2. Information We Collect

📋Personal Data You Provide Directly

When you register an account, make a deposit, submit a withdrawal, contact support, or interact with any feature of ab88, you may provide us with the following categories of personal data:

  • Identity data: full legal name, date of birth, nationality, and a copy of government-issued identification documents submitted during KYC verification.
  • Contact data: mobile phone number, email address, and residential address (required for KYC verification).
  • Financial data: payment method details including bKash account number, Nagad account number, Rocket wallet number, Upay reference, and card details (Visa/Mastercard) where applicable. ab88 does not store full card numbers — payment card data is tokenised and held by the payment processor.
  • Account credentials: username and hashed password. Plain-text passwords are never stored.
  • Communications data: the content of any messages you send to ab88 customer support via email or live chat, including any attachments or documents submitted.

⚙️Data We Collect Automatically

When you access and use the ab88 platform, our servers and analytics systems automatically record certain technical data about your device and session:

  • Device and technical data: IP address, device type, operating system version, browser type and version, screen resolution, and mobile network operator.
  • Usage data: pages visited, features used, time spent on each page, navigation paths through the platform, game sessions initiated, bets placed, and outcomes recorded.
  • Transaction logs: a complete record of all deposits, withdrawals, bonus credits, wagers, and winnings associated with your account, retained for financial compliance purposes.
  • Cookie and tracking data: session identifiers, preference cookies, and analytics cookies as described in the Cookies section of this Policy.

3. How We Use Your Information

🎯Purposes of Data Processing

ab88 processes your personal data only for specific, legitimate purposes. We do not process your data in ways that are incompatible with the purposes for which it was originally collected. The primary purposes for which we use your data are:

  • Account management: to create, maintain, verify, and manage your ab88 player account, including processing deposits, withdrawals, and bonus allocations.
  • Identity verification and KYC compliance: to verify your age, identity, and payment method ownership in accordance with responsible gaming and anti-money laundering obligations.
  • Platform operation and service delivery: to operate the ab88 platform, process your bets and transactions, deliver game results, and provide the services you have requested.
  • Customer support: to respond to your enquiries, resolve disputes, process complaints, and communicate important account-related information.
  • Fraud prevention and security: to detect, investigate, and prevent fraud, money laundering, and other prohibited activities, and to protect the integrity of the platform and the funds of legitimate players.
  • Platform improvement and analytics: to analyse usage patterns, diagnose technical issues, improve platform performance, and develop new features — using aggregated or anonymised data wherever possible.
Marketing note: ab88 may send you promotional communications about bonuses, seasonal offers, and new platform features by email or SMS. You may opt out of marketing communications at any time by contacting [email protected]. Opting out of marketing does not affect transactional or account-related communications, which are sent regardless of marketing preferences.

ab88 processes your personal data on the basis of one or more of the following lawful grounds, depending on the specific processing activity and the nature of the data involved:

📜Grounds for Processing

  • Contractual necessity: processing required to fulfil our obligations to you under our Terms and Conditions — including account creation, transaction processing, KYC verification, and customer support.
  • Legal obligation: processing required to comply with applicable laws, including anti-money laundering obligations, responsible gaming requirements, and responses to lawful requests from competent authorities.
  • Legitimate interests: processing necessary for the prevention of fraud, ensuring platform security, improving our services, and analysing usage patterns — provided these interests are not overridden by your rights and interests.
  • Consent: where you have given explicit consent to a specific processing activity — such as receiving marketing communications. Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of prior processing.

5. Sharing Your Personal Data

ab88 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to any third party for commercial purposes. We do not share your personal data with advertisers, data brokers, or any third party whose primary business is the sale or monetisation of personal data. Personal data is shared externally only in the limited circumstances described below.

🤝Permitted Disclosure Scenarios

Your personal data may be disclosed to the following categories of recipients in the circumstances stated:

  • Payment processors and financial service providers: bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay, Visa/Mastercard processing networks, and other payment infrastructure providers — solely for the purpose of processing your deposits and withdrawals.
  • Game providers and software vendors: third-party casino game providers such as Evolution Gaming, Pragmatic Play, Ezugi, Microgaming, and Spribe — to the extent necessary to operate game sessions associated with your account.
  • Identity verification and KYC service providers: third-party identity verification agencies engaged to assist with document verification and age confirmation as part of our KYC procedures.
  • Law enforcement and regulatory authorities: where we are required by applicable law, court order, or lawful governmental request to disclose personal data to competent authorities. ab88 will disclose only the minimum data necessary to fulfil such obligations and will notify affected players where permitted by law.
Data processor agreements: All third parties with whom ab88 shares personal data for processing purposes are required to handle that data in accordance with appropriate data protection standards. ab88 does not permit its data processors to use your personal data for their own commercial purposes.

6. Payment Data and Financial Information

ab88 takes the security of financial data with particular seriousness given the payment methods used by our Bangladesh-based player base, including mobile wallet services such as bKash, Nagad, and Rocket. When you make a deposit or withdrawal, the financial transaction is routed through the payment provider's own secure infrastructure. ab88 receives confirmation of the transaction outcome but does not receive or store your full mobile banking PIN, full card number, or online banking password at any point.

