1 Introduction & Scope of the Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy ("Policy") describes how sport008 collects, uses, discloses, stores and protects the personal information you share with us when using the sport008 platform, whether through our website or mobile application.

Sport008 understands that Malaysians today are increasingly mindful of their personal data privacy. We do not take your trust for granted. Every decision we make about how data is handled comes down to one simple question: is this a reasonable and fair way to treat information that has been entrusted to us? If the answer is no, we don't do it.

This policy applies to all registered sport008 members, visitors to sport008.com, users of the sport008 mobile app, and anyone who interacts with our platform in any capacity. By registering an account or continuing to use sport008's services, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy.

This Privacy Policy should be read together with: Terms & Conditions and page Responsible Gaming sport008. Together, these documents form the complete agreement between you and sport008 regarding your use of the platform and the handling of your personal data.

2 Personal Information We Collect

Sport008 only collects information that is genuinely necessary to provide the services you request. We do not collect data in excess of what is needed. Below are the categories of information we collect and how they are collected.

Information You Provide Directly

  • During registration: Username, Malaysian phone number, encrypted password, date of birth and state of residence in Malaysia.
  • During identity verification: A digital copy of your Malaysian identity card (MyKad) or relevant document may be requested for age verification or high-value withdrawal processing. sport008 only requests these documents when genuinely necessary.
  • When contacting support: Any information you share through live chat sessions, emails to support@sport008.com or feedback forms.
  • During profile updates: Additional information you choose to add to your sport008 account profile, such as game preferences or e-wallet details for withdrawals.

Automatically Collected Information

  • Technical data: IP address, browser type and version, operating system, screen resolution, time zone and the language of the device you use to access sport008.
  • Gaming data: Sports betting history (football, cricket), poker game history, lottery purchase history, live casino sessions, slots gameplay and all other activity related to your use of the sport008 platform.
  • Transaction data: Records of all deposits and withdrawals in MYR via Touch 'n Go eWallet, GrabPay, Boost, ShopeePay, DuitNow, FPX through Maybank2u and CIMB Clicks — including timestamp, amount and payment method.
  • Activity logs: Login and logout timestamps, pages visited within the platform, features used, and time spent per session.

Important Note: sport008 does not store your full credit or debit card number. All payments are processed through approved third-party payment providers that comply with international payment security standards. sport008 only receives payment confirmation, not your actual card details.

3 How We Use Your Personal Information

Sport008 uses your personal information only for legitimate and necessary purposes. We do not use your data in ways you would not reasonably expect or that are not stated in this policy.

  • Account setup and management: To create and manage your sport008 account, verify your identity, process deposits and withdrawals in MYR, and provide access to all platform services including Sports Betting, poker, lottery and casino.
  • Security and fraud prevention: To detect, investigate and prevent fraudulent activity, collusion, multi-account usage, money laundering and any breach of sport008's Terms & Conditions. This includes monitoring unusual betting patterns and account access logs.
  • Customer support: This allows sport008's Malay-speaking support team to assist you effectively and efficiently with any enquiries, technical issues or complaints.
  • Responsible Gaming: To monitor gameplay patterns that may indicate signs of problem gambling and to reach out to members with appropriate information and support resources when necessary.
  • Relevant marketing (with consent): To send you relevant sport008 promotional information via email or in-platform notifications, subject to your communication preferences. You may withdraw this consent at any time in your account settings.
  • Platform improvements: To analyse aggregated and anonymised usage data in order to understand how members use sport008 and to inform better product improvement decisions.
  • Legal compliance: To comply with the legal and regulatory obligations applicable to sport008's operations, including anti-money laundering requirements and mandated transaction reporting.

Sport008 does not make any automated decisions that significantly affect you based solely on automated data processing without human review, except in the context of security and fraud prevention where automated actions such as temporary blocking may be necessary to protect the integrity of the platform.

4 Sharing Data with Third Parties

Sport008 does not sell your personal information. We only share data in the limited circumstances described below and only with parties that have equivalent data protection obligations.

  • Approved payment providers: To process deposits and withdrawals in MYR, the minimum transaction data required is shared with payment providers such as Touch 'n Go, GrabPay, Boost, ShopeePay, DuitNow and FPX banks including Maybank2u and CIMB Clicks. These providers maintain their own privacy and security policies and comply with payment industry standards.
  • Technology service providers: sport008 works with trusted third-party service providers for functions such as web hosting, email services, platform analytics and technical support. All such providers are bound by strict data processing agreements and are not permitted to use your data for any other purpose.
  • Authorities and regulatory bodies: sport008 will disclose required information to Malaysian authorities when mandated by law, court order or valid regulation, including financial crime investigations and anti-money laundering legal requirements.
  • Business transfer: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or transfer of sport008 assets, user information may be transferred to the acquiring entity, subject to the same confidentiality obligations and notification to members.

