Privacy policy

Last updated: 24 April 2026

This policy explains how Mastiarena (“we”, “us”) handles information when you use mastiarena.games and related services. The site is a social entertainment product: no real-money gambling and no real-money prizes. The interface is in English; we describe practices in a way that is useful to adults using the service from India and other regions.

1. Data controller and contact

For data-protection questions, contact: privacy@mastiarena.games (replace with a live address before production). We may use processors (e.g. hosting, analytics) under written terms.

2. What we collect

• Technical — IP address, device/browser type, language, approx. region, timestamps, and security logs.
• Usage — pages viewed, button clicks, session length, and similar metrics to run and improve the product.
• Account & preferences — if you create an account or save settings: display name, email (if you provide it), age confirmation status, and cookie choices.
• Support — text you send to us when you ask for help.

We do not use this site to take deposits, bank cards, or UPI in exchange for withdrawing “winnings”, because the platform is not a real-money casino.

3. Why we use data

To operate, secure, and improve Mastiarena; to remember your cookie and age-gate choices; to comply with law; to communicate service messages; and to generate aggregate statistics. We do not sell your personal data for money. Where we use analytics or ad-tech cookies, we describe this in the Cookie policy and, where required, request consent.

4. Legal bases (where the GDPR is relevant)

Where EU/UK data-protection law applies, we rely on: contract (providing the service you asked for), legitimate interests (security, fraud prevention, product improvement, measured analytics), and consent (non-essential cookies and certain emails). You may withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of prior processing.

5. India

India’s Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (when fully applicable) and rules issued under it may grant you rights to access, correction, erasure, grievance redress, and other remedies. We respond to verifiable requests within reasonable time. Our processing is limited to what is needed for a lawful purpose (running a compliant social-entertainment site). If you are in India, you may also use privacy@mastiarena.games for DPO-style queries, pending formal appointment of a DPD/DPO as required by local law.

6. International transfers

Servers or support partners may be located outside your country. Where we move data, we use lawful mechanisms (e.g. standard contracts or equivalent safeguards) and minimize what crosses borders.

7. Retention

We keep data only as long as needed: security logs for a limited rolling window; account data until you delete the account; marketing consents until withdrawn; and legal/audit records for periods required by law.

8. Your choices

• Browser settings and our Cookie policy for many cookies.
• Email: unsubscribe or contact us to correct details.
• Access or deletion: write to the contact in section 1; we may verify your identity first.

9. Security

We use industry-standard technical and organizational measures. No system is 100% secure: please use strong, unique passwords if we enable accounts, and let us know of suspected issues immediately.

10. Children

Mastiarena is 18+ only. We do not knowingly collect data from children. If you believe we have, contact us and we will delete it.

11. Changes

We may update this policy. The “last updated” date at the top will change; material changes may be announced on the site. Continued use after posting means you accept the revised text where permitted by law.
