Protected by 256-bit SSL Encryption

All data transmitted between your device and Highland 99's servers is protected by 256-bit SSL encryption — the same standard used by Malaysia's online banking systems. Your data cannot be intercepted by third parties.

Your personal data is never sold, rented, or shared with advertisers or third-party marketing companies. Your information is only shared in situations explicitly defined in this policy.

Highland 99 operates fully in compliance with Malaysia's Personal Data Protection Act 2010. Data processing is carried out with your consent, for legitimate purposes, and with adequate safeguards in place.

Right to Access & Correction Guaranteed

Communication Controls in Your Hands

You may opt out of receiving any marketing communications from Highland 99 at any time via your account panel or by contacting our support team.

Important Note: This Privacy Policy describes Highland 99's privacy practices with respect to personal data we collect from players on our platform. By registering for or using Highland 99's services, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy. Please read it carefully — it is written in plain language, not confusing legal jargon.

1 Introduction

Highland 99 is a digital entertainment platform operating at highland99.click. We understand that players' trust in us depends not only on the quality of our games and the speed of our payouts, but also on how we handle the personal information you entrust to us.

This Privacy Policy is written to give you a clear and honest picture of what data we collect, why we need it, what we do with it, and who may have access to it. We also explain your rights under Malaysia's Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA) and how to exercise them.

Highland 99 is the data controller for personal information collected through our platform. This means we are responsible for ensuring your data is processed lawfully, fairly, and transparently in accordance with the PDPA 2010. If you have any questions about how we handle your data, you can reach us at any time by email at support@highland99.click.

Scope of This Policy: This Privacy Policy applies to all data collected through highland99.click, our email communications, our customer support system, and all other digital services operated by Highland 99. It does not apply to third-party websites or services that may be linked from our platform.

2 Personal Data We Collect

Highland 99 collects various types of personal data depending on how you interact with our platform. Below is a detailed breakdown of the data that may be collected:

Data Category Type of Information Requirements
Identification Data Full name, MyKad number, date of birth, gender Mandatory (KYC)
Contact Data Malaysian phone number, email address, residential address Mandatory
Financial Data Deposit and withdrawal records, payment methods used (Touch 'n Go, DuitNow, GrabPay, FPX, etc.), transaction history Mandatory
Gaming Data Game history, betting records, account balance, wins and losses, favourite games Mandatory
Technical Data IP address, browser type, operating system, device information, login records and activity logs Automatic
Usage Data Pages visited, time spent, features used, and navigation patterns within the platform Automatic

Responsible Gambling Data Self-imposed limits, account cooling-off periods, deposit and loss limit history When activated

Highland 99 does not collect sensitive data such as health information, political views, religious beliefs, or biometric data unless it is a specific requirement for a particular identity verification process, and only with your explicit consent.

3 How Data Is Collected

Your personal data is collected by Highland 99 through the following methods:

  • Directly from you: When you register a new account, complete your profile, make a deposit, submit a withdrawal request, contact customer support, or fill in any form within the platform.
  • Automatically during platform use: When you browse the website, play games, or use any platform features, our systems automatically record certain technical and usage data through cookies and similar tracking technologies.
  • From payment providers: When you make a deposit or withdrawal via Touch 'n Go, DuitNow, GrabPay, Boost, ShopeePay, FPX, Maybank2u, or CIMB Clicks, the payment provider may share limited transaction information with us for verification and compliance purposes.
  • From gaming service providers: Third-party game providers such as Pragmatic Play and Evolution Gaming may share technical data related to your gaming sessions for troubleshooting and audit purposes.
  • From the referral programme: If you registered through Highland 99's referral programme, the member who referred you may have provided us with your basic contact information.

Highland 99 does not purchase data lists from third-party data brokers and does not collect your personal data from social media without your explicit consent. All data collection is based on legitimate business needs and consent provided by you.

