If you believe that personal data from an individual under the age of 21 has been inadvertently collected, please contact us immediately at [email protected] and we will take prompt action to delete such data and close the associated account.

These include, but are not limited to, Malaysian payment providers (Touch 'n Go eWallet, Boost, GrabPay, DuitNow, FPX, Maybank, CIMB, Public Bank) and international payment networks (Visa, Mastercard).
Each third-party service provider operates under its own privacy policy and data handling practices. Spingo is not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party providers accessed through the Platform.
