998hihi's Privacy Commitment to Malaysian Players

Six core principles that underpin our privacy policy

Bank-Grade Encryption

All personal data and financial information transmitted through the 998hihi platform is protected by SSL 256-bit encryption technology — the same standard used by Maybank and CIMB Bank. No sensitive information is ever transmitted without protection.

No Data Sales

998hihi has never sold, rented or commercially exploited players' personal data to any third party for marketing or commercial purposes, and never will. Your data belongs to you — not to us as a business asset.

User Data Controls

You have the full right to access, correct, download or request deletion of your personal data held by 998hihi at any time. Simply contact our privacy team and we will respond within 7 business days.

Malaysia PDPA Compliance

998hihi's Privacy Policy is in full compliance with Malaysia's Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA). We handle your personal data in accordance with the principles set out in the Act, including the principles of consent, purpose limitation and data integrity.

Limited Data Retention

998hihi retains your personal data only for as long as necessary for the stated purpose or as required by law. Once the retention period expires, your data will be securely deleted or anonymised.

Breach Notification

In the event of a data security breach affecting your personal information, 998hihi will notify you within 72 hours of confirming the incident, along with the remedial steps taken.

Important Note: This Privacy Policy explains how 998hihi ("We", "Platform") collects, uses, discloses and protects your personal information when you use our services. By registering for or using the 998hihi platform, you consent to the practices described in this policy.

1. Introduction & Scope of This Policy

It applies to all users of our platform regardless of whether you are in Kuala Lumpur, Johor Bahru, Kota Kinabalu, George Town or anywhere else in Malaysia.

Protecting your personal data is 998hihi's foremost technical priority. We implement multiple layers of security to keep your data safe:

Data Encryption

256-bit SSL during transmission and AES-256 encryption for stored sensitive data

Access Controls

Only authorised personnel may access personal data, with access records maintained at all times

24/7 Monitoring

Round-the-clock anomaly detection and intrusion monitoring systems to identify threats

Regular Audits

Security testing and compliance audits are conducted on a regular basis by independent third parties

While we take all reasonable security measures, no system on the internet can be guaranteed 100% secure. You also play an important role by keeping your 998hihi account password and login credentials confidential.
