  • Communications: To send users important account-related notifications, updates, and, where consent has been given, promotional communications

Lawful Basis for Processing

Personal information is processed on one or more of the following lawful bases:

  • User consent provided at the time of registration or during the course of using the services
  • Performance of a contract between the user and the platform
  • Compliance with a legal obligation applicable to the platform
  • Legitimate interests pursued by the platform, provided these do not override the rights and freedoms of the user

Access to Information

Users have the right to access, review, and manage the personal information held on their behalf. The following procedures apply:

Accessing Personal Data

Users may request a copy of the personal data held about them by contacting the customer support team. Requests will be processed within a reasonable timeframe and in accordance with applicable law. Verification of identity may be required before data is disclosed.

Correcting Personal Data

If any personal information is found to be inaccurate, incomplete, or outdated, users may request a correction. Requests for correction should be submitted through the account settings page or by contacting customer support directly.

Deleting Personal Data

Users may request the deletion of their personal data. However, certain information may be retained where required by law or for the fulfilment of legal obligations, such as those related to financial record-keeping or regulatory compliance.

Consent to Security and Payment Processing

By using the platform and its services, users acknowledge and consent to:

  • The performance of identity and security verification checks as required by applicable regulations
  • The processing of payment data by authorised third-party payment service providers for the purpose of completing financial transactions

These processes are necessary for the safe and compliant operation of the platform and form part of the standard terms of use.

Protection of Children’s Privacy

The platform is intended solely for individuals who are 18 years of age or older. Access to and use of the services by minors is strictly prohibited.

Age Verification

While Bet365 takes reasonable steps to restrict access by minors, the platform cannot independently verify the age of every user without the submission of valid identification documents. Users are required to provide accurate information during registration, including confirmation that they meet the minimum age requirement.

Data Collected from Minors

If it is discovered or credibly reported that an account belongs to an individual under the age of 18, the following steps will be taken:

  • The account will be suspended or closed immediately
  • Any personal data associated with the account will be deleted from active systems without undue delay

Parental Requests

A parent or legal guardian who believes that their child has created an account or submitted personal information may contact the platform’s support team. Upon verification of the request, all relevant personal data will be removed in accordance with applicable data protection obligations.

International Data Transfers

Bet365 operates through a network of partners and service providers located in multiple countries. As a result, personal data collected from users may be transferred to, stored in, or processed in countries outside India.

Basis for International Transfers

By registering for and using the services, users consent to the transfer of their personal data to countries where the platform’s operational and technical partners are based. Such countries may not have data protection laws equivalent to those in India.

Safeguards in Place

All international data transfers are conducted with appropriate safeguards to protect user information. These include:

  • Contractual obligations requiring all partner organisations to maintain the confidentiality and security of personal data
  • Data processing agreements that set out the responsibilities of each party in relation to personal information
  • Restrictions on the use of personal data by third parties beyond the agreed purpose

Users may contact the platform for further information regarding the specific safeguards applied to international data transfers.
