third party websites. Some of these third party websites may be co-branded with our logo or trademark, even though they are not operated or maintained by us. Once a Prospect or Member has left our website, a Prospect or Member should check the applicable Data Privacy Policy of the third party website to determine how they will handle any information they collect from a Prospect or Member.
Part 16: Transfers of Personal Data outside of Singapore
We generally do not transfer a Prospect or Members Personal Data to countries outside of Singapore. However, if we do so, we will obtain the Prospect or Member’s express consent for the transfer to be made and we will take steps to ensure that their Personal Data continues to receive a standard of protection that is at least comparable to that provided under the PDPA. For Prospect or Members outside of Singapore, we can provide locally hosted services in accordance with local regulations and laws, but in general Prospects and Members information is housed on servers in Singapore. If a Prospect or Member is located outside of Singapore, please be aware that the Personal Data we collect will be processed and stored in Singapore (the data protection and privacy laws in Singapore may offer a lower level of protections than in other countries or regions).
By using our Services and submitting Personal Data, a Prospect or Member agrees to the transfer, storage, and/or processing of a Prospect or Member’s Personal Data in Singapore. Where and as required, we will seek a Prospect or Member’s express consent as outlined in this Policy.
Part 17: Training
We will ensure that all personnel of Kalibra receive adequate training as to their data protection responsibilities and as to how to act and respond as and when they receive requests for matters such as subject access requests, objections and requests for erasure and rectification. Those whose roles require regular access to Personal Data, or who are responsible for implementing this Policy or responding to subject access requests under this policy, will receive additional training to help them understand their duties and hot to comply with them.
Part 18: Data Breaches

Kalibra will ensure that any data breach which results, or is likely to result in, significant harm to an affected individual or is otherwise of a significant scale is notified within seventy-two (72) hours to the PDPC and within a reasonable amount of time as may be practicable to all Prospects or Members affected by the data breach.
Part 19: Data protection management programme (“DPMP”) and Data Protection Officer
Under the PDPA, organisations are required to develop and implement policies and practices that are necessary for the organisation to comply with the PDPA (i.e. Personal Data protection policies and practices). The DPMP is a data protection framework that helps organisations establish a robust data protection infrastructure. It covers management policies and processes for the handling of Personal Data, as well as defining roles and responsibilities of the people in the company in relation to Personal Data protection. As a company incorporated in Singapore, Kalibra is required by the PDPA to designate one or more individuals to act as the data protection officer (“DPO”) of the company. The DPO is in charge of ensuring that the organisation complies with the PDPA. This is part of the Accountability Obligation of organisations under the PDPA.
Mr. Ivan Vatchkov, Director of Kalibra, has been appointed as our DPO. He is responsible for informing and advising us on our data protection obligations, for monitoring compliance and for ensuring that we comply with our obligations in accordance with this Policy. Comments or queries concerning this Policy should be addressed to him at +65 91694054 or at support@kalibra.ai
The DPO will deal with issues relating to this Policy and the application of data protection law including:
- Issues relating to the correct lawful basis to be applied to Personal Data collected, held or processed and in particular when consent or legitimate interest is being relied upon;
- Issues relating to the use to which data can be put having regard to the purpose for which it was acquired;
- Issues relating to the periods for which Personal Data is retained;
- Privacy notices and when these are required;
- Subject access requests as set out in Part V of the PDPA;
- Actual or suspected data breaches or issues relating to security arrangements;
- Sharing data with third parties and transferring data from outside Singapore;
- Where processing uses new technologies and is likely to result in a high risk to the rights and freedoms of natural persons and a data protection impact assessment is required;
- In relation to automated processing, including profiling or automated decision making; and
- In relation to information which is deemed to be special category data or data relating to children (for the avoidance of doubt, Kalibra’s products and services are not designed and aimed at children under the age of 18 and it is Kalibra’s policy to immediately delete children’s Personal Data where this is discovered to be the case).
