What data does Comel88 hold about me, and how long is it kept?

Comel88 retains identity data (name, date of birth, phone number), transaction data (deposit history via TNG eWallet/DuitNow/GrabPay/FPX, bets placed, withdrawals), and usage data (games played, session logs). Financial and transaction records are kept for a minimum of 5 years in accordance with Malaysian legal requirements. Non-compliance-related usage data is typically retained for 2 years. Once your account is closed and the mandatory retention period has ended, your data will be securely deleted or anonymised. You may request a report of the data we hold about you at any time by emailing support@comel88.best.

Does Comel88 share my data with other companies or advertisers?

No. Comel88 does not sell, rent, or provide your personal data to advertising companies, data brokers, or any third party for their own commercial purposes. Your data is shared only in the limited situations set out in our Privacy Policy — specifically with payment processors to handle deposits and withdrawals (TNG eWallet, DuitNow, GrabPay, FPX, and others), and with authorities when required under Malaysian law. All such data sharing is subject to strict confidentiality agreements.

How do I stop Comel88 from sending me promotional messages?

You can opt out of marketing communications from Comel88 in several ways: (1) Click the "Unsubscribe" or "Opt Out" link found at the bottom of any promotional email we send. (2) Log in to your Comel88 account, go to "Settings", and find the "Communication Preferences" section to adjust the types of notifications you wish to receive. (3) Contact our support team via 24/7 LiveChat or email support@comel88.best to request removal from marketing communications. Your request will be processed within 5 business days. Note: You will still receive essential service communications such as OTP verification and security notices required for basic account functions.

What happens to my data if I close my Comel88 account?

When you close your Comel88 account, we do not immediately delete all your data. Under Malaysian law, we are required to retain financial records and transaction data for a minimum of 5 years from the date of the last transaction. This is a legal compliance requirement that we cannot waive. Once this mandatory retention period expires, your data will be securely deleted or anonymised in accordance with our data deletion procedures. Throughout this retention period, your data remains protected by all the security measures outlined in our Privacy Policy and is not used for any commercial or marketing purposes.

Is my deposit and withdrawal information (TNG eWallet, DuitNow, bank) safe at Comel88?

Yes, all your financial information on Comel88 is protected to the highest security standards. Your bank account number registered for withdrawals is stored in encrypted form using AES-256 — meaning even if someone gained unauthorised access to our database, they would not be able to read your account number. All deposit transactions via Touch 'n Go eWallet, DuitNow QR, GrabPay, Boost, ShopeePay, and FPX online banking are processed through a secure payment gateway with end-to-end encryption. Comel88 does not store your credit card numbers or online banking passwords — we only receive transaction confirmations from payment processors and never retain those sensitive details.

comel88 | Privacy Policy and Personal Data Protection

This Privacy Policy applies to all users of the Comel88 platform, including registered members, users in the process of registering, and visitors who browse our website without creating an account. It should be read alongside Comel88's Terms & Conditions and together forms the complete privacy agreement between us and you.

2. Personal Data We Collect

Comel88 collects your personal data in several ways — directly from you during registration and platform use, and automatically through the technologies used on our website. Here is a breakdown of the types of data we collect:

Data Category	Example Information	How It Is Collected
Identity Data	Full name, date of birth, MyKad or passport number	Registration & KYC verification
Contact Data	Malaysian mobile number, email address	Account registration
Financial Data	Malaysian bank account number, bank name, account holder name	Withdrawal process

We not collect sensitive information such as medical data, religious beliefs, political views, or biometric data, except where required by Malaysian law. We also do not collect data from your social media accounts or combine your profile with external data sources without your explicit consent.

3. How We Use Your Personal Data

Comel88 uses the personal data we collect for the following purposes, all of which are grounded in lawful bases under Malaysia's PDPA:

Account Management and Identity Verification: Your identity data is used to open and manage your Comel88 account, verify your age (minimum 18 years) and identity in line with KYC (Know Your Customer) compliance requirements, and process deposits and withdrawals to your Malaysian bank account.

Platform Security and Fraud Prevention: Technical and transaction data is used to detect suspicious activity, prevent fraud, identify the use of multiple accounts, and protect the integrity of the Comel88 platform. This includes analysis of betting patterns to detect bot usage or collusion.

Product Improvement & User Experience: Usage data is analysed in aggregate (without identifying individual users) to understand how members use Comel88, which games are most popular, and where improvements can be made to the platform interface and overall user experience.

Service Communications: Your phone number and email address are used to send important notifications such as OTP verification, account security alerts, transaction information, and critical policy updates. You cannot opt out of these essential service communications as they are a core part of your Comel88 account's functionality.

Marketing and Promotions (with consent): If you opted in to receive marketing communications during registration or at any point thereafter, we may use your phone number or email to notify you about Comel88 promotions, bonuses, and the latest offers. You can withdraw this consent at any time through your account settings or by contacting our customer support team.

Responsible Gaming: Your betting pattern data is used by Comel88's systems to detect signs of problem gambling — such as escalating bets following consecutive losses. This allows us to take proactive steps to safeguard member wellbeing, including reaching out to members directly where necessary.

