Privacy Policy — ki88 Data Protection Commitment
Ki88 is committed to protecting the privacy and personal data of every player on our platform. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, who we share it with, and the rights you hold over your own data.
How ki88 Handles Your Data
The following cards summarise the core principles that guide ki88's approach to data privacy. Each principle is explained in full in the relevant sections of this policy below.
Data Collected Only as Needed
Ki88 collects only the personal data that is strictly necessary to operate the platform, process transactions, verify identity, and comply with applicable legal obligations. We do not collect data speculatively.
SSL Encryption Throughout
All data transmitted between your device and ki88 servers is protected using industry-standard TLS/SSL encryption. Your financial details, personal information, and account credentials travel securely at all times.
No Sale of Personal Data
Ki88 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to any third party for their independent marketing purposes. Data is shared only with service providers who are contractually bound to the same privacy standards.
Your Rights Are Respected
You have the right to access, correct, export, restrict, and request deletion of your personal data held by ki88. Requests are processed within 30 days. Contact [email protected] to exercise any of these rights.
Transparent Cookie Use
Ki88 uses cookies and similar tracking technologies only for platform functionality, security, and analytics. You can manage your cookie preferences at any time through your browser settings without affecting core account functions.
Age Verification Enforced
Ki88 actively verifies player age during registration and KYC review. We do not knowingly collect or process personal data belonging to individuals under 18 years of age and take immediate action when underage access is detected.
Information We Collect
Ki88 collects personal data through several channels: directly from you during registration and account use, automatically through platform interaction, and from trusted third-party verification services. The following table outlines the categories of data we collect and the reason for each.
| Data Category | Specific Data Points | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Identity Data | Full legal name, date of birth, gender, nationality, National ID number or passport number | Account registration, age verification, KYC compliance, fraud prevention |
| Contact Data | Email address, mobile phone number, residential address (city, district, Bangladesh) | Account communications, security alerts, withdrawal notifications, support correspondence |
| Financial Data | bKash/Nagad/Rocket mobile wallet number, bank account details (for transfers), transaction history, deposit and withdrawal amounts in BDT | Payment processing, anti-money laundering monitoring, chargeback dispute resolution |
| Technical Data | IP address, device type, operating system, browser version, session timestamps, login history | Platform security, fraud detection, multi-account monitoring, geographic access control |
| Gaming Activity Data | Game history, bet amounts and outcomes, session duration, bonus usage, responsible gaming limit settings | Account management, dispute resolution, responsible gaming monitoring, bonus settlement |
| Communications Data | Live chat transcripts, email correspondence with support, feedback and complaint records | Customer support, quality assurance, dispute resolution, training purposes |
| Marketing Preferences | Opt-in or opt-out status for promotional emails, SMS notifications, and personalised offers | Delivering relevant promotions only to players who have consented to receive them |
Ki88 does not collect sensitive personal data such as racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious beliefs, biometric data (other than for identity document verification purposes), or health data, unless you voluntarily disclose health-related information in the context of a responsible gaming self-exclusion request — in which case that information is used solely to protect your welfare and is handled with the strictest confidentiality.
How We Use Your Data
Ki88 uses the personal data it collects for clearly defined purposes. We do not use your data in ways that are incompatible with the purpose for which it was originally collected.
Account Management and Service Delivery: The primary use of your personal data is to create and maintain your ki88 player account, authenticate your identity at login, process your deposits and withdrawals via bKash, Nagad, Rocket, and Bangladeshi bank transfers, credit winnings to your BDT wallet, and respond to your support enquiries. These uses are all necessary for the performance of the contract between you and ki88.
Identity and Age Verification: Ki88 uses identity data, including uploaded copies of your National ID card or passport, to confirm that you are who you claim to be and that you are at least 18 years of age. This verification is a legal obligation and is conducted by ki88's internal compliance team or by an approved third-party KYC service provider. Verification documents are stored securely and used only for compliance purposes.
Fraud Prevention and Security: Ki88 analyses technical data, financial transaction patterns, and gaming activity data to identify and prevent fraud, money laundering, bonus abuse, multi-accounting, and other prohibited conduct as defined in our Terms and Conditions. This processing is based on ki88's legitimate interest in maintaining a safe and fair platform for all players.
