Various types of information are collected from the moment you create an account at 8889 through your ongoing use of the service. This falls into two categories: what you provide directly, and what is collected automatically as you use the platform.
Information You Provide Directly:
- Identity Information: Full name, date of birth, National ID or passport number. These are required for the identity verification (KYC) process.
- Contact Information: Mobile number and email address. Used to secure your account and send important notifications.
- Payment Information: bKash/Nagad/Rocket number or bank account details — required for deposits and withdrawals.
- Security Information: Password (stored in encrypted form) and two-factor authentication details.
Information Collected Automatically:
- Device Information: Browser type, operating system, and device ID — collected for security monitoring.
- Log Data: Login timestamp, IP address, and session duration — used to detect unusual activity.
- Usage Type: Pages visited, time spent, and features used — this data is analyzed to improve the platform.
8889 never permanently stores a full image of your identity document on its servers. Once verification is complete, scanned copies are securely deleted.
8889 uses the data it collects solely for specific, legitimate purposes. No information is used in ways unrelated to those purposes.

8889 never sells your data to market research companies, shares it with third parties for advertising, or uses it for irrelevant profiling.
8889 does not share personal information with third parties as a matter of policy. However, there are a limited number of situations where sharing may be necessary — and you have the right to know what those are.
- Payment Processors: Minimal information is shared with bKash, Nagad, Rocket, or your bank solely to process transactions. This is used for payment verification purposes only.
- Identity Verification Service: Minimal data may be shared with licensed verification agencies for the KYC process.
- Legal Obligations: We may be required to share information in response to a court order or lawful request from a government authority. In such cases, we will notify you to the extent permitted.
- Technical Service Providers: We partner with trusted technology providers for cloud hosting and security services, and they are contractually required to comply with our privacy policy.
- Business Restructuring: In the event of an ownership change or merger at 8889, users will be notified in advance and the protection of their data will be guaranteed.
If we ever need to share your information for any reason not listed above, we will ask for your permission first.
8889 uses multiple layers of security to protect your data, with safeguards in place at both the technical and administrative level.
- Transport Layer Security (TLS 1.3): All data transmitted between your browser or app and our servers is encrypted. Even if intercepted, it cannot be read.
- Password Hashing: Your password is never stored in plain text. It is hashed using the bcrypt algorithm — not even 8889 staff can see your password.
- Database Encryption: Sensitive data stored on our servers — including payment details and national ID information — is encrypted separately.
- Access Control: 8889 staff can only access the data required for their specific role. All access is logged.
- Brute-Force Protection: Entering an incorrect password too many times will temporarily lock your account.
- Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): Enabling 2FA on your account means that even if your password is compromised, no one can access your account without the second factor.
Penetration testing and vulnerability assessments are conducted every six months by third-party security specialists. Any vulnerabilities found are resolved within 72 hours.
If you suspect a security issue, contact support@8889.world immediately. A prompt investigation and response will follow.
8889 does not retain any data longer than necessary. A separate retention period is defined for each category of information.
- Account Details: For the duration of account activity and up to 5 years after closure, as required by financial regulatory authorities.
- Transaction History: 7 years. This is mandatory to comply with financial regulations.
- Betting History: 3 years. Retained as evidence for dispute resolution.
- Login Logs & IP Data: 1 year. Retained for security investigation purposes.
- ID Scan: Deleted within 30 days of completed verification.
- Cookies & Browsing Data: Typically 30–90 days, varying by data type.
Once the retention period expires, data is automatically deleted or anonymised so that no individual can be identified.
8889's Privacy Policy follows international standards. You have certain fundamental rights over your personal data, and 8889 respects those rights.
- Right to Access: You can request to know what information we hold about you. We will respond within 30 days.

You can disable cookies through your browser settings, but turning off essential cookies will log you out. 8889's cookies do not share data with any third-party advertising networks.

What Makes 8889's Privacy Policy Different?
Many online platforms write their privacy policies in language so complex that ordinary users cannot understand what is actually being said. From the start, 8889 made the decision to write this policy in clear, straightforward terms.
For most betting users in Bangladesh, reading lengthy legal documents written in English can be challenging. That's why 8889's Privacy Policy is written in Bengali and in plain language — so you can truly understand what we do with your information.
8889 believes transparency is the foundation of trust. It's hard to trust a platform when you don't know where your data goes — which is why we've laid everything out openly on this page.
As part of its international gaming license, 8889 undergoes regular privacy audits conducted by third-party experts who verify that we practice what we preach. This process ensures our accountability and helps maintain user trust.
