pojak Privacy Policy — How We Handle Your Data
pojak is committed to protecting the privacy and personal data of every player on our platform. This Privacy Policy explains what we collect, why we collect it, and how we keep it safe.
Introduction
This Privacy Policy ("Policy") describes how pojak ("pojak", "we", "us", "our") collects, uses, stores, shares, and protects the personal data of users ("you", "your", "Player") who access or use the pojak website, mobile platform, and associated services (collectively, the "Services"). By registering an account or using the Services, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Policy.
pojak serves players across Bangladesh — from Dhaka and Chittagong to Sylhet, Khulna, Rajshahi, Barisal, Rangpur, Mymensingh, and Cox's Bazar. All personal data we process is handled with the same standard of care regardless of which region of Bangladesh you are located in. This Policy applies to all data processing activities undertaken by pojak in connection with the Services.
1Data We Collect
pojak collects personal data in three main ways: information you provide directly, information collected automatically when you use our Services, and information received from third parties involved in delivering those Services. Each category is described below.
Information You Provide Directly
When you register an account, deposit funds, request a withdrawal, contact support, or participate in a promotion, you may provide:
- Full name, date of birth, and contact details (email address and phone number) provided during account registration.
- Identity verification documents (national ID, passport, or other government-issued identification) when requested as part of KYC procedures.
- Financial information including bKash, Nagad, Rocket, or Upay mobile financial service account details, or bank account information for deposit and withdrawal processing.
- Communications you send to pojak support, including the content of your messages and any attachments, for the purpose of resolving your query.
Information Collected Automatically
When you access pojak, we automatically collect certain technical and behavioural data to ensure the platform works correctly and to detect fraud:
- Device and technical data: IP address, device type, operating system, browser type and version, screen resolution, and mobile network operator.
- Session and usage data: pages visited, time spent on each page, game sessions started and completed, betting activity, deposit and withdrawal history, and log-in/log-out timestamps.
- Cookie and tracking data: session cookies necessary for platform operation, and analytics cookies that help us understand how players navigate pojak. See Section 8 for full cookie details.
Information From Third Parties
pojak may receive personal data about you from trusted third parties in limited circumstances:
- Payment processors (bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay, and partner banks) may share transaction confirmation data with pojak to verify that a deposit or withdrawal has been completed successfully.
- Identity verification service providers used as part of our KYC process may confirm whether the documents you have submitted match the details you provided at registration.
- Fraud prevention and anti-money-laundering screening services may share risk scores or flag information about a player's account if suspicious activity patterns are detected.
2How We Use Your Data
pojak uses your personal data only for the purposes described in this Policy. The table below sets out the main purposes and the type of data used for each:
| Purpose | Data Used |
|---|---|
| Account registration and identity verification | Name, date of birth, contact details, KYC documents |
| Processing deposits and withdrawals | Payment method details, transaction history, identity data |
| Platform security and fraud prevention | IP address, device data, session logs, betting patterns |
| Responsible gaming compliance | Deposit history, session data, self-exclusion status |
| Customer support and dispute resolution | Support communications, account data, transaction records |
| Service improvement and analytics | Aggregated usage data, device data, navigation patterns |
3Legal Basis for Processing
pojak processes your personal data on the following legal bases, depending on the nature of the processing activity:
- Contract performance — processing necessary to create and manage your pojak account, to settle bets, and to process deposits and withdrawals under the Terms & Conditions you accepted at registration.
- Legal obligation — processing required to comply with applicable laws, including KYC, anti-money-laundering, and responsible gaming obligations that apply to pojak as an online gaming platform.
- Legitimate interests — processing carried out for pojak's legitimate business interests, including fraud detection, platform security, service analytics, and responsible gaming monitoring, provided these interests are not overridden by your rights.
- Consent — where pojak processes data on the basis of your consent (for example, to send you optional promotional communications), you may withdraw that consent at any time by contacting [email protected].
4Payment Data and Financial Privacy
pojak takes the security of payment data very seriously. When you make a deposit or withdrawal via bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay, or a bank transfer, the transaction is processed by the relevant payment provider using their own security infrastructure. pojak receives only the confirmation data necessary to credit or debit your account — we do not receive or store full mobile financial service account credentials or bank account numbers on pojak servers.
All financial transaction records are retained for a minimum period required to meet legal compliance obligations including anti-money-laundering record-keeping requirements. After the required retention period, financial records are securely deleted or anonymised.
pojak does not sell, rent, or share your financial data with third parties for commercial purposes. Payment data is shared only with the specific payment provider needed to complete your transaction and with legal or regulatory authorities when required by applicable law.
5Data Sharing and Third Parties
pojak 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 stated purpose:
- Payment service providers (bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay, partner banks): shared to process your financial transactions. These providers operate under their own privacy policies and security frameworks.
- Game content providers (Evolution Gaming, Pragmatic Play, Ezugi, Spribe, NetEnt, Microgaming): your session and game activity data may be shared with game providers to the extent required for game operation, RNG certification compliance, and fair-play auditing.
- Identity and KYC verification providers: necessary personal and document data shared to fulfil identity verification requirements. These providers are contractually bound to use your data only for verification purposes.
- Legal and regulatory authorities: pojak will disclose personal data to law enforcement, regulators, or other governmental bodies when required to do so by applicable law, court order, or regulatory direction, or where pojak has reasonable grounds to believe disclosure is necessary to prevent fraud or serious crime.
pojak does not transfer your personal data to countries outside Bangladesh for storage or processing without ensuring an equivalent standard of data protection is in place. All third-party service providers used by pojak are required to handle your data with the same level of security and confidentiality that pojak applies itself.
6Data Retention
pojak retains your personal data for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, to maintain your active account, and to comply with our legal obligations. The following retention periods apply as a general guide:
- Active account data: retained for the duration of your pojak account. If you close your account voluntarily, basic account records are retained for a minimum of 5 years to meet anti-money-laundering and fraud prevention legal requirements.
- Financial and transaction records: retained for a minimum of 6 years from the date of the relevant transaction, in line with standard record-keeping obligations applicable to financial service providers.
- Support and communications records: retained for 2 years from the date of the last communication, or for the duration of any ongoing dispute, whichever is longer.
7Your Data Rights
As a pojak player, you have the following rights with respect to your personal data. To exercise any of these rights, contact our support team at [email protected] with your registered account email address and a description of your request:
- Right of access — you may request a copy of the personal data pojak holds about you. We will provide this within 30 days of receiving your verified request.
- Right to rectification — if any personal data we hold about you is inaccurate or incomplete, you may request that we correct or complete it. Minor updates (such as a change of contact number) can often be made directly within your account settings.
- Right to erasure — you may request deletion of your personal data where it is no longer necessary for pojak to retain it, subject to our legal obligations. Note that where pojak is required by law to retain certain records (e.g. financial transaction data), we cannot delete those records until the required retention period has elapsed.
- Right to restrict processing — in certain circumstances (for example, where you contest the accuracy of data we hold) you may request that we restrict our processing of your personal data while the matter is resolved.
- Right to withdraw consent — where processing is based on your consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal of consent will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before the withdrawal.
pojak will respond to all data rights requests within 30 days. In complex cases we may extend this by a further 30 days and will notify you accordingly. We do not charge a fee for exercising your data rights unless a request is manifestly unfounded or excessive.
8Cookies and Tracking Technologies
pojak uses cookies and similar technologies on its platform. Cookies are small text files stored on your device that help the platform function correctly and allow us to understand how the Services are being used. pojak uses the following types of cookies:
- Essential cookies — strictly necessary for the platform to function. These include session authentication cookies that keep you logged in, security cookies that help detect fraudulent activity, and cookies that remember your language and display preferences. These cannot be disabled without breaking core platform functionality.
- Analytics cookies — used to understand how players interact with pojak, which pages are most visited, and where technical errors occur. This data is aggregated and does not identify you personally. Analytics data helps pojak improve the platform experience for all Bangladesh players.
- Preference cookies — store your display and interface preferences (such as preferred language setting) so these are remembered between sessions. You may clear these by clearing your browser's cookie storage, though your preferences will then revert to defaults on your next visit.
You may manage or delete cookies through your browser settings at any time. Note that disabling essential cookies may prevent pojak from functioning correctly on your device. pojak does not use cookies to track your activity on third-party websites outside of pojak.
9Data Security
pojak implements a range of technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. These measures include SSL encryption for all data transmitted between your device and pojak servers, access controls that limit who within the pojak team can access your personal data, secure server infrastructure, and regular security reviews. All staff with access to personal data are subject to confidentiality obligations.
In the event of a personal data breach that is likely to result in a risk to your rights and freedoms, pojak will take prompt action to contain the breach, assess the impact, and notify affected players as soon as reasonably practicable. Please report any suspected security incidents to [email protected] immediately.
10Children and Minors
pojak is strictly an adults-only platform. Players must be 21 years of age or older to register and use the Services. pojak does not knowingly collect personal data from any individual under the age of 21. If we become aware that personal data has been collected from a person under 21, we will take immediate steps to delete that data and permanently close the associated account. If you believe a person under 21 has registered a pojak account, please notify us immediately at [email protected].
11Updates to This Privacy Policy
pojak may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our data practices, the Services we offer, or applicable legal requirements. When we make a material change to this Policy, we will update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page and, where the change is significant, we will make reasonable efforts to notify registered players via their account contact details.
Your continued use of pojak after the updated Privacy Policy has been published constitutes your acceptance of the revised Policy. If you do not agree with any changes, please stop using the Services and contact [email protected] to close your account.
