Main24 Privacy Policy – Personal Data Protection for Malaysian Members

Main24 takes every member's privacy seriously. This Privacy Policy explains clearly and transparently how we collect, use, store, and protect your personal information — written in plain language, not convoluted legal jargon.

🛡️ main24 Data Protection Commitment

Six core principles that underpin how main24 protects your personal information

Full 256-bit SSL Encryption

All data transmitted between your device and main24's servers is protected with 256-bit SSL encryption — the same level of security used by major Malaysian banks such as Maybank and CIMB. This means your information cannot be intercepted or read by any third party while in transit.

No Sale of Data to Third Parties

Main24 has never sold, lent, or rented member personal information to any third party for marketing or commercial purposes, and never will. Your data belongs to you — main24 holds it only in trust to enable you to use the platform safely.

Full Control in Your Hands

Every main24 member has the full right to access, update, correct, or request deletion of their personal data at any time. The process is straightforward — contact the main24 support team and your request will be processed within 14 business days, no unreasonable questions asked.

Centralised & Secure Data Storage

All main24 member personal data is stored in data centres equipped with multi-layered physical and digital security controls. Database access is strictly limited to personnel with a legitimate need, and every access is logged for security audit purposes.

Data Breach Notification

In the event of a security incident that may affect your personal data, main24 is committed to notifying affected members within 72 hours of confirming the incident. We will also take immediate steps to contain and remediate the situation.

Malaysia PDPA Compliance

The main24 Privacy Policy is established in accordance with the requirements of Malaysia's Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA). We fully comply with all PDPA principles across every aspect of member personal data processing, ensuring you are protected under Malaysia's existing legal framework.

This Privacy Policy applies to all members and users of the main24 platform, including the main24.best website and our mobile application. By registering for or using the main24 platform, you agree to the processing of your personal data as described in this policy. For any enquiries, contact us at support@main24.best.

1. Personal Information We Collect

Main24 collects your personal information in specific situations when you interact with our platform. We only collect what is genuinely necessary to provide you with a safe, efficient, and responsible service.

3. Sharing Information with Third Parties

Main24 does not sell, lend, or disclose members' personal information to third parties for marketing or commercial purposes. However, there are limited situations where main24 needs to share certain information with the following trusted parties, solely to enable the platform to operate:

Approved Service Providers

Main24 works with carefully selected third-party service providers to handle certain platform functions, including:

  • Payment Gateway Providers: Touch 'n Go eWallet, GrabPay, DuitNow, FPX Maybank2u, CIMB Clicks, Boost, and ShopeePay providers receive the transaction information required to process your deposits and withdrawals. These providers maintain their own privacy policies and security measures.
  • Game Providers: Game providers such as Pragmatic Play, Microgaming, NetEnt, Evolution Gaming, and Playtech receive the session data required to run games and verify results. No personally identifiable information is shared, other than anonymised session IDs.
  • Identity Verification Services: Third-party KYC providers used to verify member identity documents during the KYC process. All such providers are bound by strict confidentiality agreements with main24.
  • Analytics Services (Anonymised Data): Analytics platforms are used to understand website usage patterns for improvement purposes — only fully anonymised data is shared.
Mandatory Disclosure Required by Law

Main24 may be required to disclose member personal information to Malaysian authorities in the following circumstances:

  • Upon lawful request from authorities such as the police, courts, or Malaysian enforcement agencies, pursuant to a valid writ, summons, or court order.
  • To comply with reporting requirements under Malaysia's anti-money laundering (AML) legislation.
  • To prevent fraud, identity theft, or serious security threats against members or the platform.

In all instances of data sharing with third parties, main24 ensures that only the minimum necessary information is disclosed, and all receiving parties are bound by confidentiality obligations equivalent to main24's own data protection standards.

4. Data Security Measures at main24

Protecting member personal data is a top priority for main24. We continuously invest in the latest security infrastructure to ensure your information remains protected against evolving cyber threats.

