Introduction
9kboss operates Bangladesh's leading online casino and sports betting platform at 9kboss.biz. In the course of providing our services — including account registration, game play, deposits and withdrawals in Bangladeshi Taka, sports betting, customer support, and promotional activities — we necessarily collect and process certain personal information about our Members.
This Privacy Policy describes what personal data we collect, why we collect it, how we use it, how long we keep it, who we share it with, and what rights you have in relation to your personal data. We have written this policy in plain English so that it is accessible and understandable to our Members across Bangladesh, including players in Dhaka, Chittagong, Sylhet, Khulna, Rajshahi, Barisal, Rangpur, Mymensingh, and Cox's Bazar.
9kboss is committed to data protection principles including lawfulness, fairness, transparency, data minimisation, accuracy, storage limitation, integrity, confidentiality, and accountability. We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to third parties for their own marketing purposes — under any circumstances.
