How vcity Protects Your Privacy

Six core pillars underpinning vcity's data protection policy

256-bit SSL Encryption

All data transmitted between your device and vcity servers is protected by industry-standard 256-bit SSL encryption. Your sensitive information never travels exposed over the internet.

Strict Access Control

Only specifically authorised vcity staff may access members' personal data, and only for legitimate service purposes. All access is logged in our internal audit system.

No Data Sales

Vcity has never and will never sell, rent, or share members' personal data with third-party advertisers or marketers without your explicit and informed consent.

Secure & Integrated Servers

Member data is stored in licensed data centres with multi-layered physical and digital protection. Automatic backup systems ensure your data is never lost in any unforeseen situation.

Privacy by Default

Vcity's privacy settings are designed by default to provide maximum protection. You don't need to change any settings to keep your data safe — we've already taken care of that from the start.

PDPA Legal Compliance

Vcity's Privacy Policy is built in accordance with Malaysia's Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA) and international standards, ensuring your rights as a data owner are fully recognised.

1 Introduction & Scope of This Policy

Vcity ("we", "Platform") is committed to protecting the privacy and security of personal data belonging to every individual who uses our platform.

  • Use of any service, product, or feature provided by vcity

This policy is to be read together with Terms & Conditions vcity. In the event of any conflict between the two documents regarding privacy matters, this Privacy Policy shall serve as the primary reference.

2 Types of Personal Data We Collect

3 Purpose of Data Collection and Use

Vcity uses collected personal data solely for legitimate and transparent purposes. The following are the primary purposes for which vcity uses your data:

  • Account Management: Creating, maintaining, and managing your member account, including the required identity verification (KYC) process.
  • Transaction Processing: Processing deposits, withdrawals, and all other financial transactions accurately and securely.
  • Service Provision: Enabling you to access all features and games available on the vcity platform.
  • Security & Fraud Prevention: Detecting and preventing fraudulent activity, money laundering, or unauthorised access to our platform.
  • Legal Compliance: Meeting applicable legal, regulatory, and authority requirements, including anti-money laundering (AML) obligations.
  • Customer Support: Providing responsive, high-quality technical support and customer service.
  • Service Communications: Sending important notifications relating to your account, transactions, and service updates.
  • Platform Improvement: Analysing usage patterns to improve the overall user experience.
  • Marketing (with consent): Sending promotional information and special offers, only where you have given explicit consent.

Vcity will not use your personal data for any purpose not stated above without first obtaining your consent.

4 Legal Basis for Data Processing

Every instance of personal data processing carried out by vcity rests on a solid legal basis. We process your data under one of the following grounds:

  • Contract Fulfilment: Processing required to provide vcity's services to you in accordance with the agreed Terms and Conditions.
  • Legal Obligation: Processing required to comply with applicable laws, including Malaysia's PDPA, anti-money laundering legislation, and other regulatory requirements.
  • Legitimate Interest: Processing for the purposes of platform security, fraud prevention, and service improvement, which represent vcity's legitimate interests, provided such processing does not override your rights and freedoms.
  • Consent: For certain activities such as direct marketing and optional data sharing, we require your explicit consent, which may be withdrawn at any time.

If you wish to know the specific legal basis for any particular data processing activity, you may contact our privacy team and we will provide a detailed explanation.

5 Data Sharing with Third Parties

Vcity understands that your data privacy is a priority. We do not sell or rent your personal data to any third party. However, in certain limited circumstances, vcity may need to share your data with the following parties:

  • Payment Service Providers: To securely process your deposits and withdrawals through trusted, licensed payment platforms.
  • Identity Verification Service Providers: To conduct the KYC checks required for compliance with anti-money laundering laws.
  • Game Software Providers: Limited data required to enable access to third-party games available on the vcity platform.
  • Legal Authority: When required by law, court order, or a law enforcement agency with valid jurisdiction.
  • Technical Service Providers: Companies that provide vcity with technical infrastructure, server hosting, and cybersecurity services, all bound by strict confidentiality agreements.
Every third party working with vcity is required to meet data protection standards equal to or higher than those that apply to vcity itself. Binding data processing agreements are signed with all service providers before any data sharing takes place.

6 Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Vcity uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your user experience and ensure the platform functions properly. The following are the types of cookies we use:

  • Essential Cookies (Required): These cookies are required for core platform functions such as login session authentication and security. The platform cannot function properly without them.
  • Functional Cookies: Saving your preferences such as language, display settings, and information that makes repeated use of the platform more convenient.

7 Data Security Measures

Vcity continually invests in robust security infrastructure to ensure your personal data remains protected at all times. The technical and organisational measures we employ include:

  • End-to-End Encryption: All data in transit is secured with 256-bit SSL/TLS encryption. Sensitive data stored in databases is also encrypted using the latest industry standards.
  • Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): Members are encouraged to enable two-factor authentication for an additional layer of account security.
  • 24/7 Monitoring: Security monitoring systems operate around the clock to detect and respond to any threats in real time.
  • Regular Security Testing: Penetration testing and security audits are conducted regularly by independent security experts.
  • Multi-Level Access Control: Access to vcity's internal systems is restricted based on the principle of least privilege, ensuring each staff member can only access the data necessary for their role.

While vcity takes all reasonable steps to protect your data, no security system can guarantee 100% protection in every situation. In the event of a data security breach involving your personal information, vcity will notify you and the relevant authorities as required by law within the stipulated timeframe.

8 Data Retention Period

Vcity retains your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes stated in this Policy or as required by applicable law. Our general data retention guidelines are as follows:

  • Active Account Data: Retained for as long as your account is active and for a reasonable period after account closure for after-sales service purposes.
  • Financial Transaction Records: Retained for a minimum of seven (7) years in accordance with Malaysia's financial and tax legal requirements.
  • KYC Records & Identity Verification: Retained for a minimum of five (5) years after account closure to meet anti-money laundering legal requirements.
  • Support Communication Logs: Retained for three (3) years for service reference and dispute resolution purposes.
  • Technical and Analytics Data: Stored in anonymised form for a longer period for continuous platform improvement purposes.

Once the required retention period has elapsed, your personal data will be securely deleted or anonymised so it can no longer be identified. Our data deletion procedures follow industry standards to ensure data cannot be recovered.
