Privacy Policy

Welcome to Draft King Sportsbook. At Draft King Sportsbook ("we," "our," or "us"), we place the highest priority on your privacy and the security of your personal information. As a premier provider of legal, regulated online sports betting and iGaming services, we are deeply committed to maintaining your trust. This comprehensive Privacy Policy meticulously outlines the types of information we collect from you, the highly specific ways in which we utilize that information, the circumstances under which we may share it with third parties, and the extensive rights you possess regarding your personal data.

This Privacy Policy is applicable to all users of our websites, mobile applications, proprietary software, and any related digital services (collectively referred to as the "Services"). By downloading our mobile application, creating a verified user account, or otherwise accessing and utilizing our Services, you are explicitly consenting to the data collection, utilization, and disclosure practices articulated within this document. If you do not agree with any of the terms outlined in this Privacy Policy, please discontinue your use of the Services immediately.

1. Comprehensive Information We Collect

To provide you with a secure, legally compliant, and highly personalized wagering experience, we are required by federal and state laws to collect a variety of information. The data we collect is broadly categorized into the following segments:

A. Personal Identification Information (PII)

Due to the strictly regulated nature of real-money gambling, we must rigorously verify the identity and age of every single patron. When you register for a Draft King Sportsbook account, we actively collect:

• Your full legal name, date of birth, and gender.
• Your primary residential address, detailed contact telephone numbers, and email address.
• Your Social Security Number (SSN) or other national identity numbers. This is a mandatory legal requirement for Know Your Customer (KYC) compliance, Anti-Money Laundering (AML) directives, and the issuance of W-2G tax forms for significant gambling winnings.
• Government-issued photographic identification, such as a driver's license or passport, often requested during enhanced verification procedures or significant withdrawal requests.

B. Financial and Transactional Information

To facilitate your deposits, process your wagers, and ensure rapid, secure withdrawals, we collect comprehensive financial data. This includes your credit or debit card numbers, bank routing and account numbers, e-wallet identifiers (such as PayPal or Venmo handles), and a complete, highly detailed historical record of all deposits, withdrawals, wagers placed, casino games played, and promotional bonuses claimed.

C. Precise Geolocation Data

Compliance with federal laws, such as the Wire Act, and state-specific gaming regulations mandates that you must be physically located within the borders of a legalized, regulated state to place a real-money wager. Consequently, when using our mobile app or website, we continuously collect and verify your precise physical location using GPS, Wi-Fi triangulation, and cellular tower data. Without this mandatory geolocation data, you will be entirely prohibited from placing bets.

D. Device and Technical Information

Whenever you interact with our Services, our servers automatically record technical information. This includes your IP address, browser type and version, device manufacturer, unique device identifiers (IMEI, MAC address), operating system specifics, crash logs, and network connection type. This data is critical for fraud prevention, ensuring software compatibility, and optimizing the application's performance during high-traffic sporting events.

2. How We Utilize Your Information

We do not collect data arbitrarily. Every piece of information we gather serves a specific, vital function in operating Draft King Sportsbook. We utilize your data for the following primary purposes:

• Service Delivery and Account Management: To create, maintain, and secure your account; to process your bets, spins, deposits, and payouts accurately; and to provide responsive customer support and VIP concierge services.
• Regulatory Compliance and Legal Obligations: To verify your identity and age; to monitor for and prevent money laundering, terrorist financing, and other illicit financial activities; to ensure you are not on any voluntary or state-mandated self-exclusion lists; and to accurately report your taxable winnings to the IRS and state tax authorities.
• Fraud Prevention and Risk Management: To continuously monitor betting patterns for signs of match-fixing, syndicate betting, or algorithmic manipulation; and to detect and block unauthorized account access or the use of stolen financial instruments.
• Marketing and Personalization: To deliver highly tailored promotional offers, odds boosts, and Casino free spins based on your specific betting history and favorite sports teams; and to measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns. You retain the right to opt-out of marketing communications at any time.

