Bt8's Privacy Commitment to You

Six core principles that form the foundation of bt8's data protection framework

🔐

256-bit SSL Encryption

All data transmitted between your device and bt8's servers is protected with bank-grade encryption. Your data cannot be intercepted or read by any third party while in transit.

🚫

No Data Sales

Bt8 has never and will never sell, rent, or transfer members' personal data to third parties for marketing or commercial purposes without your explicit consent.

👤

Your Data Access Rights

As a bt8 member, you have the right to request a copy of the personal data we hold about you, request corrections to inaccurate data, or request deletion of your data under certain circumstances.

🍪

Full Cookie Control

Bt8 uses cookies to enhance the user experience. You can manage your cookie preferences at any time through your web browser settings without affecting the core functionality of the platform.

🏦

Secure MYR Transactions

Your payment data processed via Touch 'n Go eWallet, GrabPay, DuitNow, or FPX is not stored directly by bt8 — it is handled by licensed payment providers that comply with PCI DSS standards.

📋

Malaysia PDPA Compliance

The bt8 privacy policy is founded on Malaysia's Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA) to ensure your data is handled in full compliance with national legal requirements.

Important Note: By using the bt8 platform, you agree to the collection and use of your information as described in this Privacy Policy. This document should be read together with Terms & Conditions bt8.

1 Introduction

Bt8 (bt8.express) takes the privacy of its members' personal data very seriously. We understand that when you register and use our platform to enjoy EPL Sports Betting, Malaysia Super League, badminton, e-sports, live casino table games, and other entertainment, you are entrusting us with your personal information. That trust is not something we take lightly.

This Privacy Policy is designed to give you complete clarity on how bt8 handles your data — what we collect, why we collect it, how it is used, who can access it, and what you can do to control your own information. We have made a deliberate effort to write this document in plain language rather than convoluted legal jargon, because we believe transparency is the foundation of trust.

This Privacy Policy applies to all data collected through the bt8.express website, the bt8 mobile app (if available), email communications with the bt8 team, customer support services, and all other interactions between you and the bt8 platform.

This Privacy Policy was last updated on 1 January 2026. Previous versions are available upon request via email at support@bt8.express.

2 Personal Data We Collect

Bt8 only collects data that is necessary to provide platform services to you. We do not collect excessive or irrelevant data. The following are the categories of data we may collect:

Data Category Example Information How It Is Collected
Identity Data Full name, MyKad/passport number, date of birth Registration & KYC
Contact Data Malaysian phone number, email address Account registration
Financial Data RM deposit/withdrawal records, payment methods used In-platform transactions
Game Data Betting records, games played, wins and losses In-platform activity
Technical Data IP address, device type, web browser, operating system Automated server logs
Usage Data Pages visited, time spent on the platform, features used Cookies & analytics
Communication Data Support ticket history, live chat content, survey responses Customer support interactions

Bt8 does not collect sensitive information such as medical records, religious beliefs, political views, or biometric data unless there is a specific requirement and explicit consent has been obtained from you.

Payment Data: bt8 does not store your full credit/debit card numbers or bank account details. All payments via Touch 'n Go eWallet, GrabPay, Boost, ShopeePay, DuitNow, Maybank2u and CIMB Clicks are processed by licensed payment providers that comply with PCI DSS security standards. bt8 receives only transaction confirmations, not your card or account data.

3 How We Use Your Personal Data

Bt8 uses your personal data only for legitimate and justified purposes. Every use of data has a clear legal basis — whether it is necessary to fulfil a service agreement with you, to comply with legal obligations, or based on legitimate business interests that are balanced against your own.

  • Creating and managing your bt8 account and verifying your identity during registration
  • Processes deposits and withdrawals in MYR via your preferred payment method
  • Providing Sports Betting services, Live Casino table games, lottery, and e-sports
  • Complying with Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Know Your Customer (KYC) requirements
  • Detecting and preventing fraud, unauthorised account activity and platform abuse
  • Providing customer support and resolving your complaints or enquiries
  • Sending important notices relating to your account, security, and changes to the terms of service
  • Analysing platform usage patterns to improve the overall user experience
  • Sending relevant promotional offers and bonus information (subject to your communication preferences)
  • Implementing responsible gambling programmes, including monitoring the limits you have set

Bt8 will not use your data for purposes unrelated to the platform's services without first obtaining your consent.

