6 Data Protection and Security

golbat treats the security of your information as its top priority. The technical and administrative measures we have in place include:

All data transmitted on our website and app is protected by SSL encryption. Your password and financial information are stored in encrypted form — no staff member can read them directly.

6.2 — Access control

Access to your information is limited to staff who need it. Every access is logged and regularly audited.

6.3 — In the event of a security breach

If a data security breach occurs and your information is at risk, golbat will notify you as quickly as possible and take the steps necessary to address the situation.

7 Data Retention Period

7.1 — Active accounts

While your account is active, we retain your profile information, transaction history, and gaming records. This is necessary for operating the service.

7.2 — After account closure

Even after an account is closed, certain information must be retained for a set period due to legal and regulatory obligations. Once that period has passed, the information is securely deleted or anonymised.

8 Your Data Rights

golbat believes you should have control over your own information. You can contact us about any of the following:

8.1 — Right to access your information

You can request to view the personal information stored in your account. We will make sure you are informed about what data we hold.

8.2 — Right to correct your information

If any information in your profile is incorrect, you can request a correction. However, once identity verification documents have been approved, additional verification may be required to change them.

8.3 — Right to opt out of promotional messages

You can unsubscribe from promotional emails or SMS at any time. This will not stop transaction-related and security notifications — those are part of the service.

8.4 — Right to close your account
