HOW WE PROTECT YOU

Data Handling, Cookies and Account Security at punematka

Every measure described below reflects how our operations team actively manages your data — not aspirational policy language, but the actual controls in place for every India account holder on the platform…

Data Collection Approach

We collect only what is necessary to operate your account — name, contact details, payment method references such as your UPI handle or Paytm ID, and device session data. No additional profiling data is gathered without your explicit consent.

Cookie Controls

punematka uses session cookies to keep you logged in and preference cookies to remember your lobby settings. You can review and adjust cookie permissions at any time through the settings panel on your account dashboard.

Account Security Practices

All account credentials are hashed using industry-standard algorithms before storage. Two-factor verification is available for your account login and is strongly encouraged for any account that processes withdrawals via PhonePe or Paytm.

Data Retention Schedule

We retain account data for as long as your account remains active and for a legally required period after closure. Transaction records linked to UPI or Paytm payments are kept for the minimum period mandated by applicable Indian financial regulations.

Your Right to Access and Erasure

You can request a full export of the personal data we hold under your account at any time. You can also request deletion of your data where no legal retention obligation applies — submit the request through live chat or email and we will action it within seven working days.

Third-Party Data Sharing

We share data with payment processors — including UPI network partners and Paytm — only to complete your requested transactions. We do not sell, rent or otherwise transfer your personal information to marketing or advertising third parties.
