Privacy Policy — betwiner
At betwiner, protecting the personal data of our players in Bangladesh is a core responsibility, not an afterthought. This Privacy Policy explains exactly what data we collect, why we collect it, how we store and use it, and what rights you have over your own information.
How betwiner Protects Your Information
The cards below summarise our core privacy commitments. They are not a substitute for reading the full policy — the complete text below governs how we handle your personal data.
Minimal Data Collection
We collect only the personal information that is strictly necessary to operate your account, process payments in BDT, verify your identity, and comply with applicable anti-money laundering requirements. We do not collect data we do not need.
Encrypted Storage
All personal data stored on betwiner servers is encrypted at rest using AES-256 encryption. Sensitive fields such as passwords and payment method identifiers are additionally hashed using industry-standard one-way hashing algorithms.
No Data Sold to Third Parties
betwiner does not sell, rent, lease, or trade your personal data to any third party for their independent marketing or commercial purposes. Your information stays within the betwiner ecosystem and its verified service providers.
Access & Correction Rights
You can request a copy of the personal data betwiner holds about you at any time. If any information is inaccurate or out of date, you have the right to request a correction. Submit requests via email to our support team.
Transparent Cookie Use
We use cookies and similar tracking technologies solely to maintain your session, remember your preferences, and analyse site performance. We do not use third-party advertising cookies that track you across unrelated websites.
Right to Deletion
Subject to our legal obligations (including AML record-keeping requirements), you may request that betwiner delete the personal data we hold about you. We will process valid deletion requests within 30 days of receipt.
01 Information We Collect
betwiner collects personal information from you in the following ways: directly from you when you register an account or interact with the platform; automatically through your use of the site; and, in limited circumstances, from third-party identity verification or payment processing services. The categories of data we collect are described below.
1.1 Account Registration Data
When you create a betwiner account, we collect:
- Full legal name (as it appears on your National Identity Card or passport)
- Date of birth (to verify you are 18 years of age or older)
- Residential address in Bangladesh (city, district, full postal address)
- Email address
- Mobile phone number (linked to your bKash, Nagad, Rocket, or Upay account)
- Username and encrypted password
1.2 Identity Verification Data
To comply with our age verification and anti-money laundering obligations, we may request copies of identity documents including your National Identity Card (NID), passport, or birth certificate. These documents are processed securely and stored only for as long as required by applicable law and our internal compliance policies.
1.3 Financial Data
We collect transaction records associated with your account, including deposit amounts, withdrawal requests, payment method references (e.g., your bKash wallet number in truncated form), and account balance history. We do not store full card numbers — card transactions are handled by our PCI-DSS compliant payment processing partners who transmit only tokenised references to betwiner.
1.4 Technical & Usage Data
When you access betwiner, our servers automatically record certain technical data:
- IP address and approximate geolocation (country and city level)
- Device type, operating system, and browser version
- Pages visited, time spent on each page, and click-path data
- Session start and end timestamps (all times stored in BST, UTC+6)
- Referring URL (the site or link you came from before arriving at betwiner)
1.5 Communications Data
If you contact our support team by email or live chat, we retain records of those communications — including the content of your messages and our responses — for quality assurance and dispute resolution purposes.
02 How We Use Your Data
betwiner uses the personal data we collect for the following purposes. We will only use your data in ways that are consistent with the purpose for which it was originally collected, or in ways that are clearly related and reasonably expected by you.
| Purpose | Data Used |
|---|---|
| Creating and managing your player account | Name, email, phone number, date of birth, username |
| Verifying your identity and age (18+ check) | NID / passport copy, date of birth, address |
| Processing deposits and withdrawals in BDT | Payment method reference, transaction amounts, account balance |
| Preventing fraud and money laundering (AML compliance) | Identity documents, transaction history, IP address, device data |
| Providing customer support and resolving disputes | Account data, communication records, transaction history |
| Sending transactional notifications (deposit confirmations, withdrawal status) | Email address, phone number |
| Sending promotional communications (bonuses, offers) — with consent | Email address, phone number, betting activity summary |
| Improving platform performance and user experience | Usage data, session data, device/browser data |
| Enforcing our Terms & Conditions and responsible gaming obligations | All account data, betting activity, communication records |
We do not use your personal data to make automated decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects on you without human review. Automated fraud-detection systems may flag an account for review, but all resulting account actions (suspension, closure, withdrawal holds) are reviewed by a human compliance team member before being enacted.
