Data Protection & Privacy
Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how Trust88 collects, uses, stores, and protects your personal data when you use our online casino and sports betting platform. We are committed to handling your information responsibly, transparently, and in accordance with applicable data protection principles.
Section 01
Introduction
Trust88 ("the Company", "we", "us", "our") operates the online casino and sports betting platform accessible at trust88.cam. This Privacy Policy ("Policy") describes in detail how we collect, receive, use, store, share, transfer, and otherwise process personal data belonging to users ("you", "the User", "the Player") who register an account, visit the platform, or interact with our services in any way.
Trust88 is an English-language platform primarily serving players based in Malaysia. We take the privacy and security of your personal information seriously. This Policy is intended to be transparent, accessible, and written in plain English — so that every player on the platform, whether based in Kuala Lumpur, Petaling Jaya, Penang, Johor Bahru, or elsewhere in Malaysia, can understand exactly how their data is handled.
By registering an account, making a deposit, accepting a bonus, or otherwise accessing the trust88 platform in any capacity, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy and consent to the collection and processing of your personal data as described herein. If you do not consent, you should not create an account or use the platform.
Key Principle: Trust88 will never sell your personal data to third parties. We collect only the data necessary to operate our services, comply with legal obligations, and improve your experience on the platform.
Section 02

- Legal Obligation: Processing required for compliance with applicable legal and regulatory obligations, including KYC, AML, CTF, and responsible gambling requirements.

- Consent: Processing based on your freely given, specific, and informed consent — such as receiving direct marketing communications. Where consent is the legal basis, you may withdraw it at any time without penalty, though this will not affect the lawfulness of processing conducted prior to withdrawal.
Section 06
Data Sharing & Disclosure
Trust88 does not sell, trade, or rent your personal data to third parties. However, we do share personal data with carefully selected third parties in the following limited circumstances:
6.1 Service Providers (Data Processors)
We engage third-party service providers who process personal data on our behalf under written data processing agreements. These include payment processing providers (for e-wallet, bank transfer, and cryptocurrency transaction processing), identity verification and KYC service providers, cloud hosting and infrastructure providers, customer support platform operators, and analytics and fraud detection tools. All processors are contractually bound to process data only on Trust88's documented instructions and to implement appropriate security measures.
6.2 Legal and Regulatory Disclosures
We may disclose personal data to law enforcement agencies, regulatory bodies, courts, or other authorities where required or permitted to do so by applicable law — for example, in response to a valid court order, a regulatory investigation, or in connection with the detection, investigation, or prosecution of financial crime.
6.3 Corporate Transactions
In the event of a merger, acquisition, restructuring, or sale of all or part of Trust88's business, your personal data may be disclosed or transferred to the acquiring entity as part of that transaction. We will provide notice of any such transfer that materially affects your data rights before it takes effect.
6.4 No Sale of Data
Trust88 will never sell, licence, or otherwise commercially transfer your personal data to unrelated third parties for their own marketing or commercial purposes. This commitment is absolute and unconditional.
Important: When data is shared with third-party processors, we require them to maintain security standards equivalent to or greater than our own, and to use your data solely for the purpose for which it was shared.
Section 07
Cookies & Tracking
Trust88 uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to ensure the platform functions correctly, personalise your experience, and gather analytics data to improve our services. The types of cookies we use are:
| Cookie Type | Purpose | Retention |
|---|---|---|
| Essential / Session | Required for the platform to function — maintaining your logged-in session, preserving your game state, and enabling secure transactions. | Session only |
| Functional / Preference | Remembering your language preference, currency display setting (MYR), and other personalisation choices. | Up to 12 months |
| Analytics | Collecting anonymised, aggregated data about how users navigate the platform — pages visited, session duration, click patterns — to help us improve the user experience. | Up to 24 months |
| Security | Detecting and preventing fraudulent activity, bot access, and account takeover attempts. | Up to 12 months |
Essential cookies cannot be disabled as they are necessary for the platform to operate. You may manage your preferences for non-essential cookies through your browser settings. Please note that disabling functional cookies may affect your experience on the platform — for example, your currency preference may not be retained between sessions.
Section 08
Data Retention
Trust88 retains personal data for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, including satisfying any applicable legal, regulatory, accounting, or reporting obligations. The following general retention principles apply:
- Active Account Data: Retained for the lifetime of your account and for a period of five (5) years following permanent account closure.
- KYC and Identity Documents: Retained for a minimum of five (5) years following the end of the business relationship, in compliance with applicable anti-money laundering regulations.
- Financial Transaction Records: Retained for a minimum of five (5) years from the date of each transaction.
- Customer Support Records: Retained for three (3) years from the date of the last interaction, unless a longer period is required for an open dispute or regulatory matter.
- Marketing Preferences: Retained until you withdraw consent or request deletion, subject to retention obligations that may override deletion.
After the applicable retention period expires, personal data is securely and irreversibly deleted or anonymised in accordance with our internal data disposal procedures.
Section 09
Data Security
Trust88 implements comprehensive technical and organisational security measures designed to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. Key security measures include:
- Transport Encryption: All data transmitted between your device and the trust88 platform is encrypted using TLS (Transport Layer Security) with a minimum of 256-bit encryption. You can verify this by checking for the HTTPS padlock in your browser's address bar.
- At-Rest Encryption: Personal data stored on Trust88's servers is encrypted at rest using industry-standard algorithms.
- Access Controls: Access to personal data within Trust88's systems is restricted to authorised personnel on a strict need-to-know basis, enforced through role-based access controls and multi-factor authentication.
- Password Security: User passwords are stored as one-way cryptographic hashes — Trust88 staff cannot view your password in plain text.
- Fraud Monitoring: Automated systems run continuous checks for anomalous account activity, unauthorised access attempts, and suspicious transaction patterns.
- Regular Security Reviews: Our security infrastructure is subject to periodic internal review and assessment.
Your Responsibility: While Trust88 implements robust security measures on our end, you also play a role in keeping your account secure. Use a strong, unique password, do not share your login credentials, and contact support immediately if you suspect any unauthorised activity on your account. Support is available daily, 9:00 AM – 1:00 AM Malaysian Standard Time (UTC+8).
In the event of a personal data breach that is likely to result in a high risk to your rights and freedoms, Trust88 will notify affected users without undue delay and will take all reasonable steps to mitigate the impact of the breach.
Section 10

