33bat Privacy Policy
Your privacy matters at 33bat. This Privacy Policy explains precisely what personal information we collect from players across Bangladesh, how that information is stored and used, and what rights you hold over your own data. We are committed to handling your information with the highest standards of transparency and security.
Our Core Privacy Commitments
At 33bat, we believe every player in Bangladesh deserves to know exactly how their personal information is handled. The six commitments below summarise the principles that guide every data-handling decision we make — from the moment you register an account through to the day you choose to close it.
End-to-End Encryption
Every data transmission between your device and 33bat servers is protected with 256-bit SSL encryption. Your login credentials, payment details and personal records are never sent over unencrypted channels.
No Data Selling
33bat does not sell, rent or lease your personal information to unaffiliated third parties for marketing purposes. Your data is used only to operate and improve the services you signed up for.
Your Data Rights
You have the right to access, correct, port and request deletion of your personal data at any time. Submit a request to [email protected] and we will respond within 30 days.
Transparent Cookie Use
We use strictly necessary session cookies to keep you logged in and analytics cookies to understand platform usage. No third-party advertising cookies or cross-site tracking scripts are deployed on 33bat.
Defined Retention Periods
We retain your data only as long as it is needed for the purpose it was collected or as required by applicable law. Account data is held for a maximum of five years following account closure unless a longer period is legally mandated.
Breach Notification
In the unlikely event of a personal data breach that poses a risk to your rights and freedoms, 33bat will notify affected account holders by email within 72 hours of becoming aware of the incident.
Data We Collect
Categories of Personal Information Collected by 33bat
1.1 Registration data. When you create a 33bat account, we collect your full legal name, date of birth, gender, residential address, email address and a Bangladeshi mobile number capable of receiving SMS verification codes. This information is required to establish your identity and comply with applicable know-your-customer (KYC) obligations.
1.2 Identity verification documents. To complete the KYC process required before your first withdrawal, we collect scanned or photographed copies of government-issued identity documents such as your National Identity Card (NID), passport or driving licence. Where required, we may also collect proof of residential address in the form of a utility bill, bank statement or government correspondence dated within 90 days.
1.3 Financial data. We collect payment method information including your bKash account number, Nagad account number, Rocket (Dutch-Bangla Bank) number, Upay number or bank account details where used for deposits and withdrawals. We also retain records of all transaction amounts, dates, reference numbers and statuses for regulatory and audit purposes. We do not store full card numbers; card transactions are tokenised by our payment processing partners.
1.4 Usage and behavioural data. We collect information about how you interact with the 33bat platform including pages visited, games played, bet amounts and frequencies, session durations, search queries entered on the site, and features accessed. This data is used for platform improvement, personalisation and responsible gaming monitoring.
1.5 Technical and device data. When you access 33bat, our servers automatically log your IP address, browser type and version, operating system, device type (desktop, mobile, tablet), screen resolution, referring URL and time zone. This information is used for security monitoring, fraud prevention and performance optimisation.
1.6 Communications data. If you contact our support team by email or live chat, we retain the content of those communications together with any attachments, your account reference and the date and time of contact. This allows us to handle follow-up queries efficiently and maintain a consistent support experience.
1.7 Voluntary survey and preference data. From time to time 33bat may invite you to participate in optional satisfaction surveys or to specify game preferences for personalisation purposes. Participation is entirely voluntary; declining does not affect your account status or access to any platform feature.

How We Use Your Data
Purposes for Which 33bat Processes Personal Information
2.1 Account creation and operation. We use your registration data to create and maintain your 33bat account, authenticate your identity at login, send account-related notifications (deposit confirmations, withdrawal updates, security alerts), and administer the contractual relationship between you and 33bat.
2.2 Payment processing. Financial data is used to process deposits and withdrawals via bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay and bank transfer, to reconcile transaction records against our internal ledger, and to investigate any disputed transactions or payment failures you report to our support team.
2.3 Identity and age verification. Document data collected during KYC verification is used exclusively to confirm that you are who you say you are, that you are 21 years of age or older, and that the funds in your account originate from a legitimate source consistent with anti-money laundering requirements. Verified document images are stored in encrypted form and accessed only by authorised compliance personnel.
2.4 Responsible gaming monitoring. We analyse your usage and behavioural data — including betting frequency, session length, deposit velocity and withdrawal patterns — to identify indicators of problem gambling at an early stage. Where such indicators are detected, our responsible gaming team may reach out to offer support tools such as deposit limits, session reminders or self-exclusion options.
2.5 Fraud prevention and security. Technical and device data, together with transactional records, are analysed by our security systems to detect and prevent unauthorised account access, multiple-account fraud, bonus abuse, money laundering and other prohibited conduct described in our Terms & Conditions.
2.6 Platform improvement and personalisation. Aggregated and anonymised usage data informs decisions about new game additions, user interface improvements and promotional scheduling. Where personalisation features are active, we may use your game history to suggest content we believe you will find relevant — you can opt out of personalisation via your account settings.
2.7 Marketing communications. If you have opted in to marketing communications during registration or through your account preferences, we may send you promotional emails and SMS messages about bonuses, upcoming BPL or IPL cricket betting markets, new slot releases and seasonal promotions tied to events such as Eid or Pohela Boishakh. You may withdraw your marketing consent at any time by contacting [email protected] or by following the unsubscribe link in any marketing email.
2.8 Legal and regulatory compliance. We are required by applicable law to retain certain categories of data for minimum statutory periods and to make that data available to competent authorities upon receipt of a lawful request. In such cases, your data may be disclosed to regulatory bodies, law enforcement agencies or courts without prior notice to you where disclosure is required or permitted by law.
