Saba Sports does not sell, rent, or commercialise members' personal data to any third party. However, there are limited situations where we may need to share your data with certain parties:

  • Third-Party Service Providers: We work with service providers that help us operate the platform – including payment gateway providers (to process Touch 'n Go, GrabPay, DuitNow, and other transactions), cloud service providers, and gaming software providers such as Evolution Gaming and Playtech. All such providers are bound by strict confidentiality agreements and may only use your data for purposes we have authorised.
  • Legal Requirements: Saba Sports may be required to disclose your data to Malaysian government authorities, law enforcement bodies, or courts where mandated by law or a valid court order.
  • Rights & Safety Protection: In cases where disclosure is necessary to protect Saba Sports's legal rights, prevent serious fraud, or safeguard the safety of players or the general public;
  • Business Transfer: If Saba Sports is involved in a merger, acquisition, or asset sale, user data may be transferred as part of that transaction, with appropriate notice provided to affected users.
Data Sharing Guarantee

In all of the data sharing cases above, Saba Sports ensures that the receiving party upholds data protection standards equivalent to or higher than our own. We never share your data with third-party advertisers for targeted advertising purposes.

Data Security Measures

Saba Sports invests seriously in security infrastructure to ensure all members' personal data remains protected at all times. The technical and organisational security measures we have in place include:

  • 256-bit SSL Encryption: All data communications between your browser/app and saba sports servers are encrypted using the latest TLS 1.3 protocol, rendering any intercepted data unreadable;
  • Static Data Encryption: All personal data stored in our databases is also encrypted using AES-256 algorithms;
  • Tiered Access Control: Only authorised Saba Sports staff with a legitimate work requirement may access members' personal data, with full audit logs recorded;
  • Intrusion Detection System: Our infrastructure is equipped with an IDS/IPS (Intrusion Detection/Prevention System) that monitors suspicious activity in real time, 24 hours a day;
  • Regular Security Assessments: We conduct regular penetration testing and independent security audits to identify and address vulnerabilities;
  • Two-Factor Authentication: Saba Sports' internal systems use multi-factor authentication for all access to sensitive databases;
  • Incident Response Plan: Saba Sports has clear procedures in place to respond to any data breaches, including notifying affected users within the timeframes prescribed by law.

While we take all reasonable precautions, no security system can guarantee 100% protection against every threat. You also share responsibility for keeping your account secure by using a strong password and never sharing your login credentials with anyone.

Data Retention Period

Saba Sports retains your personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy, or as required by applicable law. The following are our data retention guidelines:

Cross-Border Data Transfers

  • The same or higher technical security standards apply to data transferred outside Malaysia;

Your Privacy Is Our Priorities – Not Just an Obligation

Many online platforms claim to care about user privacy, but the true measure of that commitment lies in actions — not just words on a document. At Saba Sports, we want you to understand that protecting your personal data is not merely a legal obligation we need to fulfil. It is part of our company culture and a reflection of how we respect every member who has entrusted us with their personal information.

When you register with Saba Sports and provide your Malaysian phone number, email address, or use Touch 'n Go eWallet for deposits, you are trusting us with information that matters. We don't take that trust lightly. That's why we invest in robust security infrastructure, conduct regular independent security audits, and ensure every staff member with access to user data undergoes rigorous privacy training.

One area we'd like to highlight is your financial data. When you make a deposit using GrabPay, DuitNow, ShopeePay, or Boost, the only information we retain is the transaction ID and amount required for your account records. We do not store PIN numbers, passwords, or any login credentials for your e-wallet accounts. All payment processing is handled directly through a secure, licensed payment gateway — Saba Sports never acts as an intermediary that stores your sensitive financial details.

When it comes to marketing, Saba Sports believes in a respectful approach. We don't send irrelevant promotional emails or use intrusive marketing tactics. If you've opted in to receive marketing communications, we'll make sure what we send is relevant and genuinely useful — bonus offers, sports event information you may be interested in, or important platform updates. And if at any point you'd like to stop receiving these communications, our unsubscribe process is simple and immediate.

We also recognise that Malaysian players are becoming increasingly informed and aware of their digital privacy rights — and that's a development we welcome. The more players understand and exercise their rights to access, correct, or request deletion of their data, the more motivated we are to ensure our systems remain responsive and efficient in handling those requests. If you've previously tried to exercise your privacy rights with another platform and ran into difficulties, we invite you to compare that experience with Saba Sports. We are committed to processing all privacy requests within 14 business days.

Question FAQ – Privacy Policy

Answers to the most frequently asked questions about privacy and data protection at Saba Sports

Absolutely not. Saba Sports does not sell, rent, or share members' personal data with any third party for advertising or third-party marketing purposes. Your data is used solely for the purposes stated in this Privacy Policy – account management, transaction processing, platform security, legal compliance, and service communications. The third-party service providers we work with (such as payment gateways) are bound by strict confidentiality agreements and may only use your data for the specific functions we have authorised.

To request the deletion of your personal data, send an email to support@sabasports.best with the subject line "DATA DELETION REQUEST". Please include your full name and registered phone number for identity verification. We will respond within 14 business days. Please note that certain data cannot be deleted immediately due to legal obligations — for example, financial transaction records must be retained for 7 years under Malaysian law. In such cases, we will clearly explain which data can be deleted and which must be retained, along with the reasons why.

When your account is closed, whether at your own request or by Saba Sports, your personal data is not immediately deleted. This is because we have legal obligations to retain certain records for specified periods – financial records for 7 years, KYC documents for 5 years, and communication logs for 3 years after account closure. Once the applicable retention period has elapsed, all relevant data will be securely deleted or anonymised. You may contact us for more information about the specific data being retained in relation to your closed account.

Saba Sports does not store the PIN numbers, passwords, or login credentials for your Touch 'n Go eWallet, GrabPay, DuitNow, ShopeePay, Boost, or FPX accounts. When you make a deposit, you are redirected directly to a secure payment gateway operated by a licensed and verified provider — Saba Sports never acts as an intermediary that touches or stores those sensitive details. What we do retain is the transaction ID, amount, date, and payment method type for account records and financial auditing purposes. All such data is stored in a database encrypted with AES-256 encryption.