Responsible Gaming Monitoring: Ki88 uses your gaming activity data to monitor for signs of problem gambling behaviour, including escalating deposit frequency, extended uninterrupted play sessions, and repeated reversal of self-imposed limits. Where such patterns are identified, ki88 may proactively contact you with responsible gaming information or apply temporary account restrictions in accordance with our duty of care obligations.
Marketing and Promotions: With your explicit consent, ki88 may send you promotional communications about new games, seasonal offers (including BPL cashback, Eid reload bonuses, and Pohela Boishakh specials), and platform updates via email or SMS. You may withdraw consent at any time by following the unsubscribe link in any marketing email or by contacting [email protected]. Withdrawing marketing consent does not affect the delivery of essential transactional communications such as deposit confirmations, withdrawal notifications, or security alerts.
Platform Improvement and Analytics: Ki88 uses aggregated, anonymised usage data to understand how players interact with the platform, which game categories are most popular, how the deposit and withdrawal flows perform, and where technical improvements are needed. This analytics data does not identify individual players and is used solely to enhance the overall platform experience.
Legal Compliance: Ki88 may be required to process and disclose personal data to comply with applicable laws, court orders, regulatory investigations, or requests from financial intelligence authorities in connection with anti-money laundering or fraud investigations. Such disclosures are made only to the extent required by law and are documented in ki88's compliance records.
Data Sharing and Third Parties
Ki88 does not sell your personal data. We share it only with carefully selected third-party service providers who are essential to platform operations, and only to the extent necessary for each provider's specific function.
The following categories of third parties may receive your personal data in connection with ki88's operations:
- Payment Processors: bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay, Visa, Mastercard, and selected Bangladeshi banking partners receive the minimum financial and identity data necessary to process your deposits and withdrawals. These providers operate under their own privacy policies and are regulated financial institutions.
- KYC and Identity Verification Providers: Approved third-party KYC service providers may process copies of your identity documents on ki88's behalf for age and identity verification purposes. These providers are bound by strict data processing agreements and may not use your documents for any purpose other than verification.
- Game Software Providers: Licensed game studios including Evolution Gaming, Pragmatic Play, NetEnt, Microgaming, Spribe, and Ezugi may receive a session token and anonymised player identifier to deliver their game content within the ki88 platform. These providers do not receive your full identity or financial data.
- IT Infrastructure and Hosting Providers: Ki88's platform is hosted on secure server infrastructure managed by contracted providers. These providers have access to server-level data but are contractually prohibited from accessing or using player personal data independently.
- Anti-Fraud and Security Providers: Ki88 may use specialised third-party fraud detection services that analyse technical data (IP addresses, device fingerprints, login patterns) to identify suspicious activity. Data shared with these providers is technical in nature and does not include financial account details.
- Regulatory and Legal Authorities: Ki88 may be required to disclose player data to financial intelligence units, law enforcement agencies, or other regulatory bodies in response to legally binding requests. Such disclosures are made only after legal review and are documented in ki88's compliance records.
Ki88 does not share your personal data with advertising networks, data brokers, social media platforms, or any third party for the purpose of targeted advertising outside the ki88 platform. All data sharing is limited to what is functionally necessary and legally justified.
International Data Transfers: Some of ki88's service providers are located outside Bangladesh. Where personal data is transferred internationally, ki88 ensures that appropriate safeguards are in place, including contractual data protection clauses that provide a standard of protection equivalent to what you would expect under applicable data protection principles.
Data Security and Retention
Ki88 takes the security of your personal data seriously and maintains a range of technical and organisational measures to protect it from unauthorised access, loss, or disclosure.
Retention Periods: Ki88 retains personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected, or as required by applicable legal obligations. The following general retention guidelines apply:
- Active Account Data: Retained for the duration of your account's active status plus a period of five years following permanent account closure to satisfy anti-money laundering record-keeping obligations.
