1.Introduction & Scope of This Privacy Policy

Dafa takes the privacy of every member who entrusts us with their personal information very seriously. This Privacy Policy has been drafted to explain clearly and transparently how we handle your personal data — from the point of collection through to storage and deletion.

As an online betting platform operating for users in Malaysia, dafa is fully bound by the provisions of Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA) Malaysia.

If you are under 18 years of age, you are not permitted to use the dafa platform and, as such, we will not collect personal data from individuals below that age.

5.Data Security Measures

Dafa continually invests in the latest security technologies and procedures to ensure your personal data is protected against unauthorised access, loss, misuse, or unintended disclosure.

Key security measures we have implemented include:

  • End-to-end encryption: All data communications between the dafa platform and your device are encrypted using TLS 1.3 — the highest encryption standard currently available.
  • Two-factor authentication (2FA): Members are encouraged to enable 2FA for an added layer of protection that makes unauthorised access to your account significantly more difficult.
  • 24/7 Monitoring: Our security systems monitor for unusual activity around the clock and will trigger an immediate alert if any threat is detected.
  • Regular security audits: Independent third parties conduct regular security audits to identify and patch any vulnerabilities in our systems.
  • Staff training: All dafa staff who handle personal data undergo mandatory and regular data security training.
What Should You Do?

Your account security also depends on your own actions. Make sure you use a strong password, do not share your login details with anyone, and contact dafa support immediately if you suspect any suspicious activity on your account.
