Lawful Basis for Processing
abe999 processes your personal data only where a valid lawful basis exists. The primary bases on which abe999 relies when processing player data are set out below.
- Contractual Necessity: Processing your identity, contact, and financial data is necessary for abe999 to perform its obligations under the Terms & Conditions — including operating your account, processing deposits and withdrawals, settling bets, and providing customer support.
- Legal Obligation: abe999 is required by applicable anti-money laundering (AML) regulations and Know Your Customer (KYC) requirements to collect, verify, and retain certain personal data for defined periods. Compliance with these obligations is mandatory and cannot be waived.
- Legitimate Interests: abe999 processes technical and usage data on the basis of legitimate business interests, including fraud detection, platform security, responsible gaming monitoring, and service improvement. We balance these interests against your privacy rights and do not use this basis where your interests override ours.
- Consent: Where abe999 sends you marketing communications — such as promotional emails, SMS notifications about bonuses, or BPL season offers — we do so only on the basis of your freely given, specific, and informed consent at the time of registration or subsequently via your account notification preferences. You may withdraw consent at any time.
How We Use Your Data
The personal data collected by abe999 is used exclusively for the following stated purposes. We do not use your data in ways that are incompatible with these purposes without first obtaining your consent or establishing a separate lawful basis.
- Account Management: Creating, verifying, and maintaining your abe999 player account, including processing login credentials and enforcing the single-account rule.
- Payment Processing: Facilitating deposits to and withdrawals from your account via bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay, and bank channels, and maintaining an accurate transaction ledger in Bangladeshi Taka (৳).
- Identity & Age Verification: Confirming that you are at least 18 years of age and that your identity matches the account registration details, in compliance with responsible gaming standards.
- Fraud Prevention & Security: Detecting, investigating, and preventing fraudulent activity, multi-accounting, bonus abuse, money laundering, and other conduct that violates the abe999 Terms & Conditions.
- Responsible Gaming: Monitoring gameplay patterns for signs of problem gambling, applying player-requested deposit limits and self-exclusions, and making proactive responsible gaming interventions where warranted.
- Customer Support: Responding to your queries, complaints, and disputes; maintaining records of communications for quality assurance and dispute resolution.
- Platform Improvement: Analysing aggregated, anonymised usage data to understand how players interact with the platform and to improve game selection, navigation, and overall service quality.
- Marketing Communications (with consent): Sending you personalised promotional offers, bonus alerts, and seasonal campaign notifications — such as BPL tournament promotions, Eid offers, and Pohela Boishakh reload bonuses — where you have opted in to receive such communications.
Data Sharing & Third Parties
abe999 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to any third party for commercial purposes. We share your data only in the limited circumstances described below, and only to the extent strictly necessary for the stated purpose.
- Payment Service Providers: Your financial data is shared with bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay, Visa, Mastercard, Dutch-Bangla Bank, BRAC Bank, City Bank, Islami Bank, and Sonali Bank solely to process your deposit and withdrawal transactions. These providers are contractually bound to process your data only for that purpose.
- Identity Verification Partners: Where automated KYC verification is used, your identity documents and personal details may be transmitted to a trusted third-party identity verification provider. This provider operates under strict data processing agreements and does not retain your documents beyond the verification process.
- Game Studio Providers: When you play games from providers such as Evolution Gaming, Pragmatic Play, Ezugi, NetEnt, Microgaming, or Spribe, certain technical data (including your session token, stake history, and game outcome data) is transmitted to that provider's servers for game integrity and settlement purposes. Game providers are prohibited from using this data for any purpose beyond game operation.
- Legal & Regulatory Authorities: abe999 will disclose personal data to law enforcement agencies, financial intelligence units, or other competent authorities where required to do so by applicable law, court order, or regulatory direction — including in connection with AML investigations.
- Professional Advisors: abe999 may share relevant data with its legal advisors, auditors, and accountants where strictly necessary for the provision of those professional services, subject to confidentiality obligations.
All third parties with whom abe999 shares personal data are required to process that data in accordance with applicable data protection standards and under contractual obligations that mirror the protections set out in this Policy. abe999 takes reasonable steps to ensure that third-party processors maintain appropriate technical and organisational security measures.
Cookies & Tracking
The abe999 platform uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to deliver a functional, personalised, and secure user experience. This section explains what cookies we use, why we use them, and how you can manage your cookie preferences.
| Cookie Type | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly Necessary | Maintaining your login session, enforcing security tokens, preventing cross-site request forgery (CSRF). These cookies are essential for the platform to function and cannot be disabled. | Session / up to 24 hours |

You may manage your cookie preferences at any time through your browser settings. Most modern browsers allow you to refuse non-essential cookies, delete existing cookies, or receive a notification before a new cookie is placed. Please note that disabling strictly necessary cookies will prevent you from logging in and using core platform features.
Data Retention
abe999 retains personal data only for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, or for as long as required by applicable legal, regulatory, or contractual obligations. The following retention periods apply.
- Active Account Data: All personal data associated with an active account is retained for the full duration of the account's active status, plus a minimum retention period after account closure as described below.
- Identity & KYC Documents: Retained for a minimum of 5 years from the date of account closure or the date of the last transaction — whichever is later — in compliance with AML record-keeping requirements.
- Financial Transaction Records: Retained for a minimum of 5 years from the date of each transaction, in accordance with financial record-keeping obligations.
- Customer Support Records: Live chat transcripts and email correspondence are retained for 2 years from the date of the interaction, or until the resolution of any related dispute, whichever is later.
- Analytics & Usage Data: Anonymised and aggregated usage data is retained indefinitely for platform improvement purposes. Pseudonymised usage data linked to your account is deleted within 12 months of account closure.
- Marketing Preferences: Records of your marketing consent and any opt-out instructions are retained for the full duration of the retention period applicable to your account, to demonstrate compliance with consent requirements.
On expiry of the applicable retention period, abe999 will securely delete or anonymise your personal data in a manner that prevents reconstruction of the original data. Where deletion is not immediately practicable (for example, where data resides in encrypted backup archives), the data will be isolated from active processing and scheduled for deletion at the next archive refresh cycle.

Where a request is complex or involves a high volume of data, we may extend this period by a further 30 days, in which case we will notify you of the extension and the reason for it. There is no charge for exercising your rights unless a request is manifestly unfounded, repetitive, or excessive.
Data Security
abe999 takes the security of your personal data seriously and implements a layered security architecture to protect it against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. Our key security measures include the following.
- SSL/TLS Encryption: All data transmitted between your browser or mobile device and the abe999 platform is encrypted using TLS 1.2 or higher. The presence of the padlock icon in your browser confirms the active encryption status.
- Password Hashing: Player account passwords are stored using strong one-way cryptographic hashing algorithms. abe999 personnel cannot view your plain-text password at any time. If you forget your password, it must be reset — it cannot be retrieved.
