Welcom88 takes every piece of information you entrust to us seriously. This document clearly explains what we collect, why we collect it, and how we protect it.
The core principles that shape how Welcom88 handles and protects your personal data.
Welcom88 only collects data that is genuinely necessary to provide our services. We do not collect excessive or irrelevant data beyond the stated purposes — a privacy by design principle we have upheld from the outset.
All data stored and transmitted through the Welcom88 platform is protected with 256-bit SSL encryption. Our server infrastructure employs a multi-layered security system with strict access controls and real-time monitoring around the clock.
Welcom88 has never and will never sell, rent, or share members' personal data with any third party for marketing or any other purpose without the explicit consent of the member concerned. This is a commitment we will not compromise on.
We are transparent about what data we collect, why we collect it, and how long we keep it. No hidden terms, no silent data collection. You have the right to know, and we are committed to explaining this clearly to every Welcom88 member.
As a Welcom88 member, you have the right to access your personal data, request corrections, request restrictions on processing, or request deletion of your data under certain circumstances. All such requests are handled with full respect and within a reasonable timeframe.
Welcom88's Privacy Policy fully complies with Malaysia's Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA) and its associated regulations. We continuously update our privacy practices to stay aligned with the latest legal developments in Malaysia.
When you register with Welcom88, you entrust us with more than just your money — you also share sensitive personal information such as your name, phone number, email address, and payment account details. We understand the weight of that trust and take the responsibility that comes with it seriously.
In today's digital age, personal data is incredibly valuable. Some platforms treat user data as an additional revenue stream by selling it to advertisers or third parties. Welcom88 does not operate that way. Our business model is straightforward – we provide a high-quality entertainment platform and generate revenue from gaming activity on the platform. Your data is not part of our revenue equation.
This Privacy Policy is written in plain, easy-to-understand language so that every Malaysian Welcom88 member can read and genuinely understand how their data is handled — rather than simply nodding along to a dense legal document without knowing what it actually says.
This Privacy Policy explains how Welcom88 collects, uses, stores, and protects members' personal data. By registering for or using the Welcom88 platform, you agree to the practices described in this document. Please read it carefully.
Welcom88 collects various types of personal data in the course of providing its online entertainment platform services to members. This data is collected through several means – directly from you during registration and platform use, as well as automatically through technologies used in the operation of the platform.
Data you provide directly to Welcom88:
Data collected automatically when you use the Welcom88 platform:
Welcom88 does not collect credit card or debit card information directly. All payments are processed through licensed third-party payment processors that comply with PCI-DSS security standards.
Welcom88 uses your personal data only for legitimate, clearly stated purposes. We do not use your data for anything beyond the scope described here without obtaining your separate consent.

Welcom88 will not use your personal data for any purpose not listed above without first notifying you and, where required, obtaining your consent. If you do not wish to receive promotional communications from Welcom88, you may withdraw that consent at any time by contacting our support team or using the unsubscribe link included in any promotional email.
The security of members' personal data is Welcom88's top technical priority. We continuously invest in security infrastructure to keep your data safe against increasingly sophisticated cyber threats.
Technical security measures we employ:
While Welcom88 employs best-in-class security measures, no system can be guaranteed 100% secure against all cyber threats. We encourage members to practise good security hygiene as well — use a strong password, enable two-factor authentication (2FA), and never share your login credentials with anyone.
Welcom88 does not sell or rent members' personal data to any third party. This is an unwavering policy. However, in the normal course of platform operations, there are specific situations where Welcom88 needs to share personal data with certain parties — and this is done within a limited and controlled scope.
Parties that may receive your personal data within a limited scope:
In all of the above cases, Welcom88 ensures that only the minimum necessary data is shared, and that recipients are bound by appropriate confidentiality and data protection obligations.
Welcom88 uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance user experience, maintain session security, and understand how members use our platform. Below is an explanation of the types of cookies we use:
You can manage and control cookie settings through your browser settings. Please note, however, that disabling essential cookies may affect the functionality and security of the Welcom88 platform. For guidance on managing cookies in your browser, please refer to your browser's help documentation.
Welcom88 does not use third-party advertising cookies or cross-site tracking technologies. Your behavioural data on the Welcom88 platform is not shared with any advertising network.
As the Welcom88 platform involves real financial transactions in MYR, the privacy of members' financial information receives the highest level of attention and protection across all our operations.
When you make a deposit or withdrawal via Touch 'n Go eWallet, GrabPay, Boost, ShopeePay, DuitNow QR, or FPX internet banking (Maybank2u, CIMB Clicks), the payment process takes place directly between you and the respective payment provider through a secure channel. Welcom88 does not store your PIN, password, or any e-wallet or internet banking authentication credentials.
Financial transaction records retained by Welcom88 include:
These transaction records are required for legal compliance, dispute resolution, and customer support purposes. All financial records are protected to the same security standards as other personal data – full encryption, strict access controls, and regular audits.
