Welcome 88's Six Privacy Commitments to You

The core principles that underpin how we manage your personal data

SECURITY
Military-Grade Encryption

All your personal data — from account information to transaction details — is secured with 256-bit SSL encryption, the same technology used by leading financial institutions and banks in Malaysia to protect their digital assets.

TRANSPARENCY
No Sale of Data to Third Parties

Welcome 88 has never sold, rented, or shared member personal data with third parties for marketing purposes — and never will. Your information belongs to you, not to us.

LIMITED PURPOSE
Data Used for Specific Purposes Only

Every piece of data we collect serves a clear and specific purpose — account management, payment processing, customer support, and service improvement. We do not collect data beyond what is necessary.

Information Sharing & Disclosure

Welcome 88 never sells, rents, or trades your personal data to third parties for their own marketing purposes. However, there are limited circumstances in which your information may be shared with certain parties:

Trusted Service Providers

We work with carefully selected third-party service providers to support platform operations — including payment processors (FPX gateways, e-wallet operators), security technology providers, and analytics platforms. All such providers are bound by strict confidentiality agreements and may only use your data for purposes we have specified.

Legal Requirements

Welcome 88 may disclose members' personal information when required by Malaysian law, a court order, or a valid request from a competent authority in Malaysia — including for the purposes of financial crime prevention and anti-money laundering (AML) compliance.

In all instances of data sharing, welcome 88 ensures that adequate protections are in place and that data is used solely for specific, legitimate purposes.
5

Our Data Security Measures

Welcome 88 continuously invests in security infrastructure to ensure your personal data is always protected against unauthorised access, loss, or misuse:

  • Data Encryption in Transit: All communications between your browser or app and Welcome 88's servers are encrypted using TLS 1.3 protocol (256-bit SSL).
  • Stored Data Encryption: Sensitive data is stored in encrypted form within our secure database — passwords are never stored in plain text.
  • Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): We offer 2FA via OTP for all member accounts as an additional layer of protection.
  • Internal Access Controls: Access to member data within the welcome 88 organisation is restricted to staff who require it to perform their specific responsibilities.
  • Regular Security Audits: Security assessments and penetration testing are conducted periodically by independent specialists.
  • 24/7 Monitoring: Our real-time monitoring system detects and flags any suspicious activity on the platform.
While we take all reasonable security measures, no system is 100% foolproof. In the event of a security incident affecting your data, welcome 88 will notify you within 72 hours in accordance with our incident response procedures.

Data Retention & Deletion Period

Welcome 88 retains your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes outlined in this privacy policy, or as required by applicable Malaysian law.

  • Active Account Data: Retained for as long as your account remains active on the welcome 88 platform.
  • Financial & Transaction Data: Retained for a minimum of 7 years following the transaction date, in accordance with Malaysian accounting and tax legislation.

Once the retention period expires, data will be securely deleted or fully anonymised so that it can no longer be linked to any individual.

9

Cross-Border Data Transfers

In certain cases, your personal data may be processed or stored on servers located outside Malaysia — particularly in connection with gaming technology providers, cloud services, or international security infrastructure used by welcome 88.

Any transfer of data outside Malaysia is only carried out when:

  • The recipient country or region maintains a standard of data protection comparable to Malaysia's.
  • Appropriate data transfer agreements have been put in place with data recipients, including recognised standard contractual clauses for data protection.
  • The transfer is necessary for the performance of a contract between you and Welcome 88 (for example, processing international payments).
Welcome 88 ensures that all cross-border data transfers comply with the requirements of Malaysia's Personal Data Protection Act 2010. Your data will not be transferred to any country with inadequate data protection without your consent.
10

Child Protection

The welcome 88 platform is intended for individuals aged Aged 18 and above only. We do not knowingly collect or process personal data from individuals under the age of 18.

Should we determine that personal data of a minor has been collected without proper age verification, we will take immediate steps to delete that data and close the account in question.

Parents or guardians who discover that their minor child has registered on the welcome 88 platform are requested to contact us immediately at support@welcome88.click so that immediate action can be taken.
