At basar8, your privacy is not a footnote — it is a foundation. This Privacy Policy explains exactly what personal data we collect from players in Bangladesh, why we collect it, how it is stored and protected, who it may be shared with, and what rights you hold over your own information.
Six principles that guide every data decision we make on the basar8 platform.
Every page, every basar8 Login session, every BDT deposit and withdrawal transaction is transmitted over SSL-encrypted connections. Your personal and financial data is never sent or received in plain text under any circumstance.
Personal data collected during registration and verification is stored on secured servers with restricted access controls. Only authorised basar8 personnel with a specific operational need may access stored player data, and all access is logged and audited.
basar8 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to third-party marketing organisations. Data sharing with external parties is limited strictly to service providers who are contractually required to protect it — such as payment processors like bKash and Nagad and identity verification partners.
You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal data at any time by contacting basar8 support. Requests are acknowledged within five business days and actioned as promptly as operationally possible within the bounds of our legal obligations.
basar8 collects only the data that is genuinely necessary to provide the service, verify your identity, process BDT transactions via bKash, Nagad, or Rocket, and comply with anti-money laundering obligations. We do not collect data for its own sake.
basar8 uses session cookies to keep you logged in and performance cookies to improve the platform experience. We do not use third-party advertising cookies to build cross-site behavioural profiles. Our cookie practices are described fully in Section 7 of this policy.
This Privacy Policy is issued by basar8, the operator of the online casino and sports betting platform accessible at basar8.net (hereinafter "basar8", "we", "us", or "our"). basar8 is the data controller responsible for the personal information collected through this platform.
Our platform is designed specifically for adult players based in Bangladesh, offering cricket betting, live casino games, slots, and BDT payment options via bKash, Nagad, Rocket, and other local providers. In operating this service, we necessarily collect and process certain personal data about our registered players and site visitors.
This Privacy Policy explains the full scope of our data practices in plain, accessible English. It forms part of our overall Terms and Conditions and should be read alongside that document. If you have any questions about how basar8 handles your data, please contact our support team as described in Section 13.
basar8 collects personal data through several channels: directly from you when you register and use the platform, automatically when you browse or interact with the site, and in limited cases from third-party verification partners. The categories of data we collect are set out below.

You may opt out of marketing communications at any time by updating your preferences in Account Settings or by contacting support.
Every instance of personal data processing at basar8 rests on one of the following legal bases:
basar8 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 specific purpose.
To process BDT deposits and withdrawals, we share relevant transaction data with your chosen payment provider — for example, bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay, Dutch-Bangla Bank, or BRAC Bank. Each of these providers operates under its own privacy policy and data protection obligations. basar8 is not responsible for the data practices of third-party payment processors once data has been transmitted to them for the purpose of completing a transaction.
Where automated identity verification is used as part of the account opening or withdrawal process, we may share identity document images and personal details with a contracted third-party verification service provider. Such providers are bound by contractual data processing agreements requiring them to protect your data and use it only for the purpose of verification.
Games provided on the basar8 platform by third-party studios — including Evolution Gaming, Pragmatic Play, NetEnt, Microgaming, Ezugi, and Spribe — may receive a player session token and anonymised player identifier to enable gameplay. These providers do not receive your full name, contact details, or payment information.
basar8 may be required to disclose personal data to law enforcement authorities, financial intelligence units, or other government bodies where required by applicable law or by a valid legal order. In such cases, basar8 will disclose only the minimum amount of data necessary to comply with the requirement and, where legally permissible, will notify the affected player.
In the event that basar8 undergoes a merger, acquisition, or transfer of all or substantially all of its assets, your personal data may be transferred to the acquiring entity as part of that transaction. You will be notified of any such transfer and the identity of the new data controller prior to the transfer taking effect.
basar8 retains personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected, subject to the following minimum and maximum retention periods:
| Data Category | Retention Period | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Account registration data | Duration of account + 5 years post-closure | Legal obligation, fraud prevention |
| Identity verification documents | Duration of account + 5 years post-closure | Anti-money laundering compliance |
| Financial transaction records | 7 years from transaction date | Statutory financial record-keeping |
| Gameplay and betting history | Duration of account + 2 years post-closure | Dispute resolution, responsible gaming audit |
| Customer support communications | 3 years from date of last interaction | Service improvement, dispute records |
| Technical and device logs | 12 months from collection date | Security monitoring, fraud detection |
| Marketing consent records | Until consent is withdrawn + 2 years | Consent audit trail |
Upon expiry of the relevant retention period, personal data is securely deleted or anonymised such that it can no longer be attributed to any individual player. Anonymised aggregated data (for example, site-wide traffic statistics) may be retained indefinitely for analytical purposes.
basar8 uses cookies — small text files stored on your device — and similar tracking technologies to operate and improve the platform. The following categories of cookies are used on basar8.net:
These cookies are strictly necessary for the basar8 platform to function. They include session authentication cookies that keep you logged in after basar8 Login, security tokens that protect against cross-site request forgery, and load-balancing cookies that ensure stable server connections. Essential cookies cannot be disabled without making the site non-functional.
basar8 uses anonymised analytics cookies to understand how players navigate the platform — which pages are most visited, where users encounter friction, and how the mobile experience differs from desktop. This data is used solely to improve the platform. No personally identifiable information is attached to analytics cookies.
Functional cookies remember your preferences — such as your preferred language setting (English) and your last-used payment method — so that you do not need to re-enter this information on every visit.
basar8 does not use third-party advertising or retargeting cookies. We do not allow advertising networks to place tracking cookies on basar8.net. You will not see basar8 advertisements following you across the web as a result of visiting our platform.

basar8 takes the security of your personal data seriously and implements technical and organisational measures appropriate to the risk level of the data we process. The key security measures in place on the basar8 platform include:
While basar8 takes all reasonable precautions, no internet-based platform can guarantee absolute security. You can significantly reduce the risk to your account by using a strong, unique password for basar8 Login, enabling two-step verification, and never sharing your credentials with any third party.
The basar8 platform is strictly intended for adults aged 18 and above. basar8 does not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under the age of 18. If we become aware that an account has been created by or on behalf of a minor, we will immediately suspend the account, delete any associated personal data to the extent permitted by our legal obligations, and report the matter to the relevant authorities where required.
If you are a parent or guardian and believe that a minor in your care has registered with basar8, please contact our support team immediately via live chat or email at support at basar8.net. We will investigate and take appropriate action as a matter of priority.
The basar8 platform may contain references to third-party services — for example, game providers such as Pragmatic Play or Evolution Gaming — whose own platforms operate under separate privacy policies. basar8 is not responsible for the privacy practices or content of any third-party platform. When you interact with a third-party game provider's live interface, you are subject to that provider's own data handling practices in addition to this policy.
We encourage all players to review the privacy policies of any third-party services they interact with, including payment providers such as bKash, Nagad, and Rocket. Links to or references from basar8 do not imply basar8's endorsement of the third party's privacy practices.
basar8 reserves the right to update or amend this Privacy Policy at any time. Changes will be posted on this page with a revised "Last Updated" date at the top. For significant changes — particularly those that affect how we use your personal data or your data rights — we will notify registered players via their account email address or via a notification displayed upon basar8 Login, with a minimum of seven days' notice before the changes take effect.
Your continued use of the basar8 platform following the effective date of any revised Privacy Policy constitutes your acceptance of the updated terms. If you do not agree with any changes, you should cease using the platform and may request account closure in accordance with the Terms and Conditions.
We recommend that players review this page periodically to remain informed of how basar8 manages personal data. All previous versions of this policy are available from basar8 support upon written request.
