This document applies to all users of the rich1988 platform, including the website, Android and iOS mobile apps, and any related services we offer. Please read this policy carefully in its entirety. If there is anything you do not understand or would like to know more about, our customer support team is available via Live Chat.

4 Information Sharing
Rich1988 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to any third party for commercial purposes. However, in certain situations, we may need to share your information with the following parties:

- Technology Provider: Companies providing technical infrastructure, cybersecurity, and analytics services — all bound by strict confidentiality agreements.
All third parties we work with are required to comply with data protection standards equal to or higher than our own policy. We will not share your data beyond what is necessary for the stated purposes.
5 Data Storage & Security
The security of your data is an absolute priority for rich1988. We continuously invest in the latest security technologies and procedures to ensure your information is always protected.
The technical and organizational measures we implement include:
- 256-bit SSL encryption for all data transmitted over the network.
- Data stored on high-performance servers with strict physical and digital access controls.
- Automatic hourly data backups to data centres in different locations to ensure service continuity.
- 24/7 security monitoring by our cybersecurity team to detect and respond to any threats.
- Regular internal and external security audits conducted by independent security experts.
- Strong password policy and mandatory two-factor authentication for all internal access.
Your data retention period depends on service requirements and legal obligations. Financial transaction data is retained for a minimum of 7 years to meet AML compliance requirements. General account data is retained for the duration your account is active and for 2 years after account closure, unless a longer period is required by law.
Important Reminder: While we implement comprehensive security measures, no digital system can be guaranteed 100% secure. You also play an important role by keeping your password and login details confidential.
