Privacy Policy — How bdt98 Collects, Uses, and Safeguards Your Personal Data

Information We Collect

bdt98 collects personal data from players in order to provide a safe, compliant, and personalised gaming experience. We collect information in three primary ways: directly from you when you register and use the platform, automatically through your use of the bdt98 website, and from third-party providers where necessary to verify your identity or process payments.

Information You Provide Directly

When you create a bdt98 account or interact with our platform, you may be asked to provide the following categories of personal information:

• Identity data: Full legal name, date of birth, gender, and nationality.
• Contact data: Email address, mobile phone number, and residential address including city (e.g., Dhaka, Chittagong, Sylhet, Khulna).
• Account credentials: Your chosen username and a hashed version of your password. bdt98 does not store passwords in plain text.
• Verification documents: Government-issued photo identification (such as a National ID card or passport) and proof of address, collected as part of our identity verification process.
• Financial data: Payment method details such as your bKash, Nagad, or Rocket mobile wallet number, or the last four digits of a linked Visa or Mastercard card. Full card numbers are handled exclusively by our payment processors and are never stored on bdt98 servers.
• Communications data: Any messages, support tickets, or feedback you send to the bdt98 support team.

Information Collected Automatically

When you access bdt98, our systems automatically collect certain technical and behavioural data:

• Device and technical data: IP address, browser type and version, operating system, device identifiers, screen resolution, and time zone setting.
• Usage data: Pages visited, games played, time spent on the platform, betting history, deposit and withdrawal records, and clickstream data.
• Session data: Login timestamps, session duration, and logout events.
• Cookie and tracking data: Information gathered through cookies and similar technologies as described in the Cookies section of this policy.

Information from Third Parties

bdt98 may receive personal data about you from third-party sources in the following circumstances:

• Payment providers: Transaction confirmation data from bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay, Visa, Mastercard, and our banking partners including Dutch-Bangla Bank, City Bank, and BRAC Bank.
• Identity verification services: Confirmation of identity document authenticity from third-party Know Your Customer (KYC) verification partners.
• Fraud prevention partners: Risk scoring data used to detect and prevent fraudulent account activity or payment fraud.

How We Use Your Data

bdt98 processes your personal data only for legitimate, defined purposes. The table below summarises the primary purposes for which we use your information and the legal basis on which that processing rests.

Marketing Communications

bdt98 will only send you promotional emails, SMS notifications, or in-platform messages about bonuses, new games, and special offers if you have explicitly opted in to receive such communications during registration or via your account settings. You may withdraw your consent and opt out of marketing communications at any time by updating your account preferences or by contacting our support team. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out prior to the opt-out.

Sharing Your Information

bdt98 does not sell or rent your personal data to any third party. We may share your information with carefully selected third parties only in the circumstances described in this section, and only to the extent necessary for the stated purpose.

Service Providers and Data Processors

bdt98 engages third-party service providers to assist in operating the platform. These providers process personal data on our behalf and under our instructions, and are contractually required to maintain appropriate data security standards. Categories of service providers include:

• Payment processors: bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay, Visa, Mastercard, and banking partners for transaction processing.
• Identity verification providers: Third-party KYC platforms that assist in verifying player identity and age.
• Fraud and risk management: Providers of fraud detection, IP analysis, and anti-money laundering screening tools.
• Game content providers: Pragmatic Play, Evolution Gaming, NetEnt, Microgaming, Spribe, Ezugi, and other licensed game studios receive only the session and wager data necessary to deliver their games.
• IT infrastructure and hosting: Cloud infrastructure and content delivery network providers that host and serve the bdt98 platform.
• Customer support platforms: Tools used to manage support tickets and player communications.

Legal and Regulatory Disclosure

bdt98 may disclose your personal data to law enforcement authorities, regulatory bodies, financial intelligence units, or courts of competent jurisdiction where we are required to do so by applicable law, court order, or lawful governmental request. In such cases, bdt98 will disclose only the minimum data necessary to fulfil the legal obligation and will, where permitted by law, notify the affected player that a disclosure has been made.

Business Transfers

In the event that bdt98 undergoes a merger, acquisition, restructuring, or sale of all or part of its assets, your personal data may be transferred to the acquiring entity as part of that transaction. You will be notified of any such transfer and any material changes to this Privacy Policy that result from it, via your registered email address, before the transfer takes effect.

Cookies & Tracking Technologies

bdt98 uses cookies and similar tracking technologies — including web beacons, pixel tags, and local storage objects — to operate the platform, remember your preferences, analyse usage patterns, and deliver a more personalised experience. This section explains what cookies we use, why we use them, and how you can control them.

What Is a Cookie?

A cookie is a small text file placed on your device by a website when you visit it. Cookies allow the website to recognise your device on subsequent visits, remember your preferences and login state, and collect information about how you interact with the site. Cookies do not contain executable code and cannot be used to access other data stored on your device.

Categories of Cookies Used by bdt98

• Strictly necessary cookies: These cookies are essential for the bdt98 platform to function. They enable core features such as session management, login authentication, and security protections. These cookies cannot be disabled without breaking the platform's core functionality.
• Functional cookies: These cookies remember your account preferences, language settings, and display options so that your experience is consistent across sessions.
• Analytics cookies: bdt98 uses analytics tools to understand how players navigate the platform, which games are most popular, and where technical issues occur. This data is aggregated and anonymised wherever possible.
• Performance cookies: These cookies help bdt98 optimise page load times and platform responsiveness, particularly important for players accessing bdt98 from mobile devices across Bangladesh's mobile networks.

