1 Introduction

Rtf8 ("we", "our platform") takes our responsibility to user privacy seriously. This Privacy Policy is written in plain, easy-to-understand language so every user in Malaysia knows exactly how their personal data is handled — not just legal text that no one reads.

As an online gaming platform operating in Malaysia, rtf8 is subject to the Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA) and all related regulations enforced by the Department of Personal Data Protection Malaysia. We take compliance seriously — not because we have to, but because we believe users deserve to know their data is handled properly.

This policy explains what information we collect, why we need it, how we use it, who may view it, and your rights as a user to control that data. If any part is unclear, our support team is ready to assist you.

4 Sharing Information with Third Parties

Rtf8 does not sell, rent, or trade users' personal data to any third party for commercial purposes. However, there are limited situations where we may need to share certain information:

Trusted Service Providers

We work with selected and trusted third-party providers to support platform operations, including payment gateway providers, identity verification service providers, security auditing firms, and technical infrastructure providers. All these providers are bound by strict confidentiality agreements and are only permitted to use your data for the specified purposes.

Legal Requirements

Rtf8 may be required to disclose user information to relevant authorities if mandated by Malaysian law, a valid court order, or in investigations involving financial crime, fraud, or other illegal activity.

Platform Protection

In cases involving serious security threats to the platform or other users, rtf8 reserves the right to share relevant information with the appropriate law enforcement authorities.

Our commitment: rtf8 has never and will never sell users' personal data to advertisers, data brokers, or any commercial third party. This is our absolute commitment to all users in Malaysia.

5 Data Storage and Security

User data security is one of rtf8's most significant investments. We employ multiple layers of technical and administrative security to ensure your information is protected at all times.

Technical Security Measures

  • 256-bit SSL/TLS Encryption: All data transmitted between your device and rtf8 servers is encrypted using banking-grade security protocols.
  • Data encryption at rest: Sensitive data stored in our databases, including financial information and identity documents, is fully encrypted.
  • Two-factor authentication (2FA): Additional security layers are available for all user accounts to prevent unauthorized access.
  • 24/7 Monitoring: Our automated monitoring system detects and responds to any suspicious activity in real time.
  • Network isolation: Databases containing sensitive information are isolated from public networks using a layered security architecture.

Data Retention Period

Rtf8 retains users' personal data for as long as the account is active or for as long as necessary to fulfil legal obligations. Financial transaction records are kept for a minimum of 7 years in line with Malaysia's legal requirements. Once an account is closed and there are no remaining legal obligations, data will be securely deleted or anonymised.

rtf8 systems are regularly audited by a recognised independent cybersecurity firm to ensure all data protection measures consistently meet the latest industry standards.
