208 Privacy Policy – How We Protect the Personal Information of Malaysian Users
This Privacy Policy explains how 208 collects, uses, stores and protects users' personal information. By using our platform, you agree to the practices described in this document.
Effective Date: 1 January 2026 | Version: 2026.1
What Information Do We Collect from Users?
208 collects several categories of information depending on how you interact with our platform. This information is necessary to deliver a secure, personalised and properly functioning service.
Account & Identity Information
During registration, we collect your full name, email address, phone number, date of birth and identification number. This information is required to verify your identity, comply with legal requirements and ensure that only eligible users can access the 208 platform.
Financial & Payment Information
To process deposits and withdrawals in Malaysian Ringgit (MYR), we collect the information necessary for transactions, such as bank account holder name and account number for payment purposes. We do not store full credit or debit card details — payment processing is handled through secure, compliant third-party payment gateways.
Device, Browser & Usage Information
208 automatically collects technical data including IP address, device type, phone model, operating system, browser version, language settings and screen resolution. We also record usage data such as pages visited, session duration, games played and login frequency. This data helps us identify technical issues, improve platform performance and personalise the user experience.
Cookies & Tracking Technologies
The 208 platform uses cookies and similar technologies such as web beacons and local storage to remember user preferences, maintain login sessions and analyse usage patterns. The cookies we use fall into three categories: essential cookies (required for core functionality), analytics cookies (to understand how users interact with the platform) and preference cookies (to remember your settings). You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings, though this may affect certain platform features.
How Is Your Information Used?
208 uses the information collected for the following purposes, all directly related to providing services to Malaysian users:
- Account Management: Creating and maintaining user accounts, processing registrations and verifying identity through required KYC procedures.
- Transaction Processing: Processing deposits, withdrawals and other financial transactions in MYR securely and accurately.
- Service Improvements: Analysing usage data to identify areas for improvement, fix technical bugs, and optimise the overall gaming experience.
- Security & Fraud Prevention: Detecting suspicious activity, preventing unauthorised access and safeguarding the integrity of the platform and user funds.
- Communications: Sending account-related notices, policy updates, promotional information (where you have consented), and responses to customer support enquiries.
- Legal Compliance: Fulfilling legal and compliance obligations, including reporting to relevant authorities where required by applicable law.
208 does not use your personal information for any purpose beyond those stated above without first obtaining your consent.
Is Your Information Shared with Third Parties?
208 does not sell, rent or trade users' personal information to third parties for marketing purposes. However, in certain limited situations, information may be shared as follows:
- Service Provider: We work with third-party companies that provide supporting services such as payment processing, server hosting and analytics. These providers receive only the information necessary to carry out their functions and are bound by strict confidentiality agreements.
- Legal Requirements: We may disclose information to government authorities or law enforcement bodies when required by law, court order or valid legal process.
- Rights Protection: Where necessary to protect the rights, property or safety of 208, its users or the general public, certain information may be disclosed.
- Business Transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition or asset sale, user information may be transferred as part of that transaction, with appropriate notice given to affected users.
How Is Your Data Stored and Protected?
208 takes its responsibility to protect users' personal information seriously. Multiple layers of technical and organisational security measures are in place to prevent unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration or destruction of data.
All data transmitted between user devices and 208 servers is protected using Transport Layer Security (TLS) encryption. Data stored on our servers is secured with additional encryption, and access to user databases is restricted to staff who require it to perform their duties.
User account passwords are never stored in plain text — they are saved as one-way hashed values that cannot be decrypted. This means even 208's internal staff cannot view your original password.
Personal information is retained for as long as necessary to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected or to meet legal requirements. Upon account closure, personal data will be deleted or anonymised within a reasonable period, unless a longer retention period is required by law.
User Rights Over Their Personal Data
As a 208 user, you have certain rights regarding your personal information. These rights can be exercised by contacting our customer support team.
You have the right to request a copy of the personal information we hold about you. Such requests will be processed within 30 business days.
If the information we hold about you is inaccurate or outdated, you may request a correction via your account settings or by contacting support.
You may request the deletion of your account and personal data. Such requests are subject to any applicable legal retention obligations.
You may object to the processing of your data for specific purposes such as direct marketing by contacting us, and we will cease that use accordingly.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
208 reserves the right to update or amend this Privacy Policy at any time. Material changes will be communicated to registered users via an in-platform notice or email at least seven days before taking effect. Continued use of the platform after changes come into force constitutes acceptance of the updated policy. You are encouraged to review this page periodically.
For any privacy-related enquiries, concerns or requests, please reach out to our team: [email protected]. We will endeavour to respond within 72 business hours.
