Data Protection and Security
8h88 follows industry-standard technologies and practices to protect your personal and financial information. The key elements of our security framework are as follows:
- SSL/TLS encryption: All data exchanged between your browser and our servers is secured with 256-bit SSL encryption.
- Secure server infrastructure: Our databases are protected by firewalls and access controls.
- Two-factor authentication: An additional verification layer for account security.
- Payment data protection: Financial information is stored in encrypted form and full card numbers are never stored.
- Regular security audits: Periodic technical reviews are conducted to identify and address vulnerabilities.
- Staff training: All staff receive regular training on data protection and only authorised individuals have access to sensitive information.
Even so, no method of transmitting or storing information over the internet can be guaranteed to be completely secure. While we follow industry best practices, no security system is entirely impenetrable. You are encouraged to keep your account password confidential and to notify us immediately if you notice any suspicious activity.
Data Retention Period
8h88 retains your information only for as long as necessary or legally required. General guidelines are as follows:
- Information for active accounts is retained for as long as the account remains active.
- Records of financial transactions are retained for a specified period after account closure in accordance with applicable law.
- Customer support correspondence may be kept for a reasonable period after the relevant issue has been resolved.
- Security logs and technical records are generally retained for a short period and then deleted automatically.
At the end of the designated period, we securely and permanently delete or anonymise your information so that you can no longer be identified.

8h88 believes that you should have full control over your own information. To that end, we provide you with the following rights:
- Right of access: The right to request information about what data we hold about you.

Protection of Minors
8h88 services are intended only for individuals aged 21 or above. We do not knowingly collect personal information from minors, nor do we permit them to use our services.
An age verification process is in place at registration. If we become aware that a minor's information has entered our system for any reason, that account will be closed immediately and all associated information will be deleted.
If a parent or anyone else suspects that a minor is using our platform, they can report it to our support team.
Third-Party Links and Services
The 8h88 website may integrate third-party services for payment processing, identity verification, or game provision. These third-party service providers are governed by their own privacy policies and are solely responsible for their own data protection practices.
We verify the data protection standards of our partners and work only with trusted and reliable organisations. Nevertheless, 8h88 is not responsible for the privacy policies of third-party websites or services. It is advisable to read the relevant privacy policy before using their platforms.
Policy Changes and Updates
8h88 reserves the right to update this privacy policy periodically in line with changes to its business operations, technology, or legal requirements.
For any significant changes, we will publish a special notice on the website and notify registered users by email or via a message in their account. Continued use of the platform after any changes will be taken as your acceptance of the updated policy.
We therefore recommend that you visit this page regularly.
