Privacy Policy – Personal Data Protection for gomk8 Malaysia Members

Our Privacy Commitment

Gomk8's Six Data Protection Principles

Every decision regarding your data is grounded in these principles — not just as conditions we comply with, but as the way we operate.

Data Minimisation

Gomk8 only collects data that is strictly necessary to provide our services. We do not collect information about you that is irrelevant or excessive.

End-to-End Encryption

All personal data is stored with AES-256 encryption. Data in transit is protected by 256-bit SSL/TLS. No sensitive information is stored in plain-readable format.

Control in Your Hands

You have the full right to access, correct, or request the deletion of your personal data. Requests are processed within 14 business days.

No Data Sales

Gomk8 has never sold, rented, or leased your personal data to any third party for marketing or commercial purposes, and never will.

PDPA Compliance

All of gomk8's data handling practices comply with Malaysia's Personal Data Protection Act 2010 and guidelines issued by the Personal Data Protection Commissioner.

Limited Retention

Personal data is retained only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected. After that period, data is securely deleted or anonymised.

Introduction & Scope of Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy is published by gomk8 ("we", "the platform") and applies to all individuals who access the gomk8 website at gomk8.click, register a member account, carry out financial transactions in Ringgit Malaysia (RM), or use any services provided by our platform.

Gomk8 operates in compliance with the Malaysia Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA) and all related regulations issued from time to time by the Personal Data Protection Commissioner of Malaysia. We take our responsibilities as a data controller seriously and have implemented appropriate technical and organisational measures to safeguard your information.

Important Note: By using the gomk8 platform — including registering an account, making a deposit via Touch 'n Go, GrabPay, or DuitNow, or simply browsing our website — you consent to the collection and use of your personal data as described in this Privacy Policy.

This policy should be read alongside gomk8's Terms & Conditions, which together form your complete agreement with the platform. In the event of any conflict between the two documents, the Privacy Policy shall prevail on matters relating to the handling of personal data.
