88a88 Privacy Policy
This document explains what data 88a88 collects from players in Bangladesh, why we collect it, and how we keep it safe.
Who Runs 88a88
88a88 (accessible at 88a88.ws) is an online gaming and sports betting platform serving players in Bangladesh. When you open an account, place a bet, or contact our support team, 88a88 acts as the data controller for the personal information you provide. Any questions about this policy should be directed to [email protected].
What Data We Collect
We collect only what is necessary to run your account, process payments, and meet our legal obligations. Here is a plain summary:
Registration details
When you sign up at 88a88, you provide your full name, date of birth, email address, and mobile number. We use this to verify your age (players must be 18 or older) and to contact you about your account.
Identity verification (KYC)
Before your first withdrawal, 88a88 requires one of the following documents: National ID Card (NID), Passport, or Driving Licence. We store a secure copy until your identity is confirmed and beyond for the period required by law. KYC review normally takes up to 2 hours.
Payment information
We record transaction references for deposits and withdrawals made via bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay, or Bank Transfer. We do not store full mobile banking PINs or bank account passwords at any point.
Device and usage data
When you visit 88a88.ws or use the 88a88 App, we automatically collect your IP address, device type, operating system version, browser type, and pages visited. This helps us detect fraud and improve the platform.
Communications
If you contact us by email or live chat, we keep a record of that conversation. This lets our support team follow up accurately and helps us resolve recurring issues.
| Data type | Collected at | Required? |
|---|---|---|
| Name, date of birth, mobile | Registration | Yes |
| NID / Passport / Driving Licence | First withdrawal | Yes |
| Transaction references | Every deposit & withdrawal | Yes |
| IP address & device info | Every visit | Automatic |
| Chat and email transcripts | When you contact support | Only if you contact us |
Why We Collect It
88a88 uses your data for the following specific purposes and no others:
- To create and maintain your player account.
- To process deposits (minimum ৳200) and withdrawals (minimum ৳1,300) quickly and correctly.
- To verify your age before account approval, as required for all gambling services.
- To run identity checks before your first withdrawal and to comply with anti-money-laundering rules.
- To send you account alerts — deposit confirmations, withdrawal status, and security notifications.
- To detect and prevent fraud, bonus abuse, and multiple-account violations.
- To improve site performance, fix bugs in the 88a88 App, and test new games from providers like JILI, Evolution, and PG Soft.
- To send promotional messages about bonuses or new games, but only if you have opted in.
We do not use your data for any purpose unrelated to running your 88a88 account.
Who Sees Your Data
88a88 does not sell your personal data. We share it only where strictly necessary:
Payment processors
Transaction references are passed to bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay, or the relevant bank to complete your payment. These providers have their own privacy policies and data-handling obligations.
Game providers
When you launch a game from JILI, Evolution, PG Soft, FA Chai, CQ9, JDB, or Habanero, a session token is shared with that provider so the game can load. No financial details are passed to game studios.
Fraud and compliance tools
We use third-party services to screen for fraud and to verify identity documents. These tools process only the minimum data needed for the specific check.
Legal requests
If a government authority or court issues a lawful order requiring us to disclose data, we will comply. We will tell you if we are permitted to do so.
How Long We Keep Records
Different types of data are kept for different lengths of time, depending on legal requirements and our operational needs:
- Account data — kept for the life of your account plus 5 years after closure, to meet financial record-keeping obligations.
- KYC documents — kept for 5 years after the last transaction on your account.
- Transaction records — kept for 5 years from the date of each transaction.
- Device and log data — kept for 12 months, then deleted or anonymised.
- Support transcripts — kept for 2 years after the conversation closes.
When a retention period expires, we delete or anonymise the data so it can no longer be linked to you.
What Rights You Have
You have several rights over the data 88a88 holds about you. To exercise any of them, email [email protected] from the address linked to your account.
- Access — ask for a copy of the personal data we hold on you.
- Correction — ask us to fix inaccurate or incomplete data.
- Deletion — ask us to delete your data where we have no legal obligation to keep it.
- Restriction — ask us to pause processing while a dispute is resolved.
- Objection — object to processing based on legitimate interests (for example, direct marketing).
- Portability — request your data in a machine-readable format.
We respond to all data requests within 30 days. Where a request is complex, we may take up to 60 days and will notify you of the extension.
Cookies and Tracking Technologies
88a88.ws uses cookies and similar technologies to keep you logged in, remember your language preference, and analyse site traffic. Here is what each type does:
Strictly necessary cookies
These keep your session active and prevent repeated login prompts. Without them, the site cannot function. You cannot opt out of these while using 88a88.
Analytics cookies
These count page visits and measure how players move through the site. The data is aggregated — we cannot identify individual players from it. You can disable these in your browser settings.
Marketing cookies
If you arrived at 88a88 through an affiliate link, a cookie records that referral so the affiliate is credited. No browsing history outside 88a88.ws is collected. You can block these by using your browser's "do not track" setting.
Keeping Your Account Secure
88a88 applies the following measures to protect player data:
- All connections to 88a88.ws and the 88a88 App use TLS encryption (HTTPS).
- Passwords are hashed using a modern one-way algorithm — 88a88 staff cannot read your password.
- Financial data transmitted to payment processors is encrypted end-to-end.
- Access to player records is restricted to staff who need it for their job, and all access is logged.
- We run regular security reviews and patch known vulnerabilities promptly.
You can help by using a strong, unique password for your 88a88 account and by not sharing your login details with anyone. If you suspect unauthorised access, contact support at [email protected] immediately.
Players Under 18
88a88 is strictly for players aged 18 and over. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 18. If we discover that a player account belongs to a minor, we will close it immediately and delete all associated personal data. If you believe a minor has registered, please report it to [email protected].
Updates to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy when our practices change, when we add new payment methods, or when legal requirements shift. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page always reflects the most recent version. If a change affects your rights significantly, we will notify you by email or by an in-app message before the change takes effect. Continuing to use 88a88 after the effective date means you accept the updated terms.
