If we engage marketing partners, they act as data processors under our instructions and are prohibited from using your data independently.

Minors & Age Protection
The AFB88 Platform is strictly intended for individuals who are 21 years of age or older. We do not knowingly collect, process, or store Personal Data belonging to individuals under 21 years of age.
During the registration process, all users are required to declare that they are at least 21 years of age and to submit date-of-birth information that is subject to verification. Where AFB88 has reason to believe that Personal Data has been provided by an individual under 21 — whether through our automated checks, KYC review, or a third-party report — we will take the following steps without delay:
- Immediately suspend the associated account pending investigation;
- Void all bets and gaming activity associated with the account;
- Delete all Personal Data associated with the account within 30 days, except where legal retention obligations apply;
- Refund any real-money deposits made to the account where fraud was not involved.
Parental Advisory: If you are a parent or guardian and believe that a minor in your care has registered or attempted to use the AFB88 Platform, please contact us immediately at [email protected]. We treat underage gambling protection as a top-priority child safety concern. We also recommend that parents and guardians install appropriate parental control software on shared devices.
International Data Transfers
As an internationally licensed gaming operator, AFB88 may transfer certain Personal Data to countries outside Malaysia for processing by our service providers — for example, cloud hosting infrastructure, identity verification platforms, or fraud detection systems that operate internationally.
Where Personal Data is transferred outside Malaysia to jurisdictions that may not offer an equivalent level of data protection, AFB88 will ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place prior to the transfer. These safeguards may include:
- Standard contractual clauses (SCCs) approved by relevant data protection authorities;
- Data processing agreements that impose equivalent data protection obligations on the receiving party;
- Transfers to jurisdictions recognised as providing adequate data protection under applicable frameworks.
For further information regarding the safeguards applied to international data transfers from AFB88, please contact us at [email protected].
Amendments to This Policy
AFB88 reserves the right to update or modify this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in our data processing practices, applicable law, or regulatory requirements. Where changes are material — meaning they significantly affect how we collect, use, or share your Personal Data — we will provide advance notice through one or more of the following channels:
- A prominent notice on the AFB88 homepage or Platform;
- An email notification to your registered email address at least 14 days before the changes take effect;
