Important Note: This Privacy Policy describes W99's data protection practices and applies to all users of our platform in Malaysia. By using W99's services, you agree to the collection and use of information as described in this document.

1Introduction

W99 ("we", "Platform", or "w99") values the privacy of every member who uses our services. As an online sports betting and casino platform operating in Malaysia, we understand that your trust depends not only on a great gaming experience, but also on how we handle your personal information.

This Privacy Policy is prepared in accordance with the provisions of Malaysia's Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA 2010) and relevant international industry standards. We are committed to ensuring that all data you share with us is handled with the highest level of security and confidentiality.

This document explains the types of information we collect, why we need it, how we use it, and your rights as a data owner. We encourage you to read this document in full — it is brief, clear, and written to be easily understood by anyone.

2Information We Collect

We only collect information that is strictly necessary to provide, improve, and secure w99 services. There are two main categories of information we collect:

A. Information You Provide Directly

This information is collected when you register an account, update your profile, or contact our support team:

Information Type Example Primary Purpose
Identity Information Full name, identity card number, date of birth KYC verification & legal compliance
Contact Information Phone number, email address, residential address Account communications & transaction notifications
Financial Information Bank account number, account holder name, e-wallet Processing deposits & fund withdrawals
Supporting Documents ID card copy, bank statement Identity verification & fraud prevention

B. Information Collected Automatically

When you use the W99 platform, certain information is collected automatically to ensure security and enhance the user experience:

  • IP address and general geolocation data (state or region, not precise location)
  • Device type, operating system, and web browser version used
  • Log data such as access times, pages visited, and in-platform actions
  • Betting patterns and transaction history within the W99 platform
  • Cookie information and session identifiers for security and login convenience

3How We Use Your Data

Every piece of information we collect has a clear and legitimate purpose. w99 does not use your data for any purpose outside the scope stated below:

  • Identity Verification (KYC): To verify that you meet the minimum age requirement (18 years and above) and to prevent the use of false identities or account fraud.
  • Transaction Processing: To securely and accurately process deposits and withdrawals in accordance with the information you registered.
  • Account Security: To detect and prevent unauthorised access, fraud, or any suspicious activity on your account.
  • Service Communications: To send important notifications related to your account, transactions, policy changes, or security information you need to be aware of.
  • Platform Improvements: To understand overall usage patterns for the purpose of improving user experience, platform speed, and system stability.
  • Responsible Wagering: To monitor betting patterns and offer assistance or self-exclusion limits where needed, for your wellbeing.
  • Legal Compliance: To fulfil reporting obligations to the relevant authorities in compliance with applicable laws in Malaysia.
  • Marketing Communications: To send relevant promotional offers and bonuses — only to users who have given their consent to receive them.
Our Commitment: w99 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to any third party for their own marketing purposes. Your data belongs to you.

4Information Sharing

W99 understands the importance of keeping your data confidential. We only share your personal information in limited and legitimate circumstances as follows:

Trusted Service Providers

We work with selected third-party companies to help us operate the platform. These include payment processors, identity verification service providers, server infrastructure providers, and analytics companies. All third parties are required to sign strict confidentiality agreements and may only use your data for purposes we specify.

Authorities & Legal Requirements

W99 may be required to disclose certain information to authorities such as the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC), Bank Negara Malaysia, or other regulatory bodies if mandated by law, court order, or official investigation. We disclose only the minimum information necessary in such situations.

Rights & Security Protection

In cases involving serious fraud, security threats, or legal action, W99 reserves the right to share necessary information to protect the legitimate rights of the platform, other users, and the general public.

Important: w99 never sells or provides user data to advertisers, data brokers, or marketing companies without your explicit consent.

5Data Security

Protecting your data is more than a legal obligation for w99 — it is a responsibility we take seriously at every level of our operations. Below are the technical and organisational security measures we have implemented:

  • 256-bit SSL/TLS Encryption: All data transmitted between your device and w99 servers is encrypted using the highest industry-grade encryption protocols, rendering any interception attempt completely meaningless.
  • Layered Data Storage: Sensitive information such as passwords is stored in a non-reversible hashed format, while financial data is kept in a secure isolated environment.
  • Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): w99 provides a two-factor authentication option for an added layer of protection on your account. We encourage all members to enable this feature.
  • Continuous Security Monitoring: The w99 cybersecurity team monitors our systems 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to detect any threats or unusual activity.
  • Regular Security Audits: The w99 platform undergoes regular penetration testing and independent security audits to identify and address any system vulnerabilities.
  • Internal Access Control: Only W99 staff with specific authorisation may access user data, and every access is logged for auditing purposes.

While we take all reasonable steps to protect your data, no system can guarantee 100% absolute security. We encourage you to play your part by using a strong password, not sharing your login credentials, and reporting any suspicious activity to our support team promptly.

  • Transaction Records: Retained for a minimum of 7 years in compliance with anti-money laundering (AMLA) and tax legislation.

  • Communication Data: Emails and support conversation records are retained for 2 years for reference and quality control purposes.
  • Marketing Data: Deleted within 30 days of you withdrawing consent to receive marketing communications.

Once the retention period expires, your data will be securely deleted or anonymised in accordance with industry-standard procedures.

10Children & Privacy

W99 services are exclusively available to individuals aged 18 years and above. We do not intentionally collect or process personal data of minors. Should we discover that a child's data has been collected without our knowledge, such data will be deleted immediately and the associated account will be closed.

If you have reason to believe that someone under the age of 18 has registered an account on w99, please contact our support team immediately so that appropriate action can be taken.

11Changes to the Privacy Policy
