This Privacy Policy ("Policy") sets out the basis on which 8u888 ("8u888", "we", "us", "our") collects, processes, stores, and shares personal data relating to individuals ("you", "User", "Player") who visit, register with, or otherwise interact with the 8u888 platform accessible at https://8u888.io and any associated subdomains or mobile-optimised versions thereof.

8u888 is committed to protecting the privacy and security of the personal data entrusted to us by our players in Bangladesh and elsewhere. We recognise the importance of maintaining the confidentiality of your personal information and take our responsibilities in this regard seriously. This Policy is intended to provide you with a clear and transparent account of how your data is handled at every stage of your relationship with 8u888.

By accessing the 8u888 platform, creating an account, or otherwise interacting with our services, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy and consent to the collection and processing of your personal data as described herein. This Policy should be read alongside the 8u888 Terms and Conditions and Responsible Gaming Policy, both of which are integral parts of the agreement governing your use of the platform.

2 Personal Data We Collect

8u888 collects personal data through several channels during the course of providing its services. The categories of personal data we may collect include, but are not limited to, the following:

2.1 Registration and Identity Data

When you open an 8u888 account, we collect information necessary to identify you and create your account profile. This includes your full name, date of birth, residential address, email address, and phone number. Where required for Know Your Customer (KYC) verification, we may also collect copies of government-issued identity documents such as a National Identity Card (NID), passport, or driving licence, as well as a proof of address document.

To process deposits and withdrawals in Bangladeshi Taka (৳ BDT), we collect information relating to your selected payment method. This may include the mobile number associated with your bKash, Nagad, Rocket, or Upay account, or the last four digits and billing details of a Visa or Mastercard. Full card numbers and mobile banking PINs are processed exclusively by our payment service partners and are not stored on 8u888's servers.

2.4 Gaming Activity Data

We record data relating to your activity on the 8u888 platform, including the games you play, betting amounts and outcomes, bonus usage, session history, and responsible gaming settings. This data is used to manage your account, calculate winnings, enforce bonus terms, identify potentially problematic gambling patterns, and comply with our responsible gaming obligations.

4 Legal Basis for Processing

8u888 processes personal data only where a valid legal basis exists. The primary legal bases on which we rely are as follows:

4.1 Contractual Necessity

The majority of personal data processing undertaken by 8u888 is necessary for the performance of the contract between 8u888 and the player — specifically, to deliver the gaming and betting services described in the Terms and Conditions. This includes processing data for account management, payment facilitation, and customer support.

4.2 Legal Obligation

Certain processing activities are required for 8u888 to comply with applicable legal and regulatory obligations. This includes processing data for KYC/identity verification, anti-money laundering (AML) screening, record-keeping, and responding to lawful requests from competent authorities.

4.3 Legitimate Interests

8u888 relies on legitimate interests as a legal basis for processing activities such as fraud detection, security monitoring, platform analytics, and internal research, provided that such interests are not overridden by your privacy rights and interests.

4.4 Consent

Where 8u888 relies on consent as the legal basis for processing — primarily for sending marketing and promotional communications — you are entitled to withdraw that consent at any time by contacting [email protected] or updating your communication preferences within your account settings. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out prior to that withdrawal.

5 Data Sharing and Disclosure

8u888 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data with third parties for their own marketing purposes under any circumstances. We may, however, share your personal data with the following categories of recipients where necessary and proportionate:

• Payment service providers: bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay, Visa, Mastercard, and other payment processors, to facilitate deposit and withdrawal transactions.
• Identity verification services: Third-party KYC and AML service providers engaged to verify player identity documents and conduct screening checks.
• Game content providers: Studio partners such as Pragmatic Play, Evolution Gaming, NetEnt, Microgaming, Spribe, and Ezugi, to the extent necessary to operate their respective games and maintain game integrity.
• IT and infrastructure providers: Cloud hosting, data storage, and cybersecurity service providers engaged to support the operation and security of the 8u888 platform.
• Legal and regulatory authorities: Competent government bodies, law enforcement agencies, and courts where 8u888 is legally required or permitted to disclose personal data.
• Professional advisers: Lawyers, auditors, accountants, and other professional advisers engaged by 8u888 on a confidential basis.

All third-party service providers engaged by 8u888 are contractually required to process personal data only in accordance with 8u888's instructions, to maintain appropriate security measures, and to refrain from using personal data for their own independent purposes.
