Privacy at a Glance
Six Core Privacy Commitments at twbet
These cards summarise the practical approach twbet takes to personal data. The detailed clauses below govern actual obligations and rights.
Technical Safeguards
Encrypted sessions, access controls and monitoring measures help protect account data stored within the twbet environment.
Transparent Processing
This policy identifies every category of data, the reason it is used and how long twbet may retain it before deletion or anonymisation.
Meaningful User Rights
Malaysian account holders can request access to their data, raise correction requests, ask about deletion, or object to certain processing, subject to applicable requirements.
Controlled Sharing
twbet limits disclosure to payment providers, verification partners, security services and other recipients that have a legitimate operational or compliance purpose.
Limited Retention
Personal data is retained only while required for account administration, dispute handling, fraud prevention, legal compliance and responsible-gaming obligations.
1. Introduction and Scope
This Privacy Policy applies to personal data processed when a person visits the twbet website, creates or uses an account, contacts customer support, participates in sports betting or casino-style entertainment, accepts a promotion, or makes a payment. It should be read together with the twbet Terms & Conditions and Responsible Gambling information.
For the purposes of this policy, twbet determines why and how personal data is processed in connection with its services. Some service providers may process information on behalf of twbet under contractual instructions, while certain payment or verification providers may act independently for purposes required by their own legal and regulatory obligations.
By using twbet, a user acknowledges that personal data will be processed as described in this policy. Where consent is the appropriate basis for a particular activity, twbet will request that consent separately. Refusing optional processing will not prevent essential account administration, although it may affect access to the specific optional feature concerned.
The service is intended for eligible adults. Casino-style participation is restricted to players aged 21 and above. twbet does not knowingly invite minors to create accounts. If information indicates that an account holder is underage, access may be suspended while age and identity are reviewed.

3. Personal Data We Collect
twbet collects information supplied directly by users, generated through use of the service, or received from authorised payment, identity and security providers. The exact categories depend on whether the individual is browsing publicly available pages, operating an account, completing verification or requesting a transaction.
| Data category | Examples | Primary purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Identity data | Legal name, date of birth, nationality, identity document and verification result | Age checks, KYC, fraud prevention and account eligibility |
| Contact data | Email address, mobile number and residential address | Account administration, security notices and support |
| Account data | Username, encrypted credentials, settings and account status | Authentication, service delivery and account protection |
| Payment data | Transaction reference, MYR amount, payment route and account-holder confirmation | Deposits, withdrawals, reconciliation and risk review |
| Activity data | Wagers, game activity, promotions, limits and transaction history | Service operation, settlement, disputes and responsible-gaming monitoring |
| Technical data | IP address, browser, device type, timestamps and security events | Security, troubleshooting, fraud detection and website performance |
| Communication data | Support messages, complaint records and verification correspondence | Assistance, quality review, record keeping and dispute resolution |
3.1 Information Provided Directly
Users provide personal data when registering, updating account details, completing KYC, setting responsible-gaming controls or contacting twbet support. Documents may contain photographs, identity numbers, addresses and other details needed to confirm that an account belongs to the person operating it.
3.2 Payment Information
When a Malaysian player uses Maybank, CIMB, Public Bank, Hong Leong, DuitNow, FPX, Touch 'n Go eWallet, Boost or GrabPay, twbet may receive a transaction reference, selected payment method, MYR amount, status and limited account-holder information. twbet does not require users to disclose online banking passwords, e-wallet passwords or one-time security codes.
3.3 Information Generated Through Use
twbet records account activity needed to provide and protect the service. This may include login attempts, session times, deposits, withdrawals, sports markets, casino-style activity, promotional participation and use of deposit limits, cooling-off periods or self-exclusion tools.
4. Purposes of Data Processing
twbet processes personal data only for specified and legitimate purposes. Depending on the circumstances, those purposes may include:
- creating, authenticating and administering a twbet account;
- confirming that a user is eligible and aged 21 or above;
- conducting identity, address, payment ownership and source-of-funds checks;
- accepting deposits, processing withdrawals and maintaining transaction records;
- settling sports wagers and casino-style activity accurately;
- detecting fraud, account misuse, collusion, money laundering and cybersecurity threats;
- applying deposit limits, cooling-off periods, self-exclusion and other responsible-gaming controls;
- answering questions, reviewing complaints and resolving payment or account disputes;
- maintaining website reliability, measuring performance and correcting technical faults;
- communicating important changes to services, security practices or legal terms; and
- sending optional promotional information where the user has an appropriate choice and has not opted out.
twbet may analyse activity patterns to identify unusual transactions, possible account compromise or indicators that a player may benefit from responsible-gaming intervention. Automated indicators may support a review, but significant account decisions may also involve assessment by authorised personnel where appropriate.
