Krafton Released New BGMI Privacy Policy: Ensuring Data Protection and User Privacy
BATTLEGROUNDS MOBILE INDIA, commonly known as BGMI, is an immensely popular mobile video game that has captured the attention of players across India. As players immerse themselves in the intense battle royale gameplay, the privacy and security of their personal information are of paramount importance. In line with this, KRAFTON, Inc. and its affiliates have implemented a comprehensive Privacy Policy to protect the rights and data of individual players.
Effective from May 26, 2023, this Privacy Policy outlines the practices and procedures adopted by KRAFTON to collect and utilize personal information throughout the player’s engagement with BGMI. The company is committed to complying with all applicable laws and regulations governing the handling of personal data, ensuring the privacy and confidentiality of its players.
BGMI offers a range of game services, including the official site and various in-game features such as events, surveys, payment services, and customer support. KRAFTON acknowledges that information about players is necessary to provide these services and enters into contracts with players. Consequently, the Privacy Policy categorizes the information collected into three main categories: information obtained directly from players, information collected automatically, and information acquired from third parties.
What information will be collected from BGMI Players?
When interacting with BGMI, players may voluntarily provide certain personal information, including their nickname, email address, name, phone number, date of birth, gender, and country of residence. This data is primarily used for registration purposes, customer support, participation in surveys and events, and e-sports tournaments. It’s important to note that certain social features, such as game chat, may involve the disclosure of information that becomes publicly accessible.
Additionally, BGMI collects certain information automatically during gameplay and service usage. This includes device information (such as IP address, device ID, OS version), data generated during gameplay, device event information (e.g., crash reports), and browsing behavior on the official site and associated services.
How collected information will be used?
To enhance the player experience, BGMI integrates with third-party platforms such as Google, Apple, Game Center, Twitter, and Facebook. In such cases, the Privacy Policy outlines the information collected from these platforms, including profile/account details and purchase history.
Safeguarding user data is a priority for BGMI. The Privacy Policy explains the use of cookies and related technologies to recognize users’ browsers or devices, understand their interests, and provide essential features and services. The policy emphasizes that players can manage their cookie preferences through their browser settings. Additionally, the Privacy Policy highlights the use of website/app analytics services, including Google Analytics, to improve the site and game offerings.
The collected information serves several purposes, including operating the game service, conducting events and surveys, ensuring technical stability, preventing cheating and inappropriate gameplay, analyzing player trends, and providing customer support. KRAFTON ensures that the processing of personal information is carried out within the legal framework, with legitimate interests, and with the necessary consent from players.
While KRAFTON values player privacy, certain instances require sharing information with contracted third parties. These parties include program restriction providers, cloud computing service providers, payment service providers, marketing platforms, online survey service providers, customer service providers, and e-sports event organizers. Such sharing is done to enhance the gaming experience, offer tailored services, and comply with legal obligations.
To protect personal information, BGMI employs appropriate security measures to prevent unauthorized access, alteration, or disclosure. Strict access controls, confidentiality agreements, and safety procedures are in place to ensure the utmost privacy and data security.
The Privacy Policy also recognizes the rights of players, including the right to object to or restrict processing, access their personal information, rectify or delete data, and request data portability. It provides details on the process to exercise these rights and contact KRAFTON’s Data Protection Officer for any privacy-related concerns.

Realme is ready to launch a new pair of wireless earbuds called the Buds Air 7 Pro. These earbuds will launch on April 23 along with the upcoming GT 7 smartphone. The Buds Air 7 Pro aims to bring top-level features to the TWS segment, including powerful sound, high-quality noise cancellation, and long battery life.
Realme Buds Air 7 Pro Specifications
The Buds Air 7 Pro will come with dual dynamic drivers. These promise better sound quality and clearer separation across different audio levels. One of the standout features is its 53dB deep-sea-grade noise cancellation system. This system uses adaptive algorithms to block out more background noise for a better listening experience.
Realme says the earbuds can last up to 48 hours with the charging case. The design is similar to the earlier Buds Air 7 model. It has an in-ear fit and a stem-based shape. The case now has an opaque finish instead of the transparent lid seen in the previous version. The Buds Air 7 Pro will come in four colors – white, red, green, and grey.
The Buds Air 7 Pro builds upon the base set by the Buds Air 7, which launched in February. The older model featured 12.4mm titanium-plated drivers and a copper voice coil. It also supported LHDC 5.0 for high-resolution audio streaming at 96kHz/1000kbps. Users could adjust sound settings using the Realme Link app.
Realme also added strong noise cancellation in the Buds Air 7 with 52dB Intelligent Deep Sea Noise Reduction 3.0. It had six microphones and AI-based call noise reduction for better voice clarity. The earbuds also included 3D Spatial Audio and tuning options for high, mid, and low frequencies based on the user’s liking.
The Buds Air 7 had an IP55 rating for water and dust resistance and passed several durability tests. It supported Bluetooth 5.4 and features like dual device pairing, 45ms low-latency mode, and Swift Pair for Windows. All these made it a great option in the premium TWS category.

A new OnePlus tablet has been spotted on the FCC certification website. The device carries the model number OPD2408. While the listing does not reveal any of its specifications, it has started a wave of speculation. Many believe this could be a rebranded version of the Oppo Pad 4 Pro which was launched in China just a week ago.
OnePlus and Oppo are sister brands under the same parent company. They have a history of rebranding devices, especially tablets. So if OnePlus decides to follow this trend again, it would not be a surprise. However, it’s important to note that this is still just a rumor and has not been confirmed by the company. If the guess turns out to be true the new tablet might be called the OnePlus Pad 3 Pro. It will likely join the Pad 3 which was officially announced in December as part of the OnePlus tablet lineup.
As for the expected features, if it is indeed a rebranded Oppo Pad 4 Pro, the tablet could come with a large 13.2-inch LCD display with a resolution of 2400 by 3392 pixels. It might also support a 144 Hz refresh rate and brightness of 900 nits, Snapdragon 8 Elite chip, and could be available in three RAM options — 8 GB, 12 GB and 16 GB, storage may include 256 GB and 512 GB using the fast UFS 4.0 technology, a 13 MP rear camera, and an 8 MP front-facing camera. It may also come with a large 12,140 mAh battery, which supports 67W wired charging.

Nothing has released Nothing OS 3.0 April update for the Nothing Phone (2a) Plus. The update comes with the build number PacmanPro-V3.0-250410-1524-IND and has a size of 211 MB.
One of the highlights of this update is the introduction of the Nothing Gallery. However, there are no big changes to it, as the app was already available earlier through the Google Play Store. This update might have only brought some optimizations to make it smoother.
Another new feature is a shortcut to quickly Clear All apps. Now, users can long-press and swipe up in the Recent Apps menu to clear all running apps. It’s worth noting that this feature had already come earlier through a Nothing Launcher update.
To improve security, Nothing has added a power-off password verification feature. This prevents someone from immediately turning off the phone if it is lost. You can find this option by searching “Power off verify” in the Settings menu.
The update also brings a new toggle that lets users disable the unlock vibration on the lock screen. You can change this setting by adjusting the touch feedback options.
In addition, the design of the pop-up view has been optimized to make it look and work better. The phone also receives the latest April 2025 security patch, helping to keep it safe from new threats.
Lastly, Nothing has worked on improving system stability and has fixed an issue where emergency dialing could fail in rare cases in certain areas.
Overall, this update brings important improvements and security updates, even though some features were already available earlier. Users are advised to install it for a better and safer experience.
