HOW WE PROTECT YOUR ACCOUNT

Data Handling, Cookies and Account Security at 5v5

We apply technical and organisational measures to keep your account data secure, including encrypted storage for credentials, access controls that limit who within our team can view personal records, and routine security…

Data We Collect

We collect your name, contact details, date of birth for age verification, payment method identifiers for UPI, Paytm, and PhonePe, plus device and session data to detect unusual activity on your account.

Cookie Practices

We use session cookies to keep you logged in and analytics cookies to understand how the lobby is used. You can withdraw cookie consent at any time via the cookie preference panel in your browser or account settings.

Account Security

Passwords are stored as salted hashes — never in plain text. We also support two-factor verification at login and flag any sign-in attempt from an unrecognised device so you can act quickly.

Data Retention

Active account data is retained while your account remains open. Once an account is closed, personal data is deleted or anonymised within 90 days, except where a longer period is required by applicable Indian financial regulations.

Third-Party Sharing

We share data only with payment processors (UPI, Paytm, PhonePe networks), identity verification partners, and fraud-prevention services — all bound by data-processing agreements. No data is sold or shared for advertising.

Requesting Changes

You can request a copy of your data, ask us to correct inaccuracies, or submit a deletion request at any time by emailing our privacy team with your registered account email as verification.