5. Legal Bases and Grounds for Processing
The ground used by twbet depends on the nature of the information and the purpose of processing. Applicable grounds may include performance of the agreement with the user, compliance with legal or regulatory duties, protection of vital or legitimate interests, establishment or defence of legal claims, and consent where consent is required.
5.1 Contractual Necessity
Account information, wager records and transaction details are generally required to provide the services requested by a user under the twbet Terms & Conditions. Without essential information, twbet may be unable to create an account, accept a wager or process a withdrawal.
5.2 Legal and Compliance Obligations
Identity documents, transaction records and risk information may be processed to satisfy applicable anti-fraud, anti-money-laundering, accounting, dispute and record-keeping requirements. The exact obligation may vary according to the service, payment route and relevant jurisdiction.
5.3 Legitimate Interests
twbet may process information to protect users and systems, prevent abuse, improve website performance, investigate complaints and maintain service integrity. Before relying on legitimate interests, twbet considers whether the processing is proportionate and whether the user's rights require additional safeguards.
5.4 Consent
Consent may be used for optional marketing preferences or other processing where an affirmative choice is appropriate. A user may withdraw consent for future processing, although withdrawal does not invalidate processing completed lawfully before that request.
6. Sharing and Disclosure of Personal Data
twbet does not sell personal data as a standalone commercial product. Information may be disclosed only where reasonably necessary for service delivery, security, verification, payments, legal compliance or protection of legitimate rights.
Recipients may include:
- identity and age-verification providers supporting KYC reviews;
- banks, e-wallet operators and payment processors handling MYR transactions;
- hosting, cloud, cybersecurity and technical support providers;
- game, sports data and platform suppliers where records are needed to operate or settle activity;
- professional advisers, auditors and insurers subject to appropriate confidentiality duties;
- fraud-prevention and compliance services used to assess suspicious activity; and
- public authorities or other recipients where disclosure is lawfully required.
Service providers acting on behalf of twbet are expected to process personal data under appropriate instructions, security requirements and confidentiality restrictions. A provider may not use the information for unrelated purposes merely because it has technical access.
In the event of a proposed business reorganisation, acquisition or transfer, relevant information may be disclosed under confidentiality safeguards. Any successor handling twbet user data would remain subject to applicable privacy obligations.
7. International Data Transfers
Some twbet systems or service providers may operate outside Malaysia. As a result, personal data may be processed in a country with privacy rules that differ from those applying in the user's location.
Where an international transfer occurs, twbet seeks to use appropriate contractual, organisational and technical safeguards. These may include data-processing terms, confidentiality requirements, access restrictions, encryption and assessments of the recipient's security practices.
International processing does not remove the protections described in this policy. Access remains limited to authorised purposes, and twbet expects providers to notify it of material security incidents affecting entrusted information.
8. Cookies and Similar Technologies
twbet may use cookies, local storage and similar technologies to keep users signed in, remember preferences, protect sessions, understand website performance and detect suspicious access. Some technologies are essential because the service cannot operate securely without them.
8.1 Essential Technologies
Essential cookies may support authentication, load balancing, security controls, language settings and transaction continuity. Disabling them through a browser may prevent account features from working correctly.
8.2 Performance and Preference Technologies
Performance information can help twbet identify slow pages, navigation problems and device compatibility issues. Preference technologies may remember non-essential settings so users do not need to select them during every visit.
8.3 Managing Cookies
Users can manage browser storage through their browser settings. Removing cookies may sign a user out and reset saved preferences. Where consent is required for a non-essential category, twbet will provide an appropriate choice before using that category.
9. Data Retention and Deletion
twbet retains personal data for no longer than reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, subject to legal, accounting, security, dispute and responsible-gaming requirements. Retention periods may therefore differ between data categories.
Basic account and transaction records may need to be retained after closure to resolve disputes, prevent fraud, satisfy financial record-keeping obligations and demonstrate compliance. Self-exclusion information may also be retained where necessary to prevent an excluded user from opening or operating another account.
When information is no longer required, twbet may securely delete it, remove identifying elements or place it beyond routine operational use until scheduled destruction. Backup copies may remain for a limited period where immediate deletion is not technically practical, but access will remain restricted.
