🔒 Data & Privacy

188bet Privacy Policy

Your personal data belongs to you. This policy explains exactly what 188bet collects, why we collect it, how we use it, and the rights you have as a player in Bangladesh.

Last updated: 1 January 2025

At 188bet, we take your privacy seriously. This Privacy Policy explains how 188bet collects, uses, stores, and protects the personal information of players who use our platform — including the website, mobile app, and all related services. This policy applies to all players accessing 188bet from Bangladesh.

By registering an account or using any part of the 188bet platform, you confirm that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy and consent to the collection and use of your data as described here. If you do not agree, please do not use the 188bet platform.

Short version: 188bet collects only the data we need to run your account, process payments, and keep the platform secure. We do not sell your personal data to third parties. You can request access to your data or ask us to delete it at any time by contacting our support team.

6 Cookies & Tracking

188bet uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to keep the platform running smoothly and to understand how players use it. A cookie is a small text file stored on your device when you visit the 188bet website.

  • Essential cookies: Required for the platform to function. These handle your login session and keep your account secure. You cannot opt out of these.
  • Analytics cookies: Help us understand which pages are most visited and how players navigate the platform. This data is aggregated and anonymous.
  • Preference cookies: Remember your settings such as language and display preferences so you do not have to reset them each visit.
  • Security cookies: Used to detect suspicious activity and protect your account from unauthorised access.

You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings. Disabling non-essential cookies will not prevent you from using 188bet, but some features may work less smoothly.


7 Data Retention

188bet retains your personal data for as long as your account is active and for a reasonable period after account closure to comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. Specifically:

  • Account and identity data is retained for a minimum of five years after account closure to meet anti-money laundering requirements.
  • Transaction records are retained for a minimum of five years in line with financial record-keeping obligations.
  • Support communications are retained for two years after the conversation is closed.
  • Technical and usage data is typically retained for 12 months before being anonymised or deleted.

Once the applicable retention period has passed, your data is securely deleted or anonymised so that it can no longer be linked back to you.


8 Security Measures

Protecting your data is a core responsibility at 188bet. We implement a range of technical and organisational security measures to keep your personal and financial information safe:

  • All data transmitted between your device and the 188bet platform is encrypted using TLS (Transport Layer Security).
  • Financial data such as your bKash and Nagad account details are stored in encrypted form and are never displayed in full after initial entry.
  • Access to player data within 188bet is restricted to authorised personnel on a need-to-know basis.
  • Our systems are monitored continuously for suspicious activity and potential security threats.
  • We conduct regular security reviews and updates to our infrastructure.

While 188bet takes every reasonable precaution to protect your data, no online platform can guarantee absolute security. You also play a role in keeping your account safe — use a strong, unique password and never share your login credentials with anyone.

Security tip: If you ever suspect that your 188bet account has been accessed without your permission, contact our support team immediately via live chat. We can lock your account within minutes.
