01Introduction and Scope of Privacy Policy

918kes ("we", "the platform", "us") is committed to protecting the privacy and personal data security of every user on our online gaming platform at 918kes.com. This Privacy Policy is drafted in accordance with the Malaysian Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA) and global data protection best practices.

This document applies to all information we collect through the 918kes.com website, the 918kes mobile app, and all related communication channels including email, live chat, and phone support. This policy covers all registered users as well as visitors browsing our platform.

By registering an account, making a deposit, or using any of our games or services, you confirm that you have read and understood how we handle your personal data as described in this Privacy Policy.

This Privacy Policy is provided in English for the convenience of our users. It is an official, binding document governing the data relationship between you and 918kes.

02Types of Personal Data We Collect

918kes collects various categories of personal data necessary to provide services that are safe, fair, and legally compliant. Below is a summary table of the data we collect:

Data Category Example Information Requirements
Personal Identity Full name, date of birth, IC/passport number Mandatory (KYC)
Contact Information Phone number, email address, mailing address Mandatory
Financial Data Bank account number, transaction records, payment methods Mandatory (AML)
Technical Data IP address, device type, browser, operating system Automatic
Usage Data Game history, session duration, game preferences Automatic
Communications Data Support chat records, feedback, complaints Situational

We only collect data that is strictly necessary for the stated purposes. This "data minimisation" principle ensures we do not gather information that is excessive or irrelevant to the services we provide.

03How We Collect Your Data

918kes collects personal data through various transparent and controlled channels. Understanding how data is collected helps you make more informed decisions about the information you share with us.

  • Account Registration: Information you enter directly when creating a new account, including your name, email, and phone number.
  • KYC Process: Identity documents you upload as part of the legally required identity verification process.
  • Financial Transactions: Information obtained when you make a deposit or withdrawal via supported payment methods.
  • Platform Usage: Data is collected automatically via cookies, tracking pixels, and similar technologies as you browse and use our platform.
  • Support Interactions: Information you provide when contacting our customer support team via live chat or email.
  • Third-Party Sources: In certain cases related to AML compliance, we may receive information from legitimate identity verification service providers or financial institutions.

You may always choose not to provide certain information, but this may limit your access to some features or services on the 918kes platform.

04Purpose of Personal Data Usage

918kes uses collected personal data solely for legitimate, clearly stated purposes. We will not use your data for any other purpose without obtaining your prior consent. The primary purposes for data use are as follows:

  • Account Management: Creating, verifying, and managing your user account, including a secure login process.
  • Transaction Processing: Processing deposits, withdrawals, and all financial transactions securely and efficiently.
  • Legal Compliance: Fulfilling our obligations under Malaysia's PDPA, anti-money laundering (AML) laws, and KYC requirements set by the relevant authorities.
  • Platform Security: Detecting and preventing fraud, hacking, multi-account usage, and any suspicious activity.
  • Service Improvement: Analysing usage patterns to improve user experience, platform performance, and the range of games offered.
  • Service Communications: Sending important notifications related to your account, transactions, terms updates, and security information.
  • Marketing (with consent): Sending promotions, bonuses, and exclusive offers to users who have consented to receive marketing communications.

Every use of data is grounded in a valid legal basis — whether your consent, contractual necessity, legal obligation, or the platform's legitimate interest in operating a responsible business.

05Data Sharing and Disclosure

918kes will not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to any third party. However, in certain limited and controlled situations, we may share your data with the following parties:

  • Technology Service Providers: Companies that help us provide technical infrastructure, payment processing, and platform hosting — all subject to strict data protection agreements.
  • Game Providers: Game provider partners who require minimum technical data to ensure smooth and fair gameplay.
  • Regulatory Authority: When required by law or by direction of a competent authority, including financial regulatory bodies and law enforcement agencies.
  • Identity Verification Services: Third-party KYC providers used to verify user identity for legal compliance purposes.

All third parties who receive your data are required to meet data protection standards equal to or higher than our own. Such data sharing is conducted on a minimum-necessary basis — we only share what is strictly required for the specific purpose.

If data needs to be transferred outside Malaysia, we will ensure that adequate protection exists in the recipient country before any transfer is made.

06Data Security Measures

Your data security is 918kes's number one priority. We invest in cutting-edge security infrastructure and adopt a multi-layered approach to ensure your data is always protected against cyber threats.

The technical security measures we implement include:

  • Data encryption in transit using TLS 1.3 and SSL 256-bit protocols
  • Stored data encryption using AES-256 algorithm for all sensitive information
  • Two-factor authentication (2FA) for user accounts and internal staff access
  • 24/7 security monitoring with automated intrusion detection system (IDS)
  • Regular penetration testing conducted by independent security experts
  • Role-based access control (RBAC) ensuring each staff member can only access the data required for their specific role.
  • Secure data backups and a tested disaster recovery plan

While we take all reasonable steps to protect your data, no security system can guarantee 100% protection against all threats. You also play a role in keeping your account secure by using a strong password and not sharing your login credentials.

In the event of a data breach affecting your information, 918kes will notify you within the timeframe required by applicable law and take immediate remedial action.

The retention period may be extended if there is an ongoing investigation, unresolved dispute, or other legal requirement that necessitates keeping the data for a longer period.

FAQ

FAQ – 918kes Privacy Policy

Answers to the most frequently asked questions by users regarding data protection and privacy on our platform.

Absolutely not. 918kes has never and will never sell, rent, or trade users' personal data to any third party for commercial purposes. Your data is only shared with service providers who assist us in operating the platform, and all such parties are bound by strict data protection agreements. Your privacy is a trust we take very seriously.

You may submit a data access request by contacting our support team via email at [email protected] or through the in-platform 24/7 Live Chat. Please clearly state that you wish to make a "Subject Access Request". We will process your request within 30 working days and provide a copy of your data in a readable format.

When you close your account, we will continue to retain certain data for the period required by law — for example, financial records must be kept for 7 years for tax compliance and AML purposes. Once the mandatory retention period expires, your data will be securely deleted using industry-standard methods. You may request further details on specific retention periods for your data categories through customer support.

Sensitive financial information such as full card numbers and PINs are not stored directly on 918kes servers. All transactions are processed through certified payment gateway providers that comply with PCI DSS standards. We only retain the information needed to verify your identity as the account holder for withdrawal purposes — this is an industry-standard requirement to prevent fraud and money laundering.

Yes, you may opt out of marketing communications at any time. Simply click the "Unsubscribe" link at the bottom of any promotional email we send, or update your communication preferences via the account settings in the platform. You may also contact customer support to request a manual opt-out.

918kes implements multiple layers of security to protect your account. These include 256-bit SSL encryption for all data communications, two-factor authentication (2FA) which can be enabled via account settings, real-time monitoring of suspicious login activity, automatic account lockout after repeated failed login attempts, and instant notifications for any unusual account activity. We strongly recommend enabling 2FA and using a unique, strong password for maximum security.
