Data Sharing & Third-Party Disclosure
play99 does not sell, rent, or trade your Personal Data to any third party for commercial or marketing purposes. We may share your Personal Data with third parties only in the following limited and defined circumstances:
play99 shares transactional data with licensed payment service providers — including Malaysian payment gateways facilitating Touch 'n Go eWallet, Boost, GrabPay, DuitNow, FPX, and interbank transfers — solely to the extent necessary to process your deposits and withdrawals. These providers are bound by contractual confidentiality obligations and applicable payment industry security standards.
KYC documentation may be processed by licensed third-party identity verification services contracted by play99. These providers process your KYC data solely on our behalf and under our instructions, and are prohibited from using your data for any other purpose.

play99 uses third-party cloud infrastructure, data analytics, and security monitoring services. These providers may process certain technical data (such as IP addresses and server logs) on our behalf but are contractually prohibited from accessing, retaining, or using personally identifiable data beyond what is strictly necessary for the contracted service.
Important: play99 will never contact you requesting your banking password, OTP codes, full payment card numbers, or any other sensitive credential via chat, email, or any other communication channel.
