Last Updated:
January 15, 2025 | This privacy policy complies with Thailand's Personal Data Protection
Act (PDPA) B.E. 2562 and international data protection standards.
Who We Are and What This Covers
Prog-plan operates from Thailand and provides budget
prioritization tools and educational resources to help individuals and organizations
manage their finances more effectively. When we say "we," "us," or "our," we're referring
to Prog-plan located at 40 3340, Bo Kwang Thong, Bo Thong District, Chon Buri 20270,
Thailand.
This policy applies to information we collect through
prog-plan.com, our educational programs, and any related services. If you're sharing
financial data with us or participating in our learning programs, you deserve to know
exactly what happens to your information.
Information We Collect
Being transparent about data collection matters to us.
Here's what we gather and why we need it:
Information You Provide Directly
- Account details including your name, email address, and phone number when you
register for our services
- Financial information such as budget categories, spending patterns, and financial
goals you input into our tools
- Program enrollment data when you sign up for our learning programs scheduled
throughout 2025 and 2026
- Communication records when you contact us at contact@prog-plan.com or call
+6627598481
- Payment information processed through secure third-party payment processors (we
don't store complete card details)
Information Collected Automatically
- Device information including IP address, browser type, and operating system
- Usage data such as pages visited, features used, and time spent on our
platform
- Cookies and similar tracking technologies (you can control these through your
browser settings)
- Location data based on your IP address to provide region-appropriate content
We don't sell your personal information to third
parties. Your financial data remains confidential and is used solely to provide you
with better budget prioritization tools.
How We Use Your Information
Your data serves specific purposes that directly
benefit your experience with our services. We use the information we collect to:
- Provide and improve our budget prioritization tools and ensure they work
effectively for your needs
- Personalize your experience by offering relevant financial insights based on your
spending patterns
- Communicate important updates about your account, service changes, or upcoming
educational programs
- Process transactions securely and maintain accurate financial records
- Analyze usage patterns to identify areas where our tools can be enhanced
- Comply with legal obligations under Thai law and international regulations
- Protect against fraud, unauthorized access, and other security threats
- Send educational content and program updates if you've opted in to receive
them
We base our data processing on several legal grounds
including your consent, contractual necessity, legitimate interests, and legal compliance
requirements under the PDPA.
Data Sharing and Third Parties
We're selective about who we share your information
with. Here are the only circumstances where your data might be shared:
Service Providers
We work with trusted third-party companies that help us
operate our platform. These include cloud hosting providers, payment processors, and
email service providers. They only access the information necessary to perform their
services and are contractually obligated to protect your data.
Legal Requirements
Sometimes we're legally required to disclose
information. This happens when we receive valid legal requests from Thai authorities,
need to enforce our terms of service, or must protect the rights and safety of our users
and the public.
Business Transfers
If Prog-plan merges with another company or is
acquired, your information would be transferred as part of that transaction. We'd notify
you before this happens and explain any changes to how your data is handled.
We never share your financial data for marketing
purposes or with data brokers. Your budget information stays within our secure
systems.
Your Privacy Rights Under Thai Law
Thailand's PDPA gives you significant control over your
personal data. You have the right to:
- Access: Request a copy of all personal
information we hold about you
- Correction: Ask us to correct inaccurate
or incomplete data
- Deletion: Request deletion of your data
when it's no longer necessary for the purposes we collected it
- Portability: Receive your data in a
structured, commonly used format to transfer to another service
- Objection: Object to processing of your
data for specific purposes
- Restriction: Request that we limit how
we use your information
- Withdrawal of Consent: Withdraw consent
for data processing at any time (though this may limit service functionality)
To exercise any of these rights, contact us at
contact@prog-plan.com. We'll respond to your request within 30 days as required by Thai
law. Some requests may require identity verification to protect your security.
Data Security Measures
Protecting your financial information is our top
priority. We implement multiple layers of security:
- Industry-standard encryption (TLS 1.3) for all data transmitted between your device
and our servers
- Encrypted storage for sensitive financial data at rest
- Regular security audits and vulnerability assessments conducted quarterly
- Restricted access controls ensuring only authorized personnel can access personal
data
- Multi-factor authentication options for your account protection
- Regular backups stored in secure, geographically distributed locations
- Employee training on data protection and privacy best practices
Despite our best efforts, no system is completely
secure. If we detect a data breach that affects your information, we'll notify you within
72 hours as required by Thai law and take immediate steps to mitigate any harm.

retain different types of information:

you.
International Data Transfers
Our primary servers are located in Thailand, but some
of our service providers operate globally. When your data is transferred outside
Thailand, we ensure it receives equivalent protection through:
- Standard contractual clauses approved by Thai data protection authorities
- Adequacy decisions recognizing equivalent data protection standards
- Binding corporate rules for multinational service providers
- Your explicit consent where required by law
We only transfer data internationally when necessary to
provide our services and always with appropriate safeguards in place.
Cookies and Tracking Technologies

technologies. Here's what you should know:

These are necessary for the website to function. They
enable basic features like page navigation and access to secure areas. The website can't
function properly without them.

We use these to understand how visitors interact with
our website. This helps us improve user experience and identify technical issues. The

Children's Privacy
Our services are designed for adults managing personal
or organizational budgets. We don't knowingly collect information from individuals under
18 years old without parental consent. If you're a parent and believe your child has
provided us with personal information, contact us immediately at contact@prog-plan.com
and we'll delete it.
Our educational programs scheduled for late 2025 and
2026 may include participants aged 16-17 with verified parental consent, handled
separately with additional protections.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We update this policy occasionally to reflect changes
in our practices or legal requirements. When we make significant changes, we'll notify
you through email or a prominent notice on our website at least 30 days before the
changes take effect.

when it was most recently revised. Continuing to use our services after changes become
effective means you accept the updated policy.
Complaints and Regulatory Authority
If you're not satisfied with how we've handled your
privacy concerns, you have the right to file a complaint with Thailand's Personal Data
Protection Committee. However, we'd appreciate the opportunity to resolve your concerns
directly first.
You can reach the Thai PDPC through their official
channels, though we encourage you to contact us first so we can address your concerns
promptly and directly.
