At Matahari88, your privacy is something we take seriously. This page clearly explains how we collect, use, store, and protect your personal data — all in accordance with Malaysia's Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA) and industry-best security practices.
Important: By registering and using the Matahari88 platform, you consent to the collection and use of your personal data in accordance with this Privacy Policy. Please read this document in full before registering. If you have any questions, contact us via support@matahari88.biz.
This is not just a promise on paper — it is how we operate every day to keep your data protected.
Matahari88 fully complies with Malaysia's Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA) across all aspects of member data collection, storage, and processing. This means your data is managed in accordance with Malaysian law governing personal data protection.
All communications between your device and Matahari88's servers are protected by 256-bit SSL encryption — the same standard used by Malaysia's leading banking institutions such as Maybank and CIMB. Your data cannot be intercepted or read by unauthorised parties.
Matahari88 never sells, rents or shares your personal data with advertising companies, data brokers or any third party for marketing purposes. Your data is used solely for platform operational purposes as stated in this policy.
As a Matahari88 member, you have the full right to access the personal data we hold about you, request corrections to any inaccurate data, and in certain circumstances request the deletion of your data. Requests can be submitted via our support email.
Matahari88 clearly states the purpose for each type of data we collect. We do not collect data beyond what is necessary, and we do not use data for any purpose other than those explicitly stated in this Privacy Policy without first obtaining your consent.
In the event of a security breach involving your personal data, Matahari88 is committed to notifying affected members within the timeframe prescribed by Malaysian law and taking immediate steps to mitigate the impact.
This Privacy Policy ("Policy") describes how matahari88, operating through the domain matahari88.biz, collect, use, disclose and protect the personal information of our platform users. This policy applies to all Malaysian players who register, browse or use any service offered by Matahari88.
We are committed to managing your personal data responsibly and transparently, in accordance with Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA) Malaysia. This means you as a data subject have certain rights over your personal information, and we are obligated to respect those rights.
By using the Matahari88 platform — including the website, mobile app and all related services — you confirm that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy and agree to how we handle your personal data as described herein.
This Privacy Policy was last updated on 1 January 2026. Members will be notified of any material changes via in-platform notifications or email at least 7 days before the changes take effect.
Matahari88 collects several categories of personal data to ensure the platform operates securely and efficiently. Below are the types of data we collect along with their purposes:
Full name, date of birth, MyKad number, gender and nationality — collected during registration and KYC verification.
Email address, mobile number, and (optionally) residential address — for account communications and verification.
Payment method details (eWallet, FPX), deposit and withdrawal records in RM — for secure transaction processing.
Betting history, game logs, accumulated VIP points and win/loss records — used for platform operations and the VIP programme.
IP address, device type, web browser, operating system and access log data — used for platform security and fraud detection.
Pages visited, time spent on the platform, clicks and navigation — used to improve the Matahari88 user experience.
Matahari88 does not collect data beyond what is required for the stated purposes. We do not request sensitive information such as your banking password, OTP or eWallet PIN at any time — if anyone claims to be a Matahari88 representative and asks for such information, please report it to us immediately.
Matahari88 collects your personal data through several means, all within the context of your use of our platform:
All data collection is carried out lawfully — whether based on the consent you provide at registration, the contractual necessity of delivering the services you request, or Matahari88's legitimate interests in operating a secure and compliant platform.
Matahari88 uses your personal data solely for legitimate purposes directly related to platform operations. We do not use your data for any other purpose without first obtaining your consent. The primary purposes for using your data are:
Direct Marketing: Matahari88 may send you marketing communications about promotions and new offers. You can opt out of these communications at any time by contacting our support team or using the unsubscribe link included in every marketing email.
Matahari88 takes our obligation to protect your personal data seriously and will not disclose it without legitimate grounds. We does not sell your personal data to any third party for marketing purposes. However, there are specific circumstances where we may need to share your data with selected third parties:
All third parties that receive personal data from Matahari88 are bound by confidentiality agreements that prohibit them from using such data for any purpose beyond what has been agreed upon. We ensure that all our partners adhere to data protection standards equal to or higher than those of Matahari88.
matahari88 does not share your personal data with marketing agents, data brokers, advertising companies or any other party for commercial purposes unrelated to the services we provide to you.
Matahari88 implements a range of technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data from unauthorised access, loss, alteration or accidental disclosure. The key security measures we have in place include:
While we take all reasonable steps to protect your data, no security system can guarantee 100% protection. We encourage you to play your part in keeping your account secure — by using a strong and unique password, not sharing your login credentials, and contacting us immediately if you suspect your account has been compromised.
Matahari88 retains your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected or to comply with applicable legal and regulatory requirements. Our data retention policy is as follows:
Once the relevant retention period has ended, your personal data will be securely deleted or permanently anonymised. Anonymised data cannot be used to identify you and may be retained for statistical and analytical purposes that do not identify any individual.
Under Malaysia's Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA), you as a data subject have several important rights regarding your personal data held by Matahari88. These rights are as follows:

