1. Introduction and Scope of This Policy

This policy covers all data collected through the cita888 website, mobile app, email communications, customer support, and any other official channels we operate. We take a transparent and responsible approach to all matters concerning your personal data.

As a platform serving Malaysian users, we recognise the importance of user trust. Every decision related to data handling is made with the interests and security of our members as the top priority.

4. Data Sharing with Third Parties

Cita888 does not sell, rent, or disclose your personal data to third parties for their own marketing purposes. However, there are limited situations where data sharing is necessary to operate the platform:

• Identity Verification Providers: The minimum data required for the KYC process is shared with certified third-party identity verification services.

5. Data Security Measures

We continuously invest in security infrastructure to ensure your data remains protected at all times. Key security measures we have implemented include:

• 256-bit SSL encryption for all data transmitted between your browser and the cita888 servers.
• Passwords are stored using one-way hashing algorithms that cannot be decrypted.
• Two-factor authentication (2FA) is available for all accounts as an additional layer of security.
• Round-the-clock security monitoring with automated threat detection and incident response.
• Regular penetration testing by independent security teams to identify and patch vulnerabilities.
• Strict internal access controls — employees can only access data required for their specific role.
• Regular data backups with tested disaster recovery procedures.
