5. Third-Party Disclosures & Non-Sale Policy

Bovada Poker does not sell, rent, monetize, or trade your personal information to third-party marketing brokers or advertisers under any circumstances.

All data exchanges between your terminal and Bovada Poker are protected through modern 256-bit TLS 1.3 protocol suites. Player balances are preserved in isolated crypto cold storage repositories shielded against network compromise. Access to user administrative dashboards is strictly limited to authenticated senior engineers subject to multi-layered biometric and hardware token verifications.
