bs8 Privacy Policy
At bs8, your privacy matters. This policy explains exactly what personal data we collect, why we collect it, how we use and protect it, and the rights you hold as a Bangladesh player on our platform.
1. Introduction
This Privacy Policy ("Policy") describes how bs8 ("Platform", "we", "us", "our") collects, processes, stores, and protects personal data belonging to Players ("you", "your") who register and use the bs8 online casino and sports betting platform at bs8.im. By creating a bs8 account or using our services, you confirm that you have read and understood this Policy.
bs8 is committed to handling your personal data with transparency, care, and respect . We collect only the data that is genuinely necessary to operate our services, verify your identity, process your payments, and keep your account secure. We do not sell your personal data to third parties, and we do not use it for purposes beyond those described in this Policy.
This Policy applies to all personal data collected through the bs8 website, mobile interface, customer support channels, and any other touchpoint through which you interact with bs8. It should be read alongside our Terms & Conditions and our Responsible Gaming page, both of which contain additional obligations that govern your use of the bs8 Platform.

4. Legal Basis for Processing
bs8 processes your personal data only where we have a valid lawful basis for doing so. The primary legal bases on which we rely are set out below.
Processing your registration data, KYC documents, and payment information is necessary for us to perform our contract with you â specifically, to open and maintain your account and to process your financial transactions on the bs8 Platform.
We process technical data, gaming activity data, and communications data on the basis of our legitimate interests in operating a secure, fraud-free, and legally compliant gaming platform. We ensure that our legitimate interests do not override your fundamental privacy rights.
Certain processing activities â including identity verification, transaction monitoring, and responsible gaming record-keeping â are carried out to comply with legal and regulatory obligations applicable to bs8's operations.
Where we send you marketing communications or use non-essential cookies, we do so only on the basis of your freely given, specific, and informed consent. You may withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us at [email protected] without any negative impact on your account.
5. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
bs8 uses cookies and similar tracking technologies (including local storage and session tokens) to operate the Platform, maintain your session after bs8 login, remember your preferences, and analyse aggregated usage patterns. By using the bs8 Platform, you consent to the use of essential cookies required for the site to function. Non-essential analytics cookies are only placed with your explicit consent.
Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your browser when you visit bs8.im. They allow the Platform to recognise your device across pages, keep you logged in during a session, and store your language and display preferences. bs8 does not use cookies to track your activity on third-party websites, and we do not share cookie data with advertising networks.
You may control cookie settings through your browser's built-in privacy controls. Please note that disabling essential cookies will prevent the bs8 Platform from functioning correctly, including the ability to log in, maintain a session, or process transactions. Disabling non-essential analytics cookies will not affect your ability to use the Platform.
6. How We Share Your Data
bs8 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data. We share personal data only with trusted third parties where it is strictly necessary to deliver our services or to comply with legal obligations. All third-party recipients are required to handle your data securely and in accordance with applicable data protection standards.
We share relevant transaction data with payment partners including bKash, Nagad, Rocket, and Upay solely to process deposits and withdrawals. These providers receive only the minimum data required to execute and confirm a transaction and are independently responsible for the security of their own platforms.
Game providers such as Evolution Gaming, Ezugi, Pragmatic Play, Microgaming, NetEnt, and Spribe may receive your session token and anonymised player identifier in order to deliver game content and record game outcomes. These providers do not receive your full name, NID, or payment details.
bs8 will disclose personal data to law enforcement agencies, regulatory authorities, or courts where required to do so by law, or where we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect the rights, safety, or property of bs8, our Players, or the public.
We may share data with specialist fraud prevention and security partners to detect and prevent money laundering, account takeovers, and other prohibited activity. Any such sharing is conducted under strict confidentiality agreements and is limited to the minimum data necessary for the specific security purpose.
7. Data Retention
bs8 retains your personal data for as long as your account remains active and for a reasonable period thereafter to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, enforce our agreements, and maintain audit records. The specific retention periods we apply are as follows:
- Account registration data and KYC documents are retained for the lifetime of the account plus a minimum of five (5) years following account closure, in accordance with applicable anti-money laundering record-keeping requirements.
- Transaction records (deposits, withdrawals, and bet history in BDT) are retained for a minimum of five (5) years from the date of each transaction.
- Customer support communications are retained for three (3) years from the date of the last interaction.
- Technical and device data (IP logs, session records) are retained for twelve (12) months from the date of collection, after which they are deleted or fully anonymised.
- Marketing consent records are retained for the duration of the account and for two (2) years after consent is withdrawn, to demonstrate compliance with consent requirements.
- Self-exclusion records are retained indefinitely to prevent re-registration by self-excluded Players, in accordance with responsible gaming best practices.
When personal data is no longer required for the purposes described above, bs8 securely deletes or anonymises it. Anonymised data (from which it is not possible to identify any individual) may be retained and used for analytical and statistical purposes without limit.
8. Data Security
bs8 implements a layered approach to data security, combining technical controls, organisational policies, and staff training to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. Our security measures include, but are not limited to, the following:
All data transmitted between your device and bs8.im is encrypted using industry-standard TLS (Transport Layer Security). Passwords are stored using one-way hashing algorithms and are never stored in plain text. Access to personal data within bs8 is restricted on a strict need-to-know basis, and all staff with access to personal data are bound by confidentiality obligations. We perform regular security reviews and penetration tests to identify and address vulnerabilities in our systems.
Despite these precautions, no internet-based system can guarantee absolute security. In the event of a personal data breach that is likely to result in a risk to your rights and freedoms, bs8 will notify affected Players without undue delay and will take all reasonable steps to contain and mitigate the impact of the breach.
