8HI Game Privacy Policy - Data Protection & Security

By installing our application package, creating a member account, or interacting with our web documentation, you acknowledge the terms outlined in this document. We are committed to complying with applicable data protection regulations, including the Indian Information Technology Act, 2000 and the Information Technology (Reasonable Security Practices and Procedures and Sensitive Personal Data or Information) Rules, 2011.

Privacy Summary: Our Core Commitments

We never sell, rent, or lease your personal information to third-party commercial marketing entities. Personal data is utilized exclusively to maintain secure profile authentication, process automated wallet settlements, guarantee game engine fairness, and protect community integrity through encrypted communications.

1. Scope and Applicability of This Policy

This privacy governance framework governs all services, software applications, APIs, and web portals operated under the brand umbrella. It applies to:

  • Website Documentation: All informational pages, guides, and updates hosted on 8higameplay.com.
  • The Mobile Application: The Android application package distributed via secure cloud networks as documented in our APK Installation Guide.
  • Member Authentication Portals: Account registration and sign-in services accessed through our Account Registration Guide and Login Portal.
  • Agency & Affiliate Dashboards: Partner tracking consoles operated under the Affiliate Program.
  • Customer Helpdesk Communications: Real-time in-app chats and email support interactions handled by Customer Support Helpdesk.

2. Categories of Information We Collect

To deliver responsive multiplayer gameplay and fulfill regulatory transparency, we collect specific categories of user information:

A. Personally Identifiable Information (Provided by You)

When you initiate registration, we collect your 10-digit Indian mobile number, chosen username, and encrypted account password. During customer support interactions or account verification, you may voluntarily provide an email address or formal identity documentation where required by financial compliance protocols.

B. Technical & Device Telemetry (Collected Automatically)

When your handset communicates with central game servers, automated diagnostic telemetry is logged, including your device manufacturer and model, operating system version (e.g., Android 12 or 13), unique hardware identifier, Internet Protocol (IP) address, mobile network operator, and network connection latency metrics.

C. Gameplay and Room Activity Records

To ensure fair matchmaking and compute promotional turnover accurately, our servers record gameplay history across all featured titles, including Teen Patti, Aviator Pro, Andar Bahar, and Dragon Tiger. Data recorded includes table timestamps, session duration, and round outcome logs. Learn about game mechanics in our How to Play 8HI Game Guide.

D. Financial Transaction Metadata

When executing wallet top-ups or withdrawal settlements, we record the transaction reference number (UTR), Virtual Payment Address (UPI VPA), timestamp, and transfer amount. Important Security Note: We NEVER store, process, or request your sensitive banking passwords, UPI MPIN, or payment card CVV numbers. All financial processing is handled through secure external payment gateway partners.

5. Third-Party Data Sharing & Disclosures

We maintain a rigorous zero-sale policy regarding user data. Personal details are shared only with specialized service providers strictly necessary for operational delivery:

  • Game Engine Providers: Game outcome tokens are exchanged with integrated gaming engines solely to calculate game mathematical results.

6. Data Security and Cryptographic Standards

We implement comprehensive technical and organizational safeguards designed to prevent unauthorized data access, modification, or exposure:

  • End-to-End Encryption: All data transmissions between client smartphones and central host servers utilize 256-bit SSL/TLS cryptographic encryption.
  • Secure Data Storage: Sensitive database records, including telephone numbers and credential hashes, are stored using advanced AES-256 encryption at rest.
  • Restricted Access Controls: Internal administrative access is strictly partitioned on a need-to-know basis, governed by multi-factor authentication (MFA) and automated activity logging.
  • DDoS & Intrusion Mitigation: Automated firewalls protect our server endpoints against distributed denial-of-service attempts and malicious bot traffic.

7. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Our informational web portals use essential and analytical cookies to ensure optimal browsing performance:

  • Essential Session Cookies: Required to remember member authentication tokens and maintain navigation state across pages.
  • Performance Analytics: Aggregated, non-personal metrics used to evaluate page loading speeds and identify broken links.
  • User Control: You can manage or disable cookie preferences directly through your browser settings. Disabling essential cookies may impair certain portal functions.

8. Your Privacy Rights and Data Choices

Every registered participant maintains explicit control over their personal information:

  • Right to Access: You may request a summary of the personal details and transaction logs associated with your profile.
  • Right to Rectification: If your registered details contain errors, you can update credentials inside profile settings or via customer care.
  • Right to Erasure (Account Deletion): You may request profile termination and data anonymization by contacting our support team, subject to statutory retention obligations for financial records.
  • Marketing Opt-Out: You can opt out of promotional SMS alerts or app push notifications at any time in device settings.

9. Strict Minor Protection Policy (18+)

Our platform strictly prohibits registration by individuals under 18 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal information from minors. If our compliance algorithms detect that a profile belongs to an underage user, the account is immediately deactivated and associated data is permanently erased from active databases.

10. Policy Modifications and Data Protection Contact

We reserve the right to revise this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect technological advancements, operational updates, or statutory amendments. Significant revisions will be announced via in-app notifications and published on this page with an updated effective date.
