Frequently Asked Questions

Privacy Protection — Questions & Answers

yg9 collects the name and phone number you provide when registering, payment data, gaming history, and information automatically collected when you visit the site — including your IP address and browser details. Only data that is essential to providing our services is collected.

yg9 will never sell or rent player data to anyone. Only the minimum data necessary to process deposits and withdrawals is shared with payment service providers such as KBZPay, Wave Money, AYA Pay, and CB Pay. Your data is protected except in cases where disclosure is required by law.

You have the right to request deletion. You can contact [email protected] to request that non-essential data be deleted, provided there are no legal restrictions (such as a financial records retention period). Where your request does not conflict with any legally required retention period, we will process it promptly.

SSL (TLS) encryption converts data transferred between your browser and yg9 servers into a form that cannot be read by third parties. This means data sent when you make a deposit, log in to your account, or submit a request cannot be intercepted in transit.

Tracking and preference cookies can be turned off. However, if essential cookies such as those used for session management are disabled, core functions — including logging in to the platform and processing deposits and withdrawals — will no longer work.
