Cookies and Activity Tracking
The 816 platform uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your browsing experience. Cookies are small data files stored on your device when you visit our site, and they help us recognise you on return visits without requiring you to log in each time. The use of cookies is standard practice across the technology and online entertainment industry worldwide, including in Malaysia.
Essential Cookies
These cookies are essential for core platform functions such as login sessions, account security, and language preferences. Without them, certain parts of the 816 platform may not function properly and your experience will be directly affected.
Analytics Cookies
These cookies help us understand how users interact with the 816 platform, including the most frequently visited pages and time spent on each. This information is used in aggregate form and is not used to identify any individual personally.
Preference Cookies
Preference cookies store your personal settings such as preferred language, time zone, and display configuration. This ensures that every time you return to the 816 platform, your previously selected settings are automatically applied.
Managing Your Cookies
You can manage or delete cookies at any time through your browser settings. Most modern browsers offer options to block or automatically delete cookies. Please note, however, that disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality and usability of the 816 platform.
Your Data Storage & Security
816 takes the security of your data extremely seriously and employs multiple layers of technical and procedural safeguards to keep your information protected at all times. We use 256-bit SSL encryption for all data transmissions between your device and our servers, ensuring your information cannot be read by unauthorised parties while in transit. Our servers are protected by a multi-layered security framework that includes advanced firewalls, real-time threat monitoring, and strict access controls.
Your data is stored in data centres that comply with international security standards, and only authorised personnel may access users' personal information for legitimate operational purposes. 816 conducts regular security audits and penetration testing to identify and address any system vulnerabilities before they can be exploited. In the event of a data breach affecting your personal information, we are committed to notifying you in a timely manner and taking immediate remedial action.
Data Retention Period
Your personal data will be retained for as long as your account remains active, or as long as necessary to provide services to you. Upon account closure, data will be held for the minimum period required under Malaysian law before being securely deleted. Financial transaction records may be retained for longer to comply with applicable legal and regulatory requirements.
Sharing Information with Third Parties
816 does not sell, rent, or disclose your personal information to third parties for marketing purposes without your explicit consent. However, there are limited circumstances where we may need to share your information with certain parties to enable the platform to operate effectively and to comply with applicable legal requirements.
Payment Processors
Transaction information is shared with licensed payment service providers in Malaysia that process your deposits and withdrawals. These processors are bound by strict confidentiality agreements and may only use your data for payment processing purposes.
