Compliance at Fan Arena
How Fan Arena approaches compliance and clear boundaries.
Fan Arena Fantasy Sports Private Limited runs a free fantasy cricket app for adult users (18+) in India, available only in regions where fantasy sports is allowed. We do not offer deposits, paid entry formats, or monetary rewards. This page explains how we think about legal, regulatory, and platform expectations and what that means for how Fan Arena is built and presented.
This page is for general information only and is not legal advice. Laws and platform policies can change, and users should consult their own advisors if they need a legal view on any of these topics.
Where Fan Arena sits in the fantasy sports landscape.
In simple terms, Fan Arena is on the “free fantasy” side of the spectrum. We provide a structured way for adult cricket fans to build line-ups, track performance and follow matches more closely—without tying that experience to payments or cash-based payouts.
That means no deposit flow, no real-money wallet, and no messaging that suggests financial returns. Instead, our focus is on transparent rules, clearly-stated eligibility conditions, and a product design that emphasises cricket decisions and responsible use.
Age and region restrictions: who Fan Arena is for.
Fan Arena is designed for adult users only. Users must be 18 years of age or older and physically located in India in regions where fantasy sports is permitted. The product is not meant for minors and not meant for users in restricted states.
As a matter of policy, Fan Arena is not available in Andhra Pradesh, Assam, Nagaland, Odisha, Sikkim, Telangana, Tamil Nadu, or any other region where fantasy sports is not permitted under local rules. If these conditions are not met, users should not access or use the app.
Our website and apps repeat this information clearly, including in eligibility gates, disclaimers and supporting pages like this one.
No deposits, no paid entry formats, no monetary rewards.
One of the most important parts of Fan Arena’s compliance approach is how the product is structured financially: it is a free fantasy cricket experience. That means:
What Fan Arena does not include.
- No deposit or top-up screens.
- No real-money wallet or in-app balance representing money.
- No paid entry contests or fee-based formats.
- No cash prizes, cash payouts, or financial returns.
How we talk about results.
- Points and rankings are explained as in-app performance indicators only.
- We avoid language that suggests “winning money” or financial gain.
- We do not frame Fan Arena as an income source or financial product.
If you ever see communication that appears to link Fan Arena to deposits, cash prizes, or income promises, please treat it with caution and verify directly via our official channels.
Communication, marketing, and platform policies.
How we describe Fan Arena is just as important as how it is built. Our communication choices are shaped by three goals: clarity for users, respect for local expectations, and alignment with platform rules (such as app stores or advertising policies).
How we present Fan Arena.
- Clearly labelled as a free fantasy cricket app for adult users (18+).
- Repeated reminders that there are no deposits or monetary rewards.
- Plain-language disclaimers about age and region restrictions.
- Emphasis on cricket, strategy, and responsible use—not on financial outcomes.
Advertising and promotions.
- Ads and promotions are drafted to avoid betting language or cash-win claims.
- We aim to keep messaging consistent across the website, app listings, and creatives.
- Where a platform’s rules are stricter than our own baseline, we follow the stricter standard.
Our goal is that a user seeing any Fan Arena touchpoint—web, app, or ad—gets the same core picture: free fantasy cricket, no monetary rewards, 18+ only, in eligible regions of India.
Product design choices that support compliance.
Compliance is not just policies on paper. It shows up in how users actually experience the product. Fan Arena’s interface, flows and terminology are deliberately designed to support our positioning as a free, responsible fantasy cricket app.
- Eligibility gate on web: visitors pass a language and age step before accessing full content, reinforcing that the product is for 18+ users in eligible regions.
- Cricket-first navigation: core screens are based on matches, line-ups and performance—not payments.
- Clear separation from real money: UI avoids any wallet-style visuals or interfaces that resemble finance apps.
- Responsible gaming content: there is a dedicated Responsible Gaming page with practical guidance on balanced use.
Data handling, privacy, and record-keeping.
Our approach to data is aligned with our overall product stance: collect only what we need to operate and improve the service, secure it responsibly, and explain clearly how it is used.
The main piece of personal information collected through the website is your mobile number, used to send an SMS with the app link or instructions. Inside the app, we also collect usage data to help us maintain stability, detect abuse, and understand feature performance.
Full details on what we collect, how long we keep it, and the rights and controls available to users are provided in our Privacy Policy .
What we expect from users.
Compliance is a two-way street. While Fan Arena is responsible for how the product is designed and communicated, users also have responsibilities when they choose to access or use our services.
User responsibilities include:
- Using Fan Arena only if you are 18+ and in an eligible region of India.
- Providing accurate information where required (for example, your mobile number).
- Respecting our Terms & Conditions and Responsible Gaming guidance.
- Not using automated tools or scripts to interact with the app.
If you are unsure about anything:
If you are not sure whether you meet the eligibility criteria, or you have questions about how Fan Arena is positioned, you should:
- Review this Compliance page and our Terms & Conditions in full.
- Contact our support team with specific questions.
- Seek independent advice if you need a formal legal or regulatory view.
Changes to this Compliance page.
Laws, regulations and platform policies evolve over time. Fan Arena may update this page to reflect new requirements, internal changes, or clarifications in how we describe our product.
When we make meaningful updates, we will adjust the “last updated” date below and, where appropriate, highlight changes in-app or via other communication channels. Continued use of Fan Arena after such changes indicates your acknowledgement of the updated information.
