6. Who We Share Your Data With

kt44 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data. We share your data only with the categories of third parties listed below, and only to the extent necessary for the stated purpose:

• Identity verification providers: Third-party KYC service providers who assist us in verifying the authenticity of identity documents and confirming that members meet our 21+ age requirement.
• Payment processors: Authorised payment gateway partners (including those facilitating bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay, Visa, and Mastercard transactions) who require certain data to process your financial transactions securely.
• Game content providers: Software studios such as Pragmatic Play, Evolution Gaming, NetEnt, Microgaming, Ezugi, and Spribe receive pseudonymised session data (e.g., player ID, stake, game round ID) to operate their games correctly within the kt44 environment. These providers do not receive your identity documents or full financial data.
• IT and cloud infrastructure providers: Hosting, database, and cybersecurity service providers who process data on our behalf under strict data processing agreements that prohibit them from using your data for their own purposes.
• Fraud prevention services: Third-party risk intelligence providers who help kt44 identify suspicious account activity, potential multi-accounting, and patterns associated with money laundering.

• Professional advisers: Our legal, accounting, and auditing advisers who require limited access to member data in order to provide professional services to kt44, subject to professional confidentiality obligations.

All third parties with whom we share personal data are subject to contractual data processing obligations and are required to implement appropriate technical and organisational security measures to protect your data.

7. International Data Transfers

Some of the third-party service providers used by kt44 — including identity verification providers, game content providers, and cloud infrastructure services — may process your data in countries outside Bangladesh. When data is transferred internationally, kt44 takes the following steps to ensure your data remains protected:

• We enter into appropriate data transfer agreements with the receiving party, incorporating standard contractual clauses or equivalent safeguards.
• We conduct due diligence on the data protection practices of international service providers before engaging them.
• We limit the data shared to the minimum necessary for the service being provided.

By using the kt44 platform, you acknowledge that your data may be transferred to and processed in countries outside Bangladesh for the purposes described in this policy, subject to the safeguards described above.

8. Data Retention

kt44 retains your personal data for no longer than is necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, taking into account applicable legal and regulatory retention requirements. The following retention schedule applies:

Data Category	Retention Period	Reason
Account registration data	Duration of membership + 5 years after closure	Legal compliance; dispute resolution
KYC identity documents	Duration of membership + 5 years after closure	Anti-money laundering obligations
Financial transaction records	7 years from transaction date	Financial and tax compliance
Betting and gaming history	Duration of membership + 3 years after closure	Dispute resolution; responsible gaming review
Customer support records	3 years from last interaction	Quality assurance; dispute resolution
Marketing preferences	Until opt-out, then deleted within 30 days	Consent-based processing
Technical logs (IP, session data)	13 months from collection	Fraud detection; security monitoring
Self-exclusion records	Minimum 7 years from exclusion date	Responsible gaming; legal obligation

When the applicable retention period expires, your data is securely deleted or anonymised so that it can no longer be associated with you as an individual.

9. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

The kt44 platform uses cookies and similar technologies (such as local storage and session storage) to operate the site correctly and to improve your experience. The categories of cookies we use are as follows:

9.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are essential for the kt44 platform to function. They enable core features such as user authentication, session management, security token validation, and fraud detection. Without these cookies, the platform cannot function correctly. These cookies cannot be disabled. Examples include: session ID cookie, CSRF protection token, authentication state cookie.

9.2 Functional Cookies

These cookies remember your preferences to personalise your experience — such as your preferred language, deposit method, and responsible gaming settings. Disabling functional cookies may result in some personalisation features not working correctly.

9.3 Analytics Cookies

kt44 uses first-party analytics to understand aggregate usage patterns — such as which pages are most visited, average session length, and common navigation paths. This data is collected in pseudonymised form and is used only to improve the platform. We do not use third-party advertising analytics platforms (such as Google Ads or Meta Pixel) on the kt44 platform.