4 Sharing Data with Third Parties

Bt8 does not sell, rent, or trade members' personal data to any third party. However, in the course of operating the platform, bt8 may share certain data with the following categories of third parties under limited and controlled circumstances:

Payment Service Providers

Providers such as Touch 'n Go, GrabPay, DuitNow, and FPX banks receive only the data necessary to process your MYR transactions. They are bound by strict confidentiality agreements and PCI DSS security standards.

Regulatory Bodies & Authorities

Bt8 is required to disclose data to licensed regulatory bodies, law enforcement authorities, or courts when legally obligated to do so, including for AML and KYC purposes.

Technology Infrastructure Provider

Cloud server providers, analytics services, and cybersecurity firms that support bt8 in operating the platform may process your data. All such providers are bound by strict data processing agreements.

Licensed Game Providers

The live casino table game software providers used by bt8 may process your game session data (not your full identity data) for the purposes of game operation and fairness auditing.

All third parties with whom bt8 shares data are contractually bound to protect your data and use it solely for the purposes authorised. They are not permitted to use your data for their own benefit.

5 Data Security

Bt8 continually invests in its cybersecurity infrastructure to ensure members' personal data is protected to the highest practicable standard. The technical and operational security measures we have in place include:

  • 256-bit SSL/TLS encryption for all data communications between your device and bt8's servers
  • Encryption of data at rest for sensitive information stored in bt8's databases
  • Intrusion detection systems (IDS) and firewalls monitoring network traffic 24 hours a day
  • Role-based access control – bt8 employees can only access the data required to perform their specific responsibilities
  • Periodic security audits and penetration testing conducted by independent third parties
  • Mandatory cybersecurity training for all bt8 employees who handle user data
  • Clear incident response procedures for data breach situations
  • Regular data backups and periodically tested disaster recovery procedures

While bt8 takes all reasonable steps to protect your data, no system can guarantee absolute 100% security. You also play an important role in keeping your account safe — use a strong password, enable 2FA, and never share your login credentials with anyone.

If bt8 discovers or becomes aware of a data breach that may materially affect your privacy rights, we will notify you via your registered email within the timeframe stipulated by applicable law, and report the incident to the relevant authorities.

6 Cookies & Tracking Technologies

Bt8 uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your experience on the platform. Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit the bt8 website. They help the bt8 platform recognise you, remember your preferences, and deliver a more personalised experience.

Cookie Types Purpose Duration
Essential Cookies Enabling core platform functionality – login, game sessions, security Session / 30 days
Performance Cookies Collecting anonymised usage data to improve platform performance Up to 2 years
Functional Cookies Remembering your preferences such as language, display settings, and gaming limits Up to 1 year

You can manage or delete cookies at any time through your web browser settings. Please note that disabling essential cookies may affect the core functionality of the bt8 platform, including your ability to log in and maintain your game session.

7 Data Retention & Deletion

Bt8 retains your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected, or as required by applicable law. Retention periods vary by data type:

  • Active account data: Retained for the duration your account is active and for 5 years following account closure for financial compliance and AML purposes
  • Financial transaction records: Minimum 7 years in accordance with Malaysia's financial regulatory requirements
  • Game and betting logs: 5 years from the date a bet is placed, for dispute resolution and audit purposes
  • Support communication data: 3 years after the ticket is closed
  • Marketing data: Until you withdraw consent or after 2 years of inactivity, whichever comes first
  • Technical logs: 90 days for standard access logs, 1 year for security incident logs

Once the retention period expires, data will be securely deleted or anonymised so it can no longer be linked to you as an individual. bt8's data deletion procedures ensure that deleted data cannot be recovered by any party.

8 Your Personal Data Rights

Under Malaysia's Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA) and bt8's privacy policy, you have the following rights regarding the personal data we hold about you:

Right of Access

You have the right to request a copy of the personal data bt8 holds about you. bt8 will provide a copy in a readable format within 30 days of receiving your request.

Right to Rectification

If you find that personal data held by bt8 is inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to request a correction. Corrections will be made within 14 business days.

Right to Erasure

Under certain circumstances, you may request the deletion of your personal data. Please note that this right is not absolute — bt8 may need to retain certain data to fulfil legal obligations even after an account is closed.

Right to Object to Processing

You may object to the use of your data for specific purposes, particularly direct marketing. Once you object to direct marketing, bt8 will immediately stop using your data for that purpose.

Data Portability

You may request your personal data in a structured, machine-readable format (such as CSV) so that you can transfer it to another service if you wish.

Right to Restriction of Processing

In certain situations — for example, when you are disputing the accuracy of your data or during a complaint investigation — you may request that bt8 temporarily restrict the processing of your data.

