At plae8, member privacy is more than a legal obligation — it is a core value we uphold. This document clearly explains what data we collect, why we collect it, how it is used and protected, and what rights you have as a member of our platform. It is written in plain, easy-to-understand language so that every Malaysian player knows exactly how their information is handled by plae8.
Six core principles that shape how plae8 manages the personal data of every member on our platform.
Plae8 only collects personal data that is strictly necessary for the operation of the platform — there is no excessive or arbitrary data collection. Every piece of data we collect has a clear purpose, explicitly stated in this policy. This principle of data minimisation is fundamental to how we operate.
All personal data and financial information of plae8 members is protected with 256-bit SSL encryption during transmission and AES-256 encryption at rest. plae8's server infrastructure is regularly audited by independent security specialists to ensure there are no vulnerabilities that could be exploited by external parties.
Plae8 never sells, rents or transfers members' personal data to any third party for marketing or commercial purposes. Your information belongs to you — we are merely its custodian, not its owner. This is an unconditional commitment with no exceptions.
Only plae8 staff who require access to your personal data in order to carry out their authorised duties are permitted to do so — on a strict need-to-know basis. All access to member data is logged and audited. Violations of plae8's internal access policy are treated as a serious disciplinary matter.
As a plae8 member, you have the right to access, correct, transfer, and request the deletion of your personal data at any time. Requests will be processed within 30 business days. plae8 will not obstruct or impose additional conditions on members exercising these rights.
In the event of any security incident that may involve members' personal data, plae8 is committed to notifying affected members within 72 hours of becoming aware of the incident — in line with international data protection standards. We will also communicate the steps taken to address the incident.
This Privacy Policy ("Policy") describes how plae8 — accessible at plae8.click — collecting, using, storing, processing, and protecting the personal data of members and users of our platform. This Policy applies to all individuals who register an account, use any of our services, access the website, or interact with the plae8 platform in any capacity.
Plae8 recognises that member trust is the most valuable asset we hold. That trust can only be built and maintained when members know exactly how their personal data is managed. That is why this document is written in clear, plain language — not in deliberately confusing legal jargon.
By registering for or using the plae8 platform, you consent to the data collection and use practices described in this Policy. If you disagree with any part of this Policy, please discontinue use of the plae8 platform and contact us to close your account.
This Privacy Policy should be read together with Terms & Conditions and Responsible Gaming Policy plae8, all of which together form the complete agreement between you and our platform.
When you register for and use the plae8 platform, you provide us with the following personal data directly:
When you use the plae8 platform, our systems automatically collect the following technical data:
| Data Category | Specific Examples | Basis for Collection |
|---|---|---|
| Identity | Full name, MyKad number, date of birth | Contractual requirements & KYC |
| Contact | Email address, phone number | Contractual requirement |
| Financial | Bank accounts, MY e-wallets | Payment Processing |
| Technical | IP address, browser type | |
| Usage | Game history, betting records | Platform operations & AML |
Plae8 collects personal data through your direct interactions with the platform, including:
When you browse or use the plae8 platform, technical data is collected automatically via cookies, tracking pixels, and similar technologies. This allows us to ensure the platform functions correctly, detect and prevent fraud, and understand usage patterns for the purpose of platform improvement.
Plae8 may receive your personal data from third parties in certain contexts, such as identity verification through a licensed KYC provider, or payment processing through our partnered payment providers. All such third parties are bound by strict data confidentiality agreements and may only use your data for the specified purpose.
Plae8 uses collected personal data solely for legitimate, stated purposes. Below is a complete list of how we use your data:
Plae8 will not use your personal data for purposes other than those stated above without first obtaining your explicit additional consent.
Plae8 does not sell, rent, commercialise, or transfer members' personal data to any third party for marketing, advertising, or commercial purposes. This is a non-negotiable principle with no exceptions.
In certain limited circumstances, plae8 may share your personal data with the following parties, and only to the extent necessary for the stated purposes:
All third parties that process personal data of plae8 members are bound by comprehensive data processing agreements. These agreements require them to: protect data to security standards equivalent to those of plae8; use data only for the specified purposes; not transfer data to any other party without plae8's consent; and comply with all applicable data protection laws.
As a platform operating in Malaysia for Malaysian players, plae8 stores and processes members' personal data primarily within server environments serving the Asia region. In certain circumstances, data may be processed by technical service providers operating in other countries.
Where cross-border data transfers occur, plae8 ensures that protections equivalent to those set out in this Policy are applied to that data, through legally binding contractual agreements with data recipients in the relevant countries. plae8 will not transfer members' personal data to countries that lack an adequate level of data protection without putting additional safeguards in place.
Financial data and local Malaysian payment information (DuitNow, Touch 'n Go eWallet, GrabPay and others) are processed through Malaysia's payment infrastructure and are subject to Bank Negara Malaysia regulations as well as the privacy policies of the respective e-wallet providers.
Plae8 retains members' personal data for as long as the account remains active and for a defined period following account closure to meet legal and regulatory requirements. Our retention schedule is as follows:
| Data Type | Retention Period | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Active account information | For as long as the account is active | Platform operations |
| Financial transaction records | 7 years after the transaction | Malaysian legal requirements |
| KYC Documents | 5 years after account closure | |
| Support communication logs | 3 years | Dispute resolution |
| Technical log data | 12 months | Security & audit |
| Marketing data (with consent) | Until consent is withdrawn | Promotional communications |
Plae8 implements a comprehensive range of technical and organisational security measures to protect members' personal data against unauthorised access, loss, destruction, or disclosure:
When personal data is no longer required for its intended purpose and the mandatory retention period has expired, plae8 will securely delete or anonymise the data using methods that comply with international standards for irreversible data deletion.
As a plae8 member and data subject under Malaysian data protection law, you have the following rights in relation to your personal data:
You have the right to obtain a copy of the personal data we hold about you, along with information on how that data is used. Requests will be processed within 30 business days.
You have the right to correct any personal data that is inaccurate or incomplete. Most profile information can be updated directly in your plae8 account settings.
You may request the deletion of your personal data when it is no longer necessary. Such requests are subject to Malaysian legal retention requirements, which may prevent immediate deletion.
You have the right to request that we restrict the processing of your personal data in certain circumstances — for example, if you dispute the accuracy of the data or object to its use.
You have the right to receive your personal data in a commonly used, machine-readable format and to transfer it to another party if required.
You have the right to object to the processing of your personal data for direct marketing purposes at any time, and we will stop immediately upon receiving your request.
To exercise any of the rights above, please contact the plae8 privacy team by email: support@plae8.click stating the right you wish to exercise and providing sufficient information for us to verify your identity. We will respond within 30 business days. If your request cannot be fulfilled in full for legal reasons, we will clearly explain why.
