Privacy is the Foundation of Intelligence.
Effective Date: February 25, 2026
At Pearl River Metrics, we recognize that our trade flow intelligence is only as valuable as the trust we build with our partners. This policy outlines our rigorous standards for handling your personal and corporate identifiers within our analytical ecosystem.
Our Methodology of Disclosure
Pearl River Metrics operates at the intersection of global trade data and localized export analysis. Unlike generic logistics firms, our import statistics are refined through a lens of strict data minimization. We do not aggregate for the sake of volume; we aggregate for the sake of insight, ensuring individual privacy remains intact while systemic patterns emerge.
Primary Constraint
Analytical integrity never bypasses individual consent. We prioritize the anonymization of trade-sensitive markers before any data enters our secondary processing stream.
Information Inventory
| Category | Specific Purpose | Retention |
|---|---|---|
| Business Identifiers | Authentication for trade data dashboards and export analysis tools. | Active account duration plus 24 months. |
| Technical Metadata | Optimizing portal performance and identifying regional latency issues. | Rolling 90-day window. |
| Communication Logs | Refining customer support queries regarding import statistics. | 3 years post-resolution. |
Encryption at the Source
Pearl River Metrics employs AES-256 encryption for all data at rest and TLS 1.3 for data in transit. We maintain specialized partitions between our public-facing trade analysis portals and our internal core modeling database.
- Zero-knowledge architectures for sensitive proprietary trade corridors.
- Regular third-party vulnerability assessments to simulate threat actor scenarios.
- Strict role-based access control (RBAC) enforced within our Kuala Lumpur operations center.
Your Sovereignty Over Data
Access and Portability
You have the right to request a machine-readable export of all business identifiers we store. This includes activity logs related to your custom trade data queries.
Rectification & Deletion
Should any export analysis parameters be linked incorrectly to your profile, you may request correction. Permanent deletion is available provided it does not conflict with Malaysian financial audit requirements.
The Right to Object
You may opt-out of secondary data processing involving predictive market intelligence modeling that utilizes your historical interaction patterns.
