Frequently Asked Questions About Privacy

We collect data in five main categories, each for specific purposes:

  • Identity data: Name, date of birth, government ID (for KYC and 18+ verification)
  • Contact data: Phone number, email, WhatsApp number (for service communication)
  • Financial data: UPI ID, bank details, transaction history (for deposits/withdrawals)
  • Activity data: Bets placed, games played, login times (for service operation and pattern analysis)
  • Technical data: IP address, device info, cookies (for security and platform improvement)

We deliberately practice data minimization — we collect only what is necessary for service delivery, legal compliance, and player protection. We do not collect data we don't need.

Absolutely not. Sanatana777 does not sell, rent, lease, trade, or otherwise commercialize player data. This is one of our most fundamental commitments. Specifically:

  • We do not sell data to advertising networks
  • We do not sell data to marketing companies
  • We do not sell data to data brokers
  • We do not sell data to social media platforms
  • We do not allow third-party tracking pixels for advertising purposes

Our business model is built on operating a quality betting platform — not on monetizing player data. Many "free" services online survive by selling user data; this is the opposite of how we operate.

We use multiple layers of security specifically for sensitive financial and KYC data:

  • AES-256 encryption at rest: All KYC documents and financial records are encrypted in storage
  • TLS 1.3 encryption in transit: Data moving between your device and our servers is encrypted to bank-grade standards
  • Tokenization: Financial details are replaced with non-sensitive tokens for internal use
  • Restricted access: Only specifically authorized personnel can access KYC documents, on a strict need-to-know basis. All access is logged
  • PCI DSS compliance: Our payment infrastructure meets Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards
  • Regular security audits: Annual third-party security audits and penetration testing
  • Segregated storage: Sensitive data is stored separately from non-sensitive data with different access controls
  • Two-factor authentication: Available for all player accounts to prevent unauthorized access

Importantly, we do not store full credit card numbers, CVV codes, UPI PINs, or net banking passwords — these are handled exclusively by licensed payment service providers under their own security frameworks.

Different data types have different retention periods based on purpose and legal requirements:

  • Account and transaction records: 7 years after account closure (required by AML and tax law)
  • KYC documents: 5 years after account closure (required by AML regulations)
  • Customer support conversations: 3 years (for dispute resolution)
  • IP address logs: 12 months (for fraud prevention)
  • Marketing preferences: Until you opt out, then deleted within 30 days
  • Self-exclusion records: Permanently retained but anonymized after 7 years (this protects players from creating new accounts to bypass exclusion)

After retention periods expire, data is securely deleted or anonymized so it can no longer be linked to you. We do not keep data "just in case" — every retention period has a specific legal or operational justification.

Yes, you have the Right to Erasure (also called "Right to Be Forgotten"). To request data deletion:

  1. Message us on WhatsApp at wa.link/sanatana247 with subject "Data Deletion Request"
  2. We verify your identity (typically through KYC document re-verification)
  3. We process your request within 30 days (most within 7 days)
  4. You receive written confirmation when deletion is complete

What we will delete:

  • Marketing preferences and contact lists
  • Optional profile information (occupation, etc.)
  • Non-mandatory communications history (after 3 years)
  • Browser cookies and tracking data
  • Saved payment preferences

What must be retained for legal reasons:

  • Transaction records (7 years for AML/tax)
  • KYC documents (5 years for AML)
  • Self-exclusion records (permanently, for player protection)

Even retained data is anonymized where possible and stored under strict access controls. After mandatory retention periods expire, the data is automatically deleted.

We use cookies in several categories with different purposes:

  • Strictly necessary cookies: Login session management, security tokens. Cannot be disabled without breaking the platform
  • Functional cookies: Language preferences, regional settings, display options. Can be disabled but reduces convenience
  • Performance cookies: Page load times, error tracking, technical diagnostics. Help us improve the platform
  • Analytics cookies: Anonymized usage patterns. Opt-in only — disabled by default unless you consent
  • Marketing cookies: Personalized offers and promotions. Opt-in only — disabled by default

You can control cookies through:

  • Browser settings (block all cookies, block third-party only, etc.)
  • Cookie banner choices on first visit
  • Account preferences page (for analytics and marketing cookies)

Disabling strictly necessary cookies will break login functionality. Disabling other cookies has no impact on betting service quality, only on personalization. We respect "Do Not Track" browser signals.

We share minimum necessary data with specific categories of trusted parties:

Service providers we share with:

  • Payment processors (UPI gateways, banks) — for processing transactions only
  • KYC verification services — for ID document authentication
  • Cloud infrastructure providers — for secure data hosting (encrypted)
  • Customer support platforms — for ticket management
  • Game providers — for game session continuity (anonymized session tokens only)
  • Fraud detection services — for security analysis

All service providers operate under strict Data Processing Agreements requiring them to:

  • Use data only for the specific purpose we contract for
  • Maintain security standards equivalent to ours
  • Not retain data longer than necessary
  • Not subcontract without our approval

Legal authorities (only when legally required): Tax authorities, law enforcement with valid orders, regulatory bodies, courts. We do not voluntarily share with authorities; we require properly executed legal process.

What we never do: Sell data to advertisers, marketers, data brokers, or social media platforms. This is non-negotiable.

This is a legitimate concern. Our commitments in such scenarios:

If Sanatana777 is sold or merged:

  • Player data may transfer to the successor entity, but only if they commit to honoring this Privacy Policy or stronger
  • Players are notified at least 30 days before any transition
  • You have the option to close your account, withdraw your balance, and request data deletion before transfer
  • Any successor entity is contractually bound to respect existing privacy commitments

If Sanatana777 ceases operations:

  • All players are notified with reasonable advance time to withdraw balances
  • Player funds are held in segregated accounts protected from operational creditors
  • Personal data is securely deleted after legal retention periods expire
  • KYC and transaction data is transferred to a designated custodian for the legally required retention period, then destroyed

Our business is structured to protect player interests through commercial transitions. Player funds are segregated, and player data has clear protection commitments — these are not afterthoughts.

Despite our extensive security measures, no system is 100% breach-proof. Our incident response plan includes:

Immediate response (0-4 hours):

  • Containment of the breach to prevent further data exposure
  • Internal investigation by the security team
  • Forensic preservation of evidence

Assessment (4-24 hours):

  • Identification of affected players and data categories
  • Severity classification
  • Risk assessment for affected individuals

Notification (within 72 hours of confirmation):

  • Regulatory authorities notified per applicable data protection law
  • Affected players notified directly via WhatsApp/email/SMS
  • Notification includes: what happened, what data was affected, what actions to take, our response

Remediation:

  • Forced password resets if credentials may be exposed
  • Free credit monitoring if financial data is exposed
  • Account security upgrades
  • Root cause analysis and prevention measures

We take responsibility for breaches caused by failures on our side and provide appropriate remediation. Our annual security audits and continuous monitoring exist specifically to prevent breaches in the first place.

Opting out of marketing is easy and immediate:

  • WhatsApp: Send message "STOP MARKETING" to wa.link/sanatana247
  • SMS: Reply STOP to any promotional SMS
  • Email: Click "Unsubscribe" link in any email footer
  • Account settings: Toggle marketing preferences in your account dashboard

After opt-out:

  • Marketing communications stop within 24 hours
  • You will still receive transactional messages (deposit confirmations, withdrawal updates, security alerts) — these are not marketing
  • Your account functionality is not affected in any way
  • Marketing data is deleted from our systems within 30 days

You can re-subscribe anytime through your account settings. We respect your choice — opting out has zero negative consequences for your account, support quality, or service.
