bvgame Privacy Policy

1 Who We Are

bvgame operates the online casino and sports betting platform accessible at bvgame.org (the "Platform"). Throughout this Privacy Policy, references to "bvgame", "we", "us", and "our" refer to the operator of the bvgame Platform in its capacity as the data controller responsible for your personal data.

This Privacy Policy applies to all personal data collected through your use of the bvgame Platform, including data collected during account registration, deposits and withdrawals, gameplay, customer support interactions, and use of the bvgame website. It applies to all players accessing the Platform from Pakistan and any other jurisdiction where bvgame services are available.

2 Data We Collect

bvgame collects personal data from you in the following categories, depending on how you interact with the Platform:

2.1 Identity & Contact Data

Collected at registration and during KYC verification: full legal name, date of birth, gender, residential address (including city — such as Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, or Faisalabad), email address, and copies of government-issued identification documents such as a CNIC or passport.

2.2 Financial Data

Payment method details used to make deposits and receive withdrawals, including JazzCash wallet references, EasyPaisa transaction identifiers, HBL and UBL bank account details, and Meezan Bank transfer references. bvgame does not store full bank account numbers or mobile wallet PINs on its own servers.

2.3 Transaction Data

A complete record of all deposits, withdrawals, bonuses claimed, bets placed, casino games played, and account balance movements associated with your bvgame account.

2.4 Technical Data

IP address, browser type and version, device type and operating system, screen resolution, session timestamps, referring URL, and unique device identifiers collected automatically when you access the Platform.

2.5 Usage Data

Information about how you interact with the Platform, including pages visited, features used, games played, duration of sessions, and navigation paths through the site.

2.6 Communications Data

Records of all communications between you and bvgame support, including live chat transcripts, emails, and any documents submitted as part of a support request or dispute.

3 How We Use Your Data

bvgame uses the personal data it collects for the following specific purposes:

• To create and manage your bvgame account, including verifying your identity and age in accordance with our licensing obligations.
• To process deposits, withdrawals, and other financial transactions in Pakistani Rupees (PKR) via your chosen payment method.
• To deliver the sports betting and casino gaming services you have contracted to receive, including placing bets, awarding winnings, and applying bonuses.
• To detect, investigate, and prevent fraud, money laundering, match-fixing, and other prohibited activities on the Platform.
• To comply with applicable legal and regulatory obligations, including anti-money laundering (AML) and know-your-customer (KYC) requirements.
• To provide customer support and resolve complaints, disputes, and technical issues affecting your account.
• To send you service-related communications, such as account verification emails, deposit confirmations, and withdrawal notifications.
• To send you promotional and marketing communications, where you have given your consent to receive them, and where permitted by applicable law.
• To improve and optimise the Platform through analysis of usage patterns and player feedback.
• To enforce the bvgame Terms and Conditions and to exercise or defend legal claims where necessary.

4 Legal Basis for Processing

For each category of personal data processing carried out by bvgame, a valid legal basis exists as set out below:

• Contractual Necessity: Processing required to create your account, process payments, and deliver the gaming services you have signed up for.
• Legal Obligation: Processing required to comply with AML regulations, KYC obligations, tax reporting requirements, and any other applicable legal duty.
• Legitimate Interests: Processing for fraud detection, platform security, responsible gaming monitoring, and business analytics — where such interests are not overridden by your data protection rights.
• Consent: Processing for marketing communications and optional personalisation features, where you have given a clear, specific, and freely given consent that can be withdrawn at any time.

Where bvgame relies on your consent as the legal basis for any processing activity, you may withdraw that consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out prior to your withdrawal. To withdraw consent, please contact bvgame support or update your communication preferences within your account settings.

5 Cookies & Tracking

bvgame uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on the Platform to ensure proper functionality, enhance your experience, and collect analytics data. The following types of cookies are used:

5.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are essential for the Platform to function correctly. They enable core features such as session management, account authentication, and security controls. These cookies cannot be disabled without impairing Platform functionality.

5.2 Performance & Analytics Cookies

These cookies collect anonymised information about how players interact with the Platform — such as which pages are visited most frequently and whether any error messages are encountered. This data helps bvgame improve the Platform experience over time.

5.3 Functionality Cookies

These cookies remember your preferences and settings — such as your preferred language, last visited games, and display options — to provide a more personalised experience on subsequent visits.

5.4 Targeting & Marketing Cookies

Where you have provided consent, bvgame may use cookies to track your activity for the purpose of delivering relevant promotional content. You may withdraw this consent at any time by adjusting your cookie preferences via the consent management tool accessible in the Platform footer.

