06How We Protect Your Data
pub201 implements a range of technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data:
- SSL/TLS encryption: All data transmitted between your device and pub201 is encrypted using SSL/TLS protocols, whether you're using the website or the mobile app.
- OTP verification: Sensitive account actions — including logging in from a new device and requesting withdrawals — require OTP (one-time password) confirmation to your registered mobile number.
- Access controls: Internal access to personal data is restricted to pub201 staff who need it to perform specific job functions. All access is logged and reviewed.
- Secure storage: Personal data is stored in secured environments with controls against unauthorised access, modification, or deletion.
- Fraud monitoring: Automated systems monitor account activity for patterns that may indicate a security breach or unauthorised access.
Despite these measures, no online platform can guarantee absolute security. If you suspect that your account has been accessed without your authorisation, contact us immediately at [email protected].
07Cookies and Technical Tracking
pub201 uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to operate and improve the platform. Cookies are small text files stored on your device that help us recognise you between sessions, maintain your login state, and understand how the platform is being used.
The types of cookies pub201 uses include:
- Essential cookies: Required for the platform to function — including keeping you logged in and maintaining your session. These cannot be disabled without affecting platform functionality.
- Analytics cookies: Help us understand how players navigate pub201 so we can identify pages that aren't working well and improve the experience. Data from analytics cookies is aggregated and does not identify individual players.
- Security cookies: Used to detect unusual activity and protect against automated attacks and fraud.
Most browsers allow you to manage cookie settings. Disabling essential cookies may prevent parts of the platform from working correctly. For more information on managing cookies, refer to your browser's help documentation.