3. Information Sharing and Disclosure

Draft King Sportsbook does not and will never sell your personal identification information to third-party data brokers. However, to operate effectively and legally, we must share specific data with trusted third parties under strict confidentiality agreements:

• Service Providers: We share necessary data with authorized third-party vendors who assist us with identity verification (e.g., LexisNexis), secure payment processing, geolocation validation (e.g., GeoComply), cloud hosting, email delivery, and advanced data analytics.
• Regulatory and Law Enforcement Agencies: The online betting industry is heavily scrutinized. We routinely share data, betting histories, and KYC information with state gaming commissions, sports integrity monitoring organizations (e.g., U.S. Integrity), and law enforcement agencies to investigate suspicious activities, ensure sporting fairness, and comply with subpoenas or court orders.
• Corporate Affiliates and Business Transfers: We may share information within our corporate family of companies. In the event of a merger, acquisition, restructuring, or sale of substantially all of our assets, your data will likely be transferred as a vital business asset, subject to the continuation of this Privacy Policy.

4. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We employ cookies, web beacons, embedded scripts, and similar tracking technologies to enhance your user experience. These tools allow us to remember your login status, save your preferred odds display format (American, Decimal, or Fractional), analyze site traffic, and deliver targeted advertising across the internet. You possess the ability to manage or disable cookies through your web browser settings; however, significantly restricting cookies may impair the functionality of the Draft King Sportsbook platform and prevent you from accessing certain features.

5. Uncompromising Data Security

Protecting your financial and personal data is the cornerstone of our platform. Draft King Sportsbook implements robust, enterprise-grade security protocols. This includes mandatory 128-bit SSL/TLS encryption for all data in transit, the utilization of sophisticated firewall architectures, and the storage of sensitive data in highly secure, physically guarded Tier-4 data centers. While we utilize industry-leading technology to defend against cyber threats, it is important to acknowledge that no transmission of data over the internet can be guaranteed as 100% secure. You are equally responsible for maintaining the absolute confidentiality of your account credentials and enabling Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA).

6. Your Privacy Rights and State-Specific Laws

Depending on your state of residence, you may possess specific, legally enforceable rights regarding your personal information. We respect and facilitate these rights universally, regardless of where you reside in the United States.

• Right to Access: You may request a comprehensive copy of the personal data we hold about you, including the specific pieces of information and the categories of sources from which it was collected.
• Right to Deletion: You may request the deletion of your personal data. *Please note:* Due to stringent gaming regulations, Anti-Money Laundering laws, and tax reporting requirements, Draft King Sportsbook is legally mandated to retain significant portions of your data (such as betting history and tax IDs) for a minimum of 5 to 7 years, even after an account closure request. We cannot override state and federal laws regarding data retention.
• Right to Opt-Out: You may opt-out of receiving promotional marketing emails and SMS messages by utilizing the unsubscribe mechanisms provided in the communications, or by adjusting your preferences within your account settings dashboard.

For Residents of California (CCPA/CPRA), Virginia (VCDPA), Colorado (CPA), Connecticut (CTDPA), and Utah (UCPA): You have additional rights, including the right to opt-out of targeted advertising and the right to non-discrimination for exercising your privacy rights. To submit a verifiable consumer request under these state laws, please utilize the dedicated portal within your account settings or contact our privacy team directly.

7. Children's Privacy

Draft King Sportsbook is strictly and unequivocally prohibited for individuals under the legal gambling age in their respective jurisdictions (which is 21+ in almost all legalized U.S. states). We do not intentionally or knowingly collect, solicit, or maintain personal information from anyone under the age of 21. If we discover through our rigorous verification processes that an underage individual has attempted to create an account, that account will be immediately terminated, all funds will be confiscated subject to regulatory approval, and the individual's information will be permanently blacklisted.

8. Modifications to this Privacy Policy

The online betting landscape and data privacy regulations are constantly evolving. Consequently, we reserve the right to modify, amend, or update this Privacy Policy at our sole discretion at any time. When material changes are made, we will notify you by prominently posting the updated policy on our website, updating the "Effective Date" at the top of this document, and, where appropriate, sending an email notification or requiring you to acknowledge the new terms upon your next login. Your continued use of the Services following the posting of changes constitutes your binding acceptance of those changes.
