bkfb Privacy Policy — How We Handle Your Personal Data
bkfb is committed to protecting the privacy of every player. This policy explains what personal data we collect, why we collect it, how it is stored securely, and what rights you have over your information.
Introduction
bkfb ("bkfb", "we", "us", "our") operates the online casino and sports betting platform accessible at bkfb.org. In providing this service to players in Bangladesh, we collect and process certain personal data. This Privacy Policy explains how that data is collected, the purposes for which it is used, the circumstances under which it may be shared with third parties, the security measures we apply to protect it, and the rights you hold as a data subject.
This Privacy Policy applies to all users of the bkfb platform, including visitors who browse the site without registering an account and registered players who actively use bkfb's betting and gaming products. By using the bkfb platform, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy and consent to the data practices described herein. This policy should be read alongside the bkfb Terms and Conditions.
Information We Collect
bkfb collects personal data through several mechanisms during your use of the platform. The categories of data we collect are described below. We do not collect sensitive personal data beyond what is strictly necessary for identity verification and responsible gaming compliance.
How We Use Your Information
bkfb uses the personal data we collect for the following purposes. We process your data only where we have a legitimate basis to do so, as described in the Legal Basis section below. We do not use your personal data for purposes that are incompatible with the original purposes for which it was collected without first obtaining your consent.
- Account creation and ongoing account management, including verification of eligibility to use the platform and maintenance of your account records.
- Processing of deposits and withdrawals via bKash, Nagad, and Rocket, including verification of payment source and execution of requested transactions.
- Customer support, including responding to account queries, resolving disputes, processing complaints, and providing information about bkfb products and policies.
- Fraud detection and prevention, including monitoring of account and transaction activity for indicators of fraudulent behaviour, money laundering, or other prohibited conduct as defined in the bkfb Terms and Conditions.
- Responsible gaming compliance, including monitoring of player activity for indicators of problem gambling and administration of self-exclusion, deposit limit, and time-out requests submitted by players.
- Platform improvement and analytics, including analysis of aggregated and anonymised usage data to identify and fix technical issues, improve the user interface, and optimise the overall player experience on the bkfb platform.
Legal Basis for Processing
bkfb processes your personal data on the following legal bases, depending on the nature and purpose of the processing activity:
- Contract performance — processing necessary to enter into and perform the contract between you and bkfb, including account creation, payment processing, and service delivery.
- Legal obligation — processing required to comply with applicable legal obligations, including anti-money laundering requirements, identity verification requirements, and regulatory reporting.
- Legitimate interests — processing necessary for bkfb's legitimate interests, including fraud prevention, platform security, responsible gaming monitoring, and service improvement, where such interests are not overridden by your privacy rights.
- Consent — where we rely on your consent to process your personal data, for example for optional marketing communications, we will obtain your explicit consent and you may withdraw it at any time without affecting the lawfulness of prior processing.
Sharing of Your Information
bkfb does not sell, rent, or otherwise trade your personal data to third parties for commercial purposes. We share your personal data only in the limited circumstances described below, and only to the extent necessary for the specific purpose in question.
Where we engage third-party service providers to assist in the operation of the bkfb platform, those providers are bound by strict data processing agreements that prohibit them from using your data for any purpose other than performing the specific service for which they have been engaged.
Cookies and Tracking Technologies
bkfb uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to operate the platform, remember your session and preferences, detect fraud, and analyse platform usage. Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your browser. They do not contain executable code and cannot access other data stored on your device.
The types of cookies bkfb uses include: (a) essential cookies required for the platform to function correctly, including session authentication and security tokens; (b) functional cookies that remember your preferences and settings; and (c) analytics cookies that collect anonymised data about how the platform is used, helping us identify areas for improvement. We do not use advertising or behavioural targeting cookies.
Data Security
bkfb implements appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, destruction, or disclosure. All data transmitted between your device and bkfb's servers is protected by SSL encryption. Account passwords are stored in hashed form and are not accessible to bkfb staff. Access to personal data within bkfb is restricted on a need-to-know basis, with access logs maintained and regularly reviewed.
While bkfb applies industry-standard security practices, no online platform can guarantee absolute security against all possible threats. In the event of a data breach that is likely to result in a risk to your rights and freedoms, bkfb will notify affected users in accordance with applicable legal requirements and will take immediate steps to contain and remediate the breach.
Data Retention
bkfb retains your personal data for as long as your account remains active and for a reasonable period thereafter to allow for the resolution of any outstanding account matters, pending transactions, or disputes. Following account closure, bkfb retains certain account and transaction records for a minimum of five years to comply with anti-money laundering obligations, tax record-keeping requirements, and applicable regulatory requirements.
Where you request deletion of your personal data (see Your Rights section below), bkfb will delete or anonymise data that is no longer required for any of the purposes described above, subject to any retention obligations that override your deletion request under applicable law. In such cases, we will inform you of the specific retention obligation that prevents full deletion and the expected retention period.
Your Privacy Rights

This right is subject to bkfb's legal retention obligations, including anti-money laundering record-keeping requirements.
- Right to RestrictionYou have the right to request that bkfb restricts the processing of your personal data in certain circumstances, for example where you contest the accuracy of the data or where you have objected to processing based on legitimate interests and a determination is pending.

Third-Party Services and Links
The bkfb platform integrates third-party services including game content from licensed studios, payment processing via Bangladesh mobile wallet providers, and analytics tools. Each of these third parties operates under its own privacy policy in respect of any data it collects directly. bkfb is not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party service providers beyond ensuring that they are bound by appropriate data processing agreements when acting on bkfb's behalf.
bkfb does not operate social media accounts, affiliate pages, or third-party promotional channels. If you encounter a website, social media profile, or application that claims to be affiliated with bkfb but is not accessible through bkfb.org, treat it with caution — bkfb is not responsible for any data practices on such sites and cannot verify their legitimacy.
Children's Privacy
The bkfb platform is strictly for adults aged 21 years and above. bkfb does not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under the age of 21. If bkfb becomes aware that personal data has been collected from a person under the age of 21, the account will be immediately closed, all associated data will be deleted or anonymised to the extent permitted by law, and any deposits will be returned to the original payment method used. If you believe that a minor has registered an account on bkfb, please notify us immediately at [email protected].

bkfb 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 effective date shown at the top of this page and, where the changes are significant, we will take reasonable steps to notify active account holders directly, for example via a notification on the platform or a message to your registered mobile number.
