All submitted documents are stored in a secure environment and used solely for verification purposes. hk4d employs advanced encryption technology to protect all uploaded identity documents.

The KYC process is typically completed within 24 to 48 business hours. Your first withdrawal will only be processed after KYC has been successfully completed.

Section 8

  • All registrations go through a strict age verification process
  • Identity documents verified during KYC are used for definitive age verification
  • Accounts found to be owned by minors will be closed immediately and all balances returned to the legal guardian
  • If you believe someone under the age of 18 has registered a hk4d account, please contact us immediately

Child protection is a shared responsibility. hk4d encourages parents and guardians to use parental control software and discuss the risks of online gambling with their children.

Section 9