Legal & Regulatory Compliance: Comel88 has legal obligations to retain certain records and disclose information to Malaysian authorities when required by law — for example, in financial crime investigations or pursuant to a court order. Data used for these purposes does not require additional consent from you.

4. Data Sharing with Third Parties

Comel88 does not sell, rent, or distribute members' personal data to third parties for their own commercial purposes. However, there are limited situations where we need to share data with certain parties to ensure our platform operates correctly and complies with Malaysian law:

Payment Service Providers: To process deposits via Touch 'n Go eWallet, DuitNow, GrabPay, Boost, ShopeePay, and FPX online banking (Maybank2u, CIMB Clicks), we are required to share the necessary transaction information with the respective payment processors. This data is limited strictly to what is needed to complete the transaction.
Game Content Providers: Third-party game providers that supply slots, live casino, and other games on the Comel88 platform may receive your account ID (not your real name) for technical purposes. These providers are bound by strict data protection agreements with Comel88.
Legal Authorities: Comel88 will disclose data when required to do so by Malaysian law, a court order, or official direction from a relevant law enforcement or regulatory authority.
Fraud Prevention: In cases involving suspected fraud or financial crime, we may share the necessary information with authorities or financial institutions to support an investigation.

All third parties that receive data from Comel88 are bound by confidentiality and data protection agreements, ensuring they handle your data to the same standards we uphold. Comel88 does not share data with marketing companies, advertisers, or data brokers.

5. Data Security — Technical and Organisational Measures

Comel88 continuously invests in security infrastructure to ensure our members' personal data is protected to the highest standard. The key security measures we have implemented are as follows:

SSL 256-bit Encryption (Data in Transit): All communications between your browser or app and Comel88's servers are encrypted using Transport Layer Security (TLS) 1.3 with a 256-bit key length. This ensures that data in transit between your device and us — including passwords and transaction details — cannot be intercepted or read by any third party.

AES-256 Encryption (Data at Rest): Sensitive data stored in the Comel88 database — including passwords (which are hashed) and financial details — is encrypted using the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) with a 256-bit key. This is the same encryption standard used to protect classified government information in many countries.

Access Controls & Segregation of Duties: Access to members' personal data within Comel88's internal systems is restricted to staff who genuinely require it to perform their duties (principle of least privilege). All access is logged and audited. Internal passwords are enforced by a minimum-strength policy and must be changed on a regular basis.

Data Backup and Recovery: Comel88 data is automatically backed up daily to a secure, geographically separate, and encrypted location. This ensures your data will not be lost in the event of a hardware failure or disaster. Data recovery procedures are tested regularly to confirm they work effectively.

Regular Security Audits: Comel88 conducts regular internal security audits and engages independent cybersecurity firms for penetration testing at least once a year. Any vulnerabilities identified are addressed promptly in accordance with our established patch management procedures.

While we take every reasonable measure to protect your data, no security system can guarantee 100% absolute protection. We encourage members to play their part by using a strong, unique password for their Comel88 account, not sharing login credentials, and contacting us immediately if they suspect any unauthorised activity on their account.

6. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Comel88 uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your experience on our platform. Cookies are small text files stored by your web browser when you visit our website. The following are the types of cookies we use:

Essential Cookies (Required): These cookies are essential for the basic functioning of the Comel88 platform — including maintaining your login session, saving your language preference, and ensuring your bet slip works correctly. Without them, the platform will not function as intended. These cookies cannot be disabled through our privacy settings.
Performance & Analytics Cookies: These cookies collect information about how you use the Comel88 platform — which pages you visit most often, how long you spend on them, and any error messages you encounter. This data is used to improve how our platform performs. All data collected by these cookies is aggregated and anonymised.
Functional Cookies: These cookies allow the Comel88 platform to remember the preferences you set — such as your username (via the "Remember me" option), your favourite game categories, and personal display settings. The aim is to deliver a more personalised and comfortable experience.
Session Cookies vs. Persistent Cookies: Session cookies are deleted automatically when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain on your device until they expire or you delete them manually. Comel88 uses both types depending on the functionality required.

You can manage and delete cookies through your web browser settings. However, disabling essential cookies may affect the functionality of the Comel88 platform and prevent you from accessing certain features. For guidance on managing cookies in Chrome, Firefox, Safari, or Edge, please refer to the respective browser's help documentation.

8. Children's Data Protection

Comel88 is a betting platform intended exclusively for adults aged 18 and above. We do not knowingly collect, store, or process personal data of individuals under the age of 18.

Comel88 employs age verification methods during the registration process, including date of birth requests and identity document verification where applicable. Should we discover that personal data has been collected from an individual under the age of 18 without our knowledge, we will take immediate steps to delete that data and close the account in question.

Parents or guardians who suspect their child may have registered a Comel88 account are urged to contact our support team immediately at support@comel88.best or via 24/7 LiveChat. We will investigate and take appropriate action without delay.

An in-platform notification on Comel88 the next time you log in
Email to the address registered on your account (for highly material changes)
An in-page notice at least 14 days before the changes take effect

Your continued use of the Comel88 platform after the effective date of any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with any of the changes, you have the right to close your account and request deletion of your personal data in accordance with the procedure set out in Section 7.