Technical Security Layers
  • Data Encryption in Transit: All communications between your browser or app and main24's servers are protected with TLS 1.3 protocol and AES-256 encryption — the highest security standards commercially available.
  • Stored Data Encryption: Sensitive data stored in main24's databases, including passwords and financial information, is encrypted using strong cryptographic algorithms. Your password is never stored in plain text.
  • Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): All members are encouraged and able to enable 2FA for an additional layer of protection against unauthorised access to their accounts.
  • Continuous Threat Monitoring: main24's security systems monitor all platform activity in real time to detect and respond to suspicious activity or intrusion attempts.
  • Regular Security Audits: main24 undergoes penetration testing and security audits by independent cybersecurity firms at least twice a year.
Internal Access Controls

Access to member personal data within main24 is strictly limited on a need-to-know basis. Only staff with a legitimate operational need are permitted to access specific data, and all access is logged and monitored. All main24 personnel who handle personal data are required to sign binding confidentiality agreements and undergo regular data protection training.

While main24 takes all reasonable steps to protect your data, no security system can be guaranteed 100% secure. We encourage members to play their part in keeping their accounts safe — use a strong password, enable 2FA, and never share your login credentials with anyone.

5. Cookies & Tracking Technologies

Main24 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 main24 website.

Types of Cookies Used
  • Essential Cookies (Required): Required for core platform functionality — including maintaining your login session, recognising your device during an active session, and ensuring basic platform security. These cookies cannot be disabled without affecting platform functionality.
  • Functional Cookies: Remembering your preferences and settings, such as your preferred language, display theme, and other account settings. These cookies improve usability but are not required for core functionality.
  • Analytics Cookies (Anonymised): Helps main24 understand how members use the platform — the most frequently visited pages, navigation flows, and areas that may need improvement. Data collected through analytics cookies is anonymised and not linked to your personal identity.
  • Security Cookies: Used by main24's fraud detection system to identify unusual or suspicious access patterns that may indicate an attempted account breach.
Managing Your Cookies

You can control and manage cookies through your web browser settings. Most modern browsers — including Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Edge — allow you to view, delete, or block cookies. However, please be aware that disabling essential cookies may affect the functionality of the main24 platform and disrupt your gaming experience. For guidance on managing cookies in your specific browser, refer to that browser's support documentation.

6. Your Rights as a main24 Member

Under Malaysia's Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA) and international data protection principles, every main24 member has the following rights regarding their personal data:

Right of Access

You have the right to request a copy of all personal data that main24 holds about you. We will provide this information in a readily readable format within 14 business days of your request.

Right to Rectification

If any personal information that main24 holds about you is inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to request a correction. Routine updates can be made directly from your account profile settings.

Right to Erasure

You may request the deletion of your personal data. Please note that this right is subject to our legal obligation to retain certain financial records for periods prescribed under Malaysian law.

Right to Object

You have the right to object to the processing of your personal data for direct marketing purposes at any time. Once your objection is received, we will immediately cease using your data for that purpose.

Right to Restrict Processing

In certain circumstances, you may request that main24 restrict how it uses your data — for example, when the accuracy of your data is disputed or while a complaint investigation is in progress.

Right to Data Portability

You have the right to receive your personal data in a structured, portable format (such as CSV or JSON), allowing you to transfer it to another service provider should you choose to do so.

To exercise any of the above rights, contact the main24 support team via live chat or email at support@main24.best by stating the right you wish to exercise along with your account details for verification. All requests will be processed within 14 business days and we will keep you updated on the progress of your request.

7. Personal Data Retention Period

Main24 retains member personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected, or for as long as required under applicable Malaysian law — whichever is longer. The following are general data retention guidelines:

  • Active Account Data: For as long as your account remains active and throughout the duration of your service relationship with main24.
  • Financial Transaction Records: A minimum of 7 years from the transaction date, in line with Malaysian tax and financial audit regulatory requirements.
  • KYC and Identity Verification Records: A minimum of 5 years following account closure, in accordance with Malaysia's anti-money laundering (AML) legal requirements.
  • Support Communication Records: 3 years from the date of the communication, for reference and future complaint resolution purposes.
  • Security Log Data: 2 years from the date the log was recorded, for the purpose of investigating any security incidents that may arise.
  • Anonymised Analytics Data: No time limit — data that has been fully anonymised is no longer considered personal data and may be retained indefinitely for long-term analytics purposes.

Once the relevant retention period has elapsed, main24 will delete or anonymise your personal data in a secure and permanent manner. Should you close your main24 account, the data deletion process will be initiated in accordance with the schedule above, subject to any legal requirements mandating longer retention.

If you have questions about the specific retention period for a particular category of information, or would like to know when your data will be deleted, please contact the main24 support team and we will provide accurate information based on your account situation.

