Access to Personal Information

Users registered on the Melbet platform in India have the ability to view and manage the personal information held in their accounts at any time through the account settings section. Should any details be inaccurate or outdated, users may request corrections directly through the platform interface or by contacting the customer support team, which will process such requests in accordance with the applicable data protection framework.

In instances where a user wishes to modify or delete specific data, a formal request may be submitted to the support team. Melbet will assess and respond to each request within a reasonable timeframe, taking into account any legal obligations that may require certain data to be retained. Users acknowledge that account-related security checks, including identity verification, may be necessary before any modifications are carried out.

By using the platform, users also consent to the handling of their payment information by authorised electronic payment service providers engaged by Melbet. These providers are bound by strict confidentiality and data security obligations and are permitted to process financial data only to the extent required to complete the relevant transactions. Melbet maintains ongoing oversight of these third-party arrangements to ensure that user privacy and data security are preserved at all times.

Protection of Minors

The Melbet platform is intended exclusively for users who are 18 years of age or older. Access to the platform’s services, including betting and gaming features, is strictly prohibited for individuals below this age threshold. Melbet does not knowingly collect or process personal data from minors.

  4. Parents or legal guardians who believe their child has registered on the platform may submit a formal request to have the account reviewed and the associated data deleted.
  5. Upon confirmation that an account belongs to a minor, all personal data linked to that account will be permanently deleted without undue delay.
  6. Users are encouraged to make use of available parental control tools and responsible gambling resources to prevent underage access.

International Transfer of Personal Data

Such transfers are necessary to deliver the full range of platform services and to fulfil contractual and regulatory obligations. By continuing to use the platform, users acknowledge and consent to the transfer of their personal data to these international locations. Melbet ensures that all partner organisations handling such data are bound by confidentiality obligations and maintain adequate data protection standards.

The following points provide further detail on international data transfers:

  1. Personal data may be processed in countries where Melbet’s technology infrastructure, payment processors, or operational partners are located.