4 Purpose of Personal Data Use

Highland 99 uses your personal data solely for the following purposes. Any use beyond this scope requires your additional consent:

  • Account management: Creating and maintaining your player account, verifying your identity, processing secure logins, and managing your account settings.
  • Transaction processing: Processing deposits via Malaysian e-wallets and internet banking, executing withdrawals, maintaining accurate financial records, and meeting audit requirements.
  • Provision of gaming services: Ensuring all slots, Live Casino, poker, sports, and jackpot games run smoothly and delivering a personalised gaming experience.
  • Customer support: Responding to enquiries, resolving complaints, and providing technical assistance relevant to your specific account situation.
  • Security and fraud prevention: Detecting and preventing fraudulent activity, money laundering, bonus abuse, multi-account usage, and other security threats.
  • Legal compliance: Meeting KYC (Know Your Customer) requirements, anti-money laundering (AML) reporting obligations, and other legal requirements applicable to our platform's operations in Malaysia.
  • Responsible gambling: Monitoring gameplay patterns to identify players who may need assistance, enforcing self-imposed limits you have set, and ensuring players who have applied limits are not targeted with promotions.
  • Marketing communications: Sending you information about promotions, bonuses, and platform updates — but only where you have given your consent to receive such communications.
  • Platform improvements: Analysing anonymised usage data to improve the design, performance, and features of the Highland 99 platform.

5 Legal Basis for Data Processing

Under Malaysia's PDPA 2010, all processing of personal data must have a valid legal basis. Highland 99 processes your data on the following grounds, depending on the type of processing involved:

  • Consent: For marketing communications, the use of certain cookies, and any processing beyond what is essential for the basic provision of our services. You may withdraw this consent at any time.
  • Contract performance: For processing required to deliver the services you have requested — including account management, deposit and withdrawal processing, and access to games.
  • Legal obligations: For processing required to comply with Malaysian law — including KYC requirements, AML reporting, and record-keeping for tax and audit purposes.
  • Legitimate interests: For security and fraud prevention purposes, platform improvements based on aggregated data analysis, and essential service communications related to your account.

Your Rights Regarding Consent: Where processing is based on your consent, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out prior to the withdrawal. Please note that withdrawing consent may affect our ability to provide certain services to you.

6 Disclosure of Data to Third Parties

Highland 99 does not sell your personal data. However, to deliver complete services and meet legal obligations, we may share your data with the following categories of third parties in limited and controlled circumstances:

  • Payment service providers: Touch 'n Go eWallet, GrabPay, Boost, ShopeePay, DuitNow, FPX, Maybank2u, and CIMB Clicks receive the transaction information required to process your deposits and withdrawals. Each provider has its own Privacy Policy governing the use of that data.
  • Gaming software providers: Companies such as Pragmatic Play, Evolution Gaming, NetEnt, Microgaming, and SA Gaming receive limited game session data necessary to deliver and support their games on the Highland 99 platform.
  • Technology service providers: Cloud infrastructure providers, cybersecurity services, and analytics platforms that support the operation of our platform. All such providers are bound by strict data processing agreements.
  • Legal authorities: Malaysian law enforcement agencies, courts, or relevant regulatory bodies when required by law or for the purpose of investigating fraud or money laundering activity.
  • Professional advisors: Lawyers, accountants, auditors, and security specialists who require access to certain data to provide their professional services to Highland 99, subject to strict confidentiality obligations.

In all of the above situations, Highland 99 shares only the minimum data necessary for the stated purpose. We ensure that all data recipients have adequate data protection measures in place and agree to use the data solely for the permitted purpose.

Highland 99 does not share player data with advertising companies, data aggregators, social media platforms, or any third party whose purpose is unrelated to the delivery of Highland 99 services to you.

7 Data Security

Highland 99 invests seriously in security infrastructure to protect our players' personal data. This is not a marketing phrase — we operate a multi-layered security system running 24 hours a day to keep your data safe.

Highland 99 Data Security Layers
256-bit SSL Encryption

All communications between your device and Highland 99's servers are encrypted using TLS 1.3 with 256-bit SSL certificates. This ensures your data cannot be intercepted in transit.

Stored Data Encryption

Sensitive data stored in our databases — including identification details and financial information — is encrypted using AES-256 standards. Even in the event of unauthorised database access, the data cannot be read without the encryption key.

24/7 Security Monitoring

Our automated monitoring system continuously tracks activity across the platform to detect unauthorised access attempts, suspicious activity patterns, and other cybersecurity threats.

Strict Internal Access Controls

Highland 99 staff are only granted access to the data necessary to perform their role — a strict least-privilege principle. All access to player data is logged and audited on a regular basis.

Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)

2FA is available for all Highland 99 player accounts. We also use 2FA internally for all staff access to systems containing player data.

