Data Sharing and Disclosure

hbd88 does not share your personal data with third parties except in the following circumstances:

• Payment processors: We share necessary financial and identity data with our approved payment processing partners (bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay) solely for the purpose of processing your deposits and withdrawals. These partners are contractually bound to process your data only as instructed by hbd88 and in accordance with applicable data protection standards.
• Identity verification providers: We may share identity document data with accredited third-party KYC and AML verification service providers to assist in verifying your identity and conducting fraud screening. These providers process your data as data processors acting on our behalf.
• Game providers: Our third-party game providers (including Evolution Gaming, Pragmatic Play, Ezugi, NetEnt, Microgaming, Spribe, and others) may receive limited technical data such as your session identifier and game activity data necessary to deliver their gaming products on our platform. Game providers do not receive your full identity data.
• Legal and regulatory authorities: hbd88 may be required to disclose your personal data to government authorities, law enforcement agencies, regulatory bodies, or courts of competent jurisdiction where required to do so by applicable law, court order, or legal process. We will notify you of such disclosures where we are legally permitted to do so.
• Business transfers: In the event that hbd88 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. We will notify affected players prior to any such transfer and ensure the acquiring entity assumes equivalent privacy obligations.
• Professional advisors: We may share personal data with our legal counsel, auditors, and financial advisors where necessary for the provision of professional services, subject to strict confidentiality obligations.

In all cases where hbd88 shares personal data with third-party processors, we ensure appropriate data processing agreements are in place that require those parties to process your data securely, confidentially, and only for the specified purpose.

International Data Transfers

hbd88 operates as an international platform and your personal data may be stored and processed on servers located outside Bangladesh. Where personal data is transferred outside of your home jurisdiction, hbd88 takes steps to ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your data to a standard equivalent to that which applies within Bangladesh.

Safeguards that hbd88 employs for international data transfers include:

• Entering into standard contractual clauses with data recipients that impose equivalent data protection obligations.
• Transferring data only to jurisdictions that have been assessed as providing an adequate level of data protection by recognised international standards.
• Implementing technical and organisational security measures on all data systems, regardless of where they are located.

If you would like more information about the specific safeguards applicable to international transfers of your personal data, please contact us at [email protected].

Data Retention

hbd88 retains personal data for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, to comply with applicable legal and regulatory obligations, and to resolve disputes or enforce our agreements. The following general retention periods apply:

• Account data: Retained for the duration of your active account plus a minimum of 5 years following account closure, as required by anti-money laundering regulations and gaming licence obligations.
• KYC and identity documents: Retained for a minimum of 5 years following the completion of the KYC verification process or account closure, whichever is later, in compliance with AML obligations.
• Transaction records: All deposit, withdrawal, and betting transaction records are retained for a minimum of 7 years for financial compliance and dispute resolution purposes.
• Customer support records: Communications with our support team are retained for 3 years from the date of the interaction.

Upon expiry of the applicable retention period, personal data is securely deleted using industry-standard data destruction methods, or anonymised such that it can no longer be associated with any individual player.

Your Data Rights

As an hbd88 player, you have the following rights with respect to your personal data. To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at [email protected] with the subject line "Data Rights Request" and include proof of your identity.

hbd88 will respond to all data rights requests within 30 calendar days of receipt. We reserve the right to request proof of identity before fulfilling any data rights request to protect against fraudulent claims. Where a request is complex or involves a large volume of data, we may extend the response period by a further 60 days, in which case we will notify you of the extension and the reasons for it.

Children's Privacy

The hbd88 platform is strictly restricted to persons aged 21 years and above. hbd88 does not knowingly collect, process, or retain personal data from individuals under the age of 21. If we become aware that personal data has been collected from a person under 21 years of age, we will immediately close that account, delete all associated personal data, and void any transactions conducted through that account.

If you are a parent or guardian and believe that your child under the age of 21 has registered an account on hbd88, please contact us immediately at [email protected]. We will investigate and take appropriate action within 48 hours of receiving such a report.

Security Measures

hbd88 implements a comprehensive set of technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, alteration, or disclosure. Our security infrastructure includes:

• Encryption: All personal data stored on hbd88 systems is encrypted at rest using AES-256 encryption. All data transmitted between your device and our servers is protected by 256-bit SSL/TLS encryption, verified by a valid SSL certificate.
• Access controls: Access to personal data within hbd88 is restricted on a strict need-to-know basis. Employee access is governed by role-based access controls and is logged and audited regularly.
• Two-factor authentication: All internal hbd88 staff accounts that have access to player data are protected by mandatory two-factor authentication. We also offer 2FA to players for their own account security.
• Penetration testing: hbd88 engages independent security firms to conduct regular penetration testing and vulnerability assessments of our platform and data infrastructure.
• Incident response: hbd88 maintains a documented data breach incident response plan. In the event of a data breach that poses a risk to your rights, we will notify affected players without undue delay and within the timeframes required by applicable law.
• Staff training: All hbd88 employees receive mandatory data protection and security awareness training upon onboarding and annually thereafter.

While hbd88 takes every reasonable precaution to protect your personal data, no system is completely immune to security risks. We encourage players to protect their own account security by using a strong, unique password and enabling two-factor authentication. If you suspect any unauthorised access to your account, contact us immediately at [email protected].

Third-Party Services

The hbd88 platform integrates third-party services including game providers, payment processors, identity verification tools, and analytics platforms. Each of these third parties operates under its own privacy policy and data processing terms. While hbd88 selects its third-party partners carefully and requires them to maintain appropriate data protection standards through contractual data processing agreements, hbd88 is not responsible for the independent data practices of those third parties.

The hbd88 website does not contain links to external third-party websites for browsing or commercial purposes. All third-party service integrations are embedded directly within the hbd88 platform for operational purposes only. You will not be redirected to external sites as part of normal platform use.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

hbd88 reserves the right to update this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in our data processing practices, applicable laws, or operational requirements. When we make material changes to this Policy, we will notify registered players by email to the address associated with their account and by posting a prominent notice on the hbd88 website at least 14 days before the changes take effect.

The "Last Updated" date at the top of this Policy will be revised each time the Policy is amended. We encourage you to review this Policy periodically to stay informed about how hbd88 protects your personal data. Continued use of the hbd88 platform following the effective date of any revised Policy constitutes your acceptance of the updated terms.

If you do not agree with any changes to this Privacy Policy, you should discontinue use of the hbd88 platform and may request account closure by contacting [email protected] prior to the effective date of the change.
