pc88 Privacy Policy
At pc88, your privacy is a fundamental part of how we operate. This Privacy Policy explains exactly what personal data we collect from Bangladesh players, how we use it, who we share it with, and the rights you hold over your own information.
Our Commitment
Six Privacy Principles We Live By
We Never Sell Your Data
pc88 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to any third party for marketing or commercial purposes. Your data is used solely to operate and improve the services you use on the platform.
Minimal Data Collection
We collect only the data we genuinely need to provide our services, verify your identity, process your payments, and comply with applicable legal obligations. No data is collected for its own sake.
Bank-Grade Encryption
All data transmitted between your device and pc88's servers is protected by TLS/SSL encryption. Sensitive data at rest is encrypted using industry-standard protocols. Payment data is handled by certified payment processors and never stored in plain form on our servers.
Your Rights Are Real
You have the right to access, correct, port, and request deletion of your personal data held by pc88. These rights can be exercised at any time by contacting our support team. We process data rights requests promptly and without unnecessary delay.
Clear Retention Periods
We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected, plus any legally required retention period. Once data is no longer needed, it is securely deleted or anonymised.
Transparent Updates
When we make material changes to this Privacy Policy, we notify registered Players via the email address on file at least seven days before changes take effect. The current version is always accessible on the pc88 website.

- IT and hosting providers: Companies that host our platform infrastructure and provide cloud services receive access to server-level data under strict confidentiality agreements.
- Analytics and security services: Anonymised or aggregated usage data may be shared with analytics providers to help us understand platform performance. Fraud detection services may receive technical data such as IP addresses and device fingerprints to identify suspicious activity.
- Legal and regulatory authorities: We will disclose personal data to law enforcement agencies, courts, or regulatory bodies where required to do so by applicable law, valid legal process, or to protect the rights and safety of our players and the integrity of the platform.
8 Cookies & Tracking
pc88 uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to deliver a consistent and personalised experience on the platform. Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They do not contain executable code and cannot access other data on your device.
8.1 Types of Cookies We Use
- Strictly necessary cookies: Required for core platform functions such as maintaining your logged-in session, remembering your language preference, and enabling secure payment flows. These cannot be disabled without significantly impairing your ability to use pc88.
- Performance and analytics cookies: Collect anonymised data about how players interact with the platform — which pages are visited most, where users encounter errors, and how long sessions last. This data helps us improve the pc88 experience.
- Functional cookies: Remember your preferences such as notification settings, odds format, and display preferences so you do not need to re-configure them each visit.
- Targeting and marketing cookies: Used only where you have given explicit consent to receive personalised promotions. These cookies help us ensure you see relevant bonus offers rather than generic promotions.
8.2 Managing Cookies
You may manage cookie preferences through your browser settings. Most modern browsers allow you to block or delete cookies. Note that disabling strictly necessary cookies will impair core platform functionality. Disabling other cookie categories will not prevent you from using pc88 but may reduce the personalisation of your experience.
9 Data Security
pc88 implements a comprehensive set of technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, destruction, or alteration:
- TLS/SSL encryption: All data in transit between your device and pc88's servers is encrypted using Transport Layer Security (TLS). Look for the padlock icon in your browser address bar when using pc88.
- Encryption at rest: Sensitive data fields including passwords (stored as salted hashes) and payment references are encrypted in our database using industry-standard algorithms.
- Access controls: Internal access to personal data is strictly limited to authorised personnel who require it for their role. Access is granted on the principle of least privilege and is subject to regular audit.
- Intrusion detection: Our platform is continuously monitored for suspicious activity, including automated login attempts, unusual transaction patterns, and potential data exfiltration.
- Incident response: In the event of a confirmed data breach that is likely to result in risk to your rights or freedoms, pc88 will notify affected Players without undue delay and take immediate steps to contain and remediate the breach.
