Privacy Policy padu44 – Our Commitment to Protecting Your Data

1 Introduction & Scope of Privacy Policy

Padu44 values the privacy of every individual who interacts with our platform. As an online gaming platform operating in Malaysia, we are bound by the Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA) 2010 and committed to ensuring all information you provide is handled with full integrity and transparency.

This Privacy Policy clearly outlines the types of data we collect, why we need it, how we use it, and the rights you hold as a data subject. By continuing to use the padu44 platform, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this policy.

This policy covers all services offered by padu44, including the official website at padu44.onl, the padu44 mobile app, customer support, promotional programmes and any communications we send to you.

2 Personal Data We Collect

We collect your information through several methods — directly from you during registration, automatically as you use the platform, and occasionally from trusted third-party sources for verification purposes.

Information You Provide Directly

• Identity information: Full name, date of birth, national ID or passport number.
• Contact information: Email address, mobile number and residential address.
• Financial information: Bank account number, bank name, and e-wallet details registered for deposit and withdrawal purposes.

• Location data: General location based on IP address for regional restriction compliance purposes.
• Transaction data: A complete record of all deposits, withdrawals, and wagering activity in your account.

3 How We Use Your Personal Data

Every piece of data we collect has a clear and legitimate purpose. We do not use your data for any purpose not stated in this policy without obtaining your consent first.

• Identity verification & KYC: Ensuring every member is a real individual who meets the platform's eligibility requirements, including the minimum age requirement of 18 years.
• Transaction processing: Process deposits, withdrawals, and any fund transfers efficiently and securely.
• Account management: Manage member profiles, game preferences, transaction history, and bonus eligibility.
• Customer support: Handle inquiries, complaints, and technical support requests effectively.
• Security & fraud prevention: Detect suspicious activity, protect accounts from unauthorized access, and prevent money laundering.
• Legal compliance: Meet the reporting and record-keeping requirements set by the relevant authorities in Malaysia.
• Platform improvements: Analyze aggregated usage data to improve the user experience, game performance, and platform interface.
• Marketing communications: Send promotional offers, bonus information, and platform updates — only if you have opted in to receive it.

4 Information Sharing & Disclosure

Padu44 does not sell or rent your personal data to any external party. However, there are limited situations where we need to share certain information with selected third parties:

• Payment service providers: Financial institutions and payment processors such as banks and e-wallet providers that facilitate your transactions, subject to strict confidentiality agreements.
• Technology service providers: Companies that help us manage IT infrastructure, server hosting, and cybersecurity — all bound by robust data protection agreements.
• Identity verification providers: Third-party KYC services that help us verify member identities securely and efficiently.
• Legal authorities: Where required by court order, law enforcement agency investigation, or regulatory compliance obligations.
• Business transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition or asset transfer, your data may be transferred to the successor entity, and you will be notified in advance.

5 Data Retention Period

Padu44 retains your personal data only for as long as necessary for the stated purposes or as required by Malaysian law. The following are our general data retention guidelines:

Once the retention period expires, your data will be securely deleted or anonymised so it can no longer be linked back to your identity.

Padu44 uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your experience on our platform. Cookies are small text files stored in your browser when you visit our website.
