KYC Note: Identity verification documents submitted during the KYC process are stored in an encrypted environment and accessible only by authorized personnel.

3. How We Use Your Information

The personal information we collect is used solely for lawful and stated purposes. poka88 will not use your data for any other purpose without first obtaining your consent. The primary purposes for using your personal data include:

We follow the principle of data minimisation — meaning we only collect and use data that is strictly necessary for the stated purpose, and nothing more.

4. Information Sharing & Disclosure

  • Payment Service Providers — Banking institutions, e-wallet operators, and payment gateways that process your financial transactions. They receive only the minimum information necessary to complete the transaction.
  • Game Software Providers — Software companies providing games on the poka88 platform may receive non-identifiable usage data for technical and statistical purposes.
