8999be is committed to handling your personal data responsibly and transparently. We do not sell your personal data to third parties unrelated to the delivery of our services. We use industry-standard security practices including SSL encryption to protect your information in transit and at rest. This policy describes in clear terms what data we collect, why we collect it, how long we keep it, and what rights you have over it.
Quick Summary: We collect only the data we need to operate your account securely, process payments, verify your identity, and comply with anti-fraud and responsible gaming obligations. We do not sell your data. You have the right to access, correct, and request deletion of your personal information at any time.
Information 8999be Collects About You
We collect personal data in several ways β directly from you during registration, automatically through your use of the platform, and from third-party verification services.
How 8999be Handles Your Data
Six core commitments that guide our approach to data privacy at 8999be.
Data Minimisation
We collect only the personal data that is strictly necessary to operate your account, verify your identity, process transactions, and meet our responsible gaming and anti-fraud obligations. We do not request information we do not need.
Secure Storage and Transmission
All personal data transmitted between your device and 8999be is protected by SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) encryption. Data stored on our servers is protected by access controls and encrypted at rest. We conduct regular security reviews to maintain platform integrity.
No Data Sales to Third Parties
8999be does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to third-party companies for their own marketing purposes. Any data sharing with third parties is limited to what is necessary to deliver our services β such as payment processors, KYC verification providers, and game studios.
Defined Retention Periods
We retain your personal data only for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this policy, or as required by applicable anti-money laundering, KYC, and record-keeping obligations. Account data is typically retained for a minimum of five years after account closure.
Transparency and Consent
We are clear about what data we collect and why. Where we rely on your consent as a legal basis for processing β for example, for marketing communications β we will ask for that consent explicitly and give you the ability to withdraw it at any time through your account settings or by contacting support.
Your Rights, Always Respected
You have the right to access a copy of the personal data we hold about you, request corrections, ask for deletion where legally permissible, and object to certain types of processing. We commit to responding to all data rights requests within 30 days of receipt.
