How 8mbt Protects Your Privacy

Six principles that guide how we handle your personal data every day.

Data Encrypted at Rest and in Transit

All personal data stored by 8mbt is encrypted. Every connection between your device and our servers uses TLS encryption, so your information is protected whether it's moving or sitting still.

We Never Sell Your Data

8mbt does not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to any third party for marketing purposes. Your data is used to operate your account and improve your experience — nothing else.

You Control Your Data

You have the right to access, correct, or request deletion of your personal data at any time. Submit a request via live chat or email and we will respond within 30 days.

Minimal Data Collection

8mbt only collects the data we actually need to operate your account, process payments, and comply with legal requirements. We do not collect data for the sake of it.

Strict Access Controls

Only authorised 8mbt staff with a legitimate need can access your personal data. Access is logged, monitored, and reviewed regularly to prevent misuse.

Breach Notification

In the unlikely event of a data breach that affects your personal information, 8mbt will notify you promptly and take immediate steps to contain and investigate the incident.

At 8mbt, we understand that privacy matters — especially when it comes to financial transactions and personal account information. We are committed to handling your data responsibly, transparently, and in line with applicable data protection standards.

By registering an account or using the 8mbt platform, you confirm that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with how we handle your data, please do not use the platform.

This policy should be read alongside the Terms and Conditions and the Responsible Gaming page, which together govern your use of 8mbt.

03 How We Collect Your Data

8mbt collects your personal data through the following channels:

  • Direct interactions: When you register an account, make a deposit or withdrawal, contact support, or update your account settings, you provide data directly to us.
  • Automated technologies: When you use the 8mbt platform, we automatically collect technical and usage data through cookies, server logs, and similar technologies.
  • Payment processors: When you transact via bKash, Nagad, or Rocket, we receive confirmation data from those providers to verify and record your transaction.
  • Identity verification services: If we request identity verification, we may use a third-party verification service that processes your identity documents on our behalf.

04 How We Use Your Data

8mbt uses your personal data only for legitimate purposes directly related to operating the platform and serving you as a player. Specifically, we use your data to:

8mbt does not use your personal data for automated decision-making that produces legal or similarly significant effects without human review.

06 Sharing Your Data

8mbt does not sell your personal data. We share your data only in the following limited circumstances, and only to the extent necessary:

  • Payment processors: bKash, Nagad, and Rocket receive the transaction data necessary to process your deposits and withdrawals. These providers operate under their own privacy policies.
  • Identity verification providers: If you are asked to verify your identity, your documents may be processed by a third-party verification service acting as our data processor.
  • IT and infrastructure providers: We use trusted third-party providers for hosting, security monitoring, and platform infrastructure. These providers are contractually bound to protect your data.
  • Legal and regulatory authorities: We may disclose your data to law enforcement, regulators, or courts where required by law or to protect the rights and safety of 8mbt and its players.
  • Business transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your data may be transferred to the acquiring entity, subject to equivalent privacy protections.

8mbt will never share your personal data with advertisers, data brokers, or any third party for commercial marketing purposes without your explicit consent.

07 Data Retention

8mbt retains your personal data for as long as your account is active and for a period after closure as required by law or legitimate business need. Specific retention periods include:

  • Account and identity data is retained for a minimum of five years after account closure to comply with anti-money laundering regulations.
  • Transaction records are retained for a minimum of five years from the date of the transaction.
  • Customer support communications are retained for two years from the date of the interaction.
  • Technical and usage logs are retained for up to 12 months for security and fraud prevention purposes.

Once the applicable retention period has expired, your data is securely deleted or anonymised so that it can no longer be linked to you.

08 Cookies and Tracking Technologies

8mbt uses cookies and similar technologies to operate the platform, remember your preferences, and analyse how the platform is used. The types of cookies we use include:

  • Essential cookies: Required for the platform to function. These include session cookies that keep you logged in and security cookies that protect against fraud. These cannot be disabled.

09 Your Privacy Rights

As an 8mbt player, you have the following rights over your personal data. To exercise any of these rights, contact our support team via live chat or email at [email protected].

10 Security Measures

8mbt takes the security of your personal data seriously. We implement a range of technical and organisational measures to protect your data against unauthorised access, loss, or misuse. These include:

  • TLS encryption for all data transmitted between your device and our servers.
  • Encryption of sensitive data stored in our databases.
  • Role-based access controls limiting staff access to personal data on a need-to-know basis.
  • Regular security audits and penetration testing of our platform infrastructure.
  • Two-factor authentication options for player accounts.
  • Continuous monitoring for suspicious activity and automated fraud detection systems.

While we take every reasonable precaution, no online platform can guarantee absolute security. You also play a role in keeping your account safe — use a strong, unique password and never share your login credentials with anyone.

11 Minors

The 8mbt platform is strictly for players aged 18 and above. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under the age of 18. If we become aware that a minor has registered an account or provided personal data, we will close the account immediately and delete the associated data.

If you believe a minor has registered on 8mbt, please contact us immediately at [email protected] so we can investigate and take appropriate action.

Parents and guardians are encouraged to use parental control tools to prevent minors from accessing online gaming platforms.

12 Changes to This Policy

8mbt may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, legal requirements, or platform features. When we make changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page.

For significant changes that materially affect how we use your data, we will notify you via your registered email address or through a notice on the platform before the changes take effect. Continued use of 8mbt after any update constitutes your acceptance of the revised policy.
