Desabet Privacy Policy
Desabet is committed to protecting your personal data and handling it with transparency and care. This Privacy Policy explains what data we collect, why we collect it, how we use it, who we share it with, and what rights you have over your own information as a Desabet player.
How We Protect Your Privacy
256-Bit SSL Encryption
All data transmitted between your browser or device and the Desabet Platform is encrypted using 256-bit SSL, the same standard used by major Malaysian banks. Your personal information and payment details are never transmitted in plain text.
No Third-Party Data Sales
Desabet does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to third-party marketers. Your information is used strictly to operate your account, process payments, and comply with legal obligations — nothing else.
Minimal Data Collection
We collect only the personal data that is strictly necessary to provide our services, verify your identity, process payments, and fulfil our legal obligations. We do not collect data speculatively or beyond what is operationally required.
Full User Rights
You have the right to access, correct, export, or request deletion of your personal data at any time. Submit a request through our support team and we will respond within 30 calendar days as required by our privacy obligations.
Defined Retention Periods
We retain your personal data only as long as your account is active or as required by law. Account records and transaction data are retained for a defined statutory period following account closure, after which they are securely deleted or anonymised.
Breach Notification
In the event of a data breach that poses a material risk to your rights, Desabet will notify affected users promptly and take immediate remedial action. We maintain incident response procedures aligned with data protection best practices.

Legal Basis for Processing
Desabet relies on the following legal bases for processing your personal data:
- Contractual Necessity: The majority of data processing is necessary to perform the contract between you and Desabet — i.e., to provide the services you have registered for. This includes account management, payment processing, and KYC;

- Legitimate Interests: Desabet processes certain data on the basis of its legitimate interests, including fraud prevention, platform security, and improving the quality of our services — provided that such interests are not overridden by your fundamental rights and freedoms;
- Consent: Where we seek to send you marketing communications or deploy non-essential cookies, we will do so only on the basis of your explicit, freely given consent, which you may withdraw at any time without penalty.
Data Sharing & Disclosure
Desabet does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to any third party for marketing purposes. We may share your personal data with the following categories of recipients, strictly on a need-to-know basis and subject to appropriate data protection safeguards:

- Access Controls: Access to personal data is restricted to authorised personnel who require it to perform their job functions, enforced through role-based access control and multi-factor authentication;

- Penetration Testing and Security Audits: Our platform infrastructure undergoes regular security assessments, vulnerability scans, and penetration tests by qualified information security professionals;
- Incident Response: Desabet maintains a documented data breach incident response plan. In the event of a breach that poses a material risk to your rights, you will be notified promptly.
Your Role in Security: You are responsible for keeping your Desabet account credentials confidential. Use a strong, unique password that you do not use on other platforms. Enable two-factor authentication if available. Never share your credentials with any third party, including anyone claiming to be from Desabet support.
Cookies & Tracking Technologies
The Desabet Platform uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to provide a functional, personalised, and secure user experience. This section explains what cookies we use and why.
What Are Cookies? Cookies are small text files placed on your device by the Platform when you visit. They allow the Platform to remember your preferences, maintain your session, and collect analytical data about how the Platform is used.
You may manage your cookie preferences through your browser settings at any time. Note that disabling essential or security cookies will impair the functionality of the Platform and may prevent you from logging in or processing transactions. For mobile users accessing the Platform on Android or iOS devices common in Malaysia, cookie management settings are available within the browser application settings.

Right of Access
Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you, along with information about how it is being processed.
Right to Rectification
Request correction of any inaccurate or incomplete personal data we hold about you.
Right to Erasure

Children's Privacy
The Desabet Platform is strictly intended for adults aged 21 years and above. We do not knowingly collect personal data from persons under the age of 21. If we become aware that personal data has been collected from an individual under 21, we will immediately close the associated account and securely delete all data collected in connection with that account.
Parents or guardians who believe their child may have accessed or registered on the Platform without authorisation are urged to contact our support team immediately so that the matter can be investigated and resolved promptly.
Age Enforcement: Desabet enforces the 21+ age requirement through mandatory KYC identity verification. All accounts are subject to age verification before withdrawal privileges are activated. Any account where the holder is found to be under 21 will be immediately closed and any deposited funds returned to the originating payment method.
International Data Transfers
In certain circumstances, your personal data may be transferred to, stored in, or processed by recipients located outside of Malaysia. This may occur where, for example, our KYC verification provider, fraud prevention service, or cloud infrastructure provider operates servers in another jurisdiction.
Where such transfers occur, Desabet takes appropriate measures to ensure that your personal data continues to receive an adequate level of protection consistent with this Privacy Policy. Such measures include contractual data processing agreements incorporating standard data protection clauses, and ensuring that any recipient jurisdiction provides an adequate level of data protection.
By using the Desabet Platform, you acknowledge that your personal data may be transferred internationally as described in this clause.
Third-Party Links & Services
The Desabet Platform may contain links to or integrations with third-party services, including payment providers, game software platforms, and identity verification services. This Privacy Policy applies solely to data collected and processed by Desabet directly. It does not apply to the data practices of any third-party service provider, operator, or website.
When you interact with a third-party service accessed through the Platform — for example, when you authorise a DuitNow or Touch 'n Go transaction — that service is governed by its own privacy policy and terms of use. Desabet is not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party services and encourages you to review their respective privacy policies before engaging with them.
Amendments to This Policy
Desabet reserves the right to update or modify this Privacy Policy at any time. Changes will be effective from the date they are published on the Platform, and the "Last Updated" date at the top of this document will be revised accordingly.
Where a proposed amendment materially affects your rights or our data processing practices, Desabet will endeavour to provide you with advance notice via email to your registered address, or via a prominent notice on the Platform, prior to the change taking effect.
Your continued use of the Platform following the publication of any amendment to this Policy constitutes your acknowledgement of the updated terms. If you have concerns about any proposed amendment, please contact our support team before the effective date.
