Updated: January 2026 Malay (Malaysia) Version 2.4

The Six Core Pillars of v98 Data Protection

Every aspect of data handling at v98 is built on the principles of security, transparency, and respect for user privacy. This is our promise to you.

High-Level Encryption

All data transmitted between your device and v98 servers is protected with 256-bit SSL encryption. This means your personal and financial information cannot be intercepted or read by unauthorised parties during transmission.

No Data Sales

V98 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to any third party for commercial purposes. Your data belongs to you and is used solely to improve your gaming experience on this platform.

Full User Control

You have the full right to access, amend, or request deletion of your personal data at any time. v98 provides a simple and transparent process for users to manage their own information.

Secure Data Storage

Player data is stored on servers protected by a multi-layered security system including firewalls, intrusion detection, and strict access controls. Only authorized personnel may access this data.

Regulatory Compliance

The v98 privacy policy is designed to comply with international data protection standards. We continuously update our practices whenever relevant regulations change to ensure the best protection for players.

Breach Notification

In the event of any security incident involving your data, v98 is committed to notifying you within a reasonable timeframe and taking immediate steps to minimise the impact on affected players.

1 Introduction

Welcome to the v98 Privacy Policy. This document transparently explains how the v98 platform handles your personal information from the moment you first browse our website to becoming an active member who plays every day.

V98 is an online gaming platform operating exclusively for the Malaysia market. We understand that user trust is our most valuable asset. That is why every data-related decision is made with care, putting players' interests above all else.

By registering an account or continuing to use the v98 platform, you agree to the terms set out in this privacy policy. If you do not agree with any part of this policy, you may choose not to use our platform. We fully respect that decision.

This privacy policy applies to all services provided through the v98 website, including the mobile app, live games, and all interactions with our customer support team.

2 Information Collected

V98 collects several categories of information from users depending on how you interact with our platform. We only collect information that is genuinely necessary to provide a safe and quality service.

Information you provide directly:

  • Full name, date of birth, and ID card number (for the KYC process)
  • Email address and phone number for communication and account verification
  • Residential address for identity verification purposes
  • Bank account and digital wallet details for processing deposits and withdrawals
  • Supporting documents such as a copy of your ID or bank statement when required

Data Minimisation Principle: v98 only collects information that is necessary for a specific purpose. We do not collect excessive or irrelevant data beyond the services we offer.

3 How We Use Your Data

The information we collect is used for clear and lawful purposes. v98 does not use user data for any purpose not stated here without first obtaining your additional consent.

  • Process account registration and verify player identity through the required KYC process
  • Process deposits, withdrawals, and all financial transactions securely and promptly

V98 uses analytics data in aggregate form (i.e., without identifying individuals) to understand platform usage trends and make better business decisions. This data is never used to evaluate or discriminate against individual users.

If you no longer wish to receive promotional emails from v98, you can unsubscribe at any time via the link provided at the bottom of every email sent to you.

4 Information Sharing

V98 does not sell your personal data to anyone. This is a non-negotiable commitment. However, there are limited situations where we need to share certain information with trusted third parties to keep our services running smoothly:

  • Payment providers: DuitNow, FPX, Touch 'n Go eWallet, Boost, and GrabPay receive the transaction information needed to process your deposits and withdrawals
  • Game providers: Game development companies receive only the minimum session data required to run games properly
  • Analytics services: Third-party analytics platforms receive anonymised behavioural data to help us understand how users interact with the platform
  • Authorities: We will disclose information to the relevant authorities when required by law or a valid court order.
  • Identity verification services: Approved KYC providers receive identity verification documents to help us verify new accounts

All third parties working with v98 are required to comply with strict data security standards and may only use shared information for agreed purposes. We periodically review our third-party agreements to ensure ongoing compliance.

5 Cookies & Tracking Technologies

6 Data Security

Player data security is one of v98's greatest investments. We implement multiple layers of technical and organisational protection to ensure your information is always safe from unauthorised access, loss, or misuse.

  • 256-bit SSL encryption for all data transmitted between the server and user devices
  • Encryption of sensitive data stored in the database using the latest encryption algorithms
