badjali Privacy Policy
Your privacy matters to us. This Privacy Policy explains exactly what personal data badjali collects, why we collect it, how it is stored and protected, and the rights you hold over your own information as a player on our platform in Bangladesh.
Encrypted Storage
All personally identifiable data stored on badjali servers is encrypted at rest using industry-standard 256-bit AES encryption. Passwords are hashed using bcrypt and are never stored in plain text.
No Data Sales
badjali does not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third-party advertisers or data brokers. Your data is used solely to provide and improve the badjali service.
Your Data, Your Rights
You have the right to access, correct, export, or request deletion of your personal data at any time. Submit a request to our support team and we will respond within 30 days in accordance with applicable data protection standards.
Transparent Cookie Use
badjali uses cookies strictly for session management, security, and platform analytics. We do not deploy invasive third-party advertising trackers. You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings at any time.
Opt-Out of Marketing
Promotional emails and SMS alerts from badjali are entirely optional. You may withdraw your consent to receive marketing communications at any time through your account settings or by contacting our support team directly.
Defined Retention Periods
badjali does not retain your personal data indefinitely. Retention periods are tied to the purpose for which data was collected — active account data is retained while your account is open, and transaction records are kept for the period required by applicable financial regulations.
1. Information We Collect
badjali collects personal data only to the extent necessary to operate the platform, process transactions, verify player identity, and comply with applicable legal and financial obligations. Below is a detailed breakdown of the categories of information we collect and the circumstances in which each category arises.
| Category | Examples | When Collected |
|---|---|---|
| Identity Data | Full legal name, date of birth, nationality, government-issued ID number | At registration and during KYC verification |
| Contact Data | Email address, mobile phone number, residential address | At registration and when you update your profile |
| Financial Data | bKash / Nagad / Rocket / Upay account references, Visa or Mastercard details (tokenised), transaction history | When you make a deposit or request a withdrawal |
| Technical Data | IP address, browser type and version, device type, operating system, session timestamps | Automatically when you access the platform |
| Behavioural Data | Games played, bets placed, wagering patterns, session duration, feature interactions | Continuously during active platform sessions |
| Communications Data | Content of support tickets, live chat transcripts, email correspondence with our team | When you contact badjali customer support |
| Marketing Preferences | Opt-in or opt-out status for email promotions, SMS alerts, and push notifications | At registration and whenever you update your communication preferences |
Sensitive Data: badjali does not intentionally collect sensitive personal data such as racial or ethnic origin, religious beliefs, political opinions, health data, or biometric data. If you voluntarily disclose such information through a support interaction, it will be used only to address your immediate query and will not be stored beyond that purpose.
2. How We Use Your Data
badjali processes your personal data for specific, legitimate purposes. We do not use your data for purposes incompatible with those for which it was originally collected. The primary purposes for which we process your personal data are set out below.
2.1 Account Management and Service Delivery
We use your identity and contact data to create and maintain your badjali account, verify your identity, authenticate your login sessions, and deliver the core betting and gaming services you have requested. Without this processing, we cannot operate your account or provide the platform to you.
2.2 Transaction Processing
Your financial data is processed to facilitate deposits via bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay, Visa, and Mastercard, and to execute withdrawal requests to your registered payment method. Transaction records are retained in accordance with applicable financial regulations, which may require us to hold certain records for an extended period following account closure.
2.3 Identity Verification and Fraud Prevention
badjali is committed to operating a safe and compliant platform. We use identity, financial, and technical data to verify that you are who you say you are, to detect and prevent fraud, to identify potential money laundering activity, and to enforce the one-account-per-player policy. This processing is a legal obligation and a legitimate interest of badjali.
2.4 Responsible Gaming Monitoring
We analyse behavioural data — including wagering patterns, session frequency, and deposit volumes — to identify signs of problem gambling. Where our systems detect behaviour that may indicate gambling harm, we may proactively contact you with responsible gaming resources or apply account-level protective measures. This processing is carried out in your vital interest and in the public interest of promoting responsible gambling.
2.5 Platform Improvement and Analytics
Technical and behavioural data is used in aggregated, anonymised form to understand how players interact with the badjali platform, identify areas for improvement, optimise game loading performance, and develop new features. Individual players cannot be identified from the aggregated analytics data we generate for this purpose.
2.6 Marketing Communications
Where you have provided explicit consent, we may use your contact data to send you promotional emails, SMS alerts, and in-platform notifications about new games, deposit bonuses, BPL cricket betting promotions, and special seasonal offers such as Eid and Pohela Boishakh campaigns. You may withdraw your consent at any time. We do not send marketing communications to players who have opted out or who are subject to an active self-exclusion order.
