12 International Data Transfers
change88 operates under international licensing and may store or process your personal data in countries outside of Malaysia. In particular, our server infrastructure, KYC service providers, and certain game content providers may be located in jurisdictions with different data protection laws from those in force in Malaysia.
Where personal data is transferred internationally, change88 takes the following measures to ensure appropriate protection:
- Transfers to service providers are governed by data processing agreements that impose obligations equivalent to applicable data protection standards.
- We conduct due diligence on all international processors to assess their security practices and data protection compliance prior to engagement.
- Where a transfer involves a jurisdiction that does not provide an adequate level of data protection, we implement appropriate contractual safeguards.

The change88 Platform may contain references to or integrations with third-party services, including payment providers and game content platforms. This Policy applies solely to personal data collected and processed by change88. It does not extend to the data practices of third-party service providers operating their own platforms.
When you interact with a third-party payment gateway — such as initiating a DuitNow transfer, FPX payment, or Touch 'n Go eWallet transaction — you are subject to that provider's own privacy policy in respect of data processed by them. change88 is not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party service providers.
We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party services you interact with in connection with your use of change88.

For minor amendments (such as clarifications or typographical corrections), the updated Policy will be published without advance notice. Continued use of the Platform following any amendment constitutes your acceptance of the revised Policy. If you do not agree with an amendment, you should cease using the Platform and may request Account closure in accordance with the Terms & Conditions.
