We do not sell or rent your personal data to third parties.

We may disclose your personal information if required by law, regulation, or other legal subpoena or warrant.

We shall ensure that the transfer of the Personal Data to the recipient is compliant with applicable Data Protection Legislation and that the same obligations are imposed on the processor as is imposed on us.

DATA RETENTION

However, when you choose to close your Player Account, we will retain some personal data for legitimate business interests and legal compliance, as set out in this Privacy Policy.

The data will be stored for a minimum period of 5 years after the termination of your relationship with the Company or the last transaction made in accordance with applicable laws, such as anti-money laundering laws.

Our security procedures include the use of SSL encryption, data security protocols, and system access controls. In addition, we have implemented strong verification and authentication mechanisms to protect your Player Account from unauthorized access.