Why Does Data Privacy Matter for Online Betting Platform Users in Malaysia?

When you use an online betting platform like main24, you naturally share more sensitive information than you would when shopping on a typical e-commerce site. This goes beyond just your name and email — it includes financial information related to deposits via Touch 'n Go eWallet or FPX Maybank2u, your personal patterns of entertainment activity, and in the case of KYC, your most sensitive identity documents.

This is why main24 does not treat privacy protection as merely a legal compliance checkbox. It is a fundamental part of our commitment to every member — that the trust you place in us with your information will be handled with full responsibility and integrity.

The online betting industry has a mixed track record when it comes to user data protection. Some platforms have used member data for undisclosed purposes, sold email lists to advertisers, or worse — failed to adequately secure data, resulting in breaches that jeopardised their members' financial security.

Main24 sets itself apart from these irresponsible practices in concrete, verifiable ways. Our regular security audits are conducted by independent firms with no stake in the outcome. Our privacy policy is written in plain language that any everyday user can understand — not in deliberately convoluted legal jargon.

Shared Responsibility in Protecting Your main24 Account

While main24 takes all reasonable steps to protect your data on our end, account security is a shared responsibility. There are a few simple things you can do to keep your main24 account safe from external threats.

First and foremost, use a strong, unique password for your main24 account — one that is different from the passwords you use for email, social media, or any other platform. It is strongly recommended that you use a password manager to help you keep track of separate passwords across different accounts.

Next, enable two-factor authentication (2FA) on your main24 account. With 2FA active, even if someone obtains your password, they still cannot log in without also having access to your phone for the verification code. This is a highly effective layer of protection against most common cyber attacks.

Be vigilant against phishing attempts — messages or emails claiming to be from main24 that are actually designed to steal your login credentials. main24 will never ask for your password or PIN via email or chat. If you receive any such request, do not respond and report it to the main24 support team immediately.

Finally, review your main24 account activity regularly. If you notice any transactions or activity you do not recognise, contact main24 support immediately. Early detection is key to minimising any damage from unauthorised access.

❓ FAQ – main24 Privacy Policy

Answers to the most frequently asked questions from members about how main24 handles personal data

No. main24 does not store credit card numbers or bank account details directly in our systems. When you make a deposit via FPX Maybank2u, CIMB Clicks, or other payment methods, the transaction is processed directly through a certified payment gateway. main24 only receives confirmation that the transaction was successful and a record of the amount received — not your actual financial account details. This means your most sensitive financial data never enters main24's systems.

Yes, you may request the deletion of your personal data after closing your main24 account. However, please note that this right to erasure is subject to our legal obligations. Financial and transaction records must be retained for a minimum of 7 years under Malaysian legal requirements, while KYC records must be kept for at least 5 years under anti-money laundering legislation. Data subject to these mandatory retention requirements cannot be deleted early, but access to it is strictly limited and solely for legal compliance purposes.

main24 may use information about the types of games you enjoy to personalise the promotions and offers sent to you — for example, if you frequently play jackpot slots, we may send you information about relevant jackpot promotions. This is only done with your consent and for the purpose of making our communications more useful to you, not to sell or share with external advertisers. You can opt out of any marketing communications from main24 at any time by contacting our support team.

In the unlikely event that main24 ceases operations, the protection of members' personal data will remain a top priority. Depending on the nature of the closure, data may be transferred to a successor entity or securely deleted in accordance with established protocols. In all cases, main24 will provide advance notice to all registered members via email outlining the steps to be taken regarding their data, giving members sufficient time to make informed decisions about their accounts.

In the event of a security incident that may affect your personal data, main24 is committed to notifying you directly within 72 hours of confirming the incident. Notification will be sent to your registered email address and may also be delivered via in-platform alerts. The notification will describe the type of data potentially affected, the steps main24 has taken to contain the incident, and the actions you should take to protect yourself. In addition to waiting for notification from main24, you are also encouraged to monitor your financial statements regularly.

Yes, main24 support chat records are retained for 3 years from the date of the conversation. This is done for several important purposes — enabling different support agents to understand the context of your issue if you contact us again, assisting in the resolution of future complaints or disputes, and for training and service quality improvement purposes. Chat records are not shared with any external parties and access is restricted solely to relevant main24 support staff. You may request a copy of your chat records at any time.
