Introduction – SurgaPlay's Commitment to Your Privacy

SurgaPlay takes the privacy of your personal data very seriously. As a digital entertainment and online betting platform built exclusively for Malaysian users, we understand that your trust is the most valuable asset we have. Without it, nothing else matters.

This Privacy Policy is written in plain, straightforward English – not confusing legal jargon – so you genuinely understand what happens with your information. We are not fans of fine print that buries the important stuff, which is exactly why this document is made to be as clear as possible.

SurgaPlay operates in accordance and compliance with Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA) Malaysia in its entirety. This is not merely a legal obligation – it is a core value that guides every data-related decision we make, every day.

This Privacy Policy should be read together with Terms & Conditions and Responsible Gaming Policy SurgaPlay, which together constitute the entire agreement between you and our platform.

Data Security – How We Protect Your Information

We invest heavily in security infrastructure to ensure your data is protected to the highest practical standard. The following are the security layers we have in place:

  • 256-bit SSL/TLS Encryption: All data transmitted between your browser/app and SurgaPlay's servers is encrypted using the same standard employed by Malaysia's leading banks, including Maybank and CIMB.
  • Data Encryption at Rest: Sensitive data stored in our databases is encrypted using AES-256, including identity information and financial records.
  • Password Hash: Your password is never stored in plain text. We use the bcrypt algorithm with a unique salt for every user.
  • Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): Available free of charge to all SurgaPlay members as an added layer of security.
  • 24/7 Monitoring: Intrusion detection and active threat monitoring systems operate around the clock.
  • Regular Security Audits: Penetration testing and security audits are conducted regularly by independent third parties.
  • Internal Access Controls: SurgaPlay staff only have access to the data needed to perform their specific duties – the principle of least privilege is fully applied.
Data Breach Notice: In the event of any security breach that materially affects your personal data, SurgaPlay is committed to notifying you within 72 hours of the breach being identified, in line with industry best practices.

Data Retention & Deletion Period

SurgaPlay does not store your data indefinitely. We have a clear data retention policy based on the original purpose of collection and applicable legal requirements:

Data Type Retention Period Reason
Active account records For the duration of the active account Service operational requirements
Financial Transaction Records (MYR) 7 years after the transaction Malaysia PDPA compliance & financial audit requirements
Security logs 2 years Fraud investigation and security
Support communication records 3 years Dispute resolution and quality improvement
KYC data (identity verification) 5 years after account closure Anti-money laundering (AML) compliance requirements
Marketing data (where permitted) Until you unsubscribe Consent that can be withdrawn at any time

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