DATA HANDLING PRACTICES

How We Protect and Manage Your Information

Each of the six areas below describes a concrete practice 8jj follows to keep your personal data accurate, secure and within your control.

Encrypted Storage

All account data — including your registered phone number, email, and payment identifiers from UPI or PhonePe — is stored using AES-256 encryption at rest. Transmission between your device and our servers uses TLS 1.3, so data in transit is protected against interception.

Cookie Controls

We use session cookies to keep you logged in and analytics cookies to understand how pages perform. You can adjust cookie preferences from your account settings at any time. Declining analytics cookies does not affect your ability to access the lobby or process a Paytm withdrawal.

Data Retention Periods

Account registration data is held for the duration of your account and for seven years after closure, in line with Indian financial record-keeping requirements. Session logs are purged after 90 days. Payment reference IDs from UPI or PhonePe transactions are retained for the full seven-year period for audit purposes.

Access Requests

You can request a full export of the personal data we hold on your account at any time. Submit the request through live chat or email, verify your identity with your registered phone number, and we will deliver a structured data file within 30 days of the verified request.

Account Security Controls

Two-factor authentication is available for all accounts and we encourage you to enable it via your profile settings. Login attempts from unrecognised devices trigger an email alert to your registered address. Suspicious patterns — such as repeated failed logins — temporarily lock the account and notify you immediately.

Data Correction and Deletion

If any detail we hold is inaccurate — a misspelled name, wrong phone number, or outdated email — you can update it directly from account settings or ask our privacy team to correct it. Deletion requests are processed within 30 days, subject to any statutory retention obligations that apply under Indian law.

The questions below cover the data rights and account privacy topics we hear about most often from people who hold an 8jj account in India. If your question is not answered here, reach out through live chat and a privacy agent will respond within 24 hours.

We collect your name, email address, phone number, and date of birth at registration. Once you connect a payment method — UPI, Paytm, or PhonePe — we also store the reference identifiers generated by each transaction for financial record-keeping and security checks.

We share data only with licensed payment processors — such as the gateway that handles your UPI or PhonePe transfers — and when required by Indian courts or regulators. We do not sell your personal data to advertisers or unrelated third parties under any circumstances.

Account registration and payment records are kept for seven years after account closure to comply with Indian financial regulations. Session logs and device identifiers are purged after 90 days, whether your account is active or closed.
