Privacy Policy winow44 – Player Personal Data Protection in Malaysia

1 Introduction and Scope of This Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how winow44 ("we", "the platform" or "winow44") collects, uses, stores, discloses, and protects the personal information you provide or that we collect when you use our platform — whether through the website at winow44.net, the mobile app, or any other service channel we operate.

This policy applies to all registered members, users browsing the platform without an account, and any individual who interacts with our customer support team. By using the winow44 platform, you confirm that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy.

2 Types of Personal Data We Collect

Winow44 collects two main categories of data: information you provide directly to us, and data we collect automatically during your use of the platform.

Data You Provide Directly:

• Account registration details: full name, date of birth, email address, and phone number.
• Identity verification documents submitted during the KYC process — such as a national ID, passport, or driver's licence.
• Bank account or e-wallet details for deposit and withdrawal purposes.
• Communications you send to our customer support team.
• Feedback, reviews, or content you post within the platform.

Data Collected Automatically:

• Technical data: IP address, device type, operating system, browser version, and screen resolution.
• Log data: login times, game activity, wagering amounts, session duration, and transaction history.
• Cookie and tracking technology data that helps us personalize your experience.
• Approximate location data based on your IP address for security and compliance purposes.

3 How We Use Your Data

Winow44 uses the data collected for the following purposes:

• Service Provision: Processing account registration, deposits, withdrawals, and managing all aspects of your platform usage.
• Identity Verification (KYC): Ensuring all members meet the minimum age requirement and verifying identity before processing significant financial transactions.
• Security and Fraud Prevention: Monitoring account activity to detect and prevent any unauthorized access, fraud, or misuse of the platform.
• Legal Compliance: Meeting the reporting and compliance obligations required by applicable laws, including anti-money laundering requirements.
• Product Improvement: Analyzing aggregated usage patterns to improve the platform's interface, performance, and features.
• Marketing Communications: Sending information about promotions, bonuses, and special offers — but only to those who have agreed to receive such communications.

4 Data Sharing and Disclosure

Winow44 does not sell, rent, or commercialise your personal data to any third party. However, there are limited situations where we may need to share your data:

Third-Party Service Providers: We share necessary data with the service providers we use to operate the platform — such as payment processors, cloud service providers, and identity verification systems. All third parties are bound by confidentiality agreements and may only use data for the specific purposes outlined.

Legal Requirements: winow44 will disclose data to regulatory authorities, law enforcement, or courts when required to do so by applicable law, court order, or directive from a competent authority.

Business Transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of business assets, member data may be transferred as part of that transaction. You will be notified before any such transfer takes place.

5 Data Security — Multi-Layer Protection

Winow44 implements comprehensive technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data from unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.

Key security measures we use include:

• 256-bit SSL/TLS Encryption for all data in transit between your device and our servers.
• Data-at-rest encryption for all sensitive data stored in our databases.
• Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) available to all member accounts and mandatory for internal staff.
• Continuous Security Monitoring 24/7 to detect and respond to threats in real time.
• Regular security audits by accredited independent parties to assess and improve the platform's security posture.
• Role-based access control ensuring that only authorized personnel can access data relevant to their responsibilities.

While we take every reasonable precaution, no security system can be guaranteed 100% secure. We encourage you to also help protect your account by using a strong password and enabling two-factor authentication.

6 Data Retention Period

Winow44 retains your personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes stated in this Privacy Policy, or as required by applicable law.

In general, data retention periods are as follows:

• Active account data: Retained for the duration of your active account and for 7 years after account closure for legal compliance purposes.
• KYC Documents: Retained for a minimum of 5 years from the date of submission, in accordance with anti-money laundering legislation.
• Financial transaction records: Retained for 7 years in accordance with applicable accounting and tax requirements.
• Security and audit logs: Retained for 2 years for security incident investigation purposes.
• Marketing data: Retained until you withdraw consent or request deletion.

When data is no longer required, we will securely delete or anonymize it in accordance with established procedures.