6 Data Sharing & Third Parties

bvgame does not sell your personal data. We share your data only with the following categories of third parties, and only to the extent necessary for the stated purpose:

• Payment Processors: JazzCash, EasyPaisa, HBL, UBL, Meezan Bank, and cryptocurrency processing partners receive the minimum data necessary to process your deposits and withdrawals securely.
• Identity Verification Providers: Third-party KYC and age verification services receive identity documents and personal details solely for the purpose of conducting legally required verification checks.
• Game Suppliers: Licensed third-party game providers receive a session token and anonymised player identifier to facilitate game play. They do not receive your full name, contact details, or payment information.
• Fraud Prevention Services: Anonymised or pseudonymised transaction data may be shared with fraud detection partners to identify and prevent prohibited activities.
• Regulatory & Law Enforcement Authorities: bvgame is legally obligated to disclose personal data to regulators, financial intelligence units, or law enforcement agencies where required by applicable law or a valid legal order.
• Professional Advisors: Legal, audit, and compliance advisors may receive personal data on a strictly confidential basis where required to advise bvgame on its legal obligations.

7 International Data Transfers

bvgame's primary data infrastructure is located in secure data centres. In the course of providing the Platform, your personal data may be transferred to and processed in jurisdictions outside of Pakistan — for example, where a third-party service provider operates its servers in another country.

Where such transfers occur, bvgame ensures that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your data to a standard equivalent to that required under applicable data protection law. These safeguards may include:

• Standard contractual clauses incorporated into agreements with third-party data processors.
• Processing only with vendors who maintain internationally recognised information security certifications (such as ISO/IEC 27001).
• Data processing agreements that contractually bind third parties to equivalent data protection obligations.

If you would like further information about the safeguards applied to any specific international data transfer, please contact bvgame at [email protected].

8 Data Retention

bvgame retains personal data only for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected, or as required by applicable legal, regulatory, or contractual obligations. The following general retention periods apply:

• Account Data: Retained for the duration of the account relationship and for a minimum of five (5) years following permanent account closure, as required by AML regulations.
• Transaction & Financial Records: Retained for a minimum of five (5) years from the date of the transaction, in accordance with financial record-keeping obligations.
• KYC & Identity Documents: Retained for a minimum of five (5) years following account closure, or longer if required by the applicable regulatory framework.
• Support Communications: Retained for a maximum of three (3) years from the date of the interaction, unless the communication relates to an ongoing dispute or legal matter.
• Marketing Consent Records: Retained for the period during which consent is active, plus two (2) years from the date of withdrawal, as evidence of lawful processing.

Upon expiry of the applicable retention period, personal data is securely and irreversibly deleted or rendered permanently anonymous such that it can no longer be attributed to any individual.

9 Data Security

bvgame implements a comprehensive set of technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, destruction, alteration, or disclosure. These measures include:

• 256-bit SSL/TLS encryption for all data in transit between your device and bvgame servers.
• Encryption of sensitive personal data at rest within bvgame's database infrastructure.
• Role-based access controls that restrict internal access to personal data on a strict need-to-know basis.
• Multi-factor authentication requirements for all bvgame staff accessing production systems.
• Regular independent security assessments and penetration testing of the Platform.
• Comprehensive access logging and anomaly detection systems that alert the security team to unusual activity.
• A documented data breach response procedure that includes notification to affected players and regulatory authorities where required by law.

11 Children & Minors

The bvgame Platform is strictly intended for adults aged 21 years and over. bvgame does not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under the age of 21. The Platform employs age verification procedures during the registration process to identify and prevent access by minors.

If bvgame becomes aware that personal data has been collected from an individual under the age of 21, that data will be immediately and permanently deleted, the associated account will be closed, and any deposits made to that account will be returned to the original payment source. Any winnings associated with such an account will be forfeited.

If you have reason to believe that a minor has created a bvgame account, please contact us immediately at [email protected] so that the matter can be investigated and resolved promptly.

12 Marketing Communications

bvgame may send you promotional and marketing communications — including information about new games, bonuses, and special offers — by email or other electronic means, subject to the following conditions:

• We will only send marketing communications where you have given your explicit opt-in consent during registration or subsequently through your account settings.
• Every marketing communication will include a clearly visible and functional unsubscribe mechanism.
• Opting out of marketing communications will not affect your ability to use any bvgame service or receive essential service communications.
• bvgame will process your opt-out request within 10 business days of receipt. You may continue to receive a small number of communications while your opt-out is being processed.

You may update your marketing communication preferences at any time through your bvgame account settings or by contacting support at [email protected].