⚠ Warning: sport008 will never ask you to share your account password via email, live chat or any other channel. If you receive such a request claiming to be from sport008, do not comply — contact our support team immediately as it may be a phishing attempt.

5 sport008 Data Security Measures

Sport008 continually invests in robust security infrastructure to protect every member's personal data. Below are the key technical and organisational measures we have in place.

  • Encryption in transit: All communications between your device and sport008's servers are encrypted using TLS 1.3 with a 256-bit SSL certificate. This ensures your data cannot be intercepted during transmission over the internet.
  • Storage encryption: Sensitive data stored in sport008's databases — including passwords and identity verification information — is encrypted using robust industry-standard encryption algorithms. Passwords are stored as one-way hashes and cannot be decrypted, even by sport008 staff.
  • Internal access controls: Access to user data within the sport008 system is restricted to staff who require it to perform their duties. All access is logged, monitored and reviewed on a regular basis.
  • Regular security audits: sport008 conducts regular penetration testing and security audits by independent third parties to identify and address security vulnerabilities before they can be exploited.
  • Incident response plan: sport008 has a clear security incident response procedure in place. In the event of a data breach that could affect the rights and freedoms of members, we are committed to notifying affected members within a reasonable timeframe.
  • 24/7 Monitoring: sport008's security systems continuously monitor our infrastructure to detect suspicious activity, intrusion attempts and anomalies that may indicate a security threat.
While sport008 takes all reasonable steps to protect your data, no security system can be guaranteed 100% foolproof. We also encourage you to take precautions on your end — use a strong, unique password for your sport008 account, enable two-factor authentication, and never share your login credentials with anyone.
6 Data Retention Period

Sport008 does not retain your personal data for longer than is necessary for the stated purposes or as required by law. Our retention policy is as follows.

FAQ – sport008 Privacy Policy

The most frequently asked questions from Malaysian members about data privacy at sport008

No. sport008 does not sell, rent or share members' personal information with advertisers or any third party for third-party marketing purposes. Your data is collected solely for the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy — namely to provide platform services, process transactions, ensure security and fulfil legal obligations. The only marketing communications you may receive are from sport008 itself regarding platform promotions and exclusive offers, and only where you have given your consent to do so — which you may withdraw at any time.

sport008 does not store your full bank card or e-wallet account details in our systems. All payment transactions are processed through approved, secure third-party payment gateways — including Touch 'n Go eWallet, GrabPay, Boost, ShopeePay, DuitNow and FPX via Maybank2u or CIMB Clicks. These payment providers comply with the highest level of PCI DSS security standards. sport008 only receives confirmation that a payment was successful — we do not see or store your card or account numbers. This means that even in the event of a security incident on sport008's end, your payment details remain uncompromised.

Yes, you have the right to request the deletion of your personal data from sport008's systems. However, please note that certain categories of data are required by law to be retained for a specified period even upon request — in particular, financial transaction records necessary for compliance with Malaysia's anti-money laundering and accounting laws, which typically carry a minimum retention period of 7 years. Data not subject to any legal retention requirement may be fully deleted. To submit a data deletion request, contact us by email at support@sport008.com with the subject line "Data Deletion Request" and include your account username. We will process the request within 14 business days and inform you of what can and cannot be deleted, along with the reasons.

Yes, sport008 monitors the gaming activity of all members, but for legitimate purposes that protect your interests. First, monitoring is essential for platform security — our systems detect suspicious betting patterns that may indicate collusion, bot usage, or fraud, ensuring fair play for all members. Second, monitoring supports our Responsible Gaming commitment — if your gaming patterns show signs of a potential gambling problem, such as a sudden spike in deposits or consistently very long play sessions, our team may reach out to check that you are doing well and to offer available self-control tools. Third, aggregated (anonymised) gaming data is used to help us understand which products Malaysian members enjoy most and to drive platform improvements. We do not use individual gaming data to make unfair decisions against you or to manipulate game outcomes in any way.

When you close your sport008 account, we will initiate the process of deleting and archiving your data. Data not subject to legal retention requirements will be deleted within 30 days of account closure. Data subject to legal requirements — particularly financial transaction records — will be securely archived and accessible only for legal compliance, enforcement investigations, or dispute resolution purposes. You will not receive any marketing communications from sport008 after your account is closed. If you close your account and later decide to re-register within 12 months, we may be able to restore some of your profile data for your convenience, subject to your consent at the time of re-registration.
