Privacy matters before you create an account, submit identity documents, make a payment, or place a bet. This Gursha Bet Privacy Policy explains what personal information Gursha Bet may collect, why it is processed, and the controls used to handle it responsibly. It applies to the website, mobile version, app services, account features, betting products, live betting, games, Keno, bonuses, payments, customer support, and communications with users.
“Personal data” means information that can identify you directly or indirectly, such as your name, phone number, account details, device information, or transaction record. We collect information needed to operate services securely, meet applicable requirements, protect accounts, and support users. For questions about Gursha Bet privacy or a request concerning your information, please use Contact Us.
Who We Are
Gursha Bet provides online betting and gaming services for eligible adult users in Ethiopia, subject to applicable Ethiopian laws and regulations, operator rules, eligibility requirements, and regional restrictions. Information about the platform and operator identification is available on our About Us page. Users may also review License & Regulation and verify the current licensing and regulatory status through the competent authority’s latest information where appropriate.
This privacy policy in Ethiopia is intended to give visitors, registered players, and account holders a clear view of how betting account data is handled. Availability of services may depend on local requirements and the operator’s terms.
Information We Collect
Gursha Bet seeks to collect only information reasonably needed for lawful, security, operational, consumer protection, and regulatory purposes. Depending on how you use the platform, Gursha Bet personal data may include:
- Account data: name, phone number, email address, date of birth, username, and password-related security information.
- Identity and verification data: identity documents, age-check information, KYC requirements, customer due diligence records, and fraud-prevention information. KYC means “Know Your Customer” and is an identity verification process.
- Transaction data: deposit and withdrawal requests, payment authorization details, payment method information, balance history, bonus activity, and records of transactions.
- Betting and gaming data: bet selections, odds, results, settlement records, live betting activity, Keno activity, game sessions, and promotion participation.
- Technical data: IP address, device type, browser, app version, operating system, cookies, log files, and security events.
- Communication data: support messages, emails, complaints, call records where applicable, and chat logs.
- Responsible gaming data: deposit limits, self-exclusion requests, account restrictions, and relevant risk indicators.
For example, an identity check may be requested before a withdrawal is completed, particularly where account-holder information, payment authorization, or transaction activity needs confirmation. This helps protect users against unauthorized access and supports fraud prevention.
How We Use Personal Data
Gursha Bet data protection procedures are designed around the practical operation of a betting account. Information may be used to create and manage accounts, confirm age eligibility, enable secure login, recover access, and respond to account-security concerns.
We may process payment and transaction records to accept deposits, review withdrawals, maintain balance records, settle winnings, apply bonuses, and investigate payment abuse. Betting information can be used to settle sport betting, live betting, Keno, and game activity accurately, as well as to identify suspicious betting patterns, duplicate accounts, bonus abuse, or other activity that may affect the integrity of the service.
Technical and usage information helps improve site performance, mobile access, app stability, customer support, and security monitoring. We may send essential messages about account access, verification, payments, material policy changes, or service interruptions. Marketing communications are sent only where allowed and should include available opt-out options.
Processing may also be necessary for tax, accounting, anti-money-laundering, licensing, dispute-resolution, and other compliance requirements. Responsible betting measures may require us to apply limits, review risk indicators, or action a self-exclusion request.
Legal Basis / Lawful Reasons
Gursha Bet processes personal data where it is needed to provide requested services, comply with legal obligations, maintain account security, prevent fraud, resolve disputes, or protect users and the platform. In some cases, processing may be based on your consent where consent is required, such as certain marketing or non-essential cookie choices.
The applicable lawful reason can depend on the information involved and the purpose of processing. Where exact legal bases are required under the relevant regulatory framework, they should be confirmed by the operator’s compliance process. Nothing in this policy limits any rights available under applicable data protection and privacy rules.
Cookies and Tracking
Cookies are small files placed on a browser or device. Gursha Bet may use cookies and similar technologies to keep a user signed in, remember preferences, detect suspicious access, analyse traffic, improve page performance, and measure permitted marketing activity. They can be particularly useful when an account holder moves between mobile and desktop access.
You can usually manage cookies through browser or device settings, although disabling certain cookies may affect login or account functions. For further details, read the Cookie Policy.