- Transaction and Financial Records: Retained for a minimum of five years from the date of each transaction in accordance with financial record-keeping requirements applicable to online gambling platforms.
- KYC and Identity Verification Documents: Retained for five years from the date of verification completion or account closure, whichever is later.
- Customer Support Correspondence: Retained for three years from the date of the last communication, after which records are anonymised or deleted.
- Marketing Consent Records: Retained for as long as you hold an active ki88 account or until you withdraw consent, whichever comes first. Consent withdrawal records are retained for three years as evidence of compliance.
Data Breach Response: In the event of a personal data breach that poses a risk to your rights and freedoms, ki88 will notify affected players without undue delay via email to the address registered on your account. Notification will include a description of the nature of the breach, the data affected, the likely consequences, and the steps ki88 has taken or is taking to address the situation.
Your Account Password: Ki88 stores account passwords using one-way cryptographic hashing. Ki88 staff cannot view your password. If you forget your password, use the password reset function on the login page. Never share your password with anyone, including ki88 support staff, who will never ask for it.
Your Privacy Rights
As a ki88 player, you hold meaningful rights over the personal data we hold about you. The following rights are available to you and can be exercised by contacting ki88 support at [email protected].
Right of Access
Request a copy of all personal data ki88 holds about you. We will provide this in a structured, readable format within 30 days.
Right to Rectification
Request correction of any inaccurate or incomplete personal data in your ki88 account. Some corrections may require identity re-verification.
Right to Erasure
Request deletion of your personal data where it is no longer necessary for the purpose it was collected, subject to legal retention obligations.
Right to Restriction
Request that ki88 temporarily restricts processing of your data while a rectification or objection request is under review.
Right to Portability
Request your personal data in a machine-readable format (JSON or CSV) so that you can transfer it to another service if you choose to do so.
Right to Object
Object to processing of your personal data for marketing purposes at any time. You may also object to processing based on legitimate interest in specific circumstances.
To exercise any of the above rights, submit a written request to [email protected] with the subject line "Privacy Rights Request" and include your registered account username and a brief description of your request. Ki88 will acknowledge receipt within two business days and fulfil or formally respond to the request within 30 calendar days. Where a request is complex or involves a large volume of data, ki88 may extend this period by up to a further 30 days, in which case you will be notified of the extension and the reason for it.
Ki88 will not charge a fee for handling privacy rights requests unless a request is manifestly unfounded or excessive, in which case a reasonable administrative fee may apply or the request may be refused. If a request is refused, ki88 will provide a written explanation of the reason and inform you of your right to seek further recourse.
Minors and Age Verification
Ki88 does not knowingly collect, process, or retain personal data belonging to individuals under the age of 18. Preventing underage access to gambling services is a core commitment of the ki88 platform.
All players are required to confirm that they are at least 18 years of age during the registration process. Ki88 treats this declaration as a binding representation. Where ki88 has reasonable grounds to suspect that an account belongs to or is being used by a person under 18 — whether identified through date of birth discrepancy, identity document review, or third-party verification — the account will be immediately suspended pending full verification.
If it is confirmed that an account belongs to a person under 18, ki88 will:
- Permanently close the account with immediate effect.
- Return any net deposited funds (total deposits minus any bonus funds used) to the payment source used for deposit, after deducting any winnings derived from play, which are not payable to underage players.
- Delete all personal data associated with the underage account from ki88's systems within 30 days, except where retention is required for legal record-keeping purposes relating to the underage access incident.
- Report the incident to relevant compliance authorities where required by applicable law.
Parents and guardians who believe that a minor has created a ki88 account or accessed the platform are encouraged to contact ki88 support immediately at [email protected]. Ki88 will treat such reports with priority and respond within one business day.
Ki88 also recommends that parents and guardians in Bangladesh use parental control software to restrict access to online gambling platforms on devices shared with or accessible to minors. Ki88 takes its social responsibility obligations in this area seriously and supports all reasonable efforts to keep gambling services away from underage individuals.
Policy Updates and Contact
Ki88 reviews this Privacy Policy periodically to ensure it remains accurate and reflects any changes to our data practices, platform features, or applicable legal requirements.
