1. Information We Collect
bha88 collects personal information in two primary ways: information you provide directly to us and information collected automatically when you use the platform. We only collect personal information that is necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy. We do not collect special category data (such as health information, ethnic origin, or political opinions) as part of normal platform operations.
Information You Provide Directly
When you register an account, make a deposit, request a withdrawal, or contact our support team, you may provide us with the following categories of personal data:
- Identity information — your full name, date of birth, and National ID or passport number (collected as part of KYC verification).
- Contact information — your registered mobile phone number and, where provided, an email address.
- Financial information — your bKash, Nagad, Rocket, or Upay mobile financial account number, transaction reference numbers, and deposit and withdrawal history.
- Support correspondence — messages and attachments you send to bha88 support, including complaint records and any documentation you submit as part of a KYC or dispute process.
Information Collected Automatically
When you use the bha88 platform via a web browser, our systems automatically collect certain technical and behavioural data. This data is used to ensure the platform operates correctly, to detect fraud and suspicious activity, and to improve platform performance:
- Device and browser data — device type, operating system, browser version, screen resolution, and IP address.
- Session data — pages visited, games played, betting activity, session start and end times, and clickstream data within the platform.
- Cookie and tracking data — see Section 8 of this Privacy Policy for full details of the cookies bha88 uses and your options for managing them.
2. How We Use Your Information
bha88 uses the personal information we collect for the following purposes. We only process personal data where we have a valid legal basis for doing so, as described in Section 3 of this Privacy Policy:
- Account registration and management — to create and maintain your bha88 account, verify your identity, and manage your account settings and preferences.
- Payment processing — to process deposits and withdrawals via bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay, and other supported payment methods, and to maintain records of your financial transactions on the platform.
- Fraud prevention and security — to detect, investigate, and prevent fraudulent transactions, money laundering, identity fraud, multi-accounting, and other forms of prohibited conduct on the platform.
- Responsible gaming compliance — to monitor player activity for signs of problem gambling behaviour, apply responsible gaming tools such as deposit limits and self-exclusion, and fulfil our duty of care obligations to players.
- Customer support — to respond to your queries, process complaints, and provide assistance with account, payment, and technical issues via our support channels.
- Platform improvement — to analyse aggregated usage data and improve the performance, features, and user experience of the bha88 platform, including optimising the platform for the mobile connections and devices most commonly used in Bangladesh.
Marketing Communications
bha88 may send you promotional messages about bonuses, new games, and platform features via SMS to your registered mobile number. These messages are sent only to registered players who have not opted out. You can opt out of marketing messages at any time by contacting bha88 support and requesting removal from our promotional mailing list. Opting out of marketing communications does not affect account-related or transactional communications, which are sent as necessary for the operation of your account.
3. Legal Basis for Processing
bha88 processes personal data on one or more of the following legal bases, depending on the specific processing activity:
- Contractual necessity — processing your registration data, managing your account, and processing deposits and withdrawals are necessary to fulfil the contract between you and bha88 when you register and use the platform.
- Legal obligation — collecting identity verification documents and maintaining transaction records are required to comply with applicable anti-money laundering, counter-terrorism financing, and responsible gaming obligations.
- Legitimate interests — fraud prevention, platform security monitoring, and aggregated analytics for platform improvement are conducted on the basis of bha88's legitimate interest in maintaining a safe, fair, and functional platform.
- Consent — where we send optional marketing communications (such as promotional SMS), we do so on the basis of your consent, which you may withdraw at any time.
4. Sharing Your Information
bha88 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to third parties for their own commercial or marketing purposes. We may share your personal data with the following categories of recipients only where strictly necessary and for the specific purposes described below:
Payment Service Providers
When you make a deposit or request a withdrawal, we share the transaction details necessary to process the payment with the relevant payment service provider (bKash, Nagad, Rocket, or Upay). These providers act as independent data controllers for their own services and their own privacy policies apply to data held within their systems. bha88 does not have access to your full mobile financial account credentials — only the information required to initiate and confirm the specific transaction.
Technology and Infrastructure Providers
bha88 uses third-party technology vendors to provide game content, platform infrastructure, fraud detection, and analytics services. These vendors are permitted to process personal data only on bha88's documented instructions and are contractually bound to maintain appropriate security measures and to use the data solely for the purpose of providing their service to bha88.
Legal and Regulatory Disclosure
bha88 may disclose personal data to law enforcement agencies, regulatory bodies, or other government authorities where required to do so by applicable law, court order, or in response to a lawful request. Where permitted by law, bha88 will attempt to notify the affected player before disclosing their data in response to such a request.
5. Payment Data and Local Payment Providers
All deposits and withdrawals on bha88 are processed in Bangladeshi Taka via bKash, Nagad, Rocket, and Upay. These are Mobile Financial Services (MFS) operated by regulated entities in Bangladesh. When you initiate a payment transaction on bha88, you are redirected to or prompted to confirm via the relevant MFS provider's own interface. bha88 receives confirmation of successful payment but does not store your MFS PIN, OTP, or full account password. The security of your MFS account credentials is governed by the terms and privacy policy of the respective provider.
bha88 retains records of financial transactions — including the payment method used, transaction amount, transaction reference number, and timestamp — for as long as required by applicable financial record-keeping obligations. These records may be used in connection with KYC verification, withdrawal processing, dispute resolution, and responses to regulatory or law enforcement requests.
