This Policy applies to all personal data collected through any means including website interactions, account registration, customer support communications, payment processing, and gaming activity.

2. Information We Collect

nicepg collects various categories of personal information necessary to provide gaming services, comply with legal obligations, prevent fraud, and enhance user experience. The information we collect includes:
