Data Protection & Privacy
Privacy Policy — How bigbd Collects, Uses & Protects Your Data
Your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains what personal information bigbd collects from players in Bangladesh and internationally, how we use that information, who we share it with, and the rights you hold over your own data. We are committed to handling your information with care, transparency, and respect.
All data transmitted between your device and the bigbd platform is protected by industry-standard SSL/TLS encryption. This ensures that your personal and financial information cannot be intercepted in transit.
bigbd does not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third-party marketers. Your data is shared only with service providers necessary for platform operation and regulatory compliance.
Registered bigbd players have the right to access, correct, export, or request deletion of their personal data at any time by contacting our support team at [email protected].
Player data is stored on secured servers with access controls, audit logging, and regular security reviews. Payment credentials are handled exclusively by PCI-compliant payment processors and are never stored on bigbd servers.
bigbd uses cookies primarily for session management, fraud prevention, and platform analytics. We do not use third-party advertising cookies. Full details of our cookie categories and their purposes are set out in the Cookies section below.
Promotional emails and SMS notifications from bigbd are strictly opt-in. You may withdraw your marketing consent at any time via Account Settings or by replying STOP to any SMS. Transactional communications (e.g., withdrawal confirmations) are not affected by marketing opt-out.

The categories of information we collect, and the context in which we collect them, are described below. We collect only information that is necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy and do not retain it for longer than those purposes require.

3. Data Sharing & Third Parties
bigbd does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data. We share information only in the specific circumstances described below, and only with parties that are bound by appropriate data protection obligations.
3.1 Service Providers
bigbd engages third-party service providers to support the delivery of our platform. These providers are granted access to only the minimum personal data required to perform their contracted functions and are prohibited from using that data for any other purpose.

3.2 Legal and Regulatory Disclosure
bigbd may disclose personal data to law enforcement agencies, regulatory authorities, or other competent public bodies where we are legally required or permitted to do so — for example, in response to a court order, a statutory demand, or a lawful request in connection with an investigation into fraud, money laundering, or other criminal activity. In all such cases, bigbd will disclose only the minimum data necessary to satisfy the legal obligation and will, where legally permissible, notify the affected player of the disclosure.
3.3 Business Transfers
In the event that bigbd undergoes a merger, acquisition, restructuring, or sale of all or part of its business assets, player personal data may be transferred to the acquiring entity as part of that transaction. In such circumstances, bigbd will take reasonable steps to ensure that the acquiring entity is bound by privacy obligations equivalent to those in this Privacy Policy, and will notify registered players of any material change in data controller via their registered email address before the transfer takes effect.
4. Cookies & Tracking Technologies
bigbd uses cookies and similar technologies (such as local storage and session tokens) to operate the platform, maintain your logged-in session, prevent fraud, and understand how the platform is being used. Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your browser. They do not contain executable code and cannot access other files on your device.

You may manage or delete cookies at any time through your browser's privacy or settings menu. Disabling strictly necessary cookies will prevent you from logging in to your bigbd account and using most platform features. Disabling functional or analytics cookies will not affect your ability to play games or manage your account.
bigbd does not use cross-site tracking cookies, retargeting pixels, or third-party advertising networks. The analytics data we collect is processed in aggregated, anonymised form and is not used to build individual profiles or target you with advertisements on other platforms.
5. Data Security & Retention
bigbd takes the security of your personal data seriously and implements a range of technical and organisational measures designed to protect your information against unauthorised access, accidental loss, alteration, or disclosure.

- Security monitoring: bigbd's systems are monitored continuously for anomalous activity, intrusion attempts, and data access irregularities. Security incidents are responded to in accordance with a documented incident response procedure.
- Payment security: Full payment card and mobile wallet credentials are handled exclusively by PCI DSS-compliant payment processors. bigbd stores only the minimum reference information needed to associate a transaction with an account.

bigbd retains personal data only for as long as is necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, subject to applicable legal minimum retention periods. The following general retention periods apply:
- Active account data: Retained for the duration of your account relationship with bigbd plus a minimum of five (5) years after account closure, in compliance with anti-money-laundering record-keeping obligations.

6. Your Privacy Rights
As a bigbd player, you hold the following rights over the personal data we hold about you. To exercise any of these rights, contact bigbd's support team at [email protected] with the subject line "Privacy Rights Request". We will acknowledge your request within five (5) business days and aim to fulfil it within thirty (30) calendar days.
- Right of access: You may request a copy of the personal data that bigbd holds about you, including details of the purposes for which it is processed and the categories of data involved.
- Right to rectification: If any personal data we hold about you is inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to request that it be corrected. Minor corrections (such as updating a phone number or email address) can be made directly via Account Settings.
- Right to erasure: You may request that bigbd delete your personal data where it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, where you have withdrawn your consent (and no other lawful basis applies), or where the data has been processed unlawfully. This right is subject to legal minimum retention requirements — for example, transaction records required for AML compliance cannot be deleted on request.
- Right to data portability: You may request a copy of the personal data you have provided to bigbd in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format (such as CSV or JSON), where technically feasible.
- Right to restrict processing: In certain circumstances — for example, while a dispute about data accuracy is being resolved — you may request that bigbd restrict the processing of your data to storage only.
- Right to object: You have the right to object to the processing of your personal data where bigbd relies on legitimate interests as its lawful basis. You also have an unconditional right to object to the use of your data for direct marketing purposes.
- Right to withdraw consent: Where bigbd processes your data on the basis of consent (e.g., for promotional communications), you may withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.
7. Minors & Age Verification
The bigbd platform is strictly intended for adults aged 18 years and above. bigbd does not knowingly collect, process, or retain personal data belonging to individuals under the age of 18. Age verification is conducted as part of the registration and KYC processes, and bigbd reserves the right to request documentary proof of age at any point during a player's account lifecycle.
If bigbd becomes aware that personal data has been collected from a person under the age of 18 — whether through erroneous self-declaration during registration or any other means — that account will be immediately suspended, all associated data will be reviewed, and any balance will be handled in accordance with bigbd's Terms & Conditions. The account will then be permanently closed and the personal data of the underage individual deleted from our active systems, subject to any legal minimum retention requirements that may apply.
Parents and guardians who have reason to believe that a minor has registered on the bigbd platform should contact support immediately at [email protected]. bigbd will prioritise such reports and take prompt action. We also encourage parents and guardians to make use of parental control software and device-level content filtering tools to restrict access to gambling websites.
8. Policy Updates & Contact
bigbd reviews and updates this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in our data processing practices, legal obligations, or platform features. The effective date at the top of this policy indicates when the current version was last revised. Where a material change is made — for example, a new category of data being collected, a new purpose for which existing data is used, or a change in data retention periods — registered players will be notified via their registered email address at least seven (7) days before the change takes effect.
Your continued use of the bigbd platform after the effective date of a revised Privacy Policy constitutes your acceptance of the updated terms. If you do not agree with any change to this policy, you should cease using the platform and request account closure as described in the bigbd Terms & Conditions.
