Play88 takes your privacy seriously. This document clearly explains how we collect, use, store, and protect the personal data of all platform members in accordance with Malaysia's Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA).
Six core principles that guide how play88 handles your personal data
All data transmitted between your device and play88's servers is protected by 256-bit SSL encryption — the same standard used by Malaysia's major banks such as Maybank and CIMB. This ensures no third party can intercept your information in transit.
Play88 fully complies with Malaysia's Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA) — the primary legislation governing the handling of personal data in this country. Every aspect of our data collection, storage, and usage is designed in accordance with this law.
Play88 has never sold, rented, or disclosed members' personal data to advertisers, data brokers, or any third party for commercial purposes — and never will. Your data belongs to you, not play88.
Play88 collects only the data genuinely necessary for platform operations and legal compliance. We do not collect excessive or irrelevant information. Every category of data we collect has a clearly defined purpose, disclosed transparently in this policy.
You have the full right to access, review, amend, and request the deletion of your personal data held by play88. All data rights requests are processed within 14 business days at no charge to you.
Play88 has a clear policy on data retention periods. Data that is no longer required for operational or legal compliance purposes will be deleted or anonymised according to a set schedule — your data is not kept indefinitely without reasonable justification.
Under Malaysia's PDPA 2010, you have eight data protection rights that play88 fully respects

Object to the processing of your data for direct marketing or profiling purposes at any time.
Request play88 to restrict the processing of your data under certain circumstances while a dispute is being resolved.

This Privacy Policy applies to all members and users of the play88 platform in https://play88-khelo.com. By registering for or using our platform, you agree to the handling of your personal data as described in this document. This policy should be read together with Terms & Conditions play88.
Play88 ("We", "Platform") is the data controller responsible for personal data collected through our platform. We recognise that trust is the foundation of our relationship with every member, and protecting data privacy is an integral part of that trust.
This Privacy Policy has been drawn up to meet the requirements of Malaysia's Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA) and sets out transparently how play88 collects, processes, stores, and protects the personal information of all users on our platform — whether you are a registered member actively playing live baccarat or blackjack, someone considering signing up, or simply browsing our website.
Play88 has appointed a Data Protection Officer responsible for ensuring that all data processing activities comply with applicable legal requirements. All privacy-related enquiries or complaints may be directed to this officer through the channels set out in Section 11 of this document.
Play88 collects personal data through several different methods throughout your interactions with our platform. Below is a comprehensive overview of the types of data we may collect and the context in which they are collected.
| Data Category | Specific Details |
|---|---|
| Identity Data | Full name, date of birth, MyKad number (for KYC verification), identity photo (where required for verification) |
| Contact Data | Active Malaysian mobile number, email address (if provided), delivery address (if applicable) |
| Account Data | Username, password (hashed — never stored in plain text), language preference, account settings |
| Financial Data | Deposit and withdrawal history, payment methods used (Touch 'n Go, DuitNow, FPX, GrabPay, Boost, ShopeePay), transaction reference numbers |
| Game Data | Betting history, game results, account balance, Live Casino and Sports Betting activity, bonus and rebate records |
| Technical Data | IP address, device type and operating system, web browser type, cookie data, access logs, session duration |
| Communication Data | Customer support chat records, emails sent to play88, feedback submitted |
Play88 does not collect sensitive personal data such as medical information, religious beliefs, or political views except where required by law. We also do not collect biometric data other than identity photos that may be required for KYC purposes in relation to large withdrawals.
Play88 uses collected personal data only for legitimate purposes that do not conflict with your interests as a member. Below is a detailed explanation of each data use purpose and the legal basis supporting it.
Managing account registration, verifying identity, processing deposits and withdrawals, ensuring winnings are correctly credited, and providing access to all games on the play88 platform. These are fundamental to our contract with you and cannot be waived without affecting our ability to deliver services.
Fulfilling obligations related to anti-money laundering (AML) compliance, verifying member age, responding to requests from relevant authorities, and detecting and preventing fraudulent activity. These are legal obligations we must meet as a licensed online platform operator in Malaysia.
We analyse login patterns and gaming activity to detect unauthorised access attempts, bot activity, and unfair system exploitation. Technical data such as IP addresses and device information is used solely for platform security and member account protection.
Monitoring gameplay patterns to identify signs of problem gambling and reaching out to members who may need support. This is a legitimate interest of play88 and forms part of our commitment to member well-being. Members may opt out of such communications at any time via account settings.
Sending information about promotions, bonuses, and new platform features via SMS or in-platform notifications. play88 only sends marketing communications to members who have given their consent. You may opt out of marketing communications at any time through your account settings or by contacting our support team.
Analysing usage data in aggregate (not at the individual level) to understand how members interact with the platform, identify areas for improvement, and develop more useful new features. Data is anonymised prior to analysis and cannot be traced back to any specific individual.
Play88 does not sell or disclose members' personal data to third parties for their own commercial purposes. However, in the course of operating the platform, certain categories of third parties may access member data under limited and controlled circumstances.
| Third Parties | Purpose & Access Restrictions |
|---|---|
| Payment Processors | Touch 'n Go, DuitNow, FPX, GrabPay, Boost, ShopeePay — only the data necessary to process deposit and withdrawal transactions. These providers maintain their own privacy policies and are subject to Bank Negara Malaysia regulations. |
| Game Providers | Live casino studios and gaming software providers offering baccarat, blackjack, roulette, and other games. Access is limited to the game data necessary to process bets and payouts only. |
| Technology Infrastructure Provider | Cloud and hosting service providers that store our data. All such providers are required to comply with strict security standards and are bound by data processing agreements. |
| Legal Authorities | The Royal Malaysia Police, Companies Commission of Malaysia, Bank Negara Malaysia, and other relevant authorities — only when required by a court order or valid legal obligation. |
Every third party that accesses play88 member data is bound by legally enforceable confidentiality and data processing agreements. They are only permitted to use that data for the specific authorised purposes, and play88 actively monitors their compliance with these agreements.
Play88 continuously invests in security infrastructure to ensure members' personal data is protected to the highest level technically and operationally achievable. Below is an overview of the key security measures we have in place.
While play88 takes comprehensive steps to protect your data, no security system can guarantee 100% absolute protection against all threats. You also play an important role in securing your account by using a strong password, keeping your login credentials private, and enabling 2FA.
Play88 retains personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the original purpose of collection or to meet applicable legal requirements. Our key data retention schedule is as follows:
| Data Type | Retention Period |
|---|---|
| Active member account data | For the duration of the active account plus 7 years after account closure (legal requirement) |
| Live casino session recordings | 30 days from the session date (for dispute resolution purposes) |
| Financial transaction history | 7 years (Malaysian PDPA and tax law requirements) |
| Support communication records | 3 years from the date of last communication |
| Technical & security logs | 90 days (unless related to an active investigation) |
| Marketing & communication preference data | Until consent is withdrawn by the member |
| KYC verification data | 5 years from the date of verification (AML requirement) |
Once the applicable retention period has expired, data will be securely deleted or anonymised so that it can no longer be linked to any specific individual. The deletion process follows procedures that ensure data cannot be recovered once removed.
