Wira88's Privacy Commitment

Six core principles that guide how wira88 handles your personal data

256-bit SSL Encryption

No Sale of Personal Data

Wira88 has never and will never sell, rent, or transfer members' personal data to any third party for marketing or commercial purposes. Your data belongs to you, and we respect that right absolutely.

As a wira88 member, you have the full right to access, correct, or request the deletion of your personal data. We provide a straightforward process for exercising these rights through our customer support team, available 24/7.

Data Minimisation

Wira88 only collects data that is genuinely necessary to provide our services, process financial transactions, and meet legal requirements. No excess data is collected or stored without a clear and legitimate purpose.

Confidentiality of Betting Records

Your betting activity records, game history, and financial information are strictly confidential. This information will not be disclosed to any external party except by court order or valid legal requirement.

The wira88 platform is restricted to individuals aged 18 years and above only. Wira88 does not knowingly collect or process personal data of anyone under the age of 18.

If you are under 18 years of age, please stop using the wira88 platform immediately. Should wira88 discover that we have inadvertently collected personal data belonging to a minor, we will take immediate steps to delete that information and close the account in question.

If there is any suspicion that an account holder is under 18 years of age, wira88 reserves the right to suspend the account immediately and require age verification documents before allowing any access or transactions.

10Cross-Border Data Transfers

In the course of its operations, wira88 may need to transfer your personal data to servers or service providers located outside Malaysia. This includes cloud computing services, international game providers, and global payment processing systems.

Any international data transfers carried out by wira88 are subject to adequate safeguards to ensure your data continues to be protected at a standard equivalent to that afforded in Malaysia. These protective measures include:

  • A contractually binding standard data transfer agreement requiring all parties who receive your data to comply with the established data protection standards.
  • Selecting service providers that are based in jurisdictions with robust and recognised data protection laws.
  • Regular assessments of third-party providers to ensure ongoing compliance with required security standards.

By using the wira88 platform, you consent to data transfers as described in this section, subject to the protective measures stated herein.

Frequently Asked Questions – Wira88 Privacy Policy

The questions our members ask most frequently about privacy and data protection on our platform

No – your betting activity records on wira88 are kept strictly confidential. We do not share your betting history, winnings, or losses with any third party for commercial purposes. The only exceptions are when disclosure is required by a court order or official directive from a law enforcement authority, or as part of a legitimate AML investigation. In all such cases, wira88 will comply with applicable legal requirements while making every effort to protect members' interests to the fullest extent possible.

The Know Your Customer (KYC) process is a mandatory requirement imposed on all internationally licensed betting platforms. Its purpose is to prevent identity fraud, money laundering, and other unlawful activities. At wira88, identity documents such as your MyKad are required to verify that you are the legitimate account holder and that you meet the minimum age requirement. These documents are stored securely using strong encryption and accessed only by authorised staff for verification purposes. They will not be used for any other purpose or shared with third parties without a valid legal basis.

You may request the deletion of your personal data, but please note that certain limitations apply based on legal obligations. Data related to financial transactions (deposit, withdrawal, and winnings records) must be retained for a minimum of 7 years under AML requirements and financial legislation. KYC documents must also be kept for a minimum of 5 years after account closure. Information not subject to statutory retention obligations – such as marketing preferences, analytics data, and general account information – may be deleted upon account closure. To submit a data deletion request, please contact the wira88 support team by email at support@wira88.biz.

Your e-wallet information is handled with the highest level of security at wira88. All communications involving financial data are encrypted with 256-bit SSL. Your e-wallet account details are not stored in full within our systems — we retain only a reference token issued by the payment gateway, not your full account number. Withdrawals to an e-wallet can only be processed to the same method used for the deposit and to the verified account holder, adding an extra layer of fraud protection. Our payment gateway providers also comply with the strict PCI-DSS payment security standard.

When you close your wira88 account, your data is not deleted immediately in its entirety. This is because certain data must be retained for specific periods under legal requirements — such as financial transaction records (7 years) and KYC documents (5 years). However, information not subject to mandatory retention requirements will be deleted or anonymised within a reasonable period following account closure. Closed accounts will not be used to send marketing communications. Should you choose to re-register in the future, you will be required to complete a new registration and KYC process.
