aku999 Privacy Policy
Your privacy matters to us. This Privacy Policy explains exactly what personal data aku999 collects, why we collect it, how we use and protect it, and what rights you hold as a member of our platform.
Introduction
This Privacy Policy ("Policy") describes how aku999 ("we", "us", "our", or the "Platform") collects, processes, stores, and shares personal data when you visit our website, register an account, make a deposit, place a wager, or otherwise interact with any part of the aku999 service. This Policy applies to all members, visitors, and any other individuals whose personal data we handle in connection with the Platform.
aku999 is committed to handling your personal data with care, transparency, and security. We collect only what is necessary, retain it only for as long as is required, and never sell it to third parties for commercial marketing purposes. By accessing and using the aku999 Platform, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy and consent to the data processing activities described herein.
This Policy should be read alongside our Terms & Conditions, which govern your overall use of the aku999 Platform. If you have any questions about how we handle your personal data, you may contact us at [email protected] (plain text only — not a clickable link).

1. Personal Data We Collect

2. How We Use Your Personal Data
aku999 uses the personal data it collects for clearly defined, legitimate purposes. We do not use your data in ways that are incompatible with the purposes listed below. The primary purposes for which we process your personal data are as follows.
3. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
aku999 uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to operate core Platform functions, maintain your login session, and analyse how members interact with the site. A cookie is a small text file placed on your device by your web browser when you visit the Platform. Cookies do not contain executable code and cannot access other data stored on your device.
3.1 Essential Cookies
These cookies are strictly necessary for the Platform to function. They maintain your authenticated session, remember your language and currency preferences, and protect against cross-site request forgery. Essential cookies cannot be disabled without preventing core Platform features from working correctly.
3.2 Analytics Cookies
We use first-party analytics to understand aggregated usage patterns on the Platform — for example, which game categories are most popular with members from Dhaka, Chittagong, Sylhet, and other cities across Bangladesh. This data is anonymised before analysis and is not used to identify individual members.
3.3 Managing Cookies
You may configure your browser to refuse or delete cookies. Note that disabling essential cookies will impair your ability to log in and use the Platform. Instructions for managing cookies are available in your browser's help documentation. Continued use of the aku999 Platform without adjusting your browser settings constitutes acceptance of our use of cookies as described above.
4. Data Sharing and Third Parties
aku999 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 each purpose.
Circumstances Under Which We Share Data
- Payment service providers — bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay, and our banking partners receive the minimum data required to process your deposit or withdrawal transaction in BDT.
- Identity verification services — Third-party KYC providers receive copies of the identity documents you submit so that they can verify your identity against authoritative records.
- Game software providers — Providers such as Pragmatic Play, Evolution Gaming, NetEnt, Microgaming, Spribe, and Ezugi may receive a pseudonymous session identifier to support the delivery and technical integrity of their games on our Platform.
- Fraud and AML screening services — Transaction data may be shared with screening providers to detect patterns associated with money laundering, fraud, or other prohibited conduct.
- Legal and regulatory authorities — We will disclose personal data to law enforcement, courts, or regulatory bodies where we are legally required to do so or where disclosure is necessary to protect the safety and rights of our members.
- Business successors — In the event of a merger, acquisition, or transfer of the aku999 business, member data may be transferred to the successor entity, subject to equivalent data protection commitments.
We do not share your personal data with advertisers, data brokers, social media networks, or any other commercial third party for marketing purposes. If you receive unsolicited communications purportedly from aku999 through an unfamiliar channel, please contact us immediately at [email protected] so we can investigate.
5. Data Retention
aku999 retains personal data only for as long as it is required to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected, or for as long as we have a legitimate legal or operational reason to keep it. The table below summarises our standard retention periods by data category.
When personal data is no longer required, aku999 will securely delete or irreversibly anonymise it so that it can no longer be associated with you as an individual.
6. Your Data Rights
As a member of the aku999 Platform, you hold the following rights in relation to your personal data. To exercise any of these rights, contact our support team at [email protected] with your registered account username and a clear description of your request. We will respond within 30 days.
- Right of Access: You may request a copy of the personal data we hold about you. We will provide this in a readable format within 30 days of receiving your request.
- Right to Rectification: If any personal data we hold about you is inaccurate or incomplete, you may ask us to correct it. We will action valid correction requests promptly.
- Right to Erasure: You may ask us to delete your personal data where it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected. Note that we may be unable to delete certain data where retention is required by law or where an active self-exclusion order is in place.
- Right to Restrict Processing: You may ask us to pause processing of your personal data in certain circumstances — for example, while a dispute about its accuracy is being resolved.
- Right to Data Portability: Where technically feasible, 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 may object to our processing of your personal data where that processing is based on our legitimate interests. We will consider your objection and cease processing unless we have compelling legitimate grounds to continue.
- Right to Withdraw Consent: Where our processing of your data is based on your consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out prior to withdrawal.
7. Data Security
aku999 implements a range of technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, alteration, or disclosure. These measures include, but are not limited to, the following.
7.1 Encryption in Transit
All data exchanged between your browser or mobile device and the aku999 Platform is encrypted using TLS (Transport Layer Security). You can confirm this by checking for the padlock icon in your browser's address bar when visiting the aku999 site.
7.2 Encryption at Rest
Sensitive personal data — including identity documents and payment details — is encrypted at rest in our database systems. Encryption keys are managed separately from the encrypted data and are rotated on a regular schedule.
7.3 Access Controls
Access to personal data within aku999's internal systems is restricted to staff members who require it to perform their job functions. All staff with access to personal data receive data protection training and are bound by confidentiality obligations. Access privileges are reviewed and updated whenever a team member's role changes.
7.4 Incident Response
aku999 maintains an incident response procedure for data security events. In the event of a data breach that is likely to result in a risk to your rights and freedoms, we will notify affected members without undue delay and will take immediate steps to contain the breach and prevent recurrence.
Your role in security: While aku999 implements robust security measures on the Platform side, you are responsible for keeping your account credentials — including your password and any one-time passcodes sent to your registered mobile number — confidential. Do not share your login details with anyone. If you suspect your account has been accessed without your authorisation, contact support at [email protected] immediately.
8. Minors and Age Verification
aku999 does not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under the age of 21. The Platform is strictly for adults aged 21 and above. During the registration process, we collect your date of birth and may require supporting documentation to confirm your age. Where we discover or have reason to believe that an account has been created by a person under 21, we will close that account immediately, delete the associated personal data to the extent permitted by law, and return any real-money balance to the original funding source.
If you are a parent or guardian and believe that a person under 21 in your household has registered on the aku999 Platform, please contact us at [email protected] so that we can investigate and take appropriate action. We also recommend the use of parental control software on shared devices to prevent access to online gambling platforms by minors.
9. Changes to This Privacy Policy
aku999 may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our data processing practices, legal obligations, or the services we offer. When we make material changes to this Policy, we will notify active members via a notice displayed on the Platform or through a message to your registered mobile number or email address. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page will be revised accordingly.
We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically. Continued use of the aku999 Platform after a revised Policy has been published constitutes your acceptance of the updated terms. If you do not agree with any changes, you should cease using the Platform and contact our support team to close your account.
