Topic: How Much do you Value your Privacy in Gambling? (Read 900 times)

There are people who value their privacy over 70k. Such people know the value of information and won’t be willing to put their information on just any online casino for a meagre amount of 70k.
Putting privacy in quotes like it is nothing compared to a “life changing money” of 70 grand is wild. 70k is admittedly a lot of money that, if utilized just right, can go a long way but it’s nothing compared to keeping relevant information private.

You may not be making 70k now with your privacy intact. But you can suddenly lose a lot more than 70k with certain information about you available and in the wrong hands.

Well, we are already living in a world where there is no KYC casino. The casinos that are completely KYC free are either very new or untrusted ones and playing there is not risk free. Some of them may let you play freely but won't let you withdraw with KYC.
So unless in future we will see some Web 3 decentralized casinos, that may be with the KYC, but right now we are live in a centralized world with KYC.



Even trusted platforms can misuse the KYC documents, can't they? What is the proof and guarantee that they will safeguard or protect our data ?
There is no guarantee at all. I don't know why the regulators who enforce the KYC on the customers, do not set the standards for keeping our data safe too, breaching it would result in heavy fines on the casinos and centralized gambling sites.

With regulatory pressures all around, there will soon be no no-KYC casinos in the industry and then those who are hesitant to provide their personal details and information to casino platforms will not have a choice but to comply with the rules and regulations imposed by the casinos. I don't say one shouldn't care about their privacy, but when we use the services of a platform, they can obviously ask us for details and information that they might need to verify whether we are clean and aren't involved in anything illegal or something.

Those who have doubts about the integrity of the platforms and think that their information might be misused should find and use the most reputable and trusted platforms of the industry to rest assured that their data is secure and it isn't going to be used for illegal means or wouldn't be sold to third parties.

Reputation is a very important thing not only for a casino business, it's important for every business but since we are commenting on the casino here I would like to continue without making generalizations about all businesses. Yes, unfortunately, users have a serious trust problem especially in the gambling industry and this means that gambling businesses need to be more meticulous about reputation. Especially for online casino services, reputation is as important as game variety, payment variety and ease of use. Although many gamblers are ready to lose the budget they use for gambling in these games, they prefer a reputable online casino service so that they can withdraw their money without any problems in case of a possible win.

In addition, it is very important to choose a reputable service for personal information and data security because it will not be easy to predict whether a non-reputable business will use our personal information and data maliciously. Considering that many people's personal data and information are sold on the internet today, there is no guarantee that a disreputable casino company will not sell this data and information.

In short, one of the most important criteria to evaluate especially when choosing an online casino service is reputation. In order to ensure personal data and information confidentiality to ensure money traffic in case of a possible winnigs and to receive perfect support in a possible situation the person must analyze and research the service they will use very well.

There are casinos that are also known for asking KYC but as long as you're allowed to gamble on their platform without having the need to KYC, it's because that you're not yet triggering them.

I agree also that if you're okay with KYC, make sure that you're submitting it to the casino that you trust.

Because not all of them are trustworthy especially if it's about not just the money or crypto we deposit but also with our information and IDs that we send to them.

This is true. If the winner is apprehensive about revealing their real information through KYC, they can potentially hire someone to handle it on their behalf and pay a fee after the winnings are withdrawn. However, this is another way, and it's on the illegal side because what is being submitted is not really one's own information. But do gambling sites detect that? Of course not.

Nevertheless, the topic was primarily focused on our personal perceptions, so I still believe that most of us would opt for KYC, especially when the amount involved is hard to resist.

With the amount won compared to the capital used, I'm sure there will be many who will ultimately choose to do KYC because it's hard to just let go of a large amount like that, sometimes there are even players who are willing to do KYC only for an amount of money that is much smaller than that amount.
If you can choose, of course you will still maintain privacy by not carrying out KYC, but unfortunately almost all casinos require KYC if not at the beginning, then at times the casinos feel they have to ask for KYC from us users. That's why it's better not to move casinos just because you're chasing bonuses because KYC will be difficult to avoid.

I thinking using an alternative information can be a disaster if the team of the casino find out that we are not using our own information which can always backfired. The best is for us to abstain from casinos that ask for KYC or look for the ones that do ask for simple KYC verification not the one that would ask us about confirmation of our house address and certificates. This kind of verification looks complicated to me and I would never submitted something like this to online casinos when I know that it can pose a big risk to me we mostly when the information get to the wrong hands.

But who will fully trust a new website anyway? We won't even get encouraged to deposit on them. How much more giving our personal information? They need to show their worth first or better if they won't ask a KYC first, so that they can still get some customers.

Casino is already a profitable business so owners should be contented already of what they are earning. Not that they will sold their customer's personal information to make more income. That's a greedy attitude. Even if let say they can get away with it. I believe there are still a bad karma that can haunt them later on where they can experience a tragic event in their lives.

To some extent, we have to be more proactive in our approach to the security of funds and data because sometimes our data are gravely exposed by those performs that we provide them with them for kyc procedure,  but then we have to everly settle this issue even before we make any deposits into the casinos not being amazed when we are being asked to provide some sensitive documents to verify accounts which we have already won a significantly huge amount in.

The best way to go about this issue is to choose wisely the casino that we want to gamble on and also make sure that we agree with their terms of service before we open an account in such casinos and also make sure that we read and understand the terms of service of that casino to decide whether or not we are willing to face their rules such like kKYC

There is a limited privacy when we use a casino to bet but it might get worse when we start submitting our information on casinos for KYC without checking the casino if they can be trusted or not. Those that knows how to bet on non KYC casinos are more safe than people on a non KYC casinos where they would drop their information and they don't know how the team intend to do with their information. We can only gamble on a KYC casino if we know the team are highly trusted with good and high review although that is not a guarantee that we need to submit our information on a casino.