Data Retention
How Long We Keep Your Personal Information
5.1 33bat retains personal data for no longer than is necessary to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. The following retention periods apply to the main categories of data we hold:
- Active account data (identity, contact, payment methods): retained for the full duration of the account plus five years following account closure, in compliance with anti-money laundering record-keeping requirements.
- Transaction records (deposit and withdrawal history, bet records): retained for seven years from the date of each transaction in line with standard financial record-keeping obligations.
- KYC identity documents: retained for five years from the date of account closure or from the date of the last transaction, whichever is later.
- Support communications: retained for three years from the date of the last message in the relevant conversation thread.
- Marketing consent records: retained for the duration of active consent plus two years following withdrawal of consent, to demonstrate compliance with applicable marketing regulations.
- Analytics data: retained in aggregated, anonymised form indefinitely. Individual-level session data is anonymised after 24 months.
- Security and access logs (IP addresses, login attempts): retained for 12 months from the date of recording, after which they are automatically purged.
5.2 When a retention period expires, data is permanently deleted from active systems and purged from backup storage within 90 days of the scheduled deletion date. Data that is the subject of an ongoing investigation, legal proceeding or regulatory inquiry is held until the matter is fully resolved, regardless of the standard retention period.
Security Measures
How 33bat Protects Your Personal Data
6.1 33bat maintains a comprehensive information security programme designed to protect personal data against accidental loss, unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration and destruction. The programme encompasses the following technical and organisational measures:
- Transport security: All data transmitted between your browser or app and 33bat infrastructure is encrypted using TLS 1.2 or higher (256-bit SSL). Strict Transport Security (HSTS) headers prevent downgrade attacks.
- Data-at-rest encryption: Databases holding personal data, identity documents and financial records are encrypted at rest using AES-256. Encryption keys are managed separately from the data they protect.
- Access controls: Access to systems holding personal data is restricted on a need-to-know basis. All internal access is authenticated via multi-factor authentication and logged for audit review.
- Password security: Player passwords are stored as salted hashes using a modern one-way hashing algorithm. 33bat staff cannot retrieve or view your plain-text password.
- Two-step login: SMS-based two-step verification is available to all account holders and is strongly recommended. Accounts that exhibit unusual login patterns may have two-step verification enforced automatically.
- Penetration testing: 33bat engages independent security professionals to conduct regular penetration tests of the platform. Critical findings are remediated within 72 hours of discovery.
- Incident response: A documented data breach response procedure is in place. In the event of a breach affecting your personal data, you will be notified by email within 72 hours of 33bat becoming aware of the incident.
6.2 While 33bat takes every reasonable precaution to protect your data, no online service can guarantee absolute security. You are responsible for keeping your account credentials confidential and for ensuring that your own device is protected with up-to-date security software. If you suspect unauthorised access to your account, contact [email protected] immediately.
Fair play certified. All 33bat game outcomes are produced by independently audited random number generators. Game integrity and platform security are reviewed on a regular cycle by third-party auditors.
Your Data Rights
Rights You Hold Over Your Personal Information
7.1 Right of access. You have the right to request a copy of all personal data that 33bat holds about you. We will provide this in a structured, machine-readable format within 30 days of receiving a verified request. To submit an access request, email [email protected] with the subject line "Data Access Request — [Your Username]".
7.2 Right to rectification. If any of the personal information we hold about you is inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to request that it be corrected without undue delay. Most contact and preference data can be updated directly through your account settings dashboard.
7.3 Right to erasure. You may request deletion of your personal data where: (a) the data is no longer necessary for the purpose for which it was collected; (b) you have withdrawn consent and there is no other lawful basis for continued processing; or (c) the data has been unlawfully processed. Please note that erasure requests may be refused where retention is required by law — for example, KYC and transaction records that must be held to satisfy anti-money laundering obligations.
7.4 Right to restrict processing. You may request that we restrict the processing of your data while the accuracy of the data is contested, while an objection to processing is pending, or where processing is unlawful but you prefer restriction to erasure.
7.5 Right to data portability. You may request that we provide your personal data in a portable format for transfer to another service provider. This right applies to data you provided to us directly and which we process on the basis of contract or consent.
7.6 Right to object. You have the right to object to processing carried out on the basis of our legitimate interests, including profiling for responsible gaming monitoring. We will cease such processing unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds that override your interests.
7.7 Marketing opt-out. You may withdraw consent to marketing communications at any time. To opt out of all marketing emails and SMS from 33bat, follow the unsubscribe link in any marketing message or send an opt-out request to [email protected]. Withdrawal of marketing consent does not affect your ability to continue using the 33bat platform.
7.8 Exercising your rights. All data rights requests should be submitted to [email protected]. We may ask you to verify your identity before processing a request to prevent unauthorised disclosure of your data. We will respond to all valid requests within 30 days. If we are unable to comply with a request, we will explain the reason in writing.
Minors and Age Restrictions
33bat Does Not Serve Players Under 21
8.1 The 33bat platform is strictly restricted to individuals aged 21 years or older. We do not knowingly collect, store or process personal information belonging to anyone under the age of 21. Age verification is conducted as part of the registration process and again during KYC verification prior to the first withdrawal.
8.2 If 33bat discovers that personal data has been collected from a player who was under 21 at the time of registration, the account will be closed immediately, all balances will be handled in accordance with our Terms & Conditions, and all personal data associated with that account will be securely deleted from our systems without undue delay.
8.3 Parents or guardians who believe that a minor may have registered on the 33bat platform should contact [email protected] immediately. We will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action within 48 hours of receiving a verified report.
21+ Only. Gambling is an adult activity. 33bat is committed to preventing underage access to its platform. If you are concerned about a young person's gambling activity, please contact our support team immediately or visit our Responsible Gaming page for guidance and self-exclusion tools.
