Age verification is conducted as a mandatory step of the KYC process. Any User found during KYC review or subsequent monitoring to be under the age of 21 will have their Account immediately suspended and permanently closed. All Personal Data collected in respect of an underage User will be deleted in accordance with bgw999's data retention policy, subject to any retention obligations that arise from the identification of an underage gambling incident.

13 Marketing Communications

bgw999 may send you promotional communications — including bonus offers, PSL cricket betting promotions, new game announcements, and loyalty programme updates — by email or in-platform notification where you have consented to receive them or where bgw999 has a legitimate interest in communicating relevant offers based on your account activity.

• You may opt out of receiving marketing communications at any time by clicking the unsubscribe link in any marketing email, by adjusting your communication preferences within your bgw999 Account settings, or by contacting bgw999 support directly.

• bgw999 does not share your contact details with third parties for their own marketing purposes.
• bgw999 does not send SMS marketing messages without your explicit prior consent.

Where Personal Data is transferred internationally, bgw999 ensures that appropriate safeguards are in place — including contractual data processing agreements that impose data protection standards equivalent to those under which bgw999 operates. bgw999 does not transfer Personal Data to jurisdictions that do not provide an adequate level of data protection without first implementing appropriate contractual safeguards.