Yes, Privacy is not an issue for $70000. Because with such an amount it is possible to change the whole life. So I don't think anyone would care about his privacy for such an amount at least at that time. And kyc is mandatory in almost all sites so doing kyc is not a problem even if you don't get an amount like $70k. But if not a large amount of money is involved, people may be a bit concerned about their privacy.  But when someone uses a trusted site they don't even have this thought

First of all, before any serious gambler use any casino, first thing he ought to have check is if the Casino requires a KYC or not, if you are the type that sidestep casinos with a mandatory KYC, it's better you avoid them quickly and if giving your last family to have your money isn't a problem to you then, it's nothing to worry about but I will advise you to do a KYC before you start playing in any casino, there are instances where Casino can reject your documents just so they can stop you from having access to your winnings, it happens.

The whole saga about KYC and gambling isn't an issue to me because if you are not playing in a casino that doesn't request for KYC, then the gambler should know from beginning that there privacy doesn't matter to them, the very day they signed up and register an account is the day they forgone their privacy, playing in a KYC casino means your privacy is gone.

Not gambling online, not shopping online, and not doing anything online may protect them in terms of privacy because they don't need to verify their accounts so they can feel safe because they don't submit any documents to second or third parties. That's why we need to look for a casino that suits us, and it's not easy because we have to check them one by one and not rely on advice from other people. After all, what someone else uses may be different from what we want.

Casinos can do whatever they like, and this is where we have to check in more detail so that we know that the casino will not cause problems for its members. Trusted casinos will not have any problems because it is related to their reputation. Instead, they will explain everything to their customers who need help understanding more about the rules of their casino. They can use crypto to gamble, but we have to remember that casinos can ask us to do KYC anytime they want, so we have to make sure that we can get a casino that suits us.

When it comes to issues with money, I doubt if there will be anybody willing to choose "privacy" over a life-changing money (i.e $70,000) in this present economy where "Sapa don dey show people Shege" (i.e Nigerian slang which means hungry people). Because if it is I personally, I will say that I can only go for privacy, if only with my privacy I'm able to make more than $70,000 early weekly or monthly. But if with my privacy, I'm still not able to make regular $70,000, then I don't mind submitting all the necessary information just to get my $70,000. Because I didn't steal the money, I worked hard for it, and every good labourer deserves his wages.

A must thing to do but there are really that people who are really that adventurous and does really like to touch up new places or platforms then this is where they do really put up themselves at risks which i dont really see for it to be worth but since we do know that not all sites or new ones would really be turning out to be a scam then there's a probability that theres a chance  that it would really be that become successful or popular in the future. No one really knows because recognition and demand will really be that basing or depending on how a certain platform would really perform and able to get peoples attention.

Privacy does really matter on this crypto world because this industry wont really be that become big and known if it is really just that the same with that fiat gambling on which we know that our information is really that been exposed or known in default. On the time that you do really be able to encounter such sudden KYC on crypto based platforms then it would really be that creating that some sort of
impression that it isnt really just that right that decentralized market will really go or touch up into this path.

I agree.

By the time that you step on into a casino, you're gonna expose your data on them and you have no choice but to be obliged on obeying them.

Even if there's a casino that tells you that you are 100% KYC safe and they'll never ask you that in the future, still don't be confident.

On the case of getting that money, I can do a lot of things with that. So be it, privacy matters or not, you'll gonna get KYCed so you have got no option though.

This is why it's very important to sign up with only regulated casinos, casinos who are regulated within your region is easier to deal with Incase such as this but if they are not  registered and regulated they could get away with any act and legal actions cannot be taken against them. If they happen to be a reputable and regulated casino, you can go ahead and provide them with the required information after all the money is Worth it.

Not providing the information is at your detriment, I'm sure these casino wouldn't want to dig into your personal life and if they eventually request certain details, it's possible you make changes after withdrawal to continually keep yourself safe, and if any issues arises resulting from the information you provided them you could report them or take actions against them if they are reputable enough, they would do everything to get the issues resolved and make sure further actions is not taken as it will be bad business for them and they wouldn't want such for their business.

Reputation is very important. The image of a casino is very important to gamblers because the industry is full of dishonest businesses and problems. The problems that come up when a business doesnt have a good reputation arent small things; they're disasters ready to happen. On the surface, the problem may seem simple, but its actually caused by a complex web of possible problems.

You made it clear that identity checking is more than just a formality. Because i's required by the government, dishonest companies can twist and turn it to suit their own needs. Its not just about winning; its also about keeping your money and reputation safe. As you said, the solution isnt revolutionary, but it is undeniably important: more study. Just picking a reputable business isnt enough; you have to dig deep, look closely, and stay aware all the time. Not only is it important to play the game well, but also to understand all of its subtleties.

By not gambling at all, this is the only way to protect your privacy in gambling, because for the safety of gamblers we need to use a regulated casino for our good, you aren't safe either if you start using any casino that promised you that no form of verification will be carried out.

Trust me, such casinos are capable of doing anything they like because asking for KYC is an act of legal operation, nothing makes sense than a casino having the appropriate license, before you make deposit on any casinos you must be certain that they follow the regulations or else your money isn't safe either, not even your information is protected.

If you crave for privacy when gambling, use crypto for your bets and use a well regulated casino, if you don't like KYC do not gamble, find something else to do, but if you don't care about your privacy and information, you can use any casino you see, including those that don't need your KYC.