03 Legal Basis for Processing
betwiner processes your personal data on the following legal bases:
- Contractual necessity: The majority of our data processing is necessary to perform the contract between you and betwiner — namely, to operate your account, process your bets, and handle your BDT deposits and withdrawals. Without this processing, we cannot provide our services.
- Legal obligation: Certain processing activities — particularly identity verification, age checks, and the retention of financial transaction records — are required by applicable anti-money laundering and age-verification obligations. We are legally required to carry out this processing regardless of your preferences.
- Legitimate interests: We process technical and usage data (IP addresses, session logs, device data) based on our legitimate interest in maintaining platform security, preventing fraud, and improving the quality of our services. We have balanced this interest against your privacy rights and determined it is appropriate.
- Consent: Where we send you marketing communications (promotional emails, SMS bonus notifications), we do so on the basis of your consent, which you provide during registration. You may withdraw this consent at any time by updating your communication preferences in your account settings or by emailing support@betwiner.
04 Cookies & Tracking Technologies
betwiner uses cookies and similar technologies (including local storage and session storage) to deliver and improve our service. Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit the platform.
4.1 Types of Cookies We Use
| Cookie Type | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| Essential Cookies | Maintain your login session, remember your language and currency preferences, ensure site security (CSRF protection) | Session / up to 30 days |
| Performance Cookies | Collect anonymised analytics data about how pages are used — page views, session duration, bounce rate. Used to improve platform performance. | Up to 12 months |
| Functional Cookies | Remember your betting preferences (e.g., default odds format, preferred deposit method) and personalise your dashboard view. | Up to 6 months |
4.2 What We Do Not Use
betwiner does not use third-party advertising cookies, retargeting pixels, or any tracking technology that follows you across websites unrelated to betwiner. We do not serve interest-based advertising, nor do we share your browsing behaviour with ad networks.
4.3 Managing Cookies
Essential cookies are required for the platform to function and cannot be disabled. You may disable performance and functional cookies through your browser settings. Please note that disabling functional cookies may cause some personalisation features (such as saved preferences) to stop working. Instructions for managing cookies are available in the help documentation for all major browsers including Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Samsung Internet.
05 Data Sharing & Disclosure
betwiner does not sell your personal data. We share personal data with third parties only in the limited circumstances described below, and only to the extent necessary for the stated purpose.
5.1 Service Providers
We share data with carefully selected third-party service providers who process data on our behalf under strict data processing agreements. These include:
- Payment processors: bKash, Nagad, Rocket (Dutch-Bangla Bank), Upay, and our card payment gateway partners receive the transaction data necessary to process your deposits and withdrawals. They do not receive data beyond what is required for the specific transaction.
- Identity verification providers: Third-party KYC (Know Your Customer) service providers who assist in verifying the authenticity of identity documents submitted during account registration or verification requests.
- Game studios: When you play a game powered by Pragmatic Play, Evolution Gaming, NetEnt, Microgaming, Spribe, Ezugi, or another studio, limited technical data (player session ID, stake amount, game result) is transmitted to the studio's servers to render the game and calculate outcomes. Studios do not receive your full name, address, or financial account details.
- Analytics providers: Anonymised usage data is processed by our analytics platform to help us understand site performance. This data does not contain personally identifiable information.
5.2 Legal Disclosures
betwiner may disclose personal data to law enforcement agencies, regulatory bodies, or courts if we are required to do so by applicable law, court order, or other legal process. We will notify you of any such disclosure to the extent we are legally permitted to do so.
5.3 Business Transfers
In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or part of betwiner's business, your personal data may be transferred to the successor entity as part of the transaction. We will notify you via email or an in-platform notice prior to any such transfer, and the successor entity will be bound by this Privacy Policy.
06 Data Retention
betwiner retains your personal data only for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected, or as required by law. The following retention periods apply:
| Data Category | Retention Period | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Account registration data | Duration of account + 5 years after closure | AML compliance and dispute resolution |
| Identity verification documents | Duration of account + 5 years after closure | Legal obligation (AML / KYC record-keeping) |
| Financial transaction records | Duration of account + 7 years after closure | Financial record-keeping obligations |
| Customer support communications | 3 years from date of communication | Dispute resolution and quality assurance |
| Technical / usage logs | 13 months from collection | Security monitoring and analytics |
| Marketing consent records | Until consent is withdrawn + 3 years | Proof of consent for compliance purposes |
Once a retention period has elapsed, personal data is securely deleted or irreversibly anonymised so that it can no longer be associated with an identifiable individual. Anonymised, aggregated data (such as site-wide traffic statistics) may be retained indefinitely as it no longer constitutes personal data.