Under Malaysia's Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA) and Welcom88's own policies, you as a member have the following rights regarding your personal data:
You have the right to request a copy of your personal data held by Welcom88 at any time. We will respond within 21 business days of receiving your request.
If you find that personal data held by Welcom88 is inaccurate or out of date, you have the right to request a correction promptly. We will update our records within 14 days.
Under certain circumstances, you have the right to request the deletion of your personal data from Welcom88's systems. Such requests will be processed subject to any legal obligations that may require us to retain certain data.
You have the right to request that Welcom88 restrict the processing of your personal data in certain situations — for example, while you are disputing the accuracy of the data or while a complaint investigation is ongoing.
You have the right to object to the processing of your personal data for certain purposes, such as direct marketing communications. This right may be exercised at any time by contacting the Welcom88 support team.
You have the right to request your personal data that you provided to Welcom88 in a machine-readable format, for transfer to another service provider should you choose to do so.
Welcom88 does not retain your personal data longer than necessary for the stated purposes. Different retention periods apply to different data types based on legal and operational requirements:
When data is no longer needed and there is no legal obligation to retain it, Welcom88 will securely delete or anonymise it using industry-standard secure deletion methods.
The Welcom88 platform is intended exclusively for users aged 18 and above. We do not knowingly collect any personal data from individuals under the age of 18. All registration processes on Welcom88 require age verification, and any account suspected of belonging to an underage user will be suspended immediately while a review is conducted.
If you are a parent or guardian who believes your child under the age of 18 has registered or attempted to register an account on Welcom88, please contact us immediately at support@welcom88.com. We will take prompt action to investigate and, if confirmed, close the account and delete all associated data without delay.
Welcom88 takes child protection seriously. Registration or use of the platform by individuals under the age of 18 is a serious violation that may result in legal action against the responsible party.
Welcom88 may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our privacy practices, service updates, or changes in applicable legal requirements. When significant changes occur, Welcom88 will:
It is your responsibility to review this Privacy Policy page periodically to stay informed of any changes made. Continued use of the Welcom88 platform after changes take effect will be considered acceptance of the updated Privacy Policy, unless you have expressly withdrawn your consent.
If you have any questions or concerns, or wish to exercise any of your privacy rights as outlined in Section 7 of this document, please reach out to the Welcom88 Privacy Team through the following channels:
Welcom88 is committed to responding to all data privacy enquiries within 21 working days from the date the request is received. For more complex requests requiring a deeper review, additional time may be needed, and we will keep you informed of the expected timeframe.
When submitting a data privacy request, you may be asked to verify your identity to ensure we are processing the request for the right person and protecting your privacy from unauthorised parties.
This Privacy Policy is governed by Malaysian law, specifically the Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA). Any dispute relating to personal data processing that cannot be resolved directly with Welcom88 may be referred to the Department of Personal Data Protection Malaysia.
For many Malaysian players on online entertainment platforms, privacy is often a quiet concern — something they worry about but aren't quite sure how to ask or where to check. We get that, which is why we've written this Welcom88 Privacy Policy in plain, straightforward language rather than lengthy, confusing legal jargon.
The question we hear most from new members is — "Is my information safe with Welcom88?" The short answer: yes, and here's why. Welcom88 uses 256-bit SSL encryption across all data communications. This means every time you log in, make a deposit via Touch 'n Go eWallet or GrabPay, or withdraw via DuitNow, all data travelling between your device and our servers is fully encrypted. That's the same level of encryption used by Malaysia's major banks, including Maybank and CIMB.
The second question we often hear is – "Will Welcom88 sell my data to advertisers?" The answer is no, and we state this clearly in this Privacy Policy. Welcom88's business model is built on providing a quality gaming platform – not on selling user data. Every ringgit Welcom88 earns comes from gaming activity on the platform, not from selling information about who you are to third parties.
We also want you to understand your rights. Under Malaysia's Personal Data Protection Act 2010, you have the right to access your personal data, request a correction if anything is inaccurate, and in certain circumstances, request that we delete your data. These are not merely rights on paper — we have a clear process to help you exercise them when needed. Simply contact us at support@welcom88.com or via the in-platform live chat.
One thing we want to make clear to members who use Malaysian e-wallets for deposits and withdrawals at Welcom88 — we do not store sensitive details from your e-wallet account, such as your PIN or password. When you make a deposit via Touch 'n Go or GrabPay, the transaction takes place within your own e-wallet app, not on the Welcom88 platform. All we record is the fact that a transaction occurred, the amount, and its status — the same information you would see in your own e-wallet transaction history.
We also want to be clear that Welcom88 fully respects your communication preferences. If you do not wish to receive promotional emails about bonuses, the latest offers, or tournaments we run, you can unsubscribe at any time — either via the unsubscribe link in the email or by informing our support team. Choosing not to receive promotional emails will not affect your account or the service you receive from Welcom88 in any way.