Data Sharing
Gursha Bet does not sell personal data as a product. Information may, however, be shared with contracted third parties where this is necessary to provide, secure, or administer the service. These may include payment processors, identity verification providers, hosting and cloud infrastructure providers, analytics and security tools, customer support systems, professional advisers, and authorized service channels.
Data may also be disclosed to regulators, competent authorities, law enforcement bodies, courts, or other parties where required by law, necessary to respond to a valid request, or needed to protect legal rights and platform integrity. Third-party access should be limited to the relevant purpose and subject to suitable confidentiality, security, or contractual controls where applicable.
International Transfers
Some specialist providers may process information outside Ethiopia. Where an international transfer is necessary, Gursha Bet should handle it in accordance with applicable legal requirements and use suitable safeguards appropriate to the transfer. Users should not assume that every provider operates from the same location as the platform.
Data Storage and Retention
Personal data is retained only for as long as reasonably necessary for account operation, payment records, legal and financial obligations, fraud prevention, dispute handling, responsible gaming records, and regulatory requirements. Retention periods can differ by record type.
Closing an account does not always mean that all information can be deleted immediately. Certain records may need to be kept for legal, security, accounting, or compliance reasons. Once retention is no longer justified, information should be deleted, anonymised, or otherwise handled in accordance with applicable requirements.
Security Measures
Gursha Bet uses reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal data. These may include encryption where appropriate, access controls, secure login systems, monitoring, staff confidentiality obligations, backup arrangements, fraud detection, and internal procedures for handling security incidents.
Account security also depends on the user. Use a unique password, do not share verification codes, and check that you are using an official domain before entering account-holder information. If you notice unfamiliar activity, change your password through the Gursha Bet login page and contact support promptly. No online system can promise absolute security, but timely reporting can reduce the risk of misuse.
User Rights
Subject to applicable data protection laws, you may have the right to request access to your personal data, ask for inaccurate information to be corrected, request deletion or restriction of processing, object to certain processing, or ask for information about how your data is handled. You may also withdraw consent where processing is based on consent, without affecting earlier processing carried out lawfully.
Step 1: submit a clear privacy enquiry through Contact Us and identify the account or communication concerned. Step 2: provide enough information for us to verify that the request comes from the correct account holder. Step 3: explain whether you seek access, correction, deletion, restriction, or another data-rights request.
Some requests may be limited where records must be retained for legal, financial, security, fraud-prevention, or regulatory reasons. If a request cannot be fully fulfilled, the response should explain the relevant limitation where appropriate.
Age Restrictions and Children’s Data
Gursha Bet services are intended only for eligible adult users. We do not knowingly seek to collect personal data from underage users. Age verification and customer due diligence may be used to support this age restriction and protect the integrity of the platform.
If a parent, guardian, or user believes that underage information has been submitted, they should contact support without delay. Please review the Age Restriction Policy for related eligibility rules.
Responsible Gaming and Account Restrictions
Responsible gaming information may be processed to apply deposit limits, account restrictions, cooling-off measures, self-exclusion, and other responsible betting measures. Relevant account activity or risk indicators may be reviewed when needed to support user protection and compliance requirements.
These controls are not a substitute for personal decision-making, but they can help users manage access to betting services. More information is available through Responsible Gaming.
Terms, Bonuses, and Payments
This policy works alongside the Terms and Conditions, payment checks, anti-fraud controls, bonus rules, and product-specific conditions. Before accepting a promotion or requesting a withdrawal, users should review the applicable terms, including any disclosure of fees, limits, verification requirements, processing time, and withdrawal procedure.
Data connected with a bonus, payment, or betting product may be reviewed to confirm eligibility and prevent misuse. This can include activity associated with a Gursha Bet bonus code, transactions linked to Gursha Bet sport betting, or sessions on other available products. Such review is intended to support transparent terms and fair account administration.
Updates to This Policy
Gursha Bet may update this Privacy Policy when services, security practices, laws, data-processing activities, or compliance requirements change. The current version published on this page applies from the time it is made available. We encourage users to review it periodically, especially before providing new account information or using new payment, betting, or app features.
