PGKing Privacy Policy
At PGKing, protecting your personal data is not an afterthought — it is a foundational commitment. This Privacy Policy explains in plain, honest terms what information we collect, why we collect it, how we use it, who we share it with, and what rights you hold over your own data as a PGKing player.
A high-level overview of our key privacy commitments. The full legal text follows below and governs in all cases.
We collect only the data necessary to operate your account, process payments, verify your identity, and comply with our licensing obligations. We do not collect data we do not need.
All data is stored on encrypted servers with restricted access controls. Transmission between your device and PGKing is protected by 256-bit SSL/TLS encryption at all times.
Your data is never sold. We share it only with payment processors, KYC verification partners, and regulatory bodies where legally required. Every third party is contractually bound to our data standards.
You have the right to access, correct, export, or request deletion of your personal data at any time. Submit a data request to our support team and we will respond within 30 days.
We use essential cookies to keep you logged in and maintain session integrity, and analytics cookies to understand how the platform is used. You can manage non-essential cookies via your browser settings.
We will only send you promotional communications if you have opted in. You may withdraw consent at any time by contacting our support team or updating your account notification preferences.
Introduction
This Privacy Policy ("Policy") describes how PGKing ("PGKing", "we", "us", "our") collects, processes, stores, shares, and protects the personal data of individuals ("Users", "you", "your") who access and use the PGKing website, mobile-optimised platform, games, sports betting services, live casino products, and all related services (collectively, the "Platform").
PGKing is committed to handling personal data responsibly and in accordance with internationally recognised data protection principles, including those reflected in the European Union General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and equivalent frameworks. While Malaysia's Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA) primarily governs commercial data processing activities conducted within Malaysia, PGKing applies robust data protection standards as a matter of operating principle across all user interactions.
By creating a PGKing account or accessing any part of the Platform, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Policy. If you do not agree with how we process your personal data as described in this Policy, you should not create an account or use the Platform.

For the purposes of this Policy, the following definitions apply:
- "Personal Data" means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person, directly or indirectly, including by reference to an identifier such as a name, identification number, location data, or online identifier.
- "Processing" means any operation performed on Personal Data, including collection, recording, storage, use, disclosure, erasure, or destruction.
- "Data Controller" means the entity that determines the purposes and means of processing Personal Data — in this context, PGKing.
- "Data Processor" means any third party that processes Personal Data on behalf of PGKing under a data processing agreement.
- "Sensitive Personal Data" means Personal Data that warrants heightened protection, including identity document numbers and payment instrument details.

Data Controller
PGKing acts as the Data Controller in respect of the Personal Data collected through the Platform. As Data Controller, PGKing is responsible for determining the purposes for which, and the manner in which, Personal Data is processed.
PGKing is operated under an internationally recognised gaming licence. Questions relating to data controller identity, data processing purposes, or the exercise of data subject rights should be directed to [email protected].
Data We Collect
PGKing collects Personal Data across several categories, depending on the nature of your interaction with the Platform.
When you create a PGKing account, we collect: full legal name, date of birth, residential address (including city — for example, Kuala Lumpur, Petaling Jaya, or Penang), email address, and mobile phone number. This data is required to create and maintain your account.
To comply with our licensing obligations and applicable anti-money laundering requirements, we collect copies of government-issued identity documents (Malaysian MyKad, driving licence, or passport), proof of address documents, and selfie verification photographs. This data is processed as part of our KYC procedure and is retained for the minimum period required by applicable regulations.
We collect records of all deposits, withdrawals, and betting transactions conducted through your account, including payment method identifiers (e.g., masked bank account references, e-wallet account IDs for Touch 'n Go eWallet, Boost, GrabPay, DuitNow, or cryptocurrency wallet addresses). We do not store full card numbers or bank login credentials.
We automatically collect certain technical data when you access the Platform: IP address, device type and operating system, browser type and version, session timestamps, pages visited, and clickstream data. This data helps us maintain platform security, detect fraud, and improve the user experience.
When you contact PGKing support via live chat, email, or any other channel, we retain records of those communications for quality assurance, dispute resolution, and fraud prevention purposes.
Any additional information you voluntarily provide — such as preferred language, feedback responses, or survey participation — is collected and processed in accordance with this Policy.
Lawful Basis for Processing
PGKing processes Personal Data only where a lawful basis exists. The applicable bases are as follows:

Data Sharing & Disclosure
PGKing does not sell, rent, or trade your Personal Data to any third party for commercial purposes. We share Personal Data only in the following limited circumstances:
- Payment Processors: We share necessary financial data with approved payment service providers — including operators of Touch 'n Go eWallet, Boost, GrabPay, DuitNow, FPX, and banking partners such as Maybank, CIMB, Public Bank, and Hong Leong Bank — solely to facilitate deposit and withdrawal transactions. Each processor is bound by a data processing agreement and applicable financial privacy regulations.
- KYC & Identity Verification Partners: Identity documents and verification selfies are shared with third-party KYC service providers for the purpose of completing the identity verification process. These providers are contractually bound to process data only for this specified purpose.
- Fraud Prevention & Security Services: Anonymised or pseudonymised device and behavioural data may be shared with fraud detection service providers to protect the integrity of the Platform and all user accounts.
- Game Content Providers: Where you play games provided by third-party studios integrated into PGKing, limited session and gameplay data may be transmitted to those providers for the purpose of game operation and RNG auditing. Such providers are prohibited from using this data for independent profiling purposes.
- Legal & Regulatory Authorities: PGKing will disclose Personal Data to law enforcement agencies, regulatory bodies, or other competent authorities where required to do so by applicable law, court order, or regulatory directive. We will endeavour to notify Users of any such disclosure where legally permitted to do so.
- Corporate Transactions: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets involving PGKing, Personal Data may be transferred to the acquiring entity, subject to equivalent privacy protections.
Data Retention
PGKing retains Personal Data only for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected, subject to any longer retention period required by applicable law or our licensing obligations.
Upon expiry of the applicable retention period, Personal Data is securely deleted or anonymised such that it can no longer be associated with an identifiable individual.
International Data Transfers
As PGKing operates under an international gaming licence and utilises third-party service providers located in various jurisdictions, your Personal Data may be transferred to and processed in countries outside of Malaysia. Such countries may not have data protection laws equivalent to those applicable in Malaysia.
Where Personal Data is transferred internationally, PGKing ensures that appropriate safeguards are in place, including contractual obligations on the recipient that provide at least an equivalent level of data protection to that applicable under this Policy. These safeguards may include standard contractual clauses, binding corporate rules, or other recognised transfer mechanisms.

PGKing cannot guarantee absolute security but commits to promptly notifying affected Users of any data breach that presents a material risk to their rights and freedoms, in accordance with applicable notification obligations.
