8y888 Privacy Policy — Your Data, Protected

1. Information We Collect

8y888 collects personal data from you in several ways — directly when you register and use the platform, automatically when you browse and play, and in some cases from third parties such as payment processors and KYC verification services. The categories of data we collect include:

• Identity data: full name, date of birth, nationality, and government-issued identification document details (such as National ID card or passport), collected during account registration and KYC verification.
• Contact data: email address and mobile phone number, collected during registration and used for account communications, security alerts, and support correspondence.
• Financial data: deposit and withdrawal transaction records, payment method details (such as bKash wallet number, Nagad account, or bank account number), and account balance history, collected to facilitate transactions and comply with financial regulations.
• Technical and usage data: IP address, device type, browser type, operating system, pages visited, session duration, game history, and betting activity, collected automatically via cookies and server logs when you use the platform.
• Communications data: records of your interactions with 8y888 customer support via live chat, email, or any other support channel, including the content of your messages and our responses.

2. How We Use Your Data

8y888 uses the personal data we collect strictly for the purposes set out in the following table. We do not use your data for any purpose not listed here without first obtaining your consent.

3. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

8y888 uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to operate and improve the platform, remember your preferences, and analyse usage patterns. Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit 8y888. The types of cookies we use and their purposes are as follows:

• Strictly necessary cookies: These cookies are required for the platform to function correctly. They enable core features such as account login sessions, security token validation, and payment page navigation. These cookies cannot be disabled without impairing platform functionality.
• Functional cookies: These cookies allow the platform to remember your settings and preferences, such as your preferred language and session display options, to provide a more personalised experience on return visits.
• Analytics cookies: These cookies collect aggregated, anonymised data about how players use the platform — which pages are visited most often, how long sessions last, and which games are most popular. This data helps us improve the platform for all users.
• You may manage your cookie preferences through your browser settings. Please note that disabling certain cookies may limit your ability to use some features of the 8y888 platform. Strictly necessary cookies cannot be disabled through browser settings as they are essential to platform operation.
• 8y888 does not use advertising cookies or share cookie data with advertising networks for the purpose of delivering targeted advertisements to you on third-party websites.

4. How We Share Your Data

8y888 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data. We share personal data with third parties only where necessary to deliver the 8y888 service or where required by applicable law. Third parties with whom we may share data include:

• Payment service providers: bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay, and banking partners receive the financial data necessary to process your deposits and withdrawals. These providers are contractually bound to use your data only for payment processing purposes.
• KYC and identity verification providers: specialist third-party services that assist with identity document verification receive only the specific identity data required to complete the verification process.
• Game providers: Pragmatic Play, Evolution Gaming, Spribe, NetEnt, Microgaming, Ezugi, and PG Soft may receive technical session data required to deliver and operate their games within the 8y888 platform. Game providers do not receive your identity or financial data.
• Regulatory and law enforcement bodies: 8y888 may disclose personal data where required to do so by applicable law, court order, or lawful request from a competent authority. We will notify you of such disclosure where permitted by law.

5. Data Security

8y888 implements industry-standard technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, destruction, or disclosure. Our primary security measures include:

• SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) encryption on all data transmitted between your device and the 8y888 platform, ensuring that your personal and financial data cannot be intercepted in transit.
• Access controls: personal data is accessible only to authorised 8y888 personnel who require it to perform their specific job functions. Access is logged, audited, and reviewed regularly.
• Secure data storage: all personal data is stored on servers protected by firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and physical security controls. Data at rest is encrypted using industry-standard encryption protocols.

6. Data Retention

8y888 retains your personal data only for as long as is necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by applicable law. Our retention periods are guided by the following principles:

• Active account data: as long as your 8y888 account remains open and active, we retain all associated personal, financial, and usage data necessary to operate your account, process transactions, and provide support.
• Closed account data: following account closure, we retain identity and financial transaction data for a minimum period required by applicable financial regulations and anti-money-laundering obligations. After this retention period expires, data is securely deleted.
• Communications records: customer support correspondence is retained for a period sufficient to resolve any related disputes or complaints. Records related to a specific dispute may be held until the dispute is fully resolved.
• Anonymised analytics data: aggregated and fully anonymised usage data that cannot be linked back to any individual player may be retained indefinitely for platform improvement purposes.

7. Your Rights

As a user of the 8y888 platform, you have the following rights with respect to your personal data. To exercise any of these rights, please contact 8y888 customer support via live chat or by emailing [email protected].

• Right of access: you have the right to request a copy of the personal data 8y888 holds about you. We will respond to verified access requests within a reasonable timeframe.
• Right to rectification: if any personal data we hold about you is inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to request that we correct or complete it. Please update your account details directly in your account settings where possible.
• Right to erasure: you may request that 8y888 delete your personal data where it is no longer necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, subject to any legal retention obligations that require us to keep the data for a minimum period.
• Right to restriction of processing: you may request that 8y888 restrict the processing of your personal data in certain circumstances — for example, while we are verifying the accuracy of data you have disputed, or while a deletion request is being assessed.

8. Children's Privacy

The 8y888 platform is strictly for adults aged 21 and above. We do not knowingly collect personal data from persons under the age of 21. If we discover or are notified that personal data of a person under the age of 21 has been collected, we will take immediate steps to delete that data and close the associated account. If you believe a person under 21 has registered on 8y888, please notify us immediately via customer support.

• 8y888 does not direct any marketing, promotional content, or platform features at persons under the age of 21.
• If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has accessed 8y888, please contact our support team immediately at [email protected]. We will investigate and act promptly.
• Age verification is conducted during the KYC process for all accounts. Accounts where the holder is found to be under 21 will be immediately suspended, all balances frozen, and any winnings forfeited.
• 8y888 uses technical measures, including IP geolocation and device fingerprinting, to identify and block access attempts from jurisdictions where online gambling is prohibited or from users who show indicators of being under 21.

9. Third-Party Links and Services

The 8y888 platform may contain links to third-party websites or services, including game provider platforms and payment gateway interfaces. These third-party services are governed by their own privacy policies, and 8y888 accepts no responsibility for their data practices. We encourage you to read the privacy policy of any third-party service before providing personal data to it.

• When you access a game provided by a third-party game studio within the 8y888 platform, that studio's game client may collect certain technical data (such as session identifiers) directly. This data collection is governed by the game provider's own privacy practices, not by this Policy.
• When you make a deposit or withdrawal using bKash, Nagad, Rocket, or Upay, you will interact directly with that payment service provider's interface. Your use of these payment services is subject to the respective provider's terms and privacy policy.
• 8y888 is not responsible for the privacy or security practices of any third-party service, including payment providers and game studios, and provides no warranty regarding the data protection standards of these parties.

10. Changes to This Policy

8y888 reserves the right to update or amend this Privacy Policy at any time. When we make material changes to this Policy, we will update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page and, where reasonably practicable, notify registered users via email or a prominent in-platform notice. Your continued use of the 8y888 platform after any such update constitutes your acceptance of the revised Policy. We encourage you to revisit this page periodically so that you are always aware of the most current version of our Privacy Policy.
