Your privacy matters to the ArcadeVirell crew. Here is exactly how we handle your personal information.
ArcadeVirell is a free, points-based social entertainment platform built around the theme of pirate-era BlackJack. We are operated by ArcadeVirell, headquartered at Kolagave, Chikkamagaluru, Karnataka, India. This Privacy Policy explains what personal data we collect when you use our website, why we collect it, how it is stored and protected, who it may be shared with, and what rights you hold over that information. We encourage you to read it in full before setting sail.
Because ArcadeVirell is purely entertainment-based with no real money, no wagering, and no prizes, we collect significantly less personal data than a commercial gaming operator would. Our philosophy is simple: collect only what is genuinely needed to run the platform safely and improve your experience, and never use your data for anything you would not reasonably expect.
When you visit ArcadeVirell we may collect the following categories of information. Technical data includes your IP address, browser type and version, operating system, referring URL, pages visited, and session duration. This data is collected automatically by our servers and analytics tools. Registration data such as your chosen pirate alias and any optional profile customisations is collected when you create an account. We do not require a real name or date of birth beyond your self-confirmed age verification. Gameplay data such as points balances, hand history, and voyage log entries is stored to power platform features like leaderboards and personal statistics.
Communication data — if you contact us through any support channel, we will retain the content of that correspondence to assist in resolving your query. We do not collect payment information of any kind because ArcadeVirell is entirely free to use and involves no financial transactions whatsoever.
To create and maintain your account, run the card tables, track points, and deliver the full ArcadeVirell experience including seasonal events and voyage logs.
Anonymised usage data helps us identify which features are most loved, where bugs occur, and how to make every voyage smoother for the whole crew.
To enforce our 18+ age restriction, detect fraudulent or abusive behaviour, and comply with applicable laws and regulations in the jurisdictions where we operate.
ArcadeVirell does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to any third party. We may share limited technical data with trusted service providers who help us operate the platform — for example, hosting infrastructure and anonymised analytics providers. All such providers are contractually bound to use data only for the purposes we specify and to maintain appropriate security standards.
We may disclose data where required by law, court order, or regulatory authority. We will always endeavour to notify you of such disclosures where legally permitted to do so.
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may hold certain rights regarding your personal data: the right to access a copy of data we hold about you; the right to correct inaccurate information; the right to request deletion of your data; the right to restrict or object to certain processing; and the right to data portability. To exercise any of these rights, please reach out to us through the contact details provided in our footer. We will respond within 30 days.
We retain account and gameplay data for as long as your account is active. If you request deletion, we will remove your personal data within a reasonable timeframe, retaining only what is legally required for compliance purposes.
Policy Updates: We may revise this Privacy Policy as the platform evolves or as regulations change. The revision date at the top of this page will always be current. Material changes will be highlighted on the platform.