Managing Your Cookie Preferences

You can control and manage cookies through your web browser settings. Most modern browsers allow you to block, delete, or receive alerts about cookies. Please note that disabling strictly necessary cookies will impair the functionality of the bdt98 platform and may prevent you from logging in or placing bets. Instructions for managing cookies in popular browsers are available in each browser's help documentation. bdt98 does not currently respond to browser "Do Not Track" signals, as no uniform technical standard for such signals has been established.

Data Security & Retention

bdt98 takes the security of your personal data seriously and implements a range of technical and organisational measures designed to protect your information from unauthorised access, accidental loss, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.

Security Measures

• SSL/TLS encryption: All data in transit between your browser and bdt98 servers is encrypted using SSL/TLS protocols. Look for the padlock symbol in your browser's address bar when accessing bdt98.app.
• Password hashing: Account passwords are stored using a strong one-way cryptographic hashing algorithm. bdt98 staff cannot read your password in plain text.
• Access controls: Access to personal data within bdt98 is restricted on a need-to-know basis. Staff who handle player data undergo security training and are bound by confidentiality obligations.
• Fraud monitoring: Automated systems monitor account activity continuously for signs of unauthorised access or suspicious behaviour.
• Regular security reviews: bdt98 conducts periodic reviews of its data security infrastructure and processes to identify and address potential vulnerabilities.

Data Retention Periods

bdt98 retains personal data only for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by applicable legal, regulatory, or accounting obligations. The following general retention periods apply:

• Active account data: Retained for the duration of the account relationship and for a period of five (5) years following account closure, to meet anti-money laundering record-keeping requirements.
• Transaction records: Financial transaction data is retained for a minimum of five (5) years from the date of the transaction.
• Identity verification documents: Retained for a minimum of five (5) years following account closure or the date of the last transaction, whichever is later.
• Support communications: Retained for three (3) years from the date of the last communication, unless the matter relates to an ongoing dispute or legal proceeding.
• Marketing data: Retained until you withdraw consent for marketing communications, at which point your data is removed from our active marketing lists promptly.

Your Privacy Rights

As a player of bdt98, you hold a number of rights with respect to the personal data we hold about you. bdt98 is committed to respecting and facilitating the exercise of these rights. To exercise any of the rights described below, please contact our support team at [email protected]. We will respond to all verified requests within a reasonable timeframe.

Right of Access

You have the right to request a copy of the personal data that bdt98 holds about you, along with information about how that data is used, who it has been shared with, and how long it will be retained. We will provide this information in a clear, structured format.

Right to Rectification

If any personal data that bdt98 holds about you is inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to request that it be corrected or completed without undue delay. You may also update many of your personal details directly through your bdt98 account settings.

Right to Erasure

In certain circumstances, you have the right to request that bdt98 delete the personal data we hold about you. This right is subject to limitations where bdt98 is required to retain data to comply with a legal obligation, to establish, exercise, or defend a legal claim, or where the data is necessary for the performance of a contract with you.

Right to Restriction of Processing

You may request that bdt98 restrict the processing of your personal data in circumstances where you contest the accuracy of the data, where you object to processing based on legitimate interests, or where processing is unlawful but you prefer restriction over erasure.

Right to Data Portability

Where bdt98 processes your personal data on the basis of consent or contract performance using automated means, you have the right to receive a copy of that data in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format.

Right to Object

You have the right to object to the processing of your personal data where that processing is based on bdt98's legitimate interests. You also have an unconditional right to object to the processing of your data for direct marketing purposes. Upon receipt of a valid objection to direct marketing, bdt98 will cease that processing immediately.

Third-Party Services

The bdt98 platform integrates with a number of third-party services to deliver its full range of features. These third parties operate under their own privacy policies, and bdt98 is not responsible for the data practices of any third party. Players are encouraged to review the privacy policies of any third-party services they interact with directly.

Game Content Providers

Games on bdt98 are delivered under licence from providers including Pragmatic Play, Evolution Gaming, NetEnt, Microgaming, Spribe, and Ezugi. When you play a game on bdt98, certain session data — such as your player identifier, wager amounts, and game results — is transmitted to the relevant game provider to facilitate gameplay. This data sharing is strictly limited to what is necessary to run the game and is governed by data processing agreements between bdt98 and each provider.

Payment Service Providers

Deposits and withdrawals on bdt98 are processed via third-party payment service providers including bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay, Visa, and Mastercard. When you initiate a financial transaction, you will interact directly with these providers' payment infrastructure. bdt98 receives only a transaction confirmation and the minimum data necessary to credit your account or process your withdrawal. Full payment credentials are handled exclusively by the respective payment provider.

Analytics and Performance Tools

bdt98 uses analytics services to understand platform usage and improve the player experience. These tools collect aggregated, anonymised data about how players navigate bdt98. Where individual-level data is collected for analytics purposes, it is handled in accordance with this Privacy Policy and, where applicable, governed by data processing agreements with the analytics provider.

Changes to This Policy

bdt98 reserves the right to update or modify this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in our data practices, legal obligations, or the services we offer. The date at the top of this page will be updated whenever a revision is made. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically to remain informed about how we protect your personal data.

Continued use of the bdt98 platform after the effective date of a revised Privacy Policy constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