Transaction records — including the date, amount, payment method type, and outcome of each deposit and withdrawal — are retained as part of your account history for financial compliance and dispute resolution purposes. These records are maintained for the duration set out in our data retention schedule described in Section 8 below. Access to financial transaction records is restricted to authorised ab88 personnel and, where legally required, to regulatory or law enforcement authorities.

7. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

🍪Types of Cookies We Use

ab88 uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to operate the platform, remember your preferences, and analyse usage. The categories of cookies in use are:

  • Strictly necessary cookies: essential for the platform to function. These include session authentication tokens, security cookies, and load-balancing identifiers. These cookies cannot be disabled without preventing the platform from working correctly.
  • Functional cookies: remember your language preference, currency display settings, and other personalisation choices to improve your experience on return visits.
  • Analytics cookies: collect anonymised information about how visitors use ab88 — including which pages are visited most frequently, average session duration, and navigation flow — to help us improve the platform.
  • Security and fraud-detection cookies: identify suspicious patterns of behaviour, flag potentially fraudulent sessions, and help protect your account from unauthorised access attempts.

You may manage cookie preferences through your browser's settings. Please note that disabling non-essential cookies may affect the functionality of certain platform features. Strictly necessary cookies are exempt from cookie consent requirements as they are essential for the platform's operation. ab88 does not use third-party advertising cookies or cross-site tracking pixels for retargeting purposes.

8. Data Retention

ab88 retains your personal data only for as long as is necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by applicable legal and regulatory obligations. The following retention periods apply as a general guide: active account data is retained for the duration of your account relationship with ab88; transaction records and KYC verification documents are retained for a minimum of five years following account closure or the last transaction, whichever is later, to comply with anti-money laundering record-keeping obligations; customer support communications are retained for two years from the date of the interaction; analytics and usage data in anonymised or aggregated form may be retained indefinitely for platform improvement purposes.

When personal data is no longer required and no legal obligation compels its continued retention, ab88 will securely delete or anonymise the data using industry-standard methods. You may request earlier deletion of your data (subject to legal obligations) by contacting [email protected], as described in the Your Rights section below.

9. Your Privacy Rights

As a registered player on ab88, you have the following rights in relation to the personal data we hold about you. To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at [email protected] with your account mobile number and a description of your request. We will respond within a reasonable timeframe, typically within 30 days.

✅Rights You Can Exercise

  • Right of access: request a copy of all personal data ab88 holds about you, together with information about how it is being used and with whom it has been shared.
  • Right to rectification: request correction of any inaccurate or incomplete personal data we hold about you. Where data has been shared with third parties, we will notify them of the correction where feasible.
  • Right to erasure: request deletion of your personal data in circumstances where it is no longer necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, where you have withdrawn consent, or where we have no legitimate ground to continue holding it — subject always to our legal retention obligations.
  • Right to restrict processing: request that we restrict processing of your personal data in certain circumstances — for example, while a rectification request is being assessed, or where you have objected to processing and we are assessing whether our legitimate interests override your objection.
  • Right to data portability: request that certain personal data you have provided to ab88 be provided to you in a structured, machine-readable format, where technically feasible.
  • Right to object: object to processing of your personal data where it is based on ab88's legitimate interests, including profiling. ab88 will cease that processing unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds that override your interests, rights, and freedoms.
To submit a request: Email [email protected] with the subject line "Privacy Rights Request", your registered mobile number, and the specific right you wish to exercise. We will verify your identity before processing the request and respond within 30 days. Complex requests may require additional time, in which case we will notify you of the extended timeline.

10. Data Security Measures

ab88 implements a range of technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, destruction, or disclosure. These measures include: SSL/TLS encryption for all data transmitted between your device and the ab88 platform; encrypted storage of sensitive data at rest including hashed password credentials and KYC documents; access controls limiting internal access to personal data on a strict need-to-know basis, with access logs maintained for audit purposes; regular security assessments and vulnerability testing of the platform infrastructure; and staff training on data protection obligations and secure data handling practices.

While ab88 takes all reasonable steps to protect your personal data, no data transmission over the internet or mobile network can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. In the event of a data security incident that is likely to result in a high risk to your rights, ab88 will notify affected players without undue delay and take immediate remedial action to contain the incident and prevent recurrence.

11. Children's Privacy

ab88 is strictly an adults-only platform. Access to and use of ab88 is prohibited for individuals under the age of 21. ab88 does not knowingly collect, process, or retain personal data from any person under the age of 21. If we become aware that personal data has been collected from a person under 21, we will take immediate steps to delete that data from our systems and close the associated account. If you believe that a person under 21 has registered an account or submitted personal data to ab88, please notify us immediately at [email protected] so that we can take appropriate action.

12. Changes to This Privacy Policy

ab88 reserves the right to update or amend this Privacy Policy at any time. When we make changes, the revised Policy will be published on this page with an updated "Last updated" date. Where changes are material — meaning they significantly affect how we collect or use your personal data, or affect your privacy rights — we will endeavour to provide advance notice via the platform or by email to your registered contact address.

Continued use of ab88 following the publication of a revised Privacy Policy constitutes your acceptance of the changes. If you do not agree with the revised Policy, you should stop using ab88 and may request closure of your account by contacting [email protected]. We recommend bookmarking this page and reviewing the Policy whenever you receive a notification of an update.
