At ak8, your privacy is more than a legal obligation — it is our genuine commitment. We protect every detail of your personal data with advanced encryption and transparent, responsible data management practices.
Six core privacy protection principles we implement to ensure every member's personal data is always safeguarded
All data transmitted between your device and ak8 servers is protected with 256-bit SSL encryption — the same highest-grade security standard used by leading banking institutions worldwide.
Member personal data is stored on secured servers with restricted access and 24-hour monitoring. We use a multi-layered data isolation system to prevent any unauthorised access.
Ak8 is fully compliant with Malaysia's Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA). All data collection and usage processes are carried out within the established legal framework.
Ak8 has never and will never sell, rent, or transfer members' personal data to third parties for marketing purposes. Your data belongs to you — we only use it to deliver the best possible service.
Your ak8 account is protected with two-factor authentication (2FA) to ensure only you can access it. This additional security layer blocks any unauthorised login attempts.
As an ak8 member, you have the full right to access, correct, and request deletion of your personal data at any time. Requests will be processed within 14 business days.
