8. Data Retention & Deletion How long s188 retains your personal information

S188 retains your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes stated in this Privacy Policy, or as required by applicable law.

Data retention periods vary by information type and applicable legal requirements. Generally, financial records are kept for seven (7) years in accordance with tax reporting and audit requirements, while KYC documents are retained for five (5) years after account closure to comply with anti-money laundering regulations.

Once the retention period has ended or when data is no longer needed, s188 will securely delete or anonymise that data using methods that ensure it cannot be recovered.

If you close your s188 account, we will initiate a data deletion process for information that does not need to be retained for legal reasons within 90 days of the account closure date.

9. International Data Transfers Data protection during cross-border transfers

In certain circumstances, your personal data may be processed or stored on servers located outside Malaysia, for example when we use international cloud services or global technology providers.

When such data transfers occur, s188 ensures that equivalent or higher protection is applied to your data through:

  • Data transfer agreements compliant with recognised data protection standards.
  • Use of standard contractual clauses approved by the relevant regulatory bodies.
  • Selecting service providers with internationally recognised data security certifications.

You may contact us for more information about the data transfer mechanisms used and the list of countries where your data may be processed.

S188 reserves the right to amend this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in our practices, legal requirements or platform enhancements. The "Last Updated" date at the top of this page will be updated each time a change is made.

For significant changes, s188 will notify players via an in-account notice or email to the registered address at least 14 days before the changes take effect. For minor changes that do not materially affect player rights, changes may take effect immediately.

Your continued use of the s188 platform after any changes take effect will be considered acceptance of the amended Privacy Policy. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
