This policy applies to all users of the 898bd website and any related services we may offer.

• Processing deposits and withdrawals through bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Dutch-Bangla Bank, City Bank, BRAC Bank, and other supported Bangladeshi payment channels

• Improving the 898bd platform through analytics, A/B testing, and user-experience research to serve Bangladesh players better

4. Sharing of Your Information

898bd does not share your personal data with unaffiliated third parties for their independent marketing use. However, limited sharing may occur in the following specific circumstances, each strictly controlled.

Service Providers and Technology Partners

We engage third-party companies to assist with payment processing (including bKash, Nagad), identity verification, fraud detection, cloud hosting, and customer-support software. These providers are contractually obligated to use your data only for the services they perform on our behalf and to maintain security standards equivalent to those we apply internally.

Legal and Regulatory Requirements

We may disclose your personal information when required by applicable law, court order, government authority, or when we reasonably believe that disclosure is necessary to protect the rights, property, or safety of 898bd, its users, or the public. In all such cases we disclose only the minimum data required.

Business Transfers

In the event of a merger, acquisition, restructuring, or sale of all or part of 898bd's business assets, your personal data may be transferred to the successor entity. You will be notified via the email address associated with your account and given a reasonable period to review any material changes to the terms governing your data before the transfer takes effect.

5. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

898bd uses cookies and similar technologies to enhance your browsing experience, maintain session security, and analyze platform usage. Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your browser. We use the following categories of cookies:

• Essential cookies — required for core platform functionality such as secure login sessions, account authentication, and fraud prevention; these cannot be disabled without breaking the platform
• Analytics cookies — allow us to understand how users navigate 898bd, which games are most popular, and how to improve the overall experience for Bangladeshi players
• Preference cookies — remember your language selection, display settings, and other personalization choices so you do not have to reconfigure them on every visit

You may manage cookie preferences through your browser settings. Please note that disabling essential cookies may limit your ability to access certain features of the 898bd platform, including account login and fund management.

6. Data Security

898bd employs industry-standard technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal data against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. Our security framework includes SSL/TLS encryption for all data transmitted between your device and our servers, bcrypt password hashing, role-based internal access controls, and regular security audits by qualified professionals.

While we take every reasonable precaution to safeguard your data, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is entirely infallible. We encourage you to use a strong, unique password for your 898bd account, enable any available two-factor authentication, and contact us immediately at [email protected] if you suspect any unauthorized activity on your account.

7. Data Retention

898bd retains your personal data for as long as your account remains active or as otherwise required to fulfil the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including compliance with legal obligations, resolution of disputes, and enforcement of our agreements. Account data is typically retained for a minimum of five years following account closure to satisfy anti-money-laundering and responsible gaming record-keeping requirements. When data is no longer required, it is securely deleted or anonymized so that it can no longer be associated with you.

8. Your Rights

As a user of the 898bd platform, you hold the following rights in relation to your personal data. To exercise any of these rights, please contact our support team at [email protected] with your account details and the specific right you wish to invoke. We will respond within a reasonable timeframe.

• Right of access — request a copy of the personal data we hold about you
• Right to rectification — request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data
• Right to erasure — request deletion of your data where it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, subject to legal retention obligations
• Right to restrict processing — request that we limit how we use your data in certain circumstances, for example while a dispute is being resolved
• Right to object — object to processing based on legitimate interests, including profiling, where your particular situation justifies it

We will acknowledge your request promptly and aim to resolve it fully within 30 days. In complex cases an extension may apply, but we will notify you in advance. Please note that some rights are subject to limitations where legal obligations require us to retain or process data regardless of your request.

9. Age Restriction

898bd is strictly an adults-only platform. You must be 21 years of age or older to register an account, place bets, play casino games, or conduct any transaction on this platform. We do not knowingly collect personal information from any individual under the age of 21. During account registration and KYC verification, we take reasonable steps to verify that users meet this age requirement.

If we discover or have reason to believe that a user under the age of 21 has provided us with personal data, we will take immediate steps to close the account, cancel any pending transactions, return funds to the payment source where possible, and delete the relevant data from our records. Parents or guardians who believe a minor has registered on the 898bd platform should contact us immediately at [email protected].

10. Third-Party Links

The 898bd platform may contain references to game providers (such as Pragmatic Play, Evolution Gaming, Spribe, Ezugi, Microgaming, and NetEnt), payment partners, and other services. This Privacy Policy applies exclusively to information collected and processed by 898bd. We are not responsible for the privacy practices, content, or security of any third-party services, and we encourage you to review the privacy policies of any external services you interact with.

11. Changes to This Privacy Policy

898bd reserves the right to update or modify this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in our data practices, legal requirements, or platform features. When we make material changes, we will update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page and, where appropriate, notify registered users via the email address on their account. Your continued use of the 898bd platform after any such update constitutes your acceptance of the revised Privacy Policy.
