1 Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how pklock collects, uses, stores and protects the personal data of players who register and use the pklock platform. pklock is committed to handling your personal information responsibly and transparently, in line with applicable data protection standards.

By creating a pklock account or using any part of the pklock platform, you acknowledge that you have read this Privacy Policy and understand how your data will be handled. If you do not agree with any part of this policy, you should not register an account or use the pklock platform.

This policy was last updated in January 2025. pklock will notify registered players of any material changes via email before the updated policy takes effect.

2 Data We Collect

3 How We Use Your Data

pklock uses the personal data it collects for specific, legitimate purposes. We do not use your data in ways that are incompatible with the purposes for which it was originally collected. The main purposes for which pklock processes your personal data are set out below.

  • To create and manage your pklock account, including verifying your identity and age.

4 Legal Basis for Processing

pklock processes your personal data on one or more of the following legal bases, depending on the specific purpose of the processing:

  • Contract performance — processing your data is necessary to provide the pklock service you have signed up for, including account management and payment processing.
  • Legal obligation — pklock is required by law to collect and retain certain data for anti-money laundering compliance, age verification and fraud prevention.
  • Legitimate interests — pklock has a legitimate interest in processing data to detect fraud, improve the platform and protect the security of all players.
  • Consent — where pklock relies on your consent, such as for marketing communications, you can withdraw that consent at any time from your account settings.

Where pklock relies on consent as the legal basis for processing, withdrawing your consent will not affect the lawfulness of any processing that took place before the withdrawal.

5 Data Sharing

pklock does not sell, rent or trade your personal data to any third party. We share your data only in the limited circumstances described below, and only with parties who are contractually required to handle it securely and in accordance with applicable data protection standards.

  • Payment processors — bKash, Nagad, Rocket and bank partners receive the payment data necessary to process your deposits and withdrawals.
  • Identity verification providers — pklock uses third-party KYC services to verify your identity and age as required by law. These providers receive only the data necessary for verification.
  • IT and platform service providers — companies that help pklock operate its servers, databases and security systems may have access to data as part of their service delivery, under strict confidentiality agreements.
  • Regulatory and law enforcement authorities — pklock will disclose personal data to government or regulatory bodies where required to do so by law or valid legal process.
  • Fraud prevention agencies — pklock may share data with fraud prevention services to protect the platform and its players from financial crime.

pklock will never share your personal data with advertisers, data brokers or any party for commercial marketing purposes without your explicit consent.

pklock will never ask for your password via email, live chat or phone. If you receive a message claiming to be from pklock and asking for your password, do not respond — report it to [email protected] immediately.

10 Children and Minors

The pklock platform is strictly for adults aged 18 and over. pklock does not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under the age of 18. If you are a parent or guardian and believe that a minor has registered on pklock or provided personal data to pklock, please contact us immediately at [email protected].

Upon receiving a verified report that a minor has registered on pklock, we will close the account immediately, delete all associated personal data and return any deposited funds to the payment method used, in accordance with our underage gambling policy.

pklock uses age verification checks during registration and at the point of first withdrawal to ensure that all players meet the minimum age requirement. If age cannot be verified, the account will be suspended until verification is complete.