9.4 What We Do Not Use

kt44 does not use:

• Third-party advertising cookies or retargeting pixels
• Cross-site tracking technologies
• Social media tracking buttons (Facebook Like, Twitter/X share, etc.)
• Fingerprinting or device-level tracking beyond what is necessary for fraud prevention

10. Security Measures

kt44 implements a comprehensive set of technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, destruction, or disclosure. Key security measures include:

• 256-bit SSL/TLS encryption for all data in transit between your device and the kt44 platform.
• Encryption at rest for sensitive data including identity documents, financial records, and account credentials stored on kt44 servers.
• Multi-factor authentication options available for all kt44 member accounts to add a second layer of login security.
• Role-based access controls ensuring that kt44 staff can only access member data that is necessary for their specific job function.
• Regular penetration testing and security audits conducted by independent security professionals to identify and remediate vulnerabilities.
• Intrusion detection and monitoring systems that operate continuously to identify and respond to anomalous activity on kt44 infrastructure.
• Secure data backup procedures to ensure that member data can be recovered in the event of a system failure, without compromising data integrity.
• Staff training on data privacy and security practices, with mandatory annual refresher training for all personnel with access to member data.

While kt44 takes every reasonable precaution to protect your data, no internet-based 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, kt44 will notify affected members promptly and take all necessary steps to mitigate any harm.

11. Your Rights

As a kt44 member, you have the following rights regarding your personal data. To exercise any of these rights, please submit a written request to [email protected] with the subject line "Data Rights Request — [your right]". We will respond within 30 days.

• Right of Access: You have the right to request a copy of the personal data kt44 holds about you, along with information about how it is processed.
• 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.
• Right to Erasure: In certain circumstances — such as when data is no longer necessary for the purpose it was collected, or where you withdraw consent — you may request that we delete your personal data. Note that legal retention obligations (see Section 8) may prevent full erasure in some cases.
• Right to Restrict Processing: You may request that we limit the processing of your data in certain circumstances — for example, while you contest the accuracy of data we hold about you.
• Right to Data Portability: Where processing is based on your consent or on a contract, you may request that we provide your personal data in a structured, machine-readable format so that you can transfer it to another service provider.
• Right to Object: You have the right to object to processing that is based on kt44's legitimate interests, including profiling for fraud prevention and responsible gaming purposes. We will honour such requests unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds that override your interests.
• Right to Withdraw Consent: Where we process your data based on your consent (e.g., for marketing communications), you may withdraw that consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.
• Right Not to Be Subject to Automated Decision-Making: You have the right to request human review of any significant decision made about you solely through automated processing (such as an automated account restriction triggered by fraud detection systems).

12. Children and Minors

The kt44 platform is strictly for adults aged 21 years and above. We do not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under the age of 21. Our registration process includes an age declaration, and we conduct identity verification checks to enforce this requirement.

If kt44 discovers that personal data has been collected from a person under the age of 21, we will immediately close the associated account, delete the collected data as far as legally permissible, void all bets and game activity, and return any deposited funds to the originating payment method.

If you believe that a minor has accessed the kt44 platform or submitted personal data to us, please report this immediately to [email protected] so that we can take swift action.

kt44 encourages parents and guardians to use parental control software to prevent minors from accessing online gambling platforms. Resources on responsible gambling and the protection of minors are available on our Responsible Gaming page.

13. Third-Party Links and Services

The kt44 platform does not contain links to external third-party websites. All links within the platform lead to pages within the kt44.io domain. However, certain game content delivered by third-party studios (Pragmatic Play, Evolution Gaming, NetEnt, Microgaming, Ezugi, Spribe, and others) is rendered within the kt44 environment via embedded frames. These game studios operate their own privacy and data handling practices for the game session data they receive.

kt44 is not responsible for the data practices of game content providers beyond the contractual obligations we impose on them as part of our licensing and distribution agreements. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of these studios if you have specific concerns about game-level data handling.

14. Changes to This Privacy Policy

kt44 reviews this Privacy Policy regularly and may update it from time to time to reflect changes in how we handle personal data, changes in applicable law, or changes in our business operations. When we make material changes to this policy, we will:

• Update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page and in the document header.
• Send an email notification to the address registered on your kt44 account at least 14 days before the changes take effect.
• Display a prominent notice on the kt44 platform homepage during the notice period.

Your continued use of the kt44 platform after a revised Privacy Policy takes effect constitutes your acceptance of the updated terms. If you do not agree with any material change, you have the right to close your account and withdraw your available balance before the change takes effect by contacting [email protected].

We recommend bookmarking this page and reviewing it periodically to stay informed about how kt44 protects your data.
