This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, store, share, and protect information about you when you visit bdt177.ws, register an account, make deposits or withdrawals, place wagers, or otherwise interact with our services.

This Policy applies to all players accessing bdt177 from Bangladesh and any other jurisdiction from which our platform is reachable. It should be read together with our Terms & Conditions and our Responsible Gaming Policy, both of which form part of the agreement between you and bdt177.

bdt177 collects personal data through several channels: directly from you during registration, through your ongoing use of the Platform, automatically through cookies and tracking technologies, and from third-party payment processors and identity verification services. Below is a comprehensive breakdown of the categories of data we collect.

• Email address
• Residential address including city and division (e.g., Dhaka, Chittagong, Sylhet)

When you deposit or withdraw funds, bdt177 receives transaction data from your payment provider. This includes:

bdt177 never stores full card numbers, CVV codes, or mobile banking PINs. Card details are handled exclusively by PCI-DSS compliant payment processors.

2.4 Gaming and Wag ering Activity Data

bdt177 records a complete history of your gaming and wagering activity on the Platform. This includes game sessions, bet amounts, outcomes, bonus usage, and responsible gaming tool activations such as deposit limits and self-exclusion requests. This data is used to deliver your gaming history, resolve disputes, detect suspicious patterns, and fulfil regulatory record-keeping obligations.

2.5 Technical and Device Data

When you access bdt177 from any device, we automatically collect certain technical data, including:

• IP address and approximate geolocation (city/country level)
• Device type, operating system, and browser version
• Unique device identifiers
• Referring URL and pages visited within the Platform
• Session duration and click/interaction patterns
• Error logs and crash reports

Technical data is collected automatically through server logs and our analytics infrastructure. It helps us optimise platform performance, detect fraudulent access, and improve the user experience for players across Dhaka, Chittagong, Sylhet, and other regions of Bangladesh.

2.6 Communications Data

When you contact bdt177 via live chat, email, or any other support channel, we retain a record of the communication including your contact details, the content of the message, and the support team's response. This record is used for quality assurance, dispute resolution, and staff training purposes.

3. How We Use Your Data

bdt177 processes your personal data only where there is a clear and lawful basis for doing so. The primary purposes for which we use your data are set out below.

3.1 Account Management and Service Delivery

We use your registration and account data to create and maintain your bdt177 account, verify your identity, process deposits and withdrawals, deliver your gaming history, and provide customer support. Without this processing, we cannot deliver the core services of the Platform to you.

3.2 Legal and Regulatory Compliance

bdt177 is required to process certain personal data to comply with anti-money laundering (AML) obligations, age verification requirements, and other applicable regulations. This includes conducting KYC checks, monitoring transactions for suspicious activity, and maintaining financial records. These processing activities are mandatory and cannot be opted out of without forfeiting access to the Platform.

3.3 Fraud Prevention and Security

We analyse device data, IP addresses, transaction patterns, and account behaviour to detect and prevent fraud, bonus abuse, unauthorised account access, and other security threats. Where suspicious activity is detected, we may temporarily suspend account access pending investigation. This processing is in the legitimate interest of bdt177 and the wider player community.

3.4 Responsible Gaming

bdt177 uses your gaming activity data to monitor for signs of problematic gambling behaviour and to enforce self-imposed limits, cooling-off periods, and self-exclusion decisions that you have activated. This processing is central to our responsible gaming commitment and is carried out in your direct interest.

3.5 Platform Improvement and Analytics

Aggregated and anonymised technical and behavioural data is used to analyse Platform performance, identify bugs, test new features, and improve the overall experience. Where data is fully anonymised, it no longer constitutes personal data and falls outside the scope of this Privacy Policy.

3.6 Marketing and Promotional Communications

Where you have given explicit consent during registration or at a later date, bdt177 may send you promotional emails, SMS messages, or in-platform notifications about new games, bonuses, tournaments, and seasonal promotions. You may withdraw marketing consent at any time by contacting [email protected] or updating your account preferences. Withdrawal of marketing consent does not affect your ability to use the Platform.

4. Data Sharing and Third Parties

bdt177 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to third parties for their own marketing purposes. We share data only in the circumstances described below, and only to the minimum extent necessary for the stated purpose.

4.1 Payment Processors

To process your deposits and withdrawals, bdt177 shares transaction-related data with your chosen payment provider (bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay, Visa, or Mastercard). These providers operate under their own privacy policies and security standards. bdt177 does not retain full card numbers or mobile banking credentials.

4.2 Identity Verification Providers

For KYC purposes, bdt177 may share identity document images and biometric data (e.g., selfie photographs) with accredited third-party identity verification services. These providers are contractually bound to use your data solely for the purpose of verifying your identity on behalf of bdt177.

4.3 Game Content Providers

Game providers such as Pragmatic Play, Evolution Gaming, Spribe, NetEnt, Microgaming, and Ezugi receive session data necessary to deliver their games to your device (e.g., your account token and stake information). They do not receive your full personal profile and are contractually prohibited from using session data for purposes other than game delivery.

4.4 Legal and Regulatory Disclosures

bdt177 may disclose your personal data to law enforcement agencies, regulatory bodies, or courts of competent jurisdiction where required by law, court order, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of bdt177, its players, or the general public. We will notify you of any such disclosure to the extent permitted by law.

4.5 Business Transfers

In the event that bdt177 undergoes a merger, acquisition, or sale of substantially all of its assets, your personal data may be transferred to the acquiring entity as part of that transaction. We will provide advance notice of any such transfer and the acquiring entity will be required to honour the commitments made in this Privacy Policy.

• Role-based access controls ensuring that only authorised personnel can access personal data, and only to the extent necessary for their specific function.
• Regular internal security audits and penetration testing by qualified security professionals.
• Multi-factor authentication requirements for all internal staff accessing data systems.
• Dedicated server infrastructure with DDoS protection and automated intrusion detection systems.
• Formal incident response procedures governing detection, containment, notification, and remediation of data security incidents.

In the event of a data security incident that poses a risk to your rights and freedoms, bdt177 will notify affected players without undue delay and will take all reasonable steps to mitigate the impact of the incident.

9. Children and Minors

bdt177 is strictly an adults-only platform. We do not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under the age of 21. If bdt177 discovers that personal data has been collected from an individual under 21, the account will be immediately closed, all data associated with the account will be deleted in accordance with our retention schedule, and any funds held will be returned to the payment source.

If you believe that a minor may have registered an account on bdt177, please contact [email protected] immediately with relevant details so that we can investigate and take appropriate action.

The "Last Updated" date at the top of this Policy reflects the most recent revision. We encourage you to review this Policy periodically to stay informed about how bdt177 protects your information. Continued use of the Platform following the effective date of any changes constitutes your acceptance of the revised Policy.