6. Data Retention
bha88 retains personal data only for as long as is necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, or as required by applicable legal, regulatory, or contractual obligations. The following general retention periods apply, subject to any overriding legal requirement:
Account data and transaction records are retained for a minimum of 5 years from the date of account closure, in line with standard anti-money laundering record-keeping expectations. KYC documents are retained for the same minimum period. Support correspondence is retained for 2 years from the date of resolution of the relevant query or complaint. Where an account is suspended pending investigation, data may be retained for the duration of the investigation and for a reasonable period thereafter. When data is no longer required, it is securely deleted or anonymised so that it can no longer be associated with an individual player.
7. Data Security
bha88 implements appropriate technical and organisational security measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, destruction, or disclosure. These measures include SSL/TLS encryption for all data transmitted between your device and our platform, access controls that restrict internal access to personal data to authorised personnel only on a need-to-know basis, regular security assessments of our platform and infrastructure, and procedures for detecting and responding to personal data breaches.
While bha88 takes the security of your personal data seriously and maintains industry-standard protections, no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure. You also play an important role in keeping your account secure — please use a strong, unique password for your bha88 account, never share your login credentials with anyone, and contact bha88 support immediately if you suspect that your account has been compromised.
8. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
The bha88 platform uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to keep the platform functional, remember your session, and collect anonymous analytics data. This section explains what types of cookies bha88 uses and how you can manage your cookie preferences.
Essential Cookies
Essential cookies are required for the bha88 platform to function correctly. They maintain your login session so you do not need to re-authenticate every time you navigate between pages, store your language preference, and enable core platform features such as the game lobby and account management section. Essential cookies cannot be disabled without breaking the platform's core functionality.
Analytical Cookies
bha88 uses anonymous analytical cookies to understand how players use the platform — for example, which game categories are most popular, where players encounter difficulties, and how the platform performs on different mobile devices. This data is aggregated and anonymised; it cannot be used to identify you as an individual. Analytical cookies help bha88 improve the platform for all Bangladesh players. You may disable analytical cookies by adjusting your browser settings; this will not affect your ability to use the platform.
Managing Cookies
Most modern web browsers allow you to view, manage, delete, and block cookies through the browser's settings menu. Please note that blocking all cookies may affect the functionality of websites other than bha88. For guidance on managing cookies in the most commonly used browsers in Bangladesh (Chrome on Android, Samsung Internet, Firefox Mobile), please refer to the help documentation of your specific browser. bha88 does not currently use a cookie consent banner because the only cookies in use are essential session cookies and anonymised analytics cookies that do not involve personal data profiling.
9. Your Data Rights
As a player on bha88, you have the following rights in relation to your personal data. To exercise any of these rights, please contact bha88 support in writing at [email protected] with the subject line 'Data Rights Request' and provide your registered mobile number and a brief description of your request. bha88 will respond to all valid data rights requests within 30 days:
- Right of access — you may request a copy of the personal data bha88 holds about you, together with information about how it is used and with whom it is shared.
- Right to rectification — if any personal data we hold about you is inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to request that it be corrected or updated.
- Right to erasure — in certain circumstances, you may request that bha88 delete the personal data it holds about you. This right is subject to overriding legal retention obligations — for example, bha88 cannot delete transaction records that it is legally required to retain.
- Right to restrict processing — you may request that bha88 restrict how it processes your personal data in certain circumstances, for example while a rectification request is being investigated.
- Right to withdraw consent — where processing is based on your consent (such as marketing communications), you may withdraw your consent at any time. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before the withdrawal.
bha88 will not charge a fee for responding to a data rights request unless the request is manifestly unfounded or excessive, in which case a reasonable administrative fee may apply or we may decline to respond. We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling a data rights request to ensure the security of your personal data.
10. Children's Privacy
The bha88 platform is strictly intended for adults aged 21 and above. bha88 does not knowingly collect personal data from any person under the age of 21. If bha88 becomes aware that personal data has been collected from a person under 21, that data will be deleted promptly and the associated account will be closed. If you believe that a person under 21 has registered an account on bha88, please contact our support team immediately at [email protected] so that we can investigate and take appropriate action.
11. Changes to This Privacy Policy
bha88 may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in how we process personal data, changes in applicable law, or improvements to the platform. When we make material changes to this Privacy Policy, we will update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page. Where the changes are significant, we will endeavour to notify registered players via SMS to their registered mobile number.
Your continued use of the bha88 platform following publication of an updated Privacy Policy constitutes your acceptance of the revised policy. If you do not agree with the changes, you should stop using the platform and may request account closure by contacting bha88 support. We recommend reviewing this Privacy Policy periodically to stay informed about how bha88 protects your data.