2.7 Legal Compliance
badjali may process and disclose your personal data where required to do so by applicable law, court order, or the lawful request of a competent regulatory or law enforcement authority. In such cases, we will disclose only the minimum data necessary to comply with the legal obligation.
3. Data Sharing & Disclosure
Our Core Commitment: badjali does not sell your personal data to any third party. We share data with external parties only where strictly necessary to deliver the platform services you use, to comply with legal obligations, or to protect the integrity of the platform.
3.1 Payment Service Providers
To process your deposits and withdrawals, badjali shares necessary financial data with our integrated payment partners, including bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay, and the relevant card processing networks for Visa and Mastercard transactions. Each payment partner operates under their own privacy policy and data security standards. Data shared with payment partners is limited to the minimum required to complete the transaction.
3.2 Game Providers
badjali hosts games developed by third-party studios including Pragmatic Play, Evolution Gaming, NetEnt, Microgaming, Spribe, Ezugi, and others. When you launch a game, a session token and anonymised player reference may be shared with the relevant game provider to authenticate your session and record game outcomes. Game providers do not receive your full name, contact details, or financial information.
3.3 Identity Verification Partners
For KYC verification, badjali may use third-party identity verification services. These providers receive copies of the identity documents you submit — such as your National ID card or passport — and process them solely for the purpose of confirming your identity. Verification providers are contractually bound to use your data only for this purpose and to delete it once verification is complete.
3.4 Legal and Regulatory Authorities
badjali will disclose personal data to law enforcement agencies, financial intelligence units, or other regulatory bodies where we are legally compelled to do so, or where disclosure is necessary to prevent or investigate fraud, money laundering, or other criminal activity. We will notify you of such a disclosure wherever we are legally permitted to do so.
3.5 Corporate Transactions
In the event that badjali undergoes a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your personal data may be transferred to the successor entity as part of that transaction. We will notify registered players in advance of any such transfer and ensure that the receiving entity is bound by privacy obligations at least as protective as those set out in this Policy.
5. Data Retention
badjali retains your personal data only for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected, or as required by applicable law. The following retention principles apply:
- Active account data — retained for the full duration of your active badjali account relationship.
- Transaction and financial records — retained for a minimum of five years following the date of the transaction, in accordance with standard financial record-keeping obligations.
- KYC and identity verification documents — retained for a minimum of five years following account closure or the completion of the KYC process, whichever is later.
- Customer support communications — retained for up to three years following the resolution of the relevant support query.
- Marketing preferences and consent records — retained for the duration of your account and for up to two years following account closure, to demonstrate compliance with consent obligations.
- Anonymised analytics data — may be retained indefinitely, as it cannot be used to identify any individual player.
- Self-exclusion records — retained indefinitely to prevent re-registration by players who have requested permanent exclusion.
Upon the expiry of the applicable retention period, badjali will securely delete or anonymise your personal data. Where deletion is not immediately possible due to technical constraints, the data will be isolated from active processing and scheduled for deletion at the earliest practicable opportunity.
Account Closure Requests: If you close your badjali account, we will begin the data retention countdown from the date of closure. You may request confirmation of the retention period applicable to your data by contacting our support team at support@badjali.
6. Data Security Measures
badjali takes the security of your personal data seriously and employs a layered set of technical and organisational measures to protect it against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. Key security measures currently in place include:
6.1 Encryption in Transit and at Rest
All data transmitted between your browser or device and the badjali platform is encrypted using TLS 1.2 or higher, enforced by our 256-bit SSL certificate. Personal data stored on our servers is encrypted at rest using AES-256 encryption. Player passwords are stored as salted bcrypt hashes and are never accessible in plain text to any member of the badjali team.
6.2 Access Controls
Access to player personal data within badjali's internal systems is restricted on a strict need-to-know basis. Staff members are granted only the minimum level of data access required for their specific role. All internal access to personal data is logged and audited. Administrative accounts are protected by multi-factor authentication.
6.3 Network and Infrastructure Security
badjali's platform infrastructure is protected by firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and regular vulnerability scanning. We conduct periodic security assessments and penetration tests to identify and remediate potential weaknesses before they can be exploited.
6.4 Data Breach Response
In the event of a confirmed personal data breach that is likely to result in a risk to your rights and freedoms, badjali will notify affected players within 24 hours of becoming aware of the breach, where it is technically and operationally feasible to do so. Our notification will describe the nature of the breach, the categories of data affected, the likely consequences, and the steps we are taking to address it.
6.5 Your Role in Security
While badjali takes all reasonable steps to protect your data, the security of your account also depends on your own actions. You should choose a strong, unique password for your badjali account, never share your login credentials with any third party, and notify us immediately if you suspect that your account has been accessed without your authorisation.
