3. Data Sharing and Disclosure

bd17 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to unaffiliated third parties. We share information only in the limited circumstances described below.

Service Providers

We work with trusted third-party vendors who assist us in operating the platform, processing payments, verifying identities, and providing customer support. These vendors are contractually bound to handle your data securely and only for the purposes we specify.

Legal Requirements

We may disclose your personal information if required to do so by applicable law, court order, or governmental authority. In such cases, we will disclose only the minimum information necessary to comply with the legal obligation.

Business Transfers

In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or part of our business assets, user data may be transferred to the acquiring entity. We will notify you of any such transfer and any resulting changes to this Privacy Policy via a notice on our platform.

4. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

bd17 uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your browsing experience, maintain session state, and gather analytics data. We use the following types of cookies:

• Essential Cookies: These are strictly necessary for the website to function correctly — they manage login sessions, remember your preferences, and keep your account secure.
• Analytics Cookies: We use aggregated, anonymised analytics data to understand how users navigate our platform so we can improve the experience for all players.
• Preference Cookies: These cookies remember your language settings, display preferences, and other personalisation choices so you do not have to reset them on each visit.

You may configure your mobile browser to refuse cookies or alert you when cookies are being sent. Please note that disabling essential cookies may affect the functionality of the bd17 platform and your ability to access certain features.

5. Data Retention

bd17 retains your personal data for as long as your account remains active or as needed to provide you with our services. We also retain data to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, enforce our agreements, and prevent fraud and abuse.

If you close your account, we will delete or anonymise your personal data within a reasonable period, except where we are required to retain it for legal, regulatory, or fraud-prevention purposes. Financial transaction records may be retained for longer periods as required by applicable regulations.

6. Security of Your Data

bd17 implements robust technical and organisational measures to protect your personal information against unauthorised access, accidental loss, destruction, or disclosure. Our security practices include SSL/TLS encryption for all data in transit, secure server infrastructure, access controls limiting data to authorised personnel only, and regular security audits.

While we take every reasonable precaution to safeguard your information, no method of electronic transmission or storage is completely infallible. We cannot guarantee absolute security, but we are committed to addressing any data breach promptly and notifying affected users in accordance with applicable regulations.

7. Your Rights

As a user of the bd17 platform, you have the following rights with respect to your personal data. To exercise any of these rights, please contact our support team at [email protected].

• Right of Access: You have the right to request a copy of the personal data we hold about you, along with information about how it is being processed.
• Right of Rectification: If any personal data we hold about you is inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to request that we correct or update it without undue delay.
• Right of Erasure: In certain circumstances, you may request the deletion of your personal data. This right is subject to legal obligations that may require us to retain certain records.
• Right to Object: You have the right to object to the processing of your personal data for direct marketing purposes at any time. You may opt out of marketing communications via the unsubscribe link in any promotional email.
• Right to Data Portability: Where technically feasible, you may request a copy of your data in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format.

We will respond to all verified data rights requests within a reasonable timeframe. We may need to verify your identity before processing such a request to ensure your data is not disclosed to an unauthorised party.

8. Payment Information

bd17 supports several popular payment methods used in Bangladesh, including bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay, Dutch-Bangla Bank, and major debit/credit cards. When you make a deposit or request a withdrawal, we collect transaction reference data to reconcile payments and maintain accurate records.

We do not store your full card numbers, mobile banking PINs, or mobile wallet passwords on our servers. Full payment credentials are processed directly through secure, certified payment gateways. bd17 is not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party payment providers, and we encourage users to review those providers' own privacy policies.

9. Age Restriction and Minor Protection

bd17 strictly prohibits access to its platform by individuals under the age of 21. We are committed to protecting the wellbeing of young people and take the issue of underage gambling seriously. During the registration process, we require users to confirm they are 21 years or older, and our KYC verification procedures are designed to detect and prevent access by minors.

If you believe a minor has gained access to a bd17 account, please contact us immediately at [email protected]. We will investigate the matter, close the account if necessary, and take steps to prevent recurrence. Parents and guardians are encouraged to use parental control software to restrict access to gambling websites.

10. Changes to This Privacy Policy

bd17 reserves the right to update or modify this Privacy Policy at any time. When we make material changes, we will post the revised policy on this page with an updated effective date. Where appropriate, we may also notify you directly via the email address or mobile number associated with your account.

Your continued use of the bd17 platform after any changes to this Privacy Policy constitutes your acceptance of the revised terms. If you do not agree with the updated policy, you should discontinue use of the platform and may request account closure by contacting our support team.
