Updated: 1 January 2026

Why Your Privacy Is Safe with ecwon

Six core data protection principles that underpin the trust of millions of ecwon members across Malaysia.

256-Bit SSL Encryption

All data transmitted between your browser and ecwon's servers is protected with bank-grade 256-bit SSL encryption. Your personal and financial information cannot be intercepted by any third party during transmission.

Secure Data Storage

Member personal data is stored on servers protected by multi-layered firewalls and intrusion detection systems. Database access is restricted to authorized personnel only, with role-based access controls in place.

Secure KYC Verification

Ecwon's KYC process is designed to protect your identity. Submitted documents are stored with encryption and used solely for verification purposes. ecwon does not retain copies of identity documents longer than required by law.

No Data Sales

Ecwon strictly does not sell, rent, or disclose member personal data to third parties for marketing purposes. Your data belongs to you — we only use it to deliver better services to you directly.

Full User Control

You have the right to access, correct, download, or request deletion of your personal data at any time. The ecwon account panel gives you direct control over your privacy settings and marketing communication preferences.

Transparent Cookie Policy

Ecwon uses cookies solely to improve the user experience and platform analytics. You can manage your cookie preferences through your browser settings. We do not use cookies for cross-site tracking on third-party websites.

1 Information Collected

Ecwon collects your personal information solely to provide a safe, responsible, and high-quality platform experience. We only collect data that is genuinely necessary for operational and legal compliance purposes.

Information you provide directly:

  • Full name as shown on official identification documents.
  • Active email address and mobile phone number.
  • Date of birth for age verification.
  • Current residential address.
  • Bank account or e-wallet details for deposits and withdrawals.
  • KYC documents (identity card, passport, bank statement) when requested.

Information collected automatically:

  • IP address and device information (device type, operating system, browser).
  • Platform usage log data (login time, games played, session duration).
  • Session cookies and performance cookies (see Section 7 for details).
  • General location information based on IP address (not precise GPS).

Ecwon never requests sensitive information such as your bank account password, card PIN, or email password through any communication channel. If you receive such a request claiming to be from ecwon, it is a fraudulent attempt.


2 How We Use Your Data

Every piece of data we collect has a clearly defined purpose and is not used beyond the stated scope. Below is a full list of the purposes for which ecwon uses your data:

Purpose of Use Data Type Requirements
Account registration & verification Name, email, phone number, date of birth Mandatory
Identity verification (KYC) Identity documents, bank statements Mandatory
Deposit & withdrawal processing Payment information, bank account Mandatory
Customer support Transaction history, account logs Mandatory
Fraud prevention & security IP address, log data, device information Mandatory
AML legal compliance Financial information, KYC documents Mandatory
User experience enhancement Usage data, game preferences Options
Marketing communications (with consent) Email, phone number Options

For purposes marked "Optional", you may withdraw consent at any time through your account settings without affecting the core services you receive.


3 Legal Basis for Processing

Ecwon processes your personal data on valid legal grounds in accordance with Malaysia's Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA) and international best practices. These grounds are as follows:

  • Contract performance — Data processing required to fulfil the service agreement between you and ecwon, including account management and payment processing.
  • Legal obligation — We are required by law to collect and verify certain information for anti-money laundering (AML) and counter-terrorism financing (CTF) purposes.
  • Legitimate interest — Processing for the purposes of platform security, fraud prevention, and service improvement that does not adversely affect your fundamental rights.
  • Consent — For optional activities such as marketing communications and advanced analytics, we rely on the explicit consent you provided during registration or through your account settings.

If you withdraw consent for consent-based processing, that action does not affect the validity of processing that occurred prior to withdrawal. ecwon's core services will not be affected by that decision.


4 Data Sharing

Ecwon does not sell or trade your personal data. However, there are specific situations where we may need to share your information with carefully selected parties:

  • Payment service providers — Licensed payment gateways that process your deposit and withdrawal transactions. They receive only the data necessary to complete the relevant transaction.
  • Licensed game providers — Companies such as Pragmatic Play, Evolution Gaming, and others require basic account information to operate game sessions in a secure and fair manner.
  • KYC service providers — Third-party identity verification platforms that help us verify documents quickly and securely.
  • Statutory authority — Government agencies, law enforcement authorities, or regulatory bodies when lawfully required by law or court order.
  • Security analysts — Cybersecurity firms that help us detect and prevent fraud and cyberattacks against the platform.

All third parties that receive your data are bound by strict confidentiality agreements and are prohibited from using your data for any purpose beyond the scope defined in those agreements. ecwon remains responsible for the protection of your data even when it is processed by third parties on our behalf.


5 Data Retention Period

Ecwon retains your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the original purpose of collection, or as required by applicable law.

Data Category Retention Period
Active account information Throughout the active account period + 5 years after closure
Financial transaction records 7 years (AML legal requirement)
KYC Documents 5 years after account closure
Support communication logs 3 years
Technical log data 90 days
Session cookies Expires when the browser is closed
Optional cookies Up to 12 months or until deleted

After the retention period ends, data will be permanently deleted or anonymised so it can no longer be linked to any individual. In cases where an active dispute or ongoing investigation exists, relevant data may be retained longer until the matter is fully resolved.

9 International Data Transfers

As ecwon operates as an online platform, your personal data may be processed or stored on servers located outside Malaysia in certain situations, particularly when involving technical service providers or international game providers.

Ecwon ensures that any international data transfers only take place to countries or entities that comply with data protection standards equivalent to or higher than those set out under Malaysia's PDPA. Protective measures in place include:

  • Standard Contractual Clauses binding all international data recipients.
  • Data transfer risk assessments conducted prior to any sharing of data with third parties outside Malaysia.

10 Children's Privacy

The ecwon platform is intended exclusively for individuals aged 18 years and above. We do not accept registrations from underage individuals and do not knowingly collect personal data from children.

If ecwon determines that data from a minor has been collected unintentionally, we will take immediate steps to:

  • Close the account in question immediately.
  • Permanently delete all associated personal data.
  • Investigate how the registration occurred and strengthen the age verification process.

Parents and guardians who become aware that a child under their care has registered on the ecwon platform are urged to contact our support team immediately so that appropriate action can be taken without delay.


11 Third-Party Links

The ecwon platform may contain links to third-party websites or applications in certain contexts, such as game provider pages or payment method information. ecwon is not responsible for the privacy practices of those third-party websites.

We encourage you to read the privacy policies of any third-party websites you visit separately, as their policies may differ from those of ecwon. Visiting third-party websites is at your own risk and discretion, and ecwon has no control over how they handle your data.
