We value your privacy and are committed to safeguarding personal information collected when you access our portal, reserve turf slots for Box Cricket or Football, register for sports tournaments, or use our mobile PWA app.

2. Personal Data We Collect

We collect only the essential information needed to fulfill your turf bookings, verify player identity, and ensure safety:

  • Contact & Identity: Full Name and 10-digit Indian Mobile Phone Number.
  • Authentication Records: One-Time Password (OTP) validation timestamps and secure cryptographic session tokens to authenticate your account and prevent fraudulent logins.

  • Loyalty Balance (NK Coins): Coin earnings accrued on completed bookings, coin debits during discount redemptions, and active reward point balances.
  • Device & Security Telemetry: IP address, device type, operating system, and browser version used during login to enforce active session limits and prevent unauthorized access.

3. Payment Gateway Security (Razorpay)

We take monetary safety with utmost seriousness:

  • All digital payments (UPI, Google Pay, PhonePe, Paytm, Debit/Credit Cards, and Net Banking) are processed directly by Razorpay Software Private Limited, an RBI-authorized and PCI-DSS Level 1 compliant payment aggregator.
  • NKSC Sports Complex does NOT collect, handle, or store any sensitive financial credentials, including credit card numbers, CVVs, expiry dates, net banking passwords, or UPI PINs on our servers.
  • Our servers receive only an encrypted payment confirmation token, payment status (`captured` or `failed`), Razorpay Order ID, and Payment ID for receipt generation and verification.

  • Session Authentication: We use lightweight HTTP-only cookies and local storage tokens to keep you logged in securely while booking slots across pages.
  • PWA Offline Cache: When you install our PWA app on Android or iOS, our Service Worker caches graphical assets and styling for lightning-fast loading even on slow 4G/5G networks.
  • No Cross-Site Ad Trackers: We do not load intrusive third-party ad-tracking cookies or sell behavioral profile records to advertising networks.
