Privacy Policy — Your Data at 29bd
At 29bd, protecting your personal information is a core responsibility we take seriously. This Privacy Policy explains exactly what data we collect, why we collect it, how it is used, and the rights you hold over it. We are committed to full transparency in every aspect of our data practices.
1 Data We Collect
29bd collects personal data that is necessary to operate the platform, verify player identities, process financial transactions, and comply with applicable legal and regulatory obligations. We collect data through three primary channels: information you provide to us directly, information generated automatically through your use of the platform, and information received from third-party payment and identity verification partners.
We do not collect more data than is necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, and we do not sell your personal information to third parties under any circumstances.

3 Data Sharing & Disclosure
29bd does not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties for their own marketing or commercial purposes. We share your data only in the limited circumstances described in this section, and only to the extent necessary for each stated purpose.
Third-Party Service Providers
We work with carefully selected third-party processors who assist us in operating the 29bd platform. These processors act on our instructions and are contractually prohibited from using your data for any purpose other than providing their specified service to us. Categories of processors include:
- Payment Processors: bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay, and card processing partners who handle the technical routing of your deposit and withdrawal transactions.
- Identity Verification Providers: Third-party KYC and anti-fraud services that assist in verifying player identities and screening for financially prohibited persons.
- Game Software Providers: Licensed game studios such as Pragmatic Play, Evolution Gaming, Spribe, Ezugi, NetEnt, and Microgaming receive limited session and wagering data necessary to deliver their game software. These providers operate under their own privacy frameworks.
- Cloud Infrastructure & Security: Hosting, content delivery, and cybersecurity service providers who store and protect platform data.
- Analytics Providers: Aggregated, anonymised usage data may be shared with analytics partners to assist with platform performance measurement. No personally identifiable information is included in these transfers.
Legal and Regulatory Disclosure
29bd may disclose your personal data to law enforcement agencies, regulatory bodies, or other authorised public authorities when required to do so by applicable law, court order, or in response to a lawful investigative request. In such circumstances, we will disclose only the minimum information required to comply with the legal obligation, and we will notify you of the disclosure where we are legally permitted to do so.
4 Cookies & Tracking Technologies
29bd uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to ensure the platform functions correctly, to maintain your login session, and to gather anonymised analytics about platform usage. A cookie is a small text file stored on your device by your web browser when you visit a website. It does not contain executable code and cannot access other files on your device.
Types of Cookies We Use
| Cookie Type | Purpose | Duration | Classification |
|---|---|---|---|
| Session Cookies | Maintain your authenticated login state across page navigations | Session (deleted on browser close) | Strictly Necessary |
| Preference Cookies | Remember your language, game preferences, and responsible gaming settings | Up to 12 months | Functional |
| Analytics Cookies | Collect anonymised data on page visits, session duration, and feature usage to help us improve the platform | Up to 24 months | Performance |
| Security Tokens | CSRF protection tokens and fraud-detection signals to protect your account from unauthorised access | Session | Strictly Necessary |

Managing Your Cookie Preferences
You may configure your browser to refuse all cookies, accept only certain categories of cookies, or delete cookies that have already been stored. Please be aware that disabling strictly necessary cookies will impair the functionality of the 29bd platform, including your ability to log in and maintain a gaming session. Instructions for managing cookies are available in the help documentation of all major browsers including Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge.
5 Data Security
29bd employs a multi-layered security architecture to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. Our security programme is designed around the principle of defence in depth, combining technical controls, operational procedures, and staff training to maintain the confidentiality and integrity of all player data.
- 256-Bit SSL/TLS Encryption: All data transmitted between your browser and the 29bd platform is encrypted using industry-standard TLS 1.3 with 256-bit AES encryption, ensuring that your login credentials, payment details, and personal information cannot be intercepted in transit.
- Password Hashing: Account passwords are never stored in plain text. We use bcrypt with a high cost factor to hash and salt all passwords before storage, making them computationally infeasible to reverse even in the event of a data breach.
- Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): Players are strongly encouraged to enable 2FA on their 29bd accounts. When activated, logging in requires both your password and a time-based one-time code, significantly reducing the risk of unauthorised account access.
- Access Controls: Access to player data within 29bd's internal systems is restricted on a strict need-to-know basis. Staff access is logged, monitored, and reviewed on a regular basis. No staff member has access to your plaintext password.
- Intrusion Detection: Automated systems monitor the platform 24/7 for anomalous login patterns, unusual transaction activity, and other indicators of compromise. Alerts are reviewed by our security team in real time.
- Vulnerability Management: We conduct regular vulnerability assessments and penetration testing to identify and remediate security weaknesses before they can be exploited.
6 Data Retention
29bd retains your personal data only for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or regulatory reporting requirements. The retention periods set out below reflect the applicable legal obligations and our legitimate business interests in maintaining accurate records.
| Data Category | Retention Period | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Account Registration Data | Duration of account + 5 years after closure | Legal obligation / anti-fraud audit trail |
| KYC Identity Documents | Duration of account + 5 years after closure | Regulatory compliance / AML requirements |
| Financial Transaction Records | 7 years from transaction date | Legal and tax record-keeping requirements |
| Support Communications | 3 years from last interaction | Dispute resolution and service quality audit |
| Session and Usage Logs | 90 days (rolling) | Security monitoring and fraud investigation |
| Marketing Consent Records | Until consent is withdrawn + 2 years | Proof of lawful processing basis |
| Responsible Gaming Records | Duration of exclusion + 7 years | Regulatory duty of care obligations |
When the applicable retention period expires, personal data is securely deleted or permanently anonymised using industry-standard data destruction methods. Anonymised and aggregated data that cannot be re-linked to an individual may be retained indefinitely for statistical and platform improvement purposes.

8 Policy Updates & Contact
29bd reserves the right to update or amend this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in our data practices, applicable law, or the services we offer.
