5. Data Sharing and Disclosure

Ug8 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to any third party. However, there are limited situations where we need to share your data with specific parties:

  • Trusted Service Providers: Technical partners such as payment processors (DuitNow, FPX, Touch 'n Go eWallet, GrabPay), identity verification providers, and cloud service providers that help us operate the platform. All such partners are bound by strict data confidentiality agreements.
  • Licensed Game Providers: Internationally licensed gaming companies that provide game content on the ug8 platform may receive session data required to run the games. This data is limited and does not include your full financial information.
  • Legal Authority: When required by Malaysian law, court order or official request from a law enforcement authority, we will disclose the necessary data in accordance with proper legal procedures.
  • Fraud Prevention: In cases involving suspected fraud, we may share relevant information with financial institutions, regulatory bodies or relevant authorities for investigation purposes.

Cross-Border Data Transfers: If your data needs to be transferred outside Malaysia (for example, for international payment processing), ug8 ensures such transfers are protected by data protection mechanisms equivalent to or stricter than Malaysia's PDPA standards.

6. Data Security and Protection

Ug8 continuously invests in security infrastructure to ensure your personal data remains protected at all times. The technical and organisational measures we implement include:

  • Strict Access Control: Only authorised ug8 staff who require access to perform their duties are permitted to access users' personal data.
  • Regular Security Audits: Our security systems are regularly audited by independent cybersecurity firms to ensure data protection standards are consistently up to date.
  • Data Breach Procedure: In the event of any security incident affecting your data, ug8 is committed to notifying affected users and the relevant authorities within the timeframe required by law.

While we make every effort to protect your data, no system can guarantee 100% absolute security. You also play an important role by keeping your password confidential and not sharing your login details with anyone.
