This data is encrypted, stored on secure servers, and is never sold to third parties.
Our servers may be located outside your jurisdiction, but all data transfers use industry-standard encryption (SSL/TLS). We use reputable payment processors (QRIS, e-wallet, mobile banking, local payment, online payment, e-wallet, mobile banking, local payment, online payment, e-wallet) who sign data-processing agreements with merdekabet. Cookie and tracking technology is minimal—we use only essential cookies to maintain your session and to prevent fraud.

- To send you service updates, security alerts, and policy changes (not marketing unless you opted in).
- To improve our platform based on usage patterns and user feedback.
Identity verification and jurisdiction restrictions
We at merdekabet verify your identity before your first withdrawal to comply with AML regulations. If verification fails or if we discover that your account is registered in a jurisdiction where our services are prohibited by law, we may suspend your account and return your balance. This is not punitive—it is our legal obligation.
Our payment processors (including QRIS providers, e-wallet, mobile banking, local payment, online payment, e-wallet, and major Indonesian banks) have their own privacy policies and data-handling practices. We require them to sign data-processing agreements (DPA) guaranteeing that your payment data is handled securely. We do not control their practices beyond these agreements, so we recommend reviewing their privacy policies as well.
