07 Cookies & Tracking Technologies
The jkc8 platform uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to operate and improve the platform, remember your session and preferences, detect and prevent fraud, and — where consent has been given — deliver relevant communications. The types of cookies used by jkc8 include:
- Strictly necessary cookies: Essential for platform functionality, including session management and login authentication. Cannot be disabled without impairing your ability to use jkc8.
- Analytics cookies: Used to collect aggregated, anonymised data on how players use the jkc8 platform, enabling us to identify and fix issues and improve the user experience for Malaysian players.
- Security cookies: Used to detect suspicious session behaviour, bot activity, and potential account takeover attempts, supporting the integrity of your jkc8 account.
You may adjust your browser settings to control or block cookies, though doing so may impair the functionality of the jkc8 platform. Strictly necessary cookies cannot be blocked without rendering the platform inoperable.
08 Data Retention
jkc8 retains personal data for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, and as required by applicable regulatory and legal obligations. General retention periods applied by jkc8 are as follows:
- Account and identity data: Retained for the duration of the account relationship and for a minimum of five (5) years following account closure, as required under our international gaming authority licence and AML obligations.

- Automated fraud detection and anomaly monitoring on all account and transaction activity.
While jkc8 takes all reasonable steps to protect your data, no online platform can guarantee absolute security. In the unlikely event of a data breach that poses a risk to your rights, jkc8 will notify affected players and relevant authorities in accordance with our regulatory obligations.
