hongkongpool Privacy Policy
This page describes what we collect when you use hongkongpool and how we keep that data protected. We collect your personal information to verify your identity, process deposits and withdrawals via DANA, e-wallet, mobile banking, local payment, and bank transfers (online payment, e-wallet, mobile banking, local payment), settle your bets, and provide customer support. We are committed to transparency about data handling and respect your privacy rights.
Our privacy policy covers data collection, use, storage, third-party processors, your rights, cookies, and how to contact us if you have questions. We comply with applicable data protection laws in each jurisdiction where we operate. By creating a hongkongpool account, you consent to the practices described here.
What Data We Collect When You Use hongkongpool
We collect several categories of data from hongkongpool users. First, identity information: your full name, date of birth, national ID number (KTP, passport, or equivalent), and proof of address (utility bill, bank statement, or government letter). We require this to comply with Know Your Customer (KYC) and anti-money-laundering (AML) regulations. Without complete KYC, your hongkongpool account remains restricted.
Second, contact information: your email address and phone number. We use these to send account notifications, password-reset links, withdrawal confirmations, and support responses. You may opt out of promotional emails but cannot opt out of transactional emails (account alerts, bet settlements, deposit confirmations).
Third, payment information: your deposit and withdrawal history, payment method details (e-wallet account linked to hongkongpool, bank account number for DANA, e-wallet, mobile banking, local payment, online payment, e-wallet, mobile banking, local payment transfers), and transaction amounts. We store these securely to process payments, prevent fraud, and reconcile your account. We do not store full credit-card numbers or passwords in plaintext.
Fourth, activity data: your login history, bets placed, games played, Liga 1 or Piala AFF matches wagered on, live-dealer table activity, slot game rounds, esports bets, account balance changes, and support interactions. We track this to detect fraud, settle disputes, and improve hongkongpool services.
Fifth, device and access data: your IP address, browser type, operating system, device ID, and approximate location (based on IP geolocation). We use this to identify suspicious login attempts, prevent account takeover, and comply with regional access restrictions.
How we use your data on hongkongpool
We use collected data for the following purposes:
- Account creation and verification: We verify your identity against government databases and validate your proof of address to open your hongkongpool account and unlock higher account tiers (Silver, Gold).
- Payment processing: We transmit your payment details to online payment, e-wallet, mobile banking, local payment, and bank processors (online payment, e-wallet, mobile banking, local payment) to complete deposits and withdrawals. We retain records for reconciliation and dispute resolution.
- Bet settlement: We use your activity history to settle bets on Liga 1, Piala AFF, Champions League, and other markets, as well as live-dealer and slot game outcomes.

Data Storage, Third-Party Processors, and Your Rights on hongkongpool
We store your data on encrypted servers located in data centers outside Indonesia. Our servers may sit outside your jurisdiction; by using hongkongpool, you consent to this cross-border storage. We implement SSL encryption for data in transit and encryption at rest for stored data. Our data centers meet industry-standard security certifications (ISO 27001 or equivalent).
We retain your data for as long as your hongkongpool account is active, plus seven years after account closure to comply with AML and tax regulations. After that period, we delete personal data unless we are legally required to retain it.
Third-party processors we engage
We share data with carefully selected third parties to operate hongkongpool:
- Payment processors: DANA, e-wallet, mobile banking, local payment, online payment, e-wallet, and bank partners (mobile banking, local payment, online payment, e-wallet) receive your payment details to process deposits and withdrawals. These processors have their own privacy policies; we recommend reviewing them.
- Identity verification vendors: We use third-party services to verify your national ID and proof of address against government databases.
- Hosting providers: Our servers are hosted by established cloud providers who implement security controls on our behalf.
- Customer support tools: We may use third-party chat, email, or ticketing systems to manage support requests. These vendors access support conversations you initiate.
- Analytics providers: We use aggregated, anonymized data to understand hongkongpool usage trends. These providers do not have access to personally identifiable information.
We do not sell your personal data to marketers, advertisers, or data brokers. We do not share your data with unaffiliated third parties without your explicit consent, except as required by law (e.g., law enforcement requests with valid court orders).

Cookies and tracking on hongkongpool
We use cookies to remember your login state, save your preferences, and track your activity on hongkongpool to prevent fraud. Session cookies expire when you log out; persistent cookies may remain for up to one year. We use first-party cookies only — we do not allow third-party tracking pixels on hongkongpool.
You can disable cookies in your browser settings, but doing so will impair hongkongpool functionality (you will be logged out frequently, payment processing may fail). We do not honor Do-Not-Track signals because we use cookies for security, not advertising.
