• Incident Response: We maintain a documented data breach response plan. In the event of a security incident affecting your personal data, we will notify affected users promptly and take immediate remediation steps.

While we take every reasonable precaution to protect your data, no online service can guarantee absolute security. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials and should report any suspected unauthorized access to your account immediately at [email protected].

8. Data Retention

dpc88 retains your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. Our standard data retention periods are as follows:

• Active Account Data: Retained for the full duration of your account activity plus an additional five years following permanent account closure, in compliance with anti-money laundering record-keeping requirements.
• Transaction Records: Maintained for a minimum of seven years following the date of each transaction to satisfy tax, financial reporting, and regulatory obligations under Bangladesh law.
• KYC Verification Documents: Stored for five years following account closure or the end of the business relationship, whichever is later, as required by AML regulations.
• Customer Support Communications: Retained for three years following resolution of each inquiry or dispute to provide context for future interactions and protect both parties in legal proceedings.

Upon expiry of applicable retention periods, personal data is securely deleted or anonymized in accordance with our data disposal procedures. Physical documents are shredded, and digital data is overwritten using secure deletion methods that prevent recovery.

9. Your Privacy Rights

As a dpc88 player, you have the following rights with respect to your personal data. To exercise any of these rights, please contact our Data Protection team at [email protected] with the subject line "Privacy Rights Request":

• Right of Access: You may request a copy of the personal data we hold about you, including information on how it is used, stored, and shared. We will provide this information within 30 days of a valid request.
• Right to Rectification: If any of your personal data is inaccurate, incomplete, or outdated, you have the right to request correction. You can update most basic profile information directly through 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 it was collected, where you withdraw consent (for consent-based processing), or where processing is unlawful. This right is subject to our legal retention obligations — we cannot delete data we are legally required to keep.
• Right to Restrict Processing: You may request that we limit how we use your data in certain circumstances, such as while we verify the accuracy of information you have disputed.
• Right to Data Portability: For data processed based on your consent or contract performance, you may request a copy of your data in a structured, machine-readable format (such as CSV) suitable for transfer to another service provider.
• Right to Object: You may object to processing based on our legitimate interests, including direct marketing. Upon receiving a valid objection, we will stop the relevant processing unless we have compelling legitimate grounds that override your interests.
• Right to Withdraw Consent: Where processing is based on your consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out prior to withdrawal.

We will respond to all verified privacy rights requests within 30 calendar days. In complex cases requiring additional time, we will notify you of the delay and expected completion date. We may need to verify your identity before processing rights requests to ensure we are disclosing or modifying data only to the correct individual. Requests that are manifestly unfounded or excessive may be declined, in which case we will explain our reasons clearly.

10. Children's Privacy

The dpc88 Platform is strictly intended for adults aged 21 years and above. We do not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under the age of 21. If you are under 21, you are not permitted to create an account or use our services under any circumstances. If we become aware that personal data has been collected from a person under 21 years of age, we will immediately close the account, delete all associated personal data, void all wagers, and take appropriate steps to prevent future access. Parents and guardians are encouraged to monitor their children's online activity and use parental control software to prevent minors from accessing online gambling platforms. If you believe a minor has created an account or accessed our Platform, please contact us immediately at [email protected] so we can take prompt action.

11. International Data Transfers

dpc88 primarily serves players in Bangladesh and processes most data within secure regional data centers. However, due to the global nature of our technology infrastructure and third-party service providers, your personal data may occasionally be transferred to and processed in jurisdictions outside Bangladesh. When such transfers occur, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place including contractual data protection clauses with service providers, technical and organizational security measures equivalent to those applied within our core operations, and restrictions on data use to the specific purposes for which it was shared. We regularly review our international data transfer practices to ensure ongoing compliance with applicable data protection standards.

12. Changes to This Privacy Policy

dpc88 may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in our data processing practices, legal requirements, regulatory guidance, or service offerings. All updates will be posted on this page with a revised "Last Updated" date at the top of the document. For significant changes that materially affect how we process your personal data, we will provide prominent notice on our Website's homepage and send notification to your registered email address at least 14 days before the changes take effect, giving you the opportunity to review and, where applicable, withdraw consent before new practices apply. Your continued use of the Platform following the effective date of any updated Privacy Policy constitutes your acceptance of the changes.