| Right to Erasure | Under certain circumstances, you have the right to request deletion of your personal data. This right is subject to applicable legal retention requirements. |
| Right to Object | You have the right to object to the processing of your data for direct marketing purposes at any time, without needing to provide any justification. |

Matahari88 does not charge any fees for processing reasonable privacy rights requests. However, we reserve the right to charge a reasonable fee for requests that are manifestly excessive or repetitive.

Matahari88 strictly prohibits individuals under the age of 18 from registering or using this platform. Our platform is for adults only and we do not intentionally target or collect data from children under the age of 18.
If we become aware that we have collected personal data from an individual under the age of 18, we will take immediate steps to delete that data and close the account in question. Parents or guardians who have reason to believe their minor child has registered on Matahari88 should contact us immediately via support@matahari88.biz.
Providing false information about your age during registration is a serious breach of Matahari88's Terms & Conditions and may also constitute an offence under Malaysian law. Matahari88 reserves the right to report such cases to the relevant authorities.
Matahari88 reserves the right to modify or update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our data practices, new legal requirements or changes in platform operations. We are committed to notifying you of any material changes through the following means:

If you do not agree with any changes, you have the right to close your account by contacting Matahari88 customer support before the changes take effect.
If you have any questions, concerns or complaints regarding this Privacy Policy or how Matahari88 handles your personal data, please contact our privacy officer through the following channels:
Matahari88 is committed to handling all privacy inquiries and complaints seriously and within a reasonable timeframe. If you are not satisfied with our response, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Department of Personal Data Protection Malaysia (JPDP) or seek independent legal advice regarding your rights under PDPA 2010.
We value the trust you place in matahari88 for entrusting us with your personal data. Protecting your privacy is our priority, and we remain committed to ensuring your data is handled with the highest standards of security and transparency — because without your trust, Matahari88 means nothing.
When you register with Matahari88, you entrust us with important personal information — your name, phone number, email and financial details. We do not take that trust lightly. Since the platform launched in 2018, protecting the personal data of Malaysian players has been one of our core priorities in the way we build and operate this platform.
Many players ask why matahari88 requires so much information during registration and verification. The answer is straightforward — it is to protect you. The identity verification (KYC) process we conduct ensures that only you can access your account, and only you can withdraw funds from it. This is a critical layer of protection in an online platform environment.
Matahari88's payment system is also built with privacy at its core. When you make a deposit via Touch 'n Go eWallet, GrabPay, Boost or FPX, transaction data is transmitted through fully encrypted channels — meaning your payment information is never stored in plain text on our servers. This approach reflects industry best practice, and we are proud to uphold it for every Matahari88 member in Malaysia.
One aspect that sets us apart matahari88 from certain other platforms is our commitment to transparency in data use. We do not bury how we use your data in lengthy, confusing terms. Instead, we strive to state clearly — in plain, easy-to-understand language — what we collect, why we collect it and how we protect it.
In full compliance with Malaysia's PDPA 2010, matahari88 ensures that you as a player remain in control of your personal information at all times. If you want to know what data we hold about you, you can request it. If any data is inaccurate, you can ask us to correct it. And if you want us to delete your data — within the limits permitted by law — you can request that too. This is not merely a legal right; it is how we show respect for you as an individual and as a valued member of matahari88.
