The majority of data we collect comes directly from you — during the account registration process, while completing your KYC verification, when you contact our support team, or when you update your account profile. This information is provided consciously and voluntarily.

2.2 Automatically During Platform Use

When you access the maxim178 platform via a web browser or mobile app, our systems automatically record certain technical information such as your device's IP address, browser type and version, operating system, access time, and pages visited. This data is collected using cookies and standard server log technologies.

2.3 Through the KYC Verification Process

To comply with the required identity verification standards, maxim178 collects identity documents such as a MyKad photo or passport, as well as proof of your registered payment method. These documents are collected through secure channels and stored in encrypted systems.

3. Purposes for Using Your Personal Data

Maxim178 uses your personal data for the following purposes:

  • Account management: To create, verify, and manage your user account on the maxim178 platform.
  • Transaction processing: To securely process deposits, withdrawals, and any financial transactions related to your account.
  • Identity verification (KYC): To meet international compliance standards for fraud prevention and anti-money laundering.
  • Customer support: To assist you when you contact the maxim178 support team with enquiries or complaints.
  • Platform security: To detect and prevent fraudulent activity, multiple account usage, and any security threats.
  • Legal compliance: To comply with any applicable legal requirements, regulations, or court orders.

4. Data Sharing with Third Parties

Maxim178 does not sell, rent, or disclose your personal data to third parties for marketing or commercial purposes. However, in certain limited situations, we may need to share some of your data with the following parties:

  • Payment service providers: To process your deposits and withdrawals — for example, payment processors DuitNow, FPX, and e-wallet providers. This data sharing is limited strictly to the information required to complete the transaction.
  • Game providers: Gaming platforms from third-party providers may require minimal technical data such as a session ID to ensure the games function properly.
  • Legal authority: maxim178 will disclose user data to the relevant authorities when required to do so by law, court order, or to support a legitimate criminal investigation.
  • Identity verification services: Third-party KYC service providers used to verify user identities — bound by confidentiality agreements.

All third parties involved in processing maxim178 user data are bound by strict data protection agreements and are only permitted to use that data for the specific purposes agreed upon.
