We are committed to protecting the privacy and personal data of every player who uses our platform. This Privacy Policy describes our practices regarding the collection, use, storage, sharing, and protection of personal data in connection with your use of abc1.

By registering an account or otherwise using the abc1 platform, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy and consent to the collection and use of your personal data as described herein. If you do not agree with any part of this policy, please discontinue use of the platform.

2. What Data We Collect

abc1 collects only the data that is necessary to deliver, maintain, and improve our services. The categories of personal data we may collect include the following.

3. How We Collect Your Data

We collect personal data through a number of channels when you interact with abc1. The primary means of collection are as follows.

• Directly from you at registration — when you create your abc1 account, you provide your name, date of birth, email address, mobile number, and preferred payment method.
• During KYC verification — when you submit identity documents (national ID card, passport, or driving licence) to complete account verification or unlock higher withdrawal limits.
• Through platform usage — automatically, as you browse the abc1 platform. This includes server logs, session data, page interaction events, and in-app behaviour analytics.
• From payment processors — transaction metadata (amount, timestamp, method, status) is shared with abc1 by payment partners such as bKash and Nagad when you make a deposit or withdrawal.
• Via customer support — when you contact abc1 support through live chat or email, we retain the content of those communications to assist in resolving your query and for quality assurance.

4. How We Use Your Data

abc1 uses collected personal data only for legitimate purposes directly connected to the operation of the platform and the delivery of services to you. The specific purposes for which we process your data are as follows.

• Account creation and management — to create and maintain your abc1 player account, verify your identity, and process your login credentials securely.
• Payment processing — to facilitate deposits and withdrawals via bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay, Visa, and Mastercard, and to maintain accurate financial records for each account.
• Regulatory compliance and fraud prevention — to conduct KYC checks, comply with anti-money-laundering obligations, detect and prevent fraudulent activity, and respond to law enforcement requests where required.
• Responsible gaming — to monitor player activity for indicators of problem gambling, enforce deposit limits and self-exclusion requests, and proactively reach out to players who may need support.
• Platform improvement — to analyse aggregate usage patterns, diagnose technical issues, test new features, and improve the overall player experience on abc1.
• Marketing communications — to send you promotional offers, bonus notifications, and platform updates where you have opted in to receive such communications. You may opt out at any time via account settings.

Customer support — to respond to your enquiries, process complaints, and maintain a record of support interactions for quality and training purposes.

5. Legal Basis for Processing

abc1 processes your personal data on one or more of the following legal bases, depending on the nature and purpose of the processing activity.

• Contractual necessity — processing your data is required to fulfil our contract with you, including account management, payment processing, and game delivery.
• Legal obligation — certain processing activities are required by applicable law, including KYC identity verification, financial record-keeping, and anti-money-laundering compliance.
• Legitimate interests — analytics, fraud detection, platform security improvements, and responsible gaming monitoring are conducted on the basis of abc1's legitimate business interests, provided these do not override your fundamental rights.
• Consent — for optional marketing communications and certain non-essential cookies, we rely on your explicit consent. You may withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of prior processing.

6. Data Sharing and Disclosure

abc1 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to third parties for their own marketing purposes. We share your data only in the limited circumstances described below.

• Payment service providers — bKash, Nagad, Rocket, and card payment processors receive transaction data necessary to facilitate your deposits and withdrawals. These providers operate under their own privacy policies and are bound by applicable financial regulations.
• Technology and infrastructure partners — hosting providers, content delivery networks, and analytics vendors may process technical data on our behalf under strict data processing agreements that prohibit independent use of your data.
• Game providers — certain game data (session identifiers, bet amounts, game outcomes) is shared with game providers such as Evolution Gaming, Pragmatic Play, and Spribe solely to operate the game engine and verify results.
• Legal and regulatory authorities — we may disclose personal data to competent authorities, courts, or law enforcement bodies when required by law, court order, or where disclosure is necessary to protect the legal rights of abc1 or prevent harm.

7. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

abc1 uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to operate the platform, remember your preferences, analyse usage, and improve your overall experience. The cookies we use fall into three categories.

• Essential cookies — these are strictly necessary for the platform to function. They enable login sessions, maintain your account state, and ensure secure payment flows. These cannot be disabled without breaking core platform functionality.
• Preference cookies — these store your language selection, notification settings, and display preferences so that your chosen settings persist across sessions.
• Analytics cookies — these help abc1 understand how users navigate the platform, which features are most used, and where technical issues occur. Data collected is aggregated and not linked to individual accounts for analytics purposes.

You can manage your cookie preferences through your mobile browser settings. Note that disabling preference or analytics cookies will not affect your ability to use abc1 core features, but may reduce the personalisation of your experience.

8. Data Security

abc1 applies industry-standard technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, destruction, or disclosure. These measures include SSL/TLS encryption for all data in transit, encrypted storage for sensitive account information, access controls that restrict data access to authorised personnel only, regular security audits and vulnerability assessments, and multi-factor authentication options for player accounts.

While abc1 takes all reasonable steps to protect your data, no online platform can guarantee absolute security. In the unlikely event of a data breach that poses a risk to your rights, abc1 will notify affected users and relevant authorities promptly in accordance with applicable data protection obligations.

9. Data Retention

abc1 retains your personal data for as long as your account is active and for a period thereafter as required by applicable legal and regulatory obligations. Financial transaction records are retained for a minimum of five years following account closure to satisfy anti-money-laundering and tax record-keeping requirements. Communications and support records are retained for two years following the resolution of the relevant enquiry.

When retention periods expire and there is no overriding legal obligation requiring continued storage, abc1 securely deletes or anonymises your personal data. You may request early deletion of certain data types by contacting abc1 support — subject to the exceptions noted in Section 9 above and to any ongoing legal obligations.

10. Your Data Rights

As a user of abc1, you have the following rights with respect to your personal data. To exercise any of these rights, please contact abc1 support via live chat or by emailing [email protected]. abc1 will respond to all valid requests within 30 days.

abc1 will verify your identity before actioning any data rights request. In some cases, particularly where legal retention obligations apply, abc1 may be unable to fulfil a deletion request in full. Where this is the case, abc1 will explain the reasons clearly.

11. Children and Minors

abc1 is strictly an adult platform. We do not knowingly collect or process personal data from any individual under 21 years of age. If abc1 discovers that personal data has been collected from a minor, the account will be immediately suspended, the data will be securely deleted, and any funds associated with the account will be handled in accordance with our Terms and Conditions. Parents or guardians who believe their child may have registered on abc1 should contact our support team immediately at [email protected].

12. Third-Party Links and Services

The abc1 platform may reference third-party service providers such as payment processors and game studios. abc1 is not responsible for the privacy practices of these third parties. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party services you engage with in connection with your abc1 account — particularly bKash, Nagad, and Rocket if you use mobile financial services for deposits and withdrawals.

13. Changes to This Privacy Policy

abc1 may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our data practices, applicable law, or platform features. When material changes are made, we will provide notice to registered users via email or a prominent notice displayed upon login. The updated policy will take effect from the date indicated at the top of the document.

The most current version of this Privacy Policy is always available at abc1.bar/privacy-policy. We encourage you to review this page periodically. Your continued use of abc1 following any update constitutes your acceptance of the revised Privacy Policy.
