Your privacy matters to bat88.

We are committed to transparency and to handling your data with care.
Privacy at a Glance
How bat88 Protects Your Data
The six principles below summarise our approach to data protection. They are not a substitute for the full policy sections that follow — please read all sections carefully to understand your rights and our obligations.
bat88 collects only the personal data that is strictly necessary for account registration, identity verification, transaction processing, and regulatory compliance. We do not collect data for its own sake.
All data transmitted between your device and the bat88 platform is protected by industry-standard TLS/SSL encryption. Payment data is additionally protected through tokenisation and secure payment gateway integrations.
bat88 processes your personal data only on lawful grounds — primarily your consent, contractual necessity, and legal obligation. You may withdraw consent for non-essential processing at any time by contacting our support team.
bat88 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to third-party marketers. Data is shared only with service partners who are contractually bound to use it solely for delivering bat88 platform services.
We retain your personal data only for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, including satisfying legal and regulatory retention obligations. Account data is securely deleted upon request where permitted by law.
bat88 applies anti-money-laundering (AML) and know-your-customer (KYC) procedures in compliance with applicable regulations. These obligations require us to collect and verify certain identity documents — your cooperation helps keep the platform safe for all players.
1 Data We Collect
bat88 collects personal data through several channels: directly from you when you register an account or contact our support team; automatically through your use of the platform; and, in limited circumstances, from third-party verification and payment service providers. The categories of personal data we collect include the following:
| Data Category | Specific Data Points | Collection Method |
|---|---|---|
| Identity Data | Full legal name, date of birth, gender, nationality, government-issued ID number | Provided by you at registration and during KYC verification |

bat88 does not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under the age of 18. 18+ If we become aware that personal data has been collected from an underage user, we will delete that data promptly and close the associated account.
Providing accurate and complete personal data is a condition of maintaining an active bat88 account. Providing false, incomplete, or misleading information during registration or verification may result in account suspension and forfeiture of balances, as outlined in the bat88 Terms & Conditions.
2 How We Use Your Data

3 Cookies & Tracking Technologies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your web browser when you visit the bat88 platform.

4 Data Sharing & Third Parties
bat88 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to third-party advertisers or data brokers under any circumstances. We share personal data with third parties only where it is necessary to deliver platform services, comply with legal obligations, or protect the security of the platform. The categories of third parties with whom we may share data are:
- Payment service providers: bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay, and card processing partners receive the minimum data necessary to process your deposit and withdrawal transactions. These providers operate their own privacy policies and are independently responsible for the data they hold.
- Identity verification providers: Third-party KYC and AML service providers may receive copies of your identity documents and personal details in order to perform identity verification checks on bat88's behalf. These providers are contractually bound to process your data only for verification purposes.
- Game providers: Technology partners including Pragmatic Play, Evolution Gaming, NetEnt, Microgaming, Spribe, and Ezugi may receive anonymised session and gameplay data to support game delivery, fairness auditing, and jackpot verification. These providers do not receive your full identity profile.
- IT and hosting providers: Cloud hosting, content delivery, and platform infrastructure providers may process data as part of operating the bat88 platform. All such providers are subject to data processing agreements that restrict their use of your data.
- Fraud prevention and security services: bat88 may share transactional and behavioural data with fraud detection partners to identify and prevent money laundering, bonus abuse, and other prohibited activities.
- Regulatory and law enforcement authorities: bat88 will disclose personal data to relevant authorities where required to do so by applicable law, court order, or regulatory directive. bat88 will notify affected users of such disclosures where it is legally permitted to do so.
All third-party service providers engaged by bat88 are required to implement appropriate technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data, and are prohibited from using it for any purpose other than the specific service they provide to bat88.
5 Data Retention & Storage
bat88 retains personal data for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including satisfying applicable legal, regulatory, and accounting obligations. The table below outlines our standard retention periods by data category:
| Data Category | Standard Retention Period | Basis for Retention |
|---|---|---|

bat88's platform data is hosted on secure servers. Data may be stored and processed in locations outside Bangladesh where our technology partners operate data centres. In all such cases, bat88 ensures that appropriate contractual safeguards are in place to protect the security and confidentiality of your data during any international transfer.
When personal data reaches the end of its retention period, it is securely deleted or anonymised so that it can no longer be associated with any individual. Where deletion is not technically feasible within an immediate timeframe, the data will be isolated from active processing until deletion is completed.

We may request identity verification before acting on a privacy rights request to protect your data from unauthorised access.
7 Data Security Measures
bat88 implements a comprehensive set of technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, destruction, or disclosure. Our security framework includes the following controls:
- TLS/SSL encryption: All data in transit between your device and the bat88 platform is encrypted using Transport Layer Security (TLS 1.2 or higher). You can verify this by checking for the padlock icon in your browser address bar when visiting bat88.im.
- Data encryption at rest: Sensitive data stored in bat88's systems — including identity documents, financial records, and account credentials — is encrypted at rest using AES-256 encryption.
- Access controls: Access to personal data within bat88's internal systems is restricted on a strict need-to-know basis. All staff who access personal data are bound by confidentiality obligations and receive data protection training.
- Two-factor authentication: bat88 offers optional 2FA for all player accounts and applies mandatory 2FA for all internal staff accounts with access to production systems.
- Penetration testing and vulnerability management: bat88's platform undergoes periodic security assessments by independent security professionals. Identified vulnerabilities are prioritised and remediated in accordance with their severity level.
- Incident response: bat88 maintains a documented data breach response procedure. In the event of a security incident affecting your personal data, bat88 will notify you and relevant authorities within the timeframes required by applicable law.
- Payment security: bat88 does not store full card numbers or bKash/Nagad PIN credentials. Payment processing is handled by PCI DSS-compliant payment gateway partners who apply their own rigorous security standards.
While bat88 takes all reasonable steps to protect your personal data, no online platform can guarantee absolute security against all possible threats. You also have a role to play in keeping your account secure — please refer to the Account Security section of the bat88 Terms & Conditions for best-practice guidance.
