6. Sharing Your Data with Third Parties

mc888 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to any third party for marketing or commercial purposes. We may share your data with carefully selected third parties in the following limited circumstances:

6.1 Payment Processors

To facilitate deposits and withdrawals, mc888 shares necessary transaction data with certified payment gateway partners who process bKash, Nagad, Rocket, and Upay transactions. These partners are contractually obligated to process your data solely for payment purposes and to maintain appropriate security standards.

6.2 KYC & Identity Verification Providers

mc888 uses third-party identity verification services to validate KYC documents and confirm player eligibility. These providers process your identity documents under strict data processing agreements and are not permitted to use your data for any purpose other than identity verification on our behalf.

6.3 Game Technology Providers

Some game providers — including Evolution Gaming, Pragmatic Play, NetEnt, Microgaming, Spribe, and Ezugi — may receive limited technical data (such as session tokens and pseudonymous player identifiers) that is necessary to deliver their games through the mc888 platform. These providers do not receive your full personal profile.

6.4 Legal & Regulatory Authorities

mc888 may disclose your personal data to law enforcement agencies, regulatory bodies, or other government authorities where required to do so by law, court order, or in connection with the investigation of suspected fraud, money laundering, or other criminal activity.

6.5 Business Transfers

In the event that mc888 undergoes a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or part of its assets, your personal data may be transferred to the acquiring entity as part of that transaction. We will notify you of any such transfer via email or a prominent notice on the platform prior to your data being transferred.

7. International Data Transfers

mc888 primarily processes and stores your personal data on servers located in secure data centres. In some cases, data may be transferred to or accessed from outside Bangladesh — for example, when using game technology platforms or KYC verification services that operate internationally.

Where such transfers occur, mc888 ensures that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your personal data to a standard consistent with this Privacy Policy, including contractual data protection clauses with all international data processors.

8. Cookies & Tracking Technologies

mc888 uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to deliver and improve the platform experience. Cookies are small text files stored on your device that help us recognise your browser, maintain your session, and understand how the platform is used.

8.1 Types of Cookies We Use

• Essential Cookies: Required for the platform to function correctly, including maintaining your login session and remembering your account preferences. These cannot be disabled without affecting platform functionality.
• Analytics Cookies: Used to collect aggregated, anonymised data about how players navigate and use the platform. This helps us identify performance bottlenecks and improve the user experience.
• Security Cookies: Used to detect and prevent fraudulent activity, such as identifying unusual login patterns or multiple accounts from the same device.
• Preference Cookies: Used to remember your display preferences, language settings, and notification choices across sessions.

8.2 Managing Cookies

You may control non-essential cookies through your browser settings. Most modern browsers allow you to block, delete, or receive warnings before cookies are stored. Please be aware that disabling essential cookies may impair your ability to log in or use core platform features. mc888 does not use third-party advertising cookies or cross-site tracking networks.

9. Data Security

mc888 takes the security of your personal data seriously and has implemented a range of technical and organisational measures to protect it against unauthorised access, loss, destruction, or alteration. These measures include:

• TLS/SSL encryption for all data transmitted between your device and mc888 servers.
• AES-256 encryption for sensitive data stored at rest, including KYC documents and payment identifiers.
• Role-based access controls ensuring that only authorised personnel can access personal data, and only to the extent necessary for their role.
• Regular security audits and penetration testing of the mc888 platform and supporting infrastructure.
• Multi-factor authentication (MFA) for internal systems that process player data.
• Intrusion detection and continuous monitoring of network activity for suspicious patterns.

Despite these measures, no online platform can guarantee absolute security. You are also responsible for keeping your account credentials secure and for logging out of your account when using shared devices.

10. Data Retention

mc888 retains your personal data for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, subject to any longer retention periods required by law. Our general retention guidelines are as follows:

• Active Account Data: Retained for the duration of your account's active status and for a minimum of five (5) years after account closure, to meet anti-money laundering and regulatory record-keeping requirements.
• KYC Documents: Retained for a minimum of five (5) years after the end of the customer relationship, as required by applicable AML legislation.
• Transaction Records: Retained for a minimum of five (5) years for financial audit and regulatory compliance purposes.
• Support Communications: Retained for three (3) years from the date of last interaction to support dispute resolution and service quality review.
• Technical & Analytics Data: Aggregated and anonymised after thirteen (13) months; raw technical logs are retained for up to twelve (12) months.
• Marketing Consent Records: Retained for three (3) years from the date consent was given or last renewed.

When personal data is no longer required, mc888 securely deletes or anonymises it in accordance with our internal data lifecycle management procedures.

11. Your Privacy Rights

As a player using the mc888 platform, you have the following rights in respect of the personal data we hold about you. To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at [email protected] with your account username and a description of your request. We will respond within 30 days.

• Right of Access: You have the right to request a copy of the personal data mc888 holds about you, together with information about how it is used and with whom it has been shared.
• Right to Rectification: If any personal data mc888 holds about you is inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to request that it be corrected.
• Right to Erasure: You may request that mc888 delete your personal data where it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, subject to our legal retention obligations.
• Right to Restrict Processing: You may request that mc888 limits the way it uses your personal data in certain circumstances — for example, while a correction request is being assessed.
• Right to Object: You have the right to object to processing based on mc888's legitimate interests, and to object at any time to the processing of your data for direct marketing purposes.
• Right to Data Portability: Where processing is based on your consent or on a contract, you may request that mc888 provides your personal data to you in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format.
• Right to Withdraw Consent: Where processing is based on your consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing that took place before withdrawal.

Please note that some of these rights are subject to limitations. For example, mc888 cannot delete data that it is legally required to retain, and we may need to verify your identity before fulfilling any data rights request.

12. Children's Privacy

The mc888 platform is strictly for adults aged 21 years and above. mc888 does not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under the age of 21. If we become aware that a player is under 21, the account will be immediately suspended and any data collected will be deleted as soon as reasonably practicable, except where retention is required by law.

If you believe that a minor has created an mc888 account or has provided personal data to us, please notify us immediately at [email protected] and we will take prompt action to investigate and resolve the matter.

13. Marketing Communications

mc888 may send you promotional emails, SMS messages, and in-platform notifications about bonuses, new games, cricket betting markets, seasonal offers (such as Eid promotions, BPL season specials, and T20 World Cup betting offers), and other mc888 news — but only where you have given your explicit consent to receive such communications.

You may opt out of marketing communications at any time by:

• Clicking the "unsubscribe" link in any mc888 marketing email.
• Adjusting your notification preferences in your mc888 account settings.
• Contacting mc888 support at [email protected] with the subject line "Marketing Opt-Out".

Please allow up to five (5) business days for your opt-out preference to take effect across all communication channels. Please note that opting out of marketing communications does not affect transactional or account-related communications (such as deposit confirmations, withdrawal notifications, or security alerts), which mc888 will continue to send as they are necessary for the operation of your account.
