1. Introduction & Scope of This Policy
Welcome to the niatogel Privacy Policy page. This policy is our written commitment to you as a platform user, clearly and transparently explaining how we handle the information you entrust to us when using niatogel's services.
When you register, log in, or use any service on the niatogel platform, you are providing us with certain information. We recognise that privacy is a fundamental right of every individual, and we take this responsibility seriously — not merely to meet legal requirements, but because we genuinely care about the security of your data.
This policy applies to all niatogel platform users regardless of access method — whether via web browser, Android or iOS mobile app, or any other access method we provide in the future.
Legal Basis
Niatogel's processing of personal data is based on contractual necessity (to provide the services you request), legal obligation (KYC and AML compliance), our legitimate interests (platform security), and your consent where required.
2. Types of Personal Data We Collect
Niatogel only collects personal data that is strictly necessary to provide the services you request and to fulfil our legal obligations. Below is a summary of the types of data we collect:
| Data Category | Example Information | Requirements |

Sensitive Data
Niatogel does not collect sensitive data such as health information, religious beliefs, or political views. If you voluntarily disclose such information in communications with us, we will not retain it unless required by law.
3. How We Collect Your Data
Your personal data is collected through several different channels, and we want you to clearly understand each one:
- During account registration — You provide your name, email, phone number, and password directly when registering a niatogel account for the first time.
- During the KYC process — Identity documents such as MyKad and proof of address are collected during the mandatory identity verification process before your first withdrawal.
- During financial transactions — Bank account or e-wallet details are collected when you make a deposit or withdrawal request to facilitate the payment process.
- Automatically via technology — Cookies, web pixels, and other tracking technologies automatically collect technical data such as IP address, device type, and usage patterns as you browse our platform.
- During customer support interactions — Live chat and email conversation records are retained for quality control purposes and to help us resolve any issues that may arise in the future.
4. Purpose of Using Your Personal Data
Every piece of data we collect has a clear and lawful purpose. We do not use your data for any purpose not stated here:
- Processing account registration and verifying your identity through KYC procedures required under anti-money laundering laws.
- Processing deposits and withdrawals securely and accurately to your registered account.
- Detecting suspicious activity and protecting your account from unauthorised access or fraud.
- Providing personalised and effective customer support by understanding your interaction history with the platform.
- Sending important account notifications such as transaction confirmations, security alerts, and critical terms updates.
- Improving our platform based on anonymised aggregate usage patterns to deliver a better experience for all players.
- Sending promotional information and special offers — but only with your consent, and you can opt out at any time.
5. Data Sharing with Third Parties
Niatogel does not sell or commercialise your personal data. However, there are limited situations where we need to share your data with carefully selected third parties:
- Payment processors — Payment service providers such as banks and e-wallet operators receive the transaction information necessary to process your deposits and withdrawals.
- KYC service providers — Trusted third-party identity verification companies assist us in securely processing and verifying your identity documents.
- Technology infrastructure — Cloud computing and server hosting providers that store your data are bound by strict confidentiality and data protection agreements.
- Competent authorities — Information may be disclosed to the police, courts, or government agencies when required by a court order or applicable Malaysian law.
Protection in Sharing
All third parties with whom we share data are bound by data processing agreements that require them to protect your data to the same rigorous standards we uphold ourselves.
6. Data Security Measures
We implement a range of technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data from unauthorised access, loss, or misuse:
- 256-bit SSL encryption for all data transmitted between your browser and niatogel's servers, ensuring your data cannot be read in transit.
- Passwords are hashed using modern cryptographic algorithms — your password is never stored in plain text and even our own staff cannot view it.
- Role-based access control ensures only staff with a legitimate need can access players' personal data.
- Regular penetration testing by independent cybersecurity firms to identify and close any vulnerabilities before they can be exploited.
- A 24/7 security monitoring system that detects and alerts on any suspicious activity or unauthorised access attempts in real time.
- Secure data backups and a disaster recovery plan to ensure your data is never lost, even in unexpected scenarios.
7. Data Retention Period
Niatogel does not retain your personal data longer than necessary. Retention periods vary based on data type and applicable legal requirements:
- Active account data — Retained for the duration of your active account and for a minimum of 7 years after account closure to meet Malaysia's financial regulatory requirements.
- Financial transaction records — Retained for a minimum of 7 years in compliance with the Anti-Money Laundering, Anti-Terrorism Financing and Proceeds of Unlawful Activities Act 2001.
- KYC Documents — Retained for the duration of the active account and for at least 5 years after account closure or the date of the last transaction, whichever is longer.
- Support communication logs — Retained for 2 years from the date of interaction for quality control purposes and to assist in resolving any disputes that may arise.
- Technical analytics data — De-identified and aggregated data is retained indefinitely for platform improvement purposes. Data that can identify an individual is deleted within 12 months.
