2. Purpose of Data Processing
Your data is processed under the legal basis of contract necessity and legal obligation. Specifically, we use it to:
- Validate your identity and prevent underage gambling.
- Facilitate secure financial transactions and prevent money laundering (AML).
- Customize the user interface based on your regional preferences.
