paristogel Privacy Policy for Malaysian Users

Introduction

This Privacy Policy applies to all personal information collected through the paristogel website, account registration process, payment functions, customer support channels and any associated services. References to "we", "our" or "paristogel" mean the paristogel website and its operating entity. References to "you" or "your" mean the individual accessing or using paristogel.

paristogel is an English-language entertainment information service intended for Malaysian adults aged 21 and above. Where this policy refers to Malaysian payment brands such as Touch 'n Go eWallet, Boost, GrabPay, DuitNow, FPX, Maybank, CIMB, Public Bank or Hong Leong, those references reflect payment options that may be available subject to account status and provider availability.

This policy should be read together with the paristogel Terms & Conditions and Responsible Gambling guidance. If you have any privacy-related question, please contact us using the details in Section 11 of this document.

Information We Collect

paristogel may collect the following categories of personal data:

• Registration information: Full name, date of birth, email address, phone number and residential address. This information is used to create and maintain a unique paristogel account.
• Identity verification documents: A copy of a valid MyKad, Malaysian driving licence or passport, a proof of address document issued within the previous three months, and in some cases a selfie holding the identity document. These are collected for KYC and payment security purposes.
• Payment information: Bank account numbers, e-wallet identifiers and transaction records associated with MYR deposits and withdrawals. paristogel does not store full card numbers or card security codes on its own servers.
• Technical data: IP address, browser type, operating system, device identifiers, referral URL and session timestamps. This data supports security monitoring, fraud detection and website performance analysis.
• Communications: Content of messages sent to paristogel support, including account queries, withdrawal issues and complaint correspondence.
• Responsible gambling data: Deposit limits, cooling-off requests, self-exclusion periods and session activity where relevant to player protection obligations.

Lawful Basis and Purpose of Processing

paristogel processes personal data only where a lawful basis applies:

• Contractual necessity: Processing required to create and manage your account, process MYR deposits and withdrawals, respond to support requests and deliver the services described in the paristogel Terms & Conditions.
• Legal obligation: Processing required to comply with applicable anti-money laundering, identity verification, payment compliance or regulatory requirements including KYC checks.
• Legitimate interest: Processing used for security monitoring, fraud prevention, service improvement and website analytics, where these interests do not override individual privacy rights.
• Consent: Processing for optional communications or marketing where you have expressly agreed. Consent may be withdrawn at any time by contacting support.

paristogel does not make automated decisions about individuals that produce legal or similarly significant effects without a human review stage where required. If you believe a decision affecting your account was made incorrectly, contact support with the relevant details.

Data Sharing and Third-Party Processors

paristogel may share personal information with the following categories of third party, limited to what is necessary for the stated purpose:

• Payment service providers: Banks and e-wallet operators involved in processing MYR deposits or withdrawals, including FPX infrastructure providers, DuitNow operators and card-scheme participants.
• Identity and KYC verifiers: Providers that confirm the authenticity of Malaysian identity documents, proof of address records and selfie comparisons.
• Cloud and hosting infrastructure: Data centre and server providers that store account, transaction and support records under confidentiality obligations.
• Fraud-prevention and security partners: Services that analyse transaction patterns, IP behaviour and device data to detect suspicious account activity.
• Legal and regulatory authorities: Where paristogel is required by law, court order or a competent authority to disclose personal information.

paristogel does not sell personal data to advertisers, data brokers or unrelated commercial entities. Third-party processors are required to maintain appropriate security standards and may only use personal data for the purpose for which it was shared.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

paristogel uses cookies and similar technologies including session tokens, local storage identifiers and analytics scripts. The main purposes are:

• Essential cookies: Required to maintain your logged-in session, remember preferences and support security features. These cannot be disabled without impairing website function.
• Analytics cookies: Used to understand traffic patterns, page performance and user navigation. Aggregated and anonymised where possible.
• Security cookies: Help identify unusual login attempts, repeated failed authentication or suspicious request patterns associated with a device or IP range.

You may manage cookie preferences through your browser settings. Disabling essential cookies may prevent the paristogel account and transaction functions from working correctly. Third-party analytics services used by paristogel are bound by their own privacy policies.

Data Retention

paristogel retains personal data for as long as the account remains active and for a reasonable period following closure, in order to satisfy regulatory obligations, resolve disputes, process final payments and respond to legal requests. The specific retention period may depend on:

• Applicable anti-money laundering and payment record requirements.
• Outstanding disputes, complaints or self-exclusion periods.
• Legal proceedings or authority requests that require data preservation.

When retention is no longer required or justified, paristogel will delete or anonymise personal data in a manner consistent with its security obligations. Deletion requests may be subject to overriding legal retention requirements.

International Data Transfers

Personal data collected by paristogel may be stored or processed on servers located outside Malaysia, including in jurisdictions where data protection laws differ from those in Malaysia. Where data is transferred internationally, paristogel takes reasonable steps to ensure that recipient processors maintain security and confidentiality standards consistent with this Privacy Policy.

Users in Kuala Lumpur, Penang, Johor Bahru, Petaling Jaya, Shah Alam and other Malaysian locations should be aware that cross-border data flows are a standard feature of cloud-hosted services. By using paristogel, you acknowledge this practice as described here.

User Rights

Subject to applicable law and paristogel's legal obligations, you may have the right to:

• Access: Request a summary of the personal data paristogel holds about your account.
• Correction: Ask paristogel to correct inaccurate or incomplete personal information linked to your account.
• Deletion: Request the removal of personal data where retention is no longer justified, subject to legal and regulatory retention obligations.
• Restriction: Request that processing of disputed or unnecessary data is paused while a concern is reviewed.
• Objection: Object to processing based on legitimate interest where your individual circumstances justify it.
• Withdrawal of consent: Withdraw previously given consent to optional processing at any time without affecting lawful processing carried out before withdrawal.

To exercise any of these rights, contact support using the details in Section 11. paristogel will respond within a reasonable time after confirming your identity. Some requests may be declined where overriding legal obligations apply.

Data Security

paristogel applies technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, alteration or disclosure. Measures include HTTPS encryption for data in transit, access controls limiting internal staff access to personal data, security monitoring of unusual account or transaction behaviour and periodic review of third-party processor security arrangements.

Users play an important role in account security. You must protect your paristogel username, password and any two-factor authentication code. Do not share login credentials, disclose your MyKad number or reveal banking PINs to anyone, including persons claiming to represent paristogel. Contact support immediately if you suspect unauthorised account access.

No internet transmission or storage system is entirely secure. paristogel cannot guarantee that data will never be affected by a security incident outside its control, but will take prompt steps to investigate and mitigate any verified breach in accordance with its legal obligations.
