Data Security Methods
mcw live uses industry-standard technology and processes to protect user data.
- SSL encryption: HTTPS protocol is active on all pages of the site, so data cannot be read by third parties during transfer.
- Password hashing: Passwords are never stored in plain text — only an encrypted hash is kept.
- Restricted access: Only authorised staff can access specific data, and a record of every access is maintained.
- Regular security reviews: Regular security audits are conducted to identify system vulnerabilities.
- OTP verification: OTP verification is mandatory for important changes or large transactions.
- Data backup: Secure backups of data are maintained so that no information is lost due to a technical issue.
If a security breach occurs, mcw live will promptly notify affected users and take corrective action.
Data Retention Period
mcw live retains data for as long as it is needed to fulfil the relevant purpose.
- Active accounts: All data is retained for as long as the account remains active.

- Transaction records: Financial transaction data is retained for long-term auditing and dispute resolution.
- Support conversations: Customer service records are kept for a limited period.
Once the specified retention period ends, data is securely deleted or anonymised so that the individual is no longer identifiable.
