Trusted Service Providers

898 works with carefully selected third-party service providers to support platform operations, including payment processors, game software providers, customer service platforms, and analytics services. All service providers are bound by strict confidentiality agreements and may only use your data for purposes we specify.

Business Transfer

In the event of a merger, acquisition, or business asset transfer, member data may be transferred as part of those assets. Members will be notified of any such transfer and the new terms that apply.

04Data Security & Protection

898 continuously invests in the latest security infrastructure to protect our members' personal data from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.

  • 256-bit SSL Encryption: All communications between your browser and 898's servers are encrypted using the latest TLS protocol, ensuring your data cannot be intercepted in transit.
  • Stored Data Encryption: Sensitive data such as financial information and KYC documents are encrypted using AES-256 standards at rest.
  • Layered Access Control: Access to 898's systems and databases is restricted to staff who require it, and all access is logged and audited.
  • 24/7 Monitoring: Our security systems are continuously monitored by a dedicated cybersecurity team to detect and respond to any threats promptly.
  • Regular Penetration Testing: 898 conducts regular security audits including penetration testing by independent security experts to identify and address system vulnerabilities.
  • Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): 898's internal systems require 2FA for all staff access, and members are also encouraged to enable 2FA on their accounts.

Despite all these security measures, no digital system can be guaranteed 100% secure. We therefore encourage members to play their part in protecting their accounts by using strong passwords and never sharing their login credentials.
