We may use your personal data, such as your name and email address, to send you marketing communications, updates about our services, or promotional offers. These communications could include information about upcoming live sports events, new features on the platform, special discounts, or other content we believe may be of interest to you based on your preferences and activity on our platform.

However, we only send you these marketing messages if you have explicitly provided your consent to receive such communications. Consent is typically given when you register an account with us or subscribe to our services, at which point you may be asked if you would like to receive marketing emails or updates.

You retain full control over your preferences for receiving marketing communications. If at any point you decide that you no longer wish to receive promotional content or updates, you can easily opt out. Each marketing email we send contains clear instructions on how to unsubscribe. By following these instructions, you will be removed from our mailing list, and we will no longer send you marketing communications. Alternatively, you can contact us directly to request the removal of your details from our marketing distribution.

Please note that opting out of marketing communications does not affect the non-promotional communications we send regarding your account, such as billing information (if any), service updates, or technical support notifications, which are essential for managing your account and ensuring a smooth experience on our platform.

Retention of Your Data

We retain your personal data for as long as it is necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, such as providing you with access to our services, managing your account, processing payments (if any), or ensuring a personalized experience on our platform. This means that as long as you continue to use our services or maintain an active account, we will securely store your personal information.

Additionally, we may retain your data to comply with legal obligations, such as those related to financial records, tax compliance, fraud prevention, or any other regulatory requirements imposed by the laws of Dubai and the UAE. For instance, we may be required to store certain transactional data for a specified period to comply with financial regulations.

Once your personal data is no longer needed for the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, and there is no legal requirement for its retention, we will take appropriate measures to securely delete or anonymize the information. This ensures that your data is protected from unauthorized access or misuse, even after we no longer require it.

Our data retention policy is designed to balance the need to provide continuous service to our users while ensuring compliance with legal and regulatory obligations, all while safeguarding your privacy and personal data.

Accuracy of Your Data

We are committed to maintaining the accuracy and integrity of the personal data we collect and store. To ensure that we provide you with the best possible service, we take steps to keep your personal information up-to-date, whether it's for account management, communication, or delivering content tailored to your preferences. Accurate data also helps us comply with legal requirements and maintain the security of your account.

However, you play an essential role in this process. As a user, you are responsible for ensuring that the information you provide to us is correct and current. This includes details such as your name, email address, billing information (if any needed), and any other data relevant to your account. If your circumstances change, for example, if you change your email address or move to a new location, it is your responsibility to promptly update this information through your account settings or by notifying us.

Keeping your information accurate helps us serve you better and avoid any disruptions to your services, such as billing issues, communication errors, or difficulties in account verification. If we become aware that certain information is outdated or incorrect, we may reach out to you to verify and update your details.

By maintaining accurate personal data, we can continue to provide you with a seamless and personalized experience, while also ensuring that we comply with our legal obligations and data protection policies.

Security of Your Data

We take your privacy and the security of your personal data seriously. To protect your information from unauthorized access, misuse, alteration, or destruction, we implement industry-standard security measures, including encryption, secure socket layer (SSL) technology, firewalls, and access controls. These safeguards are designed to ensure that your personal data is kept confidential and secure as it moves through our platform and is stored in our systems.

Our security protocols also extend to our internal processes, where we limit access to personal data to authorized personnel only, and ensure that they are bound by confidentiality agreements. In addition, we regularly update our security practices and employ advanced technologies to prevent data breaches, fraud, or unauthorized access to your account.

However, despite these robust efforts, it’s important to recognize that no system, whether online transmission or storage, can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Factors such as internet vulnerabilities, unauthorized third-party actions, or unforeseen technical issues may present risks to your data. Although we strive to maintain the highest level of security, we cannot provide an absolute guarantee against these risks.

We encourage you to take steps on your end to protect your personal information as well, such as using strong, unique passwords, keeping your login credentials confidential, and regularly monitoring your account for any suspicious activity.

While we are committed to protecting your personal data with the best available security measures, we acknowledge the inherent limitations of online systems and encourage vigilance in maintaining your privacy and security.

Transfer of Your Data to Third Parties & International Transfers

Your personal data may sometimes need to be transferred to and stored in countries outside of the United Arab Emirates with permission of respected authority (UAE). These countries may have different legal frameworks and data protection laws that may not provide the same level of protection as those in the UAE. For instance, we may use servers or work with third-party service providers, such as payment processors or content delivery networks, located in other regions to ensure the seamless operation of our platform.

To safeguard your personal data during these international transfers, we implement appropriate legal mechanisms and security measures that comply with the applicable data protection regulations in the UAE, including the provisions of the UAE Personal Data Protection Law. This means that, regardless of where your data is transferred, it will remain protected in line with the high standards we follow.

The steps we take to ensure the safety of your data during international transfers include:

  • Contractual Safeguards:We enter into legally binding agreements, such as data transfer contracts or standard contractual clauses, with any third parties or service providers located outside the UAE. These agreements impose strict confidentiality and data protection obligations on these entities, ensuring that they handle your personal data securely and in compliance with applicable laws.
  • Security Measures:We use advanced security protocols, such as encryption and access controls, to protect your data during transfer and storage, regardless of the destination country
  • Regulatory Compliance:We carefully assess the data protection regulations in the countries where your data may be transferred, and we only engage with partners who demonstrate compliance with internationally recognized data protection standards.

While these transfers are necessary to ensure the proper functioning of our services, we are committed to ensuring that your personal data is protected with the same level of care, even when it is processed or stored outside the UAE. Should you have any concerns about how your data is handled internationally, you are welcome to contact us for further clarification.
