299bit Privacy Policy

Your privacy matters to us. This page explains exactly what data 299bit collects, why we collect it, how we protect it, and what rights you have over your personal information.

How 299bit Handles Your Data

Six principles that guide every privacy decision we make at 299bit.

Encrypted Storage

All personal data stored by 299bit is encrypted at rest using AES-256. Your information is never stored in plain text on our servers.

No Data Selling

299bit does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to any third party for marketing or commercial purposes. Full stop.

Your Data, Your Control

You can request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal data at any time by contacting 299bit support.

SSL Everywhere

Every connection to 299bit — website and app — is protected by TLS encryption. Your data is never transmitted in the clear.

Minimal Sharing

We only share your data with payment processors and identity verification providers where strictly necessary to operate the platform.

Defined Retention

299bit keeps your data only as long as necessary. Once your account is closed and legal retention periods expire, your data is deleted.

01 Who We Are

299bit is an online gaming platform operating at 299bit.vip, serving players primarily in Bangladesh. When this Privacy Policy refers to "299bit", "we", "us", or "our", it means the 299bit platform and the team responsible for operating it.

This Privacy Policy explains how 299bit collects, uses, stores, and protects the personal data of players and visitors who use the 299bit website, mobile application, and related services. It also explains your rights in relation to your personal data and how to exercise them.

By registering an account at 299bit or using any part of the platform, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with how 299bit handles personal data, please do not use the platform.

Questions about this Privacy Policy? Contact us at [email protected] before registering. We are happy to explain anything in plain language.

02 Data We Collect

299bit collects personal data in several ways — directly from you when you register or use the platform, automatically through your device and browser, and from third-party providers involved in payment processing and identity verification.

Data You Provide Directly

  • Full legal name
  • Date of birth
  • Email address
  • Phone number (used for bKash/Nagad verification)
  • Residential address
  • National ID number or passport number (for KYC verification)
  • Payment account details (bKash number, Nagad number, bank account)
  • Username and password (password stored as a hashed value only)
  • Communications you send to 299bit support

Data Collected Automatically

  • IP address and approximate geographic location
  • Device type, operating system, and browser version
  • Pages visited on the 299bit website and time spent on each page
  • Games played, bet amounts, and session duration
  • Login timestamps and session activity logs
  • Cookie and tracking data (see Section 6)

Data from Third Parties

When you make a deposit or withdrawal via bKash, Nagad, or another payment provider, 299bit receives transaction confirmation data from that provider. When you complete KYC verification, 299bit receives identity verification results from our verification partner. 299bit does not receive your full payment credentials from these providers.

03 How We Use Your Data

299bit uses the personal data we collect for specific, legitimate purposes. We do not use your data for any purpose beyond what is described in this Privacy Policy without first obtaining your consent.

Purpose Data Used
Account registration and management Name, email, phone, date of birth, password
Identity verification (KYC) Name, date of birth, ID number, address
Processing deposits and withdrawals Payment account details, transaction history
Providing and improving games and platform features Game activity, session data, device information
Customer support Account details, support communications
Fraud prevention and security monitoring IP address, login logs, device data, transaction data
Responsible gaming compliance Betting history, session duration, deposit patterns
Marketing communications (with consent) Email address, phone number, game preferences
Legal and regulatory compliance All data categories as required by applicable law

299bit does not use automated decision-making or profiling in ways that produce legal or similarly significant effects on players, except where required for fraud prevention or regulatory compliance.

04 Legal Basis for Processing

299bit processes your personal data on the following legal grounds:

  • Contract performance: Processing your registration data, payment data, and game activity data is necessary to provide the 299bit service you signed up for.
  • Legal obligation: KYC verification, anti-money laundering checks, and certain data retention requirements are legally mandated.
  • Legitimate interests: Fraud prevention, platform security, and improving the 299bit service are legitimate interests that require some data processing.
  • Consent: Marketing communications and non-essential cookies are processed only with your explicit consent, which you can withdraw at any time.

05 Data Sharing

299bit does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data. We share data only in the limited circumstances described below, and only to the extent necessary for each purpose.

Payment Processors

To process deposits and withdrawals, 299bit shares necessary transaction data with bKash, Nagad, Rocket, and partner banks. These providers receive only the data required to complete the transaction and are bound by their own privacy obligations.

Identity Verification Providers

To complete KYC verification, 299bit shares identity documents and personal details with our verification partner. This partner processes data solely for the purpose of verifying your identity and is contractually prohibited from using it for any other purpose.

Legal and Regulatory Authorities

299bit may disclose personal data to law enforcement agencies, regulatory bodies, or courts where required by applicable law or in response to a valid legal request. We will notify you of such disclosures where legally permitted to do so.

Service Providers

299bit uses a small number of trusted third-party service providers for functions such as cloud hosting, email delivery, and customer support tooling. These providers act as data processors on our behalf and are contractually required to handle your data securely and only as instructed by 299bit.