07 Data Security
betwiner implements a comprehensive set of technical and organisational security measures designed to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, destruction, or disclosure. Key security measures include:
- SSL/TLS Encryption in Transit: All data transmitted between your browser or mobile device and the betwiner platform is encrypted using TLS 1.2 or higher. The padlock icon visible in your browser address bar confirms this protection is active.
- AES-256 Encryption at Rest: Personal data stored in our databases is encrypted at rest using AES-256 encryption, the same standard used by financial institutions worldwide.
- Password Hashing: Account passwords are never stored in plain text. They are processed using a one-way cryptographic hash function with a unique salt, meaning even internal staff cannot retrieve your password.
- Access Controls: Access to systems holding personal data is restricted on a strict need-to-know basis. Staff access is logged, regularly reviewed, and revoked immediately upon termination of employment or contract.
- Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): We encourage all players to enable 2FA on their betwiner account. 2FA adds a second layer of protection against unauthorised access even if your password is compromised.
- Penetration Testing: Our platform undergoes regular third-party security audits and penetration tests to identify and remediate vulnerabilities before they can be exploited.
Despite these measures, no online platform can guarantee absolute security. In the event of a data breach that is likely to result in a risk to your rights and freedoms, betwiner will notify affected users without undue delay and take all reasonable steps to mitigate the impact.
08 Your Privacy Rights
As a user of betwiner, you have the following rights in relation to the personal data we hold about you. To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at support@betwiner with the subject line "Privacy Rights Request — [Your Username]".
- Right of Access: You may request a copy of the personal data betwiner holds about you. We will provide this within 30 days of receiving your verified request, free of charge for the first request in any 12-month period.
- Right to Rectification: If any personal data we hold about you is inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to request that we correct it. You may also update basic account information (such as your email address or phone number) directly through your account settings dashboard.
- Right to Erasure: You may request that we delete your personal data. We will comply with valid deletion requests within 30 days, subject to our legal obligations to retain certain data (see Section 6 — Data Retention). Where deletion is not possible due to a legal obligation, we will restrict processing instead and inform you accordingly.
- Right to Restriction of Processing: In certain circumstances (for example, while a dispute about the accuracy of your data is being resolved), you may request that we temporarily restrict processing of your personal data rather than delete it.
- Right to Data Portability: You may request a copy of the personal data you provided to us in a commonly used, machine-readable format (such as CSV or JSON), where technically feasible.
- Right to Object to Marketing: You may opt out of receiving marketing communications from betwiner at any time by updating your notification preferences in your account settings, or by replying "UNSUBSCRIBE" to any marketing email. Transactional emails (security alerts, withdrawal confirmations) are not affected by this opt-out.
We aim to respond to all privacy rights requests within 30 calendar days. In complex cases we may extend this to 60 days, in which case we will notify you of the extension and the reason for it.
09 Children's Privacy
betwiner is strictly an adults-only platform. Our services are intended exclusively for individuals who are 18 years of age or older. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under the age of 18.
All account registrations require a confirmed date of birth, and we reserve the right to request documentary evidence of age at any point. Any account found to belong to a person under 18 will be closed immediately. Any deposits made by an underage user will be returned to the payment method used for deposit, and any winnings generated will be forfeited.
If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has registered an account on betwiner, please contact us immediately at support@betwiner. We take underage gambling very seriously and will act promptly to close the account and return any funds.
Protecting Young People: We encourage parents and guardians to use device-level parental controls and filtering tools to prevent minors from accessing online gambling platforms. If you believe a minor in your household has access to your betwiner account, please contact us immediately so we can help you secure it.

betwiner reserves the right to update or amend this Privacy Policy at any time. When we make material changes — meaning changes that significantly affect how we collect, use, or share your personal data — we will notify you by email to your registered address or via a prominent in-platform notification at your next login.
Non-material changes (such as correcting typographical errors, updating our contact email, or clarifying existing language without changing its substance) may be made without advance notice. All changes take effect from the date of publication on this page.
