- Game Providers: Software studios including Pragmatic Play, Evolution Gaming, Microgaming, NetEnt, Ezugi, Spribe, and others receive limited data (username, game session ID, bet amounts) necessary to operate their games on our platform. They do not receive your identity documents or financial details.

- Tax Authorities: Financial data may be reported to Indonesian or international tax authorities as required by tax laws and information exchange agreements.
- Fraud Prevention Networks: We participate in industry-wide fraud prevention databases to share information about confirmed fraudulent users, stolen payment methods, and security threats (shared data is limited to fraud indicators, not full personal profiles).
4.3 Corporate Transactions
If haba88 undergoes a merger, acquisition, restructuring, sale of assets, or bankruptcy, your personal data may be transferred to the acquiring entity or successor company as part of business assets. You will be notified via email and/or prominent notice on our platform of any such change in ownership or control of your personal data, along with choices you may have regarding your data.

We may share your information with other third parties not listed above if you provide specific consent for such sharing (e.g., participating in co-branded promotions with partners, social media integrations you authorize).
5. Data Security Measures
haba88 implements comprehensive technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal data from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction:
- Encryption: All data transmitted between your device and haba88 servers is protected by 256-bit SSL/TLS encryption (the same standard used by banks). Sensitive data stored in our databases (passwords, financial details, identity documents) is encrypted at rest using AES-256 encryption.
- Access Controls: Personal data is accessible only to authorized haba88 employees and contractors who require access to perform their job functions. Access is granted based on role-based permissions, with monitoring and audit logs tracking all data access.
- Authentication Security: Passwords are hashed using industry-standard algorithms (bcrypt or Argon2) with salting, making them irreversible even if databases are compromised. Two-factor authentication (2FA) is available to add extra login protection.
- Network Security: Firewalls, intrusion detection systems (IDS), intrusion prevention systems (IPS), and DDoS protection safeguard our infrastructure from cyber attacks.
- Regular Security Audits: Independent third-party security firms conduct penetration testing and vulnerability assessments on our systems at least annually. Critical vulnerabilities are remediated immediately.
- Employee Training: All haba88 staff undergo mandatory data protection and security awareness training. Confidentiality agreements bind employees to strict data handling requirements.
- Secure Development: Our software development follows secure coding practices including input validation, output encoding, and regular code reviews to prevent vulnerabilities like SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), and cross-site request forgery (CSRF).
- Backup and Disaster Recovery: Regular automated backups ensure data can be restored in case of system failures. Backup data is encrypted and stored in geographically separate locations.
While we employ industry-leading security measures, no system can guarantee 100% security. You play a critical role in protecting your account by choosing strong passwords, never sharing login credentials, logging out after sessions on shared devices, and promptly reporting suspicious activity to our support team.
6. Data Retention
haba88 retains your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements:
- Active Accounts: Data for active accounts is retained indefinitely while your account remains open and in use.
- Closed Accounts: After you voluntarily close your account, we retain most personal data for 5-7 years to comply with gaming license requirements, anti-money laundering regulations, and tax laws. After this retention period, data is securely deleted or anonymized unless longer retention is legally required.
- Transaction Records: Financial transaction data (deposits, withdrawals, bets, winnings) is retained for 7-10 years to meet audit, tax, and regulatory obligations.
- Identity Documents: KYC documents (KTP scans, proof of address, selfies) are retained for 5 years post-account closure as required by anti-money laundering regulations.
- Communication Records: Customer support chat transcripts, emails, and phone call recordings are retained for 2-3 years for quality assurance and dispute resolution.
- Marketing Data: If you opt out of marketing communications, your email address and opt-out preference are retained indefinitely to honor your request and prevent re-subscription.
- Self-Excluded Users: Data for self-excluded users is retained for the duration of the exclusion period plus 5 years to prevent circumvention and ensure exclusions are honored.
When personal data is no longer needed, it is securely deleted using methods that prevent recovery (multi-pass overwriting for electronic data, physical destruction for physical documents). Alternatively, data may be aggregated and anonymized such that it can no longer identify individuals.
7. Your Privacy Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have certain rights regarding your personal data held by haba88. These rights typically include:

Note that we cannot delete data we are legally required to retain for regulatory compliance (typically 5-7 years post-account closure).
- Right to Restriction of Processing: You can request that we limit how we use your data in certain situations (e.g., while verifying data accuracy, when processing is unlawful but you prefer restriction over deletion).
- Right to Data Portability: You can request a copy of your data in a portable format to transfer to another service provider where technically feasible.
- Right to Object: You can object to processing based on legitimate interests (e.g., direct marketing, profiling). We will cease processing unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds that override your rights.
