GK9 Official Privacy Document
GK9 takes the privacy of every Malaysian player seriously. This document clearly explains how we collect, use, store and protect your personal information — so you can play with complete peace of mind.
Six core principles that shape how GK9 handles your data
All communications between your device and GK9's servers are protected by 256-bit SSL encryption — the same security standard used by Malaysian banking institutions. Your data is never transmitted in a form that can be read by any third party while in transit.
GK9 does not sell, rent or trade players' personal data to any third party for marketing purposes. Your information belongs to you — we use it solely to operate your account and process your transactions.
All player data is stored on servers protected by multiple layers of security, including firewalls, role-based access controls and 24-hour monitoring. Access to player data is strictly limited to staff who require it for operational duties.
GK9 does not directly store your eWallet account numbers, bank card details, or banking information in our systems. All transactions via Touch 'n Go, GrabPay, DuitNow, and FPX are processed by third-party payment gateways that comply with PCI DSS standards.
You have the right to request a copy of the personal data we hold about you at any time. If any information is inaccurate, you may request a correction and GK9 will update it within 5 business days from the date the request is received.
You may opt out of receiving promotional emails, SMS notifications, or other marketing communications from GK9 at any time via your account settings or by contacting our support team. Your preference will take effect within 48 hours.
Important Note: This Privacy Policy outlines GK9's practices regarding players' personal data. By registering for and using the GK9 platform, you agree to the terms set out in this document. If you have any questions about your privacy, please contact the GK9 support team at support@gk9.cash before registering.
