10.1 The w4444 Platform uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to operate correctly, improve performance, and personalise your experience. The following types of cookies are used:

• Strictly necessary cookies — essential for the Platform to function. These cannot be disabled without breaking core functionality such as login sessions and wallet access.
• Performance and analytics cookies — used to understand how players navigate the w4444 platform, which pages are visited most frequently, and where technical errors occur. This data is aggregated and anonymised.

• Security cookies — used to detect and prevent fraudulent activity, bot traffic, and account takeover attempts.

10.2 You may configure your browser to block or delete cookies. Please be aware that blocking strictly necessary cookies will impair your ability to use the w4444 Platform, including logging in and processing transactions.

10.3 w4444 does not use cookies to serve third-party advertisements or to track your activity across unrelated websites.

11.1 The w4444 Platform is strictly restricted to persons aged 21 years and above. w4444 does not knowingly collect personal data from any individual under the age of 21.

• Role-based access controls limiting internal staff access to personal data to those with a strict operational need.
• Regular security audits and penetration testing of Platform infrastructure.

In the event of a data breach affecting your personal data, w4444 will notify affected players and relevant authorities in accordance with applicable legal requirements and without undue delay.

12.3 You can help protect your own data by using a strong, unique password for your w4444 account, enabling two-factor authentication, and never sharing your login credentials with any other person.