To exercise any of the above rights, send a written request to support@bt8.express with the subject line "Personal Data Rights Request" and include your full name and registered phone number for identity verification purposes. bt8 will respond within 30 days of receiving your request.

9 Protection of Children's Data

The bt8 platform is strictly intended for individuals aged 18 and above. bt8 does not knowingly collect, process, or store any personal data from individuals under the age of 18.

If bt8 discovers or is informed that personal data belonging to an individual under the age of 18 has been collected without proper age verification, we will take immediate steps to:

  • Suspend the account in question immediately
  • Delete all data collected from that individual
  • Returning any stored funds to their original source
  • Reporting incidents to the relevant authorities where required

If you suspect that a person under 18 is using the bt8 platform, please report it to us immediately at support@bt8.express. bt8 takes the protection of minors from exposure to gambling very seriously.

10 Cross-Border Data Transfers

In operating the bt8 platform, some of your personal data may be transferred to or stored on servers located outside Malaysia. This may occur when bt8 uses cloud infrastructure services, analytics providers, or international gaming software providers.

Where data transfers outside Malaysia occur, bt8 ensures a standard of protection equivalent to what is required under Malaysian law through mechanisms such as:

  • Standard data transfer agreements incorporating strict data protection clauses
  • Ensuring data is only transferred to jurisdictions with an adequate level of data protection
  • Encryption of data in transit across borders
  • Data processing agreements that bind suppliers to the protection standards set by bt8
11 Links to Other Platforms

The bt8 platform may from time to time contain references to external platforms or services for informational purposes — such as official sports information or league news. bt8's Privacy Policy applies solely to the bt8 platform itself.

Bt8 is not responsible for the privacy practices or content of third-party platforms that may be referenced from bt8.express. If you visit any external platform, we encourage you to read their own privacy policy before providing any personal information.

Any links appearing on the bt8 platform are provided for reference purposes only. Their presence does not imply that bt8 endorses, recommends or accepts any responsibility for the linked platforms.

FAQ – bt8 Privacy Policy

The most frequently asked questions about privacy and data protection at bt8

No. bt8 does not sell, rent or trade members' personal data to any third party for marketing or commercial purposes. Your data is shared only in very limited circumstances — with technical service providers that help us operate the platform (such as cloud infrastructure providers), licensed payment providers that process your MYR transactions (such as Touch 'n Go and DuitNow), and legal authorities when required by law. All such third parties are contractually bound to protect your data and may not use it for their own purposes.

bt8 does not directly store your Touch 'n Go, GrabPay, DuitNow, Boost, ShopeePay, Maybank2u, or CIMB Clicks account details or passwords in our systems. When you make a payment, you will be redirected to a secure payment page managed by a licensed payment provider that complies with PCI DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard) industry security standards. bt8 only receives a transaction confirmation indicating whether a payment was successful or failed — not your account details or password. All communication between your device and the payment page is protected with 256-bit SSL encryption.

Yes, you may request the deletion of your personal data. However, this right is not absolute. bt8 has legal obligations to retain certain data even after an account is closed — particularly financial and transaction records for a minimum of 5 to 7 years, as required under Malaysian financial laws and the Anti-Money Laundering Act. Data not subject to these legal obligations — such as marketing data, browsing history and user preferences — will be deleted within 90 days of your request being approved. To submit a data deletion request, send an email to support@bt8.express with the subject line "Personal Data Rights Request – Deletion".

Yes. bt8's Privacy Policy is drafted in accordance with Malaysia's Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA), which is the primary Malaysian law governing the processing of personal data in commercial transactions. bt8 complies with all data protection principles set out in the PDPA, including the General Principle, Notice and Choice Principle, Disclosure Principle, Security Principle, Retention Principle, Data Integrity Principle, Access Principle, and Sensitive Personal Data Principle. Beyond the PDPA, bt8 also adheres to data protection requirements relevant to betting platform operations and international financial compliance.

You can opt out of receiving marketing and promotional emails from bt8 at any time through several methods. The easiest way is to click the "Unsubscribe" link found at the bottom of any bt8 promotional email. Alternatively, you can go to the "Notification Settings" section in your bt8 account to manage all your communication preferences — including email, SMS, and in-platform notifications — individually. You may also contact the bt8 support team via live chat or email at support@bt8.express to request an unsubscribe. Please note that even if you opt out of marketing emails, bt8 still needs to send important transactional emails such as deposit confirmations, withdrawal confirmations, and account security notices, as these form part of the core service.
