Six core principles that guide how 188bet handles the personal data of every Malaysian member.
All data transmitted between your device and 188bet's servers is protected by 256-bit SSL encryption — the same level of security used by Malaysia's leading banking institutions. Your information cannot be intercepted while in transit.
188bet has never and will never sell, rent, or trade members' personal information to any third party for marketing or commercial purposes. Your data is not a commodity — it is a trust we take seriously.
The 188bet Privacy Policy is developed in compliance with Malaysia's Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA). We uphold your privacy rights as guaranteed by law and ensure our data handling practices remain current with the latest requirements.
188bet only collects data that is strictly necessary to provide the services you use. We do not collect information that is unrelated to account operations, transaction processing, or improving your user experience.
As a 188bet member, you have the right to access, correct, delete, or restrict the processing of your personal data. Privacy rights requests are handled by our support team within 14 business days.
You may opt out of marketing communications from 188bet at any time — via your account settings, by replying to a promotional email, or by contacting our support team. Opt-out requests will be actioned within 5 business days.
This Privacy Policy ("Policy") describes how 188bet ("Platform", "we") collects, uses, stores, and protects the personal information you provide when using 188bet's platform, services, and products. This Policy applies to all registered members and visitors of the 188bet platform in Malaysia.
By registering an account or continuing to use the 188bet platform, you confirm that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy and agree to the collection and use of your data as described herein. If you do not agree with any part of this Policy, please discontinue use of the platform and contact us for further assistance.
188bet collects various types of personal information to deliver and secure the services you use. The following are the categories of data we collect:
Sensitive Data: 188bet does not collect sensitive information such as biometric data, medical information, or religious beliefs. Credit card details are not stored directly by 188bet — all FPX transactions are processed directly through secure banking systems without card data passing through our servers.
The personal data we collect is used solely for legitimate and specific purposes. Below is a full list of how your data is used:
| Purpose of Use | Type of Data Used | Requirements |
|---|---|---|
| Account registration and management | Name, email, phone number, password | Required |
| Identity verification (KYC) | Identity documents | Required |
| Processing deposits and withdrawals | Bank/e-wallet details, transaction history | Required |
| Providing customer support | Account information, interaction history | Required |
| Fraud detection and security | IP address, session data, transaction patterns | Required |
| Personalising offers and game recommendations | Game history, user preferences | Optional |
| Marketing and promotional communications | Email, phone number | With consent |
| Platform analytics and improvement | Anonymised usage data | Optional |
For marketing communications, you may choose whether to receive promotional emails, SMS notifications, or in-app alerts from 188bet. You can update these preferences at any time via your account settings or by contacting our support team.
188bet never uses your data to make automated decisions that negatively affect your rights as a member without human review. All major decisions concerning your account — including suspension or closure — involve review by our team.
188bet does not sell, rent, or disclose members' personal data to third parties for marketing or commercial purposes. However, in the course of operating the platform, we may share necessary data with the following categories of parties:
188bet works with third-party service providers that assist in operating the platform, including payment processors (FPX, Touch 'n Go, GrabPay, and others), gaming software providers, cloud infrastructure suppliers, and customer support services. All such parties are contractually bound to protect your data and are only permitted to use it for purposes directed by 188bet.
188bet may be required to disclose member personal information to the relevant authorities where mandated by applicable Malaysian law, court order, or investigation by a law enforcement agency. In such cases, 188bet will endeavour to notify the member concerned in advance where permitted by law.
In the event that 188bet is involved in a merger, acquisition, or asset sale, member personal data may be transferred as part of that transaction. In such cases, members will be notified and the same or stricter privacy standards will continue to apply.
Important Note: 188bet never shares your personal information with third-party advertisers or marketing analytics companies for targeted advertising outside of our own platform.
188bet continually invests in security infrastructure to ensure your personal data remains protected at all times. The following are the key security measures we have in place:
While we take comprehensive security measures, no system is entirely foolproof. You also play an important role in keeping your account safe — never share your password with anyone, use a strong and unique password, and enable two-factor authentication where available.
188bet uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your experience on our platform. Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit our website.

As a 188bet member based in Malaysia, you have the following rights regarding your personal data, in accordance with the Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA) of Malaysia:
You have the right to request a copy of the personal data we hold in relation to your account. Such requests will be processed within 14 business days from the date of receipt.
If you find that any information in your account is inaccurate or out of date, you can update it through your account settings or by contacting 188bet support.
For data processed on the basis of your consent (such as marketing communications), you may withdraw that consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out prior to the withdrawal.
You may object to the processing of your data for direct marketing purposes at any time. 188bet will honour such requests without delay.
You may request the deletion of your personal data when it is no longer required for the original purpose of collection, subject to our legal obligations to retain certain records for a prescribed minimum period.
If you believe that 188bet has violated your privacy rights, you may submit a complaint directly to us at support@188bet-vip.net. You also have the right to refer your complaint to the Personal Data Protection Commissioner of Malaysia.
To submit any request relating to your privacy rights, please contact the 188bet support team via live chat or send an email to support@188bet-vip.net stating the type of request and your account details. We will verify your identity before processing the request.
188bet retains members' personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the original purpose of collection and to comply with applicable legal obligations. The following guidelines outline our retention periods:
Once the specified retention period has elapsed, personal data will be securely deleted or anonymised in a manner that can no longer be linked to the individual concerned.
188bet reserves the right to update or amend this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in our data handling practices, current legal requirements, or platform operational improvements. The "Updated" date at the top of this page will reflect the date of the most recent amendment.
For significant amendments — particularly those that materially affect your privacy rights — 188bet will notify members via their registered email or through a prominent in-platform notification at least 14 days before the changes take effect. Continued use of the platform after the effective date of any amendment will be considered acceptance of the revised Privacy Policy.
We encourage you to review this page periodically to stay informed on how 188bet handles your personal data. If you disagree with any amendments made, you may close your account and request data deletion by contacting our support team.

In today's digital landscape, most of us have come to accept that online platforms collect user data — often more than we realise. Some platforms treat that data as an additional revenue stream, selling it to advertisers or marketing companies. At 188bet, we take a different stance, and we want you to know exactly where we stand.
188bet members' personal data — names, email addresses, phone numbers, financial information, and activity history — is never sold, rented, or shared with third-party advertisers. Full stop. We collect the data necessary to operate the platform safely and effectively, and we use it for that purpose alone. If you register a 188bet account today and opt out of marketing communications, you will not receive any promotional emails or SMS messages — and your preference will be respected without exception.
For Malaysian players, trust in an online casino platform begins with confidence that their personal and financial information is in safe hands. We understand that you are entrusting us not only with your name and email address, but also your bank details and financial transaction history. We take this responsibility seriously — which is why we invest in banking-grade security infrastructure and undergo independent security audits on a regular basis.
The KYC (Know Your Customer) process carried out by 188bet — which may require you to submit a copy of your MyKad or bank statement — goes beyond mere regulatory compliance. It is also a protection mechanism for you as a member. Identity verification ensures that no one can open an account using your information without your knowledge, and that your winnings are paid out to you and no one else.
We believe that Malaysian players on 188bet deserve more than just a great gaming experience — they deserve the peace of mind that their information is protected and their privacy rights are respected. That is our commitment, and we will continue to uphold it every day.
