What This Policy Covers

Six key areas that define how crickya handles your personal information — from collection to deletion.

What Data We Collect

Crickya collects only the data needed to operate your account, process payments, and comply with legal obligations. We don't collect data we don't need, and we don't keep it longer than necessary.

How We Use Your Data

Your data is used to run your crickya account, process deposits and withdrawals, verify your identity, and send you relevant account communications. It is never sold to third parties for marketing.

Who We Share Data With

Data is shared only with payment processors (bKash, Nagad, Rocket), identity verification providers, and regulatory bodies where required by law. No marketing data sharing, ever.

How We Protect Your Data

All personal data at crickya is stored with AES-256 encryption. Access is restricted to authorised personnel only. Regular security audits are conducted to identify and address vulnerabilities.

Your Rights Over Your Data

You have the right to access, correct, export, and delete your personal data held by crickya. Requests are handled within 30 days. Contact crickya support to exercise any of your data rights.

Cookies & Tracking

Crickya uses essential cookies to keep your session active and functional cookies to remember your preferences. No third-party advertising cookies are used on the crickya platform.

Your privacy matters. By registering at crickya or using any part of the platform, you confirm that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy. If you have questions about how your data is handled, contact crickya support at any time.

1 Introduction

Crickya ("we", "us", "the platform") is committed to protecting the privacy of every player who registers and plays on the crickya platform. This Privacy Policy describes how crickya collects, uses, stores, and shares your personal data when you use our website or mobile application.

This policy applies to all registered players, visitors to the crickya website, and anyone who contacts crickya support. It should be read alongside the crickya Terms and Conditions, which govern your use of the platform as a whole.

Crickya takes a straightforward approach to privacy: we collect what we need, we use it only for the purposes stated here, and we protect it with industry-standard security measures. We do not sell your data, and we do not share it with anyone who doesn't need it to help us run the platform.

2 Data We Collect

Crickya collects personal data in three main ways: information you provide directly, information generated by your use of the platform, and information received from third-party service providers such as payment processors and identity verification services.

  • Residential address and country of residence.
  • Email address and mobile phone number.

3 How We Use Your Data

Crickya uses your personal data only for the purposes described in this policy. We do not use your data for purposes that are incompatible with those stated here without first obtaining your consent.

  • Account Management: To create, maintain, and manage your crickya account, including processing deposits and withdrawals, updating your account details, and responding to support requests.
  • Identity Verification: To verify your age and identity as required by our licensing obligations. This includes checking documents you submit against third-party verification databases.
  • Payment Processing: To process deposits and withdrawals via bKash, Nagad, and Rocket, and to detect and prevent fraudulent transactions.
  • Legal Compliance: To comply with anti-money laundering (AML) regulations, responsible gaming obligations, and any other legal requirements applicable to the crickya platform.
  • Platform Security: To detect and prevent fraud, cheating, and unauthorised account access. This includes monitoring login patterns and gameplay activity for anomalies.
  • Responsible Gaming: To monitor gaming activity for signs of problem gambling and to enforce responsible gaming tools such as deposit limits and self-exclusion.
  • Service Communications: To send you account-related notifications such as deposit confirmations, withdrawal updates, and security alerts. These communications are not optional as they are necessary for account operation.
  • Platform Improvement: To analyse aggregated, anonymised usage data to improve the crickya platform, fix bugs, and develop new features.

No marketing emails without consent. Crickya will only send you promotional communications if you have opted in to receive them. You can opt out at any time via your account settings or by contacting support.

4 Legal Basis for Processing

Crickya processes your personal data on the following legal bases, depending on the purpose of the processing:

  • Contract Performance: Processing necessary to fulfil our obligations to you under the crickya Terms and Conditions — including account management, payment processing, and customer support.
  • Legal Obligation: Processing required to comply with applicable laws, including AML regulations, age verification requirements, and regulatory reporting obligations.
  • Legitimate Interests: Processing for fraud prevention, platform security, and responsible gaming monitoring, where these interests are not overridden by your privacy rights.
  • Consent: Processing for optional purposes such as marketing communications, where you have given explicit consent. You may withdraw consent at any time.

5 Data Sharing

Crickya does not sell your personal data to any third party. Data is shared only in the following limited circumstances, and only to the extent necessary for the stated purpose:

  • Payment Processors: bKash, Nagad, and Rocket receive transaction data necessary to process your deposits and withdrawals. These providers operate under their own privacy policies and are bound by contractual data protection obligations with crickya.
  • Identity Verification Providers: Our KYC provider receives copies of identity documents you submit for verification. Documents are processed securely and are not retained by the provider beyond the verification period.
  • Fraud Prevention Services: Transaction and device data may be shared with our fraud screening provider to detect and prevent fraudulent activity on the platform.
  • Regulatory Authorities: Crickya may be required to share data with licensing authorities, financial regulators, or law enforcement agencies where required by law or court order.
  • Business Transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of the crickya business, your data may be transferred to the acquiring entity. You will be notified of any such transfer and given the opportunity to close your account if you do not wish your data to be transferred.

All third-party data processors used by crickya are bound by contractual data protection agreements. They may only use your data for the specific purpose for which it was shared and must handle it in accordance with applicable data protection law.

6 Data Security

Crickya takes the security of your personal data seriously. We implement technical and organisational measures designed to protect your data against unauthorised access, loss, destruction, or alteration.

  • All data transmitted between your device and the crickya platform is encrypted using TLS 1.3.
  • Personal data stored on crickya servers is encrypted at rest using AES-256 encryption.
  • Access to personal data is restricted to authorised crickya personnel who require it to perform their job functions. Access is logged and audited regularly.
  • Crickya conducts regular security assessments and penetration testing to identify and address vulnerabilities.
  • Payment data is handled in accordance with PCI-DSS standards. Crickya does not store full payment credentials on its own servers.

Despite these measures, no online platform can guarantee absolute security. If you become aware of any unauthorised access to your crickya account, contact support immediately and change your password.

Protect your own account. Crickya will never ask for your password via email, live chat, or phone. If you receive a message asking for your crickya password, do not respond and report it to support immediately.

7 Data Retention

Crickya retains your personal data for as long as your account is active and for a period after account closure as required by applicable law and our licensing obligations. Specific retention periods are as follows:

  • Account and Identity Data: Retained for the duration of your account and for a minimum of 5 years after account closure, as required by AML regulations.
  • Transaction Records: Retained for a minimum of 5 years after the transaction date, as required by financial regulations.
  • Gaming History: Retained for the duration of your account and for 2 years after account closure.
  • Support Communications: Retained for 2 years after the last communication, unless the communication relates to a dispute or legal matter, in which case it is retained until the matter is resolved.
  • Technical and Log Data: Retained for 12 months from the date of collection, after which it is anonymised or deleted.

When data is no longer required, it is securely deleted or anonymised so that it can no longer be linked to you as an individual. Anonymised data may be retained indefinitely for statistical and analytical purposes.