299bit will never share your personal data with advertisers, data brokers, or any third party for commercial purposes without your explicit consent.

06 Cookies & Tracking

299bit uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on the website and mobile app. Cookies are small text files stored on your device that help us recognise you, remember your preferences, and understand how you use the platform.

Types of Cookies We Use

  • Essential cookies: Required for the platform to function. These include session cookies that keep you logged in and security cookies that protect against fraud. These cannot be disabled.
  • Functional cookies: Remember your preferences such as language settings and display options. These improve your experience but are not strictly necessary.
  • Analytics cookies: Help us understand how players use 299bit — which pages are visited most, where players drop off, and how the platform can be improved. Data collected is aggregated and anonymised where possible.
  • Marketing cookies: Used only with your consent to deliver relevant promotions and offers. You can opt out of marketing cookies at any time through your account settings.

Managing Cookies

You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings or through the 299bit cookie preference centre. Disabling essential cookies will affect your ability to use the platform. Disabling analytics or marketing cookies will not affect your ability to play games or make transactions.

299bit does not use third-party advertising cookies or allow external ad networks to track you across other websites via the 299bit platform.

07 Data Security

299bit takes the security of your personal data seriously. We implement a range of technical and organisational measures to protect your data against unauthorised access, loss, alteration, or disclosure.

  • All data transmitted between your device and 299bit is encrypted using TLS 1.2 or higher.
  • Personal data stored on 299bit servers is encrypted at rest using AES-256 encryption.
  • Passwords are stored as salted hashes — 299bit staff cannot see your password in plain text.
  • Access to personal data within 299bit is restricted to staff who need it to perform their job functions.
  • 299bit conducts regular security audits and vulnerability assessments of the platform.
  • Two-factor authentication is available for all player accounts and is mandatory for staff accounts.

Despite these measures, no online platform can guarantee absolute security. If you suspect that your 299bit account has been compromised, contact support immediately at [email protected]. In the event of a data breach that affects your personal data, 299bit will notify you as required by applicable law.

08 Data Retention

299bit retains your personal data for as long as your account is active and for a defined period after account closure, as required by law or legitimate business need.

Data Category Retention Period
Account registration data Duration of account + 5 years after closure
Transaction and payment records 7 years (financial regulation requirement)
KYC identity documents 5 years after account closure
Game activity and betting history 3 years after last activity
Support communications 3 years after the conversation is closed
Marketing consent records Until consent is withdrawn + 1 year
Security and access logs 12 months

Once the applicable retention period expires, 299bit securely deletes or anonymises your personal data. Anonymised data may be retained indefinitely for statistical and analytical purposes, as it can no longer be linked to you as an individual.

09 Your Rights

As a 299bit player, you have the following rights in relation to your personal data. To exercise any of these rights, contact us at [email protected]. We will respond within 30 days of receiving your request.

Right of AccessRequest a copy of all personal data 299bit holds about you.
Right to RectificationAsk us to correct inaccurate or incomplete personal data.

Right to RestrictionAsk us to limit how we process your data in certain circumstances.
Right to PortabilityReceive your data in a structured, machine-readable format.

Some rights may be limited where 299bit has a legal obligation to retain data — for example, transaction records required for financial compliance. We will always explain any limitations when responding to your request.

10 Children's Privacy

The 299bit platform is strictly for adults aged 18 and over. 299bit does not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under the age of 18. If you are a parent or guardian and believe that a minor has registered at 299bit or provided personal data to us, please contact [email protected] immediately.

Upon receiving a verified report of underage registration, 299bit will close the account, delete all associated personal data, and return any deposits made, minus amounts already wagered.

If you are under 18, you must not register at 299bit or provide any personal data to us. Please visit the Responsible Gaming page for information on parental controls.

11 Marketing Communications

299bit may send you promotional emails, SMS messages, or in-app notifications about bonuses, new games, and special offers. We will only send marketing communications if you have given your consent during registration or through your account settings.

Opting Out

You can withdraw your consent to marketing communications at any time by:

  • Clicking the unsubscribe link in any marketing email from 299bit.
  • Updating your communication preferences in your 299bit account settings.
  • Contacting support at [email protected] and requesting removal from marketing lists.

Opting out of marketing communications will not affect transactional messages such as deposit confirmations, withdrawal notifications, or security alerts. These are sent as part of the 299bit service and cannot be disabled while your account is active.

12 Changes to This Policy

299bit may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our data practices, legal requirements, or platform features. When we make changes, the updated policy will be published on this page with a revised "Last Updated" date.

For significant changes that affect how we use your personal data, 299bit will notify registered players via email or an in-platform notification at least 14 days before the changes take effect. Your continued use of the 299bit platform after the effective date of any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated Privacy Policy.
