Sportybet takes the privacy of every member in Malaysia seriously. This document clearly explains how we collect, use, store, and protect your personal data in accordance with the Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA 2010).
For sportybet, privacy is more than a legal obligation – it is a mark of respect for every member who entrusts us with their personal information. Whether you are registering an account, making a deposit via Touch 'n Go or FPX, or placing a bet on your favourite Malaysia Super League or India IPL match, you are sharing some of your personal information with us. We take that responsibility seriously.
This Privacy Policy is written in plain, clear language so every sportybet Malaysia member can understand exactly what happens with their data – without having to wade through complex legal language. We believe transparency is the foundation of trust, and your trust is what we value most in operating the sportybet platform.
Sportybet fully complies with the Malaysian Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA 2010) and all regulations and guidelines issued under it. This Privacy Policy explains the types of data we collect, the purposes for collecting it, how we protect it, which parties may have limited access to it, and your rights regarding your personal data.
Important Note: By registering for or using the sportybet platform, you consent to the processing of your personal data in accordance with the terms of this Privacy Policy. Should there be any material changes to the Privacy Policy, we will notify you by email or via an in-account notification. Continued use of the sportybet platform following such notification will be considered acceptance of those changes.

These principles shape how we manage every aspect of your personal data at sportybet
Sportybet only collects data that is genuinely necessary to operate the platform and meet legal requirements. We do not collect excessive data without a clear purpose. Every information field we request during registration exists for a reason – whether for identity verification, payment processing, or PDPA compliance.
All data you provide to sportybet — from registration details to your Touch 'n Go or FPX transaction information — is protected with 256-bit SSL encryption, the same standard used by leading financial institutions in Malaysia. Our server infrastructure is secured with multiple layers of protection and monitored around the clock.
Sportybet does not sell, rent, or trade members' personal data to any third party for marketing or any other commercial purpose. Your data belongs to you. We only share the information necessary with specific operational partners — and only within the strict limits set out in this Privacy Policy.
Sportybet complies fully with all provisions of the Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA 2010), which governs the processing of personal data in Malaysia. A dedicated Privacy Officer ensures that all of sportybet's data handling practices consistently meet current legal requirements and any amendments in force.
You have the right to access, correct, or request the deletion of your personal data on sportybet at any time. You can also withdraw consent for marketing communications easily through your account settings or by contacting us. Sportybet respects your choices and will handle all data-related requests with due seriousness.
Sportybet's Privacy Policy is written in clear, straightforward language with nothing hidden in the fine print. We believe members who understand how their data is managed are more confident and better protected. That's why we keep this document up to date whenever changes occur and notify you in advance.

Under Malaysia's PDPA 2010, sportybet has a valid legal basis for each type of data processing we carry out. These bases are:
PDPA Note: The Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA) is the primary legislation governing personal data processing in Malaysia. As a responsible data processor, sportybet ensures all our processing activities comply with the seven Data Protection Principles set out in the PDPA — including the General, Notice & Choice, Disclosure, Security, Retention, Data Integrity, and Access principles.
Sportybet does not sell, rent, or trade members' personal data to any third party for marketing purposes. However, in the course of operating the platform, sportybet may need to share certain information with the following parties within strictly defined limits:
All third parties that receive data from sportybet are bound by data processing agreements that prohibit them from using that data for any purpose other than what has been specified, and require them to protect it to a standard of security equivalent to that of sportybet.
Cross-Border Data Transfers: Where any data needs to be transferred outside Malaysia (for example, to international technology providers), sportybet ensures that adequate protections are in place for that data in accordance with the requirements of PDPA 2010. We do not transfer data to countries that lack equivalent data protection standards.
Sportybet invests seriously in security infrastructure to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, loss, misuse, or disclosure. The security measures we have implemented include:
While sportybet takes all reasonable precautions, no security system is entirely foolproof. In the event of any security incident affecting your personal data, sportybet will notify you and the relevant authorities in accordance with PDPA 2010 requirements within the stipulated timeframe.
Sportybet retains your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected, or as required by Malaysian law. sportybet's data retention policy is as follows:
Once the retention period expires, sportybet will securely delete or anonymise your data so it can no longer be linked to you. If you request deletion before the legally required retention period ends, we will inform you of the minimum period we are obligated to observe under applicable law.