A deletion request does not always require immediate removal of every record. twbet may preserve data where retention is necessary to comply with a lawful obligation, establish or defend a claim, complete a security review, maintain an exclusion or protect another person's rights.
10. User Rights and Choices
Subject to applicable law and verification of identity, users may have rights concerning personal data held by twbet. A request will be considered according to its circumstances, and twbet may explain if a right is restricted by another lawful requirement.
Access
Ask whether twbet processes personal data and request a copy of eligible information together with relevant processing details.
Correction
Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete account information, subject to any identity checks needed to prevent unauthorised changes.
Deletion
Ask twbet to delete eligible data where continued retention is not required for compliance, security, disputes or responsible-gaming controls.
Restriction or Objection
Request limited use of disputed information or object to certain processing based on legitimate interests, where applicable.
Preference Management
Change optional marketing preferences without affecting essential account, security or transaction communications.
Complaint
Raise a privacy concern with twbet and, where applicable, approach a competent data-protection authority.
10.1 Making a Request
A user may contact twbet support using the plain-text email address shown below. The request should describe the right being exercised and provide enough information to locate the relevant account. For security, twbet may ask for proportionate identity verification before releasing or changing personal data.
Requests will be handled within a reasonable period, taking account of complexity and applicable requirements. If a request is manifestly unfounded, excessive, technically unclear or affects another person's rights, twbet may seek clarification, limit the response or decline the request with an explanation where permitted.
11. Data Security and Account Protection
twbet applies administrative, technical and organisational controls designed to protect personal data against accidental loss, unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure and destruction. Measures may include encrypted transmission, access permissions, logging, monitoring, staff confidentiality requirements and security testing.
No online system can provide an absolute guarantee against every threat. Users also play an important role by choosing a strong and unique password, securing the email account connected to twbet, signing out on shared devices and refusing to disclose one-time codes.
twbet will never require a user to send an online banking password, e-wallet password or complete card security credential through ordinary customer-support correspondence. Anyone who receives a suspicious request should avoid responding and notify support using the contact details displayed on the twbet website.
If a personal-data incident creates a material risk, twbet will investigate, limit further exposure and make notifications where required. The response may include credential resets, temporary account restrictions or requests for additional verification.
12. Responsible-Gaming and Sensitive Information
Information relating to deposit limits, cooling-off periods, self-exclusion, support conversations and indicators of harmful play may be processed to protect users and administer responsible-gaming measures. Access to such information is limited according to role and operational need.
twbet may use account activity, transaction patterns and session information to identify signs that merit a responsible-gaming communication or account review. These measures are intended to support informed control and do not replace professional financial, medical or counselling advice.
Where a user requests self-exclusion, twbet may retain enough identifying information to apply the exclusion and detect attempts to create another account. This can continue after account closure where necessary to honour the player's request and protect the effectiveness of the restriction.
13. Protection of Minors
twbet services are not directed to children or underage users. Casino-style gambling is for eligible adults aged 21 and above only. Age information may be checked during registration, before withdrawal or whenever an eligibility concern arises.
If a parent, guardian or other person reasonably believes that a minor has provided personal data to twbet, the concern should be reported promptly. twbet may restrict the relevant account, request information needed to investigate and delete data where retention is not required for security, legal or evidential purposes.
14. Changes to This Privacy Policy
twbet may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in services, payment methods, technologies, security practices or applicable privacy requirements. The effective date at the top of the page will identify the current version.
Where a change materially affects how personal data is used, twbet may provide an additional website or account notice. Users should review the current policy periodically. If consent is required for a new purpose, continued use alone will not replace an affirmative choice.
15. Contact Us About Privacy
Questions, concerns and requests concerning this Privacy Policy or the handling of personal data may be directed to twbet customer support.
Email: [email protected]
The email address is displayed as plain text and is not a clickable link. To help twbet review a request, users should identify the relevant account and explain the privacy issue clearly. Passwords, one-time codes and complete banking credentials must never be included.
Before discussing account-specific information, twbet may request reasonable proof of identity. This safeguard is intended to prevent an unauthorised person from obtaining, changing or deleting another user's personal data.
Privacy reminder: Protect your twbet password, secure your registered email account and never share one-time codes. Review the Terms & Conditions for account rules and the Responsible Gambling page for information about limits, cooling-off periods and self-exclusion.
