U88's Six Data Protection Principles

We go beyond mere legal compliance — we take extra steps to ensure your personal data is truly safe in our hands.

Military-Grade Encryption

Every piece of data you transmit to the u88 platform is protected by 256-bit SSL encryption and TLS 1.3 protocol — the same standard used by leading banking institutions in Malaysia. Your data never moves without protection.

You Are in Control of Your Data

You have the right to review, update, or request deletion of your personal data at any time. Requests are processed within 72 business hours. u88 respects your choices without unnecessary questioning.

No Sale of Data to Third Parties

U88 has never and will never sell, rent, or trade your personal information to any third party for marketing purposes. Your data belongs to you — not our business commodity.

Restricted & amp; Controlled Data Access

Only u88 staff who require access to your data for operational purposes are authorised to do so. Every access is logged, audited, and regularly monitored by our internal security team.

Malaysia PDPA Compliance

The u88 Privacy Policy is designed to fully comply with Malaysia's Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA). We conduct annual compliance reviews to ensure our practices remain aligned with the latest legal requirements.

Immediate Incident Notification

In the event of any security incident involving your data, u88 is committed to notifying you within 72 hours. Transparency is one of our core values — you have the right to know.

Important Note: This Privacy Policy applies to all users of the u88 platform across our website, mobile app, and all service channels. By using the u88 platform, you agree to the collection and use of information as described here.
1Personal Information We Collect

U88 collects various categories of personal information depending on how you interact with our platform. This collection occurs directly from you, automatically through your use of the platform, and in some cases, via trusted third parties.

Data Categories Examples of Information Collection Methods
Identity Data Full name, date of birth, MyKad / passport number Account Registration, KYC
Contact Data Email address, phone number, residential address Registration, profile updates
Financial Data Bank account number, eWallet details, transaction records Deposits, withdrawals, KYC
Technical Data IP address, device type, browser, operating system Automatically collected during use

We do not collect sensitive information such as biometric data, medical records, religious beliefs, or political views unless required by applicable law. All data collected is kept to the minimum necessary to deliver quality service to you.

2How We Use Your Information

Personal data you provide to u88 is used responsibly for the following purposes only. We will not use your data beyond the scope stated here without first obtaining fresh consent from you.

  • Account Management: Creating, maintaining, and protecting your account on the u88 platform.
  • Identity Verification (KYC): Fulfilling legal obligations to verify user identity before financial transactions are processed.
  • Transaction processing: Handling deposits, withdrawals, and all financial transactions securely and promptly.
  • Customer support: Providing effective assistance whenever you contact the u88 support team.
  • Platform security: Detecting and preventing fraud, money laundering, and suspicious activity.
  • Service Improvements: Analyzing aggregated usage patterns to improve the user experience.
  • Marketing communications: Sending promotional information and exclusive offers — only if you have given your consent.
  • Legal compliance: Meeting reporting obligations to the relevant authorities when required.
Your Choices: You may withdraw consent to receive marketing communications at any time via your account settings or by contacting the u88 support team. Withdrawing consent does not affect the core services you use.
3Legal Basis for Data Processing

U88 processes your personal data on one or more valid legal bases under Malaysia's Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA):

  • Consent: You have given explicit consent for data processing for specific purposes, such as marketing communications.
  • Contract performance: Processing is necessary to perform the service agreement between you and u88, including account management and transaction processing.
  • Legal obligation: Processing is required to comply with applicable legal obligations, including anti-money laundering (AML) and KYC requirements.
  • Legitimate interest: Processing is necessary for the legitimate interests of u88 or third parties, such as detecting fraud and ensuring platform security.

For each processing activity, we ensure the most appropriate legal basis is identified and documented. You have the right to obtain an explanation of the legal basis applied to each instance of processing your data.

4Information Sharing and Disclosure

U88 do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to third parties for marketing purposes. However, we may share your information in the following limited circumstances:

  • Trusted service providers: Companies that help us operate the platform — such as payment processors, cloud service providers, and identity verification firms — are all bound by strict data protection agreements.
  • Regulatory authorities: When required by Malaysian law or directives from a competent authority, such as Bank Negara Malaysia or the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC).
  • Fraud Investigation: To law enforcement agencies in cases of fraud, money laundering, or serious security threats.
  • Business transfers: In the event that u88 undergoes a corporate restructuring, merger, or acquisition, users will be notified in advance.
Our Commitment: All third parties that receive your data are required to protect that information to a security standard equal to or higher than that practised by u88 itself.
5Data Security Measures

U88 continually invests in high-grade security infrastructure to protect your personal data from unauthorised access, loss, misuse, or disclosure. The technical and organisational measures we implement include:

  • Data encryption in transit using 256-bit SSL/TLS.
  • At-rest encryption for all sensitive information.
  • Two-factor authentication (2FA) is mandatory for internal system access.
  • 24/7 security monitoring by a dedicated information security team.
  • Quarterly penetration testing conducted by independent security firms.
  • Role-based access control (RBAC) to limit internal data exposure.
  • Regular data backups and a disaster recovery plan that is periodically tested.
  • Security awareness training for all u88 staff twice a year.

While we take all reasonable precautions, no system can guarantee 100% absolute security. We encourage you to also take your own protective measures, such as using a strong password and never sharing your login credentials with anyone.

6Data Retention Period

U88 retains your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes stated in this Privacy Policy, or as required by applicable law. Specific retention periods are as follows:

Data Type Retention Period Reason
Active account data For the duration of the active account Service operational requirements
Financial transaction records 7 years after transaction AML legal obligations
KYC Documents 5 years after account closure Regulatory requirements
Support communication logs 3 years Dispute Resolution
Marketing data Until consent is withdrawn Consent-based

When the retention period expires, data will be securely deleted or anonymised for statistical purposes. You may request information on the specific retention period for your data by contacting our privacy team.

9Cross-Border Data Transfers

In conducting global operations, your personal data may be transferred to and stored on servers located outside Malaysia. u88 ensures all such transfers are protected by appropriate safeguard mechanisms, including:

  • Data processing agreements with internationally recognised standard protection clauses.
  • Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA) prior to transfers to new jurisdictions.
  • Ensuring recipients comply with equivalent or higher data protection standards.

The u88 platform is strictly for individuals aged 21 and above. We do not intentionally collect any personal information from minors. Should we discover that we have inadvertently collected personal data from an underage individual, we will take immediate action to delete that information and close the relevant account.
