At cyl8, your privacy is more than a legal obligation — it is a core value we have upheld since the day this platform launched. This Privacy Policy explains transparently how cyl8 collects, uses, stores, and protects your personal data as a member of Malaysia's trusted online Live Casino and Sports Betting platform.
Our Commitment
These principles guide every decision we make regarding the personal data of cyl8 members in Malaysia.
Your personal data at cyl8 is never sold, rented, or shared with any third party for commercial purposes without your explicit consent. This is not merely a policy — it is a core principle we have never compromised on since the platform launched in 2019.
All personal and financial data belonging to cyl8 members is protected by 256-bit SSL encryption — the same security technology used by banking institutions and Malaysian government agencies. Every transaction made via Touch 'n Go eWallet, GrabPay, DuitNow, or FPX is processed within a fully encrypted environment.
Cyl8 collects only the data genuinely necessary to deliver its platform services and meet legal requirements. We do not collect data that is irrelevant or excessive. Every category of data collected has a clearly defined purpose, as documented in this policy.
As a cyl8 member, you have the right to access, correct, transfer, or request the deletion of your personal data at any time. The process for exercising these rights is straightforward, and we are committed to responding within the timeframe prescribed by data protection law.
This Privacy Policy is written in plain, straightforward language that any everyday Malaysian user can understand — not in confusing legalese. We believe you have the right to know exactly what happens to your data, and we are committed to keeping you informed of any significant changes that affect your privacy.
Cyl8's handling of personal data complies with Malaysia's Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA) and all applicable related regulations. This means you are protected by a local legal framework specifically designed to safeguard the privacy rights of Malaysians.
Important Note: This Privacy Policy describes how cyl8 handles personal data. By registering and using the cyl8 platform, you agree to the collection and use of your personal data as described in this policy. Please read it carefully and contact us at support@cyl8.xyz if you have any questions.
This Privacy Policy is issued by cyl8 ("we", "the platform") and applies to all registered members and visitors of cyl8.xyz and all related services operated under the cyl8 brand. This Policy clearly explains how we collect, process, store, protect, and share your personal data in the context of your use of our live casino, Sports Betting, e-sports, poker, and all other online entertainment services we offer to Malaysian players.
Cyl8 takes its responsibilities as a data controller seriously. We understand that your trust in how we handle your personal data is the foundation of the long-term relationship we aim to build with Malaysia's player community. Every decision involving personal data is therefore made with your interests and privacy rights as the top priority.
This policy complies with Malaysia's Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA). In the event of any conflict between this policy and the provisions of the PDPA, the PDPA shall prevail.

Cyl8 uses collected personal data solely for legitimate and transparent purposes. The following are the primary purposes for which member personal data is used:
Marketing: cyl8 may use your data to send promotional offers and information about new services that may be of interest to you. You can opt out of marketing communications at any time by updating your notification settings in your account or by contacting support@cyl8.xyz.
Cyl8 does not sell or rent your personal data to any third party for their own commercial purposes. However, in the course of operating the platform, cyl8 may share your personal data with a limited set of third-party categories as outlined below, and only to the extent necessary:
All third parties we engage are required to handle your personal data with a level of protection at least equivalent to our own standards, and may only use it for the specific authorised purposes.
Protecting your personal data from unauthorised access, loss, misuse, or disclosure is cyl8's highest priority. We implement multiple layers of comprehensive technical and organisational security controls:
In the Event of a Security Incident: In the event of any data breach that materially affects your personal information, cyl8 is committed to notifying you within the timeframe prescribed by law via your registered email address. A report will also be submitted to the Department of Personal Data Protection Malaysia where required under the PDPA 2010.
Cyl8 retains your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the original purpose for which it was collected, or as required by Malaysian law. Our data retention guidelines are as follows:
Cyl8 uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your experience on our platform. Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit the cyl8 website. The categories of cookies we use are as follows:
You can manage your cookie settings through your browser at any time. However, disabling essential cookies may affect core functions of the cyl8 platform — you may not be able to log in or use certain features.
When you access cyl8 via your Android or iOS smartphone, technical data such as device type, operating system version, and unique device identifiers is also collected for security and mobile experience optimisation purposes.
As a cyl8 member and data subject under Malaysia's PDPA, you have the following rights regarding the personal data we hold about you. We are committed to respecting and facilitating the exercise of these rights:
You have the right to request a copy of the personal data cyl8 holds about you. We will provide this information in a readable format within 21 days of receiving a valid request.
If you believe the personal data we hold about you is inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to request a correction. We will update our records promptly once verification has been completed.
In certain circumstances, you have the right to request the deletion of your personal data. This right is subject to our obligation to retain data in order to comply with legal requirements, such as the PDPA's financial record-keeping requirements.
You have the right to request that we restrict the processing of your personal data in certain circumstances — for example, while you are disputing the accuracy of your data or while an investigation into a dispute is ongoing.
You have the right to receive the personal data you have provided to us in a structured, machine-readable format, and to transfer it to another data controller where technically feasible.
Where the processing of your data is based on your consent, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the validity of any processing carried out prior to the withdrawal.
To exercise any of the rights above, contact us by email at support@cyl8.xyz, clearly stating the right you wish to exercise and providing sufficient information to verify your identity. We will respond within the timeframe prescribed by the PDPA and will not charge any fee for reasonable requests.
In operating the cyl8 platform and providing services to Malaysian members, some of your personal data may be processed or stored outside Malaysia — for example, by cloud service providers or international live casino studios that we work with.
When your personal data is transferred outside Malaysia, cyl8 ensures that adequate protections are in place through one or more of the following mechanisms:
Our Commitment: Regardless of where your data is physically processed, cyl8 remains the responsible data controller and you retain all rights set out in this Privacy Policy and under the Malaysian PDPA.
Cyl8's services are intended solely for individuals aged 18 and above. cyl8 does not knowingly collect, process, or store personal data from anyone under the age of 18.
If we discover that personal data from an individual under the age of 18 has been collected inadvertently, we will take immediate steps to delete that data and close the associated account. Parents or guardians who believe their child has provided personal data to cyl8 without their knowledge are urged to contact us immediately at support@cyl8.xyz.
Cyl8 reserves the right to update or amend this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our data processing practices, new legal requirements, or changes to the services we offer. The "Updated" date at the top of this page will always reflect the date of the most current version of this policy.
For material amendments — meaning changes that significantly affect how we process your personal data or impact your rights — cyl8 will provide you with clear notice via your registered email or a prominent in-platform notification at least 14 days before the changes take effect. This gives you sufficient time to review the updates and make an informed decision about your continued use of the cyl8 platform.
Your continued use of the cyl8 platform after any amendments take effect will be considered your acceptance of the revised Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with any amendment, you have the right to stop using the platform and close your account by contacting support@cyl8.xyz.
If you have any questions or concerns, or wish to exercise your rights regarding personal data held by cyl8, please contact our data protection officer via:
