sova Casino & Sportsbook Data Care
This page describes what we collect when you use sova and how we keep that data protected. We collect personal information to verify your identity, process your deposits and withdrawals through DANA, e-wallet, mobile banking, local payment, online payment, e-wallet, mobile banking, local payment, online payment, and e-wallet, and operate our platform fairly. We store your data securely and do not share it for marketing purposes.
Our approach to data protection centers on transparency and security. When you open a sova account, you provide your email, full name, date of birth, and national ID number. We use this information only for account verification, fraud prevention, regulatory compliance, and service delivery. We separate your identity documents from your gaming history. Your payment information is encrypted and processed by secure third-party payment providers.
We comply with applicable data-protection law in the jurisdictions where sova operates. This policy explains our practices. If you have questions about how we handle your data, contact our support team.
What data we collect when you join sova
We collect personal data during your sova account registration and verification. This includes your email address, full name, date of birth, national ID number, residential address, and telephone number. We also collect your payment information when you deposit via DANA, e-wallet, mobile banking, local payment, online payment, e-wallet, or a bank virtual account. Our payment processors handle this information according to their own security standards.
When you use sova, we also collect usage data: which games you access, how long you play, your bet amounts, and settlement results. We collect this data to personalize your experience, detect fraud, and comply with gaming regulations. We log your account login times, deposit and withdrawal requests, and support interactions. We record your IP address and browser information so we can investigate security issues and recover your account if needed.

- Email address and telephone number for account recovery and customer support on sova.
- Payment data
- E-wallet or bank account details—processed by secure third-party payment handlers, not stored directly by sova.

How we use your data on sova
We use your sova data for specific, defined purposes. First, we verify your identity and age eligibility during account opening and Know Your Customer (KYC) verification. Second, we process your deposits and withdrawals securely. Third, we detect fraud and money-laundering activity. Fourth, we settle your bets and manage your account balance. Fifth, we respond to your support requests in English or Indonesian.
We also use your data to comply with legal obligations. Gaming regulators, tax authorities, and law-enforcement agencies may request your information as part of investigations or regulatory reviews. We provide data to these authorities only when required by law or legal process. We do not use your sova gaming data for marketing purposes or sell it to third parties for profit.
Storage, encryption, and third-party processors
We store your sova account data on secure servers. Your identity documents and payment information are encrypted using industry-standard encryption. We maintain separate databases: one for your identity and verification status, another for your gaming activity and account balance. Access to your data is restricted to authorized sova team members who need it to serve you.
Our servers may be located outside your jurisdiction. When we store your data internationally, we apply the same encryption and access controls we use locally. Our payment processors—the entities handling your mobile banking, local payment, online payment, e-wallet, mobile banking, local payment, and bank transfers—operate under their own data-protection standards. These third parties process payment data only to complete your transactions; they do not share your payment details with sova beyond what is necessary for settlement confirmation.
We at sova treat your data security as foundational. Encryption, restricted access, and third-party oversight protect your information at every stage.
Retention of your sova data
We retain your sova account data for the duration of your account and for a period thereafter to comply with legal obligations. Gaming regulators and tax authorities require us to keep records of account activity for several years after account closure. We also retain settlement records to resolve disputes if you query a bet outcome or withdrawal.
Your identity documents are retained for your account lifecycle plus a retention period set by applicable law. Once this period expires, we securely delete your documents. Your gaming history is retained to reconstruct your account if you request recovery and to respond to regulatory inquiries. You may request deletion of specific data by contacting our support team, but we will retain data where required by law.
Your rights regarding sova data
You have rights over your sova account data where applicable data-protection law permits. You may request access to all personal data we hold about you. We provide a summary of your data in a readable format, typically within standard legal timeframes. You may request correction of inaccurate information—for example, if your address is outdated on sova, we update it.
You may request deletion of your data in certain circumstances, though we will retain records where required by law or to resolve disputes. You may object to certain uses of your data, such as profiling for fraud detection, though this may prevent us from offering sova services. To exercise these rights, contact our support team with your sova account ID and a description of your request. We respond within standard legal timeframes.
Cookies and tracking on sova
Our sova website uses cookies to remember your login status, maintain your session, and track page views for analytics. We use cookies to identify patterns of fraud or unusual account activity. We do not use cookies for third-party marketing tracking. If you disable cookies in your browser, you may not be able to log into sova or maintain your session.
We also use local storage and similar technologies to store your preferences—for example, your preferred language or display settings on sova. These storage methods work like cookies but are stored on your device rather than sent to our servers. You can clear these at any time through your browser settings without affecting your sova account.
Data breaches and incident response
We maintain security practices to protect your sova data from breach or unauthorized access. If a breach occurs and your personal information is compromised, we notify you and relevant authorities as required by law. We investigate the breach, determine its scope, and take corrective action. We document all incidents and provide transparency about what happened, what data was affected, and what steps we took in response.
Contact and data-subject requests
If you have questions about our sova data practices, wish to access your data, or want to exercise your rights, contact our support team. We respond during business hours in English and Indonesian. You can reach us via live chat on our website, email to our support address, or messaging channels in your sova account. We aim to respond to data-subject requests within the timeframe set by applicable law.
International data transfers
sova may transfer your data internationally to process payments, comply with regulations, and operate our platform. We apply equivalent data-protection standards to all transfers. We use standard contractual clauses and other mechanisms recognized by data-protection law to safeguard data in transit and at rest.
Changes to our sova privacy policy
We may update this privacy policy from time to time. We notify you of material changes by email or by posting notice on our website. Your continued use of sova after we publish changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy. If you do not agree with changes, you may close your account and request withdrawal of your balance.

Jurisdiction and access notice
Service availability
Our sova platform is offered only in jurisdictions where local law permits online gaming, sportsbook betting, and live-dealer table games. We do not operate in regions where such services are prohibited by law. The availability of sova is determined by applicable local and national regulations, which vary by territory. We monitor legal changes and adjust our service availability to ensure compliance with current law.
We do not represent or warrant that sova is legal in any specific jurisdiction. Users are solely responsible for determining whether access to and use of our platform is lawful in their location. We make no claims about the legality of sova in any particular country or region. If you access sova from a jurisdiction where such activity is prohibited, you do so at your own risk and in violation of local law. We do not assist users in circumventing local restrictions, and we reserve the right to refuse service to users in prohibited jurisdictions.
Our sova terms and data protection practices apply only where the service is legally available. If you are unsure whether sova is available in your jurisdiction, contact your local gaming authority or legal advisor before accessing our platform. We provide this notice to ensure you understand the legal limitations of our service and our role in enforcing them.
Account eligibility
To open a sova account, you must meet the legal age and eligibility requirements of your jurisdiction. Eligibility is determined by the laws of the territory where you reside and where you access our platform. We verify age and eligibility during our Know Your Customer (KYC) process by requesting and reviewing identity documents. You must provide accurate, truthful information to complete verification. Providing false information is grounds for account closure and forfeiture of funds.
We do not knowingly permit minors or persons ineligible under applicable law to open sova accounts or place bets and participate in games. If we discover that an account holder does not meet eligibility requirements, we close the account immediately and hold funds pending proper disposition under applicable law. You represent and warrant that you are of legal age and eligibility to use sova in your jurisdiction. This is a material condition of our terms.
Certain professions and roles may be restricted from using sova—for example, employees of gaming regulators or persons subject to sanctions. If you are unsure whether you meet eligibility criteria, do not open an account. Contact our support team for clarification before attempting registration on sova.
Local-law responsibility
You are solely responsible for ensuring that your access to and use of sova complies with the laws of your jurisdiction. We do not provide legal advice, and we do not represent that sova is legal or permitted in your location. You must investigate your local laws before accessing our platform. If you access sova in violation of your jurisdiction's laws, you do so voluntarily and at your own risk.

We provide transaction records and account history upon request to assist with tax reporting, but we do not offer tax advice. Consult a tax professional in your jurisdiction for guidance on your specific obligations related to sova activity.
If your jurisdiction's laws change and online gaming becomes prohibited, we may suspend or close your account. We will provide notice and return your account balance in accordance with legal requirements. We take no responsibility for losses arising from legal changes in your jurisdiction that affect the availability of sova.
