698bd Privacy Policy

1. Who We Are

1.1 698bd is an internationally operated online casino and sports betting platform built specifically to serve players in the Bangladeshi market. The Platform offers cricket betting, live casino games, slots, colour games, and a range of other gaming products, all transacted in Bangladeshi Taka (৳).

1.2 For the purposes of this Privacy Policy, 698bd is the data controller responsible for the personal data collected through the Platform. All data-related enquiries, requests, and complaints should be directed to the 698bd data protection contact at [email protected].

1.3 Players based in Bangladesh interact with the Platform in English. This Privacy Policy is published in English and constitutes the binding version. No translation of this document creates additional or alternative obligations for 698bd.

2. Personal Data We Collect

2.1 698bd collects personal data in the following categories:

2.1 Registration and Identity Data

When you create a 698bd account, we collect information including your full legal name, date of birth, email address, mobile phone number registered in Bangladesh, and the username you select for your 698bd Login. This data is required to create and maintain your account.

2.2 Identity Verification Data

To comply with our verification obligations and to prevent underage gambling, 698bd may request documentary proof of identity and age. Acceptable documents include a National Identity Card (NID), passport, or birth certificate issued by a Bangladeshi authority. We may also request proof of payment method ownership, such as a screenshot of a bKash, Nagad, or Rocket wallet registered in your name.

2.3 Financial and Transaction Data

We collect records of all deposits and withdrawals made through your 698bd account, including the payment method used (e.g., bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Dutch-Bangla Bank), transaction amounts in BDT, timestamps, and transaction reference numbers. We do not store full payment credentials such as bank account passwords or mobile wallet PINs.

2.4 Gaming and Betting Activity Data

We record all bets placed, games played, results, session durations, and wagering activity on the Platform. This data is used to manage your account balance, resolve disputes, detect irregular activity, and generate the responsible gaming reports used to monitor at-risk behaviour.

2.5 Technical and Device Data

When you access the Platform, we automatically collect certain technical data including your IP address, browser type and version, operating system, device type, screen resolution, and the referring URL from which you navigated to 698bd. This information is used for security monitoring, fraud prevention, and Platform optimisation.

2.6 Communications Data

Records of your communications with the 698bd support team — including live chat transcripts, emails, and any supporting documents you submit — are retained to manage your enquiry, maintain service quality, and provide an audit trail for compliance purposes.

The table below summarises the key data categories and their primary purposes:

3. How We Use Your Personal Data

3.1 698bd uses the personal data it collects for the following purposes:

• Account management: Creating, maintaining, and securing your 698bd account, including processing your 698bd Login credentials and enforcing the one-account-per-player rule.
• Payment processing: Facilitating deposits and withdrawals in BDT via bKash, Nagad, Rocket, and other supported payment channels, and reconciling your account balance accurately.
• Verification and compliance: Confirming that you meet the 21+ age requirement and satisfying any applicable know-your-customer (KYC) obligations required by the Platform's operating jurisdiction.
• Security and fraud prevention: Monitoring account activity for signs of unauthorised access, duplicate accounts, bonus abuse, money laundering, and other prohibited conduct described in the 698bd Terms & Conditions.
• Responsible gaming: Using your gaming activity data to identify patterns that may indicate problem gambling behaviour and, where appropriate, proactively offering responsible gaming tools or restrictions.
• Customer support: Responding to your enquiries, resolving disputes, processing complaints, and providing 24/7 live chat assistance.
• Platform improvement: Analysing aggregated, anonymised usage data to improve the 698bd product offering, fix technical issues, and optimise the user experience for Bangladeshi players.
• Marketing communications: Where you have opted in to receive promotional communications, sending you information about 698bd offers, bonuses, and new products. See Section 13 for your opt-out rights.

4. Legal Basis for Processing

4.1 698bd processes your personal data on one or more of the following legal bases depending on the processing activity:

• Contractual necessity: Processing that is required to deliver the services you have contracted for when creating a 698bd account — including payment processing, account management, and dispute resolution.
• Legal obligation: Processing required to comply with applicable laws, including age verification, anti-money laundering checks, and the retention of transaction records for the legally mandated period.
• Legitimate interests: Processing conducted for the purposes of fraud prevention, security monitoring, and Platform improvement, where those interests are not overridden by your data protection rights.
• Consent: Processing for marketing communications, where your prior consent has been obtained. Consent may be withdrawn at any time without affecting the lawfulness of any processing conducted prior to withdrawal.

5. Sharing Your Personal Data

5.1 698bd does not sell your personal data. We share personal data with third parties only in the following limited circumstances:

• Payment service providers: bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Dutch-Bangla Bank, City Bank, Visa, and Mastercard receive the transaction data necessary to process your deposits and withdrawals. These providers operate under their own privacy policies and are contractually required to handle your data securely.
• Identity verification providers: Where 698bd uses a third-party service to verify the authenticity of identification documents or confirm age, the minimum necessary data is shared with that provider under a strict data processing agreement.
• Technology and infrastructure providers: Cloud hosting, database management, and security monitoring services that underpin the 698bd Platform may process personal data on our behalf. All such providers are bound by data processing agreements that restrict their use of your data to the provision of services to 698bd.
• Legal and regulatory authorities: Where required by applicable law, court order, or at the request of a competent regulatory authority, 698bd may be required to disclose personal data. We will notify you of such disclosure requests where legally permitted to do so.
• Business transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or part of 698bd's business, personal data may be transferred to the acquiring entity, subject to that entity maintaining equivalent privacy protections.

5.2 698bd will never share your personal data with third-party marketing organisations, data brokers, or advertising networks for their own independent marketing purposes.

6. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

6.1 The 698bd Platform uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to deliver a functional and personalised experience. The main categories of cookies used are:

• Strictly necessary cookies: These are essential for the Platform to function. They manage your session after a 698bd Login, maintain your account state, and ensure the security of your session. These cookies cannot be disabled without preventing access to core Platform features.
• Functional cookies: These remember your preferences — such as your preferred language settings and notification choices — so that you do not need to reconfigure them on every visit.
• Analytics cookies: Aggregated, anonymised data about how players navigate the Platform helps us identify usability issues and improve the overall experience. This data does not identify you personally.
• Security cookies: Used to detect and prevent fraudulent login attempts, bot activity, and other security threats to your 698bd account.

6.2 You may manage cookie preferences through your browser settings. Please note that disabling strictly necessary cookies will impair your ability to use the Platform, including the 698bd Login function.

7. Data Security

7.1 698bd implements the following technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data:

• All data transmitted between your browser or device and 698bd servers is encrypted using Transport Layer Security (TLS) with a minimum of TLS 1.2.
• Stored personal data is protected by encryption at rest using industry-standard algorithms.
• Access to personal data within 698bd is restricted to staff and systems that require it for a defined operational purpose. Access logs are maintained and reviewed regularly.
• Passwords are stored using one-way cryptographic hashing. Plain-text passwords are never stored or transmitted by 698bd.
• Our systems are subject to regular security assessments and monitoring to detect and respond to potential vulnerabilities.

7.2 While 698bd takes all reasonable steps to protect your personal data, no system is entirely immune to risk. In the event of a data breach that poses a material risk to your rights or interests, 698bd will notify affected players and relevant authorities in accordance with applicable legal requirements.

7.3 You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your 698bd Login credentials. Never share your username or password with any third party. If you believe your account has been compromised, contact 698bd support immediately.

8. Data Retention

8.1 698bd retains your personal data for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by applicable law. The following retention periods apply as a general guide:

• Active account data: Retained for the duration of your account relationship with 698bd.
• Transaction records: Retained for a minimum of five years from the date of each transaction to satisfy financial record-keeping obligations.
• Identity verification documents: Retained for a minimum of five years following account closure or the completion of the transaction to which the verification relates.
• Support communications: Retained for a minimum of three years from the date of the most recent communication in a thread, unless a longer period is required for an ongoing dispute.
• Gaming activity logs: Retained for a minimum of three years for active accounts. Anonymised aggregated data may be retained indefinitely for analytical purposes.

8.2 When the applicable retention period expires and there is no further legal basis for continued retention, personal data is securely deleted or anonymised in a manner that prevents recovery.

9. Your Data Rights

9.1 As a player on the 698bd Platform, you have the following rights with respect to your personal data. To exercise any of these rights, contact 698bd support at [email protected] with your registered account username and a description of your request.

9.2 698bd will respond to all data rights requests within 30 days of receipt. Where a request is complex or involves a large volume of data, we may extend this period by a further 60 days and will notify you accordingly.

10. Children and Underage Players

10.1 The 698bd Platform is strictly for adults aged 21 years and above. We do not knowingly collect or process personal data relating to individuals under the age of 21. If we become aware that a registered account belongs to a person under 21, that account will be suspended immediately, any balance will be held pending further review, and the relevant personal data will be handled in accordance with applicable law.

10.2 If you believe that a minor has registered on the 698bd Platform, please contact our support team immediately at [email protected]. We take all reports of underage access seriously and will investigate promptly.

11. International Data Transfers

11.1 698bd is an internationally operated platform. Your personal data may be processed on servers or by service providers located outside Bangladesh. Where such transfers occur, 698bd takes appropriate measures to ensure that your data receives a level of protection equivalent to that described in this Privacy Policy.

11.2 These measures may include contractual safeguards with data processors, the use of service providers who maintain internationally recognised security certifications, and technical controls that limit the scope of data accessible to international infrastructure providers.

12. Third-Party Links

12.1 The 698bd Platform does not include links to third-party websites for general browsing purposes. Any references to payment providers such as bKash, Nagad, or Rocket are made in the context of facilitating transactions within the Platform. 698bd is not responsible for the privacy practices of those providers, and we encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party service you use in connection with your 698bd account.

13. Marketing Communications

13.1 698bd may send you promotional communications about bonuses, new games, cricket betting markets, and other Platform features where you have provided your consent to receive such communications at the time of registration or subsequently through your account settings.

13.2 You may withdraw your consent to receive marketing communications at any time by:

• Updating your communication preferences in your 698bd account settings after logging in;
• Clicking the unsubscribe link included in any promotional email sent by 698bd; or
• Contacting 698bd support directly at [email protected] and requesting removal from marketing lists.

13.3 Withdrawing your consent to marketing communications will not affect your ability to use the Platform or receive transactional communications (such as deposit confirmations, withdrawal notifications, or security alerts), which are sent on the basis of contractual necessity rather than consent.

14. Changes to This Privacy Policy

14.1 698bd reserves the right to update this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in our data practices, applicable law, or the services we offer. The effective date at the top of this document will be updated whenever material changes are made.

14.2 Where changes are material — meaning they significantly affect the way we collect, use, or share your personal data — we will notify you via your registered email address at least 7 days before the changes take effect. Non-material clarifications or corrections may be published without advance notice.

14.3 Your continued use of the 698bd Platform following the effective date of any updated Privacy Policy constitutes your acknowledgement of and agreement to the revised terms. If you do not agree to the updated Privacy Policy, you should cease using the Platform and contact support to arrange account closure.