Right to Data Portability
Where processing is based on consent or contract, you have the right to receive your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format.

In complex cases, we may extend this period by a further 30 days, in which case we will notify you of the extension and the reason for the delay.
Verification Requirement: For the protection of all users, we may need to verify your identity before fulfilling a data subject request. This is to prevent unauthorised access to another person's data. Requests that cannot be verified may not be fulfilled.
Section 11
Third-Party Services
The trust88 platform integrates certain third-party services required for its operation. These include game content providers, live dealer stream providers, payment gateway operators, and customer support tools. Each of these third parties may process personal data in connection with the service they provide to Trust88.
All third-party service providers engaged by Trust88 are required to maintain data protection standards consistent with applicable law and to process your data solely for the purpose of providing their contracted service. We do not permit third-party processors to use your data for their own independent purposes.
The trust88 platform does not contain links to external third-party websites for general browsing purposes. Our navigation is confined to internal platform pages. If you navigate away from trust88 independently, this Privacy Policy does not apply to any data collected by third-party sites, and we accept no responsibility for their privacy practices.
Section 12
Minors & Age Policy
The trust88 platform is strictly for individuals aged 21 years and above. We do not knowingly collect, process, or retain personal data belonging to any person under the age of 21.
If Trust88 becomes aware that personal data has been collected from or in relation to a person under the age of 21, we will take immediate steps to delete that data, close the associated account, and where legally required, report the matter to relevant authorities.
If you are a parent or guardian and believe that a person under the age of 21 for whom you are responsible has registered an account on trust88, please contact us immediately using the details in Section 15 so that we can investigate and act accordingly.
Age Verification: Trust88 enforces age verification through mandatory KYC procedures. All accounts are subject to identity and age verification before withdrawal of funds. Accounts confirmed to belong to persons under 21 will be permanently closed.
Section 13
International Data Transfers
In the course of operating our platform and engaging third-party service providers, your personal data may be transferred to, and processed in, countries other than Malaysia. Such transfers may occur in connection with cloud hosting infrastructure, payment processing, KYC verification services, or customer support tools operated by our processors.
Where personal data is transferred outside of Malaysia, Trust88 takes steps to ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your data, including requiring that recipient organisations implement data protection standards equivalent to those applied by Trust88 under this Policy. These safeguards may include contractual clauses, binding corporate rules, or reliance on applicable adequacy determinations.
By using the trust88 platform, you acknowledge and consent to your personal data being transferred and processed outside of Malaysia in the circumstances described above.
Section 14
Policy Amendments
Trust88 reserves the right to update or modify this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in our data processing activities, applicable law, or regulatory guidance. The current version of this Policy is always published at trust88.cam/privacy-policy, with the "Last Reviewed" date updated to reflect the most recent revision.
Where changes are material — meaning they significantly affect how we process your personal data or your rights in relation to it — we will notify registered players by email to the address on file, or via a prominent notice on the platform, no less than seven (7) days before the changes take effect.
Your continued use of the trust88 platform after the effective date of any revised Privacy Policy constitutes your acceptance of the updated terms. If you do not agree with any revision, you should cease using the platform and request account closure in accordance with our Terms & Conditions.