Regular Data Backups

Critical data is automatically backed up on a strict schedule to secure, separate locations. Data recovery procedures are tested regularly to ensure they work when needed.

While Highland 99 takes all reasonable steps to protect your data, no security system is entirely foolproof. In the event of a data breach that may affect your rights, Highland 99 is committed to notifying you and the relevant authorities within the timeframe required by the PDPA 2010.

8 Data Retention Period

Highland 99 does not retain your personal data longer than necessary for the stated purposes, or longer than required under Malaysian law. The following are our data retention guidelines:

Data Type Retention Period Reason
Financial transaction records Minimum 7 years Malaysian legal requirements (Income Tax Act, AML)
Identification data (KYC) 5 years after account closure Anti-money laundering compliance requirements
Game history 2 years Dispute resolution, game fairness audits
Live casino records 30 days video; 1 year data logs Audit and dispute resolution
Customer support records 3 years Historical reference and recurring issue resolution
Technical data & system logs 90 days Fraud detection and security analysis
Marketing data Until consent is withdrawn Consent-based communications
Responsible gaming data 5 years Protecting vulnerable players from re-registering

Once the retention period expires, data is securely disposed of in accordance with industry-standard procedures that ensure it cannot be recovered. Fully anonymised data — where no individual can be identified — may be retained for longer periods for statistical analysis purposes.

9 Your Rights Under PDPA 2010

Malaysia's Personal Data Protection Act 2010 grants you several important rights regarding your personal data held by Highland 99. Below is an explanation of those rights and how to exercise them:

Right of Access

You have the right to obtain a copy of the personal data we hold about you. Requests will be processed within 14 business days. The first request is free of charge; subsequent requests may be subject to a small fee.

Right to Rectification

If the personal data we hold about you is inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to request that we correct or complete it. Corrections are typically processed within 7 business days.

Right to Withdraw Consent

Where processing is based on your consent (such as marketing communications), you may withdraw that consent at any time via your account panel or by contacting us.

Right to Object

You have the right to object to the processing of your data for direct marketing purposes at any time. Your objection will be acted on immediately and you will no longer receive any marketing communications.

Right to Erasure

In certain circumstances, you may request the deletion of your personal data. This right is not absolute — deletion may not be possible if the data is required for legal compliance or contract management.

Right to Restriction of Processing

You may request that we restrict the processing of your data in certain circumstances — for example, while you dispute the accuracy of your data or while we review your objection.

Right to Data Portability

You have the right to receive your personal data in a structured, machine-readable format for transfer to another platform, for processing based on consent or contract.

How to Exercise Your Rights

Send an email to support@highland99.click with the subject line "PDPA Rights Request", along with your account number and a copy of your MyKad. We will respond within 14 business days.

10 Cookies & Tracking Technologies

Highland 99 uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to improve your experience on our platform, maintain session security, and analyse how the platform is used. The following are the types of cookies we use:

  • Essential Cookies: These cookies are required for the platform's core functions — including login session management, account security, and transaction processing. The platform cannot operate without them and they cannot be disabled.
  • Performance Cookies: These cookies collect information about how you use the platform — which pages are visited most frequently, error messages received, and so on. This data helps us improve the platform. Information is collected in an aggregated format that cannot personally identify you.
  • Functional Cookies: These cookies allow the platform to remember your preferences — such as your preferred language, display settings, and features you regularly use. They make your experience on the platform more convenient.
  • Marketing Cookies: Used only with your consent. These cookies help us show you relevant promotions and measure the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns.

You can manage your cookie settings through your browser settings. Disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of the Highland 99 platform. A cookie notice will be displayed when you first visit our platform to obtain your consent.

Third-Party Cookies: Third-party game providers operating within the Highland 99 platform may set their own cookies. The use of such cookies is subject to each provider's own privacy policy. Highland 99 does not have direct control over these third-party cookies.

11 Children's Privacy

Highland 99 services are strictly for individuals aged 21 and above. Our platform is not designed for children or minors, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under the age of 21.

During registration, all players are required to confirm that they are at least 21 years of age. The KYC (Know Your Customer) process conducted prior to certain withdrawal amounts also requires age verification through an official identification document.

If Highland 99 discovers that personal data belonging to an individual under the age of 21 has been collected inadvertently, we will take immediate steps to delete that data and close the account in question. Any funds held in that account will be handled in accordance with established procedures depending on the circumstances.

