3 Purpose of Personal Data Processing

979 processes your personal data only for lawful and transparent purposes. Each processing purpose is supported by an appropriate legal basis — whether consent, contract, legal obligation, or legitimate interest:

4 Data Sharing and Disclosure

979 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to any third party for commercial purposes. However, there are limited situations where we may need to share your data with certain parties:

  • Trusted Service Providers — Companies that assist us in operating the platform, including payment providers, cloud service providers, identity verification companies, and technical support providers that have signed strict confidentiality agreements with 979
  • Game Providers — Minimal game session data may be shared with game providers to ensure smooth gameplay, resolution of technical disputes, and verification of game outcomes
  • Regulatory & Licensing Authorities — When required by law, court order, or lawful directive from the relevant authorities, 979 will disclose only the data necessary within the specified scope
  • Fraud Investigation — In cases of suspected fraud, data may be shared with fraud prevention agencies, financial institutions, or relevant law enforcement bodies
  • Business Acquisition — In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of company assets, player data will be transferred as part of the business assets subject to the same privacy commitments

All third parties that receive data from 979 are required to handle such data in accordance with security and confidentiality standards at least equivalent to those we uphold.

5 Data Security and Protection

979 continually invests in a comprehensive cybersecurity infrastructure to ensure your personal data is always protected against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. Key security measures we implement include:

  • 256-bit SSL/TLS encryption for all data communications between users' devices and 979 servers
  • Encryption at rest for all personal and financial data stored in our databases
  • Two-factor authentication (2FA) is available for all player accounts to enhance login security
  • 24/7 security monitoring by a dedicated cybersecurity team using automated threat detection systems
  • Regular penetration testing conducted by qualified independent third parties
  • Role-based access control ensuring that only authorised staff can access players' personal data
  • Comprehensive audit logs recording all access to personal data for accountability purposes
While we implement comprehensive security measures, no system can guarantee 100% absolute security. We encourage you to play your part in protecting your account by using a strong password, enabling 2FA, and never sharing your login credentials with anyone.

10 Child Protection

The 979 platform is strictly for adults aged 18 and above. We firmly prohibit use of the platform by underage individuals and do not knowingly collect personal data from children or minors.

979 employs an automated age verification system during registration to prevent minors from signing up. Should we find that personal data has been collected from an underage user, we will take immediate action to delete that data and close the account in question.

Parents or guardians who discover that their child has registered or used the 979 platform without authorisation are requested to contact our support team immediately so that prompt action can be taken.