10 Data Retention
pc88 retains personal data for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected, plus any additional period required by applicable law or legitimate business need. The following retention guidelines apply:
| Data Category | Retention Period |
|---|---|
| Account registration and identity data | Duration of account plus 5 years after closure |
| Financial transaction records | 7 years from transaction date (AML compliance) |
| KYC verification documents | 5 years after account closure or last verification |
| Betting and gaming activity logs | Duration of account plus 3 years after closure |
| Customer support correspondence | 3 years from the date of the communication |
| Marketing consent records | Until consent is withdrawn, plus 1 year |
| Technical and usage logs | 13 months on a rolling basis |
Upon expiry of the applicable retention period, data is securely deleted or irreversibly anonymised so that it can no longer be associated with any individual Player.
11 Your Rights
As a Player whose personal data is processed by pc88, you hold the following rights with respect to that data. To exercise any of these rights, contact us at [email protected] with the subject line "Data Rights Request":
- Right of access: You may request a copy of the personal data pc88 holds about you, together with information about how it is used and with whom it is shared.
- 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. You may also update certain details directly via your account settings.
- Right to erasure ("right to be forgotten"): You may request deletion of your personal data where it is no longer necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, where you have withdrawn consent, or where you object to processing based on legitimate interest. Note that certain data may be retained where we have a legal obligation to do so.
- Right to restriction of processing: You may request that we restrict processing of your data — meaning we hold it but do not actively use it — in specific circumstances, such as while a dispute about accuracy is being resolved.
- Right to data portability: Where processing is based on your consent or the performance of a contract and is carried out by automated means, you may request a copy of your data in a structured, machine-readable format.
- Right to object: You have the right to object at any time to processing of your data based on legitimate interest, including profiling for marketing purposes. We will cease such processing unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds that override your interests.
- Right to withdraw consent: Where processing is based on your consent (e.g., receiving marketing emails), you may withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.
pc88 will respond to all data rights requests within 30 days of receipt. Where a request is complex or numerous, we may extend this period by a further 60 days, in which case we will notify you of the extension and the reason for it.
12 Children's Privacy
pc88 services are strictly intended for adults aged 21 years and above. We do not knowingly collect, process, or store personal data from individuals under the age of 21.
If pc88 becomes aware that a user under the age of 21 has created an account or submitted personal data, we will immediately close the account, delete all associated personal data, and return any deposits to the originating payment method. Age verification is a mandatory step in our KYC process for this reason.
If you have reason to believe that a minor has registered with pc88, please notify us immediately at [email protected] so that we can take prompt action.
13 Third-Party Links
The pc88 platform may contain references to or integrations with third-party services, including game studio environments operated by Pragmatic Play, Evolution Gaming, Spribe, and others. When you enter a game provided by a third-party studio, you are interacting with that studio's software environment, which is subject to its own privacy and data handling practices.
pc88 does not control and is not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party game providers, payment processors operating their own customer-facing interfaces, or any other external services. We encourage you to review the privacy documentation of any third-party service you interact with.
14 International Transfers
pc88 operates infrastructure and uses service providers that may be located outside of Bangladesh. Where personal data is transferred to a jurisdiction that may not provide the same level of data protection as Bangladesh, pc88 takes appropriate safeguards to ensure your data remains adequately protected. These safeguards may include contractual clauses requiring the recipient to apply data protection standards equivalent to those described in this Policy.
By using pc88, you acknowledge that your personal data may be processed in jurisdictions outside Bangladesh, subject to the protections described above.
15 Policy Changes
pc88 reserves the right to update or amend this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in our data practices, applicable law, or platform features. When material changes are made, we will notify registered Players via the email address associated with their account at least seven (7) days before the changes take effect.
The "Last Updated" date at the top of this document indicates when the current version was published. We recommend reviewing this Policy periodically to stay informed about how pc88 protects your data. Continued use of pc88 after a revised Policy takes effect constitutes your acceptance of the updated terms.