If you believe your child under the age of 21 may have an account with Highland 99, please contact us immediately at support@highland99.click with the relevant supporting documents.

12 Cross-Border Data Transfers

In the operation of the Highland 99 platform, some of the third-party service providers we work with — including game providers such as Evolution Gaming and Pragmatic Play, as well as cloud infrastructure providers — may operate outside Malaysia. This means your data may be transferred to and stored on servers located outside Malaysia.

Before any cross-border data transfer takes place, Highland 99 ensures that adequate safeguards are in place, including:

  • Binding data processing agreements between Highland 99 and data recipients outside Malaysia
  • Confirmation that the recipient country maintains a level of data protection equivalent to or greater than that of Malaysia
  • Use of internationally recognised standard data protection clauses in data transfer agreements

In all cases, only the minimum data necessary for the provision of the relevant service is transferred, and all data recipients agree to use it solely for the permitted purpose and to protect it with an adequate level of security.

13 Privacy Policy Amendments

Highland 99 may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our data practices, legal requirements, or the services we offer. When material changes are made, we will notify you through one or more of the following methods:

  • In-platform notification upon your next login
  • Email to the address registered to your account
  • A prominent notice on the Highland 99 website homepage

The "Updated" date at the top of this page indicates when this Privacy Policy was last reviewed. We recommend checking this page periodically to stay informed of Highland 99's latest privacy practices.

Continued use of the Highland 99 platform after any amendments take effect will be considered acceptance of the updated privacy terms. If you do not agree with the changes, please stop using the platform and contact us to request account closure.

FAQ – Highland 99 Privacy Policy

Answers to the questions players ask most often about their privacy and data protection.

No. Highland 99 does not store the full details of your payment instruments — bank account numbers, card numbers, or e-wallet credentials such as Touch 'n Go, GrabPay, DuitNow, and others. All financial transactions are processed through secure, PCI-DSS-compliant payment gateways, and such sensitive details never pass through or are stored on Highland 99's servers. What we do retain are transaction records — the date, amount, and payment method type (not the full details) — for financial record-keeping and customer support purposes.

You may request the deletion of your personal data, though it is important to understand that this right is not absolute. Highland 99 is required under Malaysian law to retain certain financial records and KYC data for a specified period — typically between 5 and 7 years — even after your account has been closed. This is a requirement under Malaysia's anti-money laundering regulations and tax laws. Data that can be deleted immediately includes marketing data, communication preferences, and information that is not subject to legal retention requirements. To submit a deletion request, contact support@highland99.click with the details of your request and we will advise which data can and cannot be deleted, along with the reasons.

Highland 99 only sends marketing communications — including notifications about bonuses, new promotions, and platform updates — to players who have given explicit consent to receive them. You can manage your communication preferences at any time through the settings section of your Highland 99 account, or by clicking the "unsubscribe" link in any marketing email you receive from us. We do not use your gaming or transaction data to build profiles that are sold to third-party advertisers. Any promotional personalisation we carry out (such as showing bonuses relevant to your favourite game types) is done entirely in-house, and your data never leaves Highland 99's systems for this purpose.

When you close your Highland 99 account, your data is not deleted immediately. This is a legal requirement in Malaysia — financial records, transaction records, and identification data (KYC) must be retained for the periods prescribed by the relevant laws. In practice: your account will be marked as "closed" and you will no longer be able to log in or use Highland 99's services. Your data will be held in a secure system with strictly limited access. You will not receive any marketing communications after your account is closed. Once the mandatory retention period expires, your data will be securely disposed of. If you closed your account for responsible gambling reasons, your self-exclusion records are kept for a longer period to ensure you cannot open a new account within the specified timeframe.

Highland 99 only discloses player data to Malaysian legal authorities when required to do so by law or a valid court order. We do not voluntarily disclose data without a solid legal basis. Upon receiving a data request from the authorities, we will assess the validity and scope of the request and disclose only the minimum data required under the relevant order or legal requirement. In situations where serious crimes such as money laundering or fraud are suspected, Highland 99 may be legally obligated to report to the authorities without notifying the player concerned — this is an obligation under Malaysia's Anti-Money Laundering, Anti-Terrorism Financing and Proceeds of Unlawful Activities Act 2001.
