These cookies are strictly necessary for the website to function. They enable core features such as secure log-in, session management, and payment processing. You cannot opt out of essential cookies without affecting how the website operates.

5.2 Analytical Cookies

We use analytical cookies to understand how visitors interact with the platform — which pages are visited most, how long sessions last, and where users encounter difficulties. This information helps us improve the overall experience. Tools such as Google Analytics may be used, with data anonymised where possible.

Me88 Casino does not sell your personal information to third parties. We share user data only where necessary and with appropriate safeguards in place. Recipients of your data may include:

6.1 Payment Providers

We share relevant financial personal data with payment processors such as providers of PayID, Visa, Mastercard, Skrill, Neteller, Paysafecard, Neosurf, and cryptocurrency networks (Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin) to facilitate deposits and withdrawals. These providers operate under their own privacy and data security frameworks.

6.2 Regulatory Authorities

Where required by law, we disclose personal information to government bodies, law enforcement agencies, anti-money laundering (AML) authorities, and other regulators. This includes obligations under the Australian Privacy Act 1988 and international AML/KYC frameworks.

We work with trusted third-party technology providers — including game suppliers such as Pragmatic Play, Evolution Gaming, Play'n GO, NetEnt, Microgaming, Yggdrasil, Hacksaw Gaming, Push Gaming, Spribe, Red Tiger, Nolimit City, and Relax Gaming — as well as hosting providers, identity verification agencies, and customer support platforms. All partners are contractually required to maintain appropriate data protection standards consistent with this privacy policy.

6.4 Corporate Transactions

In the event of a merger, acquisition, or business restructuring, your personal data may be transferred to the successor entity, subject to equivalent privacy protections and notification to you as required by law.

8. Data Security Measures

Me88 Casino data security is built on multiple layers of technical and organisational measures designed to protect your personal information from unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. Key security controls include:

  • 256-bit SSL/TLS encryption: All data transmitted between your browser or device and our servers is encrypted using industry-standard 256-bit SSL/TLS protocols, ensuring that your personal data cannot be intercepted in transit.
  • Firewalls and intrusion detection: Our infrastructure is protected by enterprise-grade firewalls and continuous intrusion detection systems that monitor for suspicious activity around the clock.
  • Data encryption at rest: Sensitive personal information, including financial data and identification documents, is encrypted when stored on our servers.
  • Access controls: Only authorised personnel with a legitimate operational need can access personal data, and all such access is logged and audited.
  • RNG certification: Our game engines are certified by independent laboratories to ensure fair play, further supporting the overall information security and integrity of our platform.
  • KYC verification: Mandatory Know Your Customer (KYC) checks before the first withdrawal protect both our players and the platform from fraud and identity theft.

While we employ robust data security measures, no system can guarantee absolute security. In the unlikely event of a data breach that poses a risk to your rights and freedoms, we will notify you and the relevant supervisory authorities in accordance with applicable law.

9. Data Retention Periods

We retain your personal data only for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by law. The table below provides a general overview of our data storage retention periods:

Category of Data Typical Retention Period Reason
Account and identification data Duration of account + 5 years after closure Legal and AML/KYC obligations
Financial transaction records 7 years from transaction date Tax and AML compliance
Gaming activity logs 5 years from last activity Regulatory requirements and dispute resolution
Communication and support records 3 years from last interaction Legitimate interests / legal claims
Marketing consent records Until consent is withdrawn + 3 years Proof of consent / legal compliance
Technical and log data Up to 12 months Security monitoring and analytics

After the applicable retention period, your personal data is securely deleted or anonymised so that it can no longer be associated with you.

10. Your Privacy Rights

As an Australian player, you are entitled to a comprehensive set of privacy rights under the Australian Privacy Act 1988 and the Australian Privacy Principles. Where GDPR applies, additional rights may also be available. Me88 Casino is committed to honouring these rights promptly and transparently. Your privacy rights include:

10.1 Right of Access

You have the right to request a copy of the personal information we hold about you. We will respond to access requests within 30 days. In certain exceptional circumstances, we may need to decline access where permitted by law, but we will explain our reasons clearly.

10.2 Right to Correction

If you believe that any personal data we hold about you is inaccurate, incomplete, or out of date, you may request that we correct it. You can update many details directly through your Me88 Casino account settings, or by contacting us at [email protected].

10.3 Right to Deletion (Right to Be Forgotten)

You may request the deletion of your personal data where it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, where you have withdrawn consent (where consent is the legal basis), or where processing is unlawful. Please note that we may retain certain data where required by law (for example, AML records).

10.4 Right to Restriction of Processing

You may request that we restrict the data processing of your personal information in certain circumstances — for example, while we investigate a dispute about accuracy or where you have objected to processing.

10.5 Right to Data Portability

Where processing is based on your consent or on a contract, and is carried out by automated means, you have the right to receive your personal data in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format, and to request that we transmit it to another data controller where technically feasible.

10.6 Right to Object

You may object to the data processing of your personal information where we rely on legitimate interests as our legal basis. You also have an unconditional right to object to processing for direct marketing purposes at any time, at which point we will cease using your data for those purposes.

10.7 Right to Withdraw Consent

Where our data processing activities are based on your consent (for example, for marketing communications or certain cookies), you may withdraw that consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before the withdrawal. To do so, contact us at [email protected] or use the unsubscribe link in any marketing email.

To exercise any of your privacy rights, please submit a written request to our Data Protection Officer at [email protected]. We will respond within 30 days. We may ask you to verify your identity before processing your request to ensure the security of your personal information.

11. Supervisory Authority — OAIC

If you are not satisfied with our response to a privacy complaint or believe that Me88 Casino has not adequately addressed your concerns, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC), which is the supervisory authority for data protection matters in Australia.

  • Website: www.oaic.gov.au

We encourage you to contact us directly in the first instance, as we are committed to resolving all privacy concerns quickly and fairly.

12. Responsible Gambling and Your Data

Me88 Casino takes data collection in the context of responsible gambling seriously.

Responsible gambling tools available at Me88 Casino include:

  • Deposit, bet, and loss limits
  • Session time limits
  • Cooling-off periods (24 hours, 48 hours, 7 days, or 30 days)
  • Self-exclusion options (6 months, 1 year, 5 years, or permanent)

Personal data collected in connection with responsible gambling tools is processed on the basis of legal obligation and contract performance, and is retained in accordance with the retention schedule set out in Section 9 above. This data is treated with the highest degree of confidentiality.

13. Children's Privacy

Me88 Casino does not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under the age of 18. Our platform is strictly for adults, and we employ age verification measures as part of our KYC process to prevent underage access. If we become aware that a minor has provided us with personal information, we will take immediate steps to delete that data and close the associated account.

14. Updates to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Me88 Casino privacy policy periodically to reflect changes in our data processing practices, legal obligations, or regulatory requirements. When we make material changes, we will notify you by email or by posting a prominent notice on our website. The date at the top of this page indicates when the policy was last revised. We encourage you to review this privacy policy regularly to stay informed about how we protect your personal data. Continued use of Me88 Casino following notification of changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
