We never purchase personal data from third-party data brokers or marketing lists. Every piece of data we hold about you came directly from your interaction with 888starz.

4 Why We Use Your Data

888starz uses your personal data for the following specific purposes. We do not use your data for any purpose not listed here without first obtaining your consent:

  • Account management — to create, maintain, and secure your 888starz account.
  • Identity verification (KYC) — to confirm your identity and age before processing withdrawals, as required by our operating obligations.
  • Payment processing — to process your deposits and withdrawals through your chosen BDT payment method.
  • Fraud prevention and security — to detect and prevent fraudulent activity, money laundering, and unauthorised account access.
  • Customer support — to respond to your queries, resolve disputes, and assist with account issues.

5 Legal Basis for Processing

Every time 888starz processes your personal data, we do so on one of the following legal grounds:

  • Contract performance — processing your data is necessary to provide the services you signed up for, including running your account and processing payments.
  • Legal obligation — we are required to verify your identity and retain certain records to comply with anti-money laundering and other applicable regulations.
  • Legitimate interests — we process some data to protect the platform from fraud, improve our services, and ensure the security of all players. We only do this where our interests do not override your rights.
  • Consent — for marketing communications and non-essential cookies, we rely on your explicit consent. You can withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing that took place before withdrawal.

If you want to know the specific legal basis for any particular processing activity, contact our support team and we will provide a clear explanation within 5 business days.

6 Sharing Your Data

888starz does not sell your personal data. We share your data only in the following limited circumstances, and only with parties who are contractually required to protect it:

  • Payment processors — bKash, Nagad, and Rocket receive the transaction data necessary to process your deposits and withdrawals. They operate under their own privacy policies.
  • Identity verification providers — third-party KYC services may be used to verify the authenticity of documents you submit. These providers are bound by strict data processing agreements.
  • Fraud prevention services — we may share data with fraud detection platforms to identify and prevent suspicious activity across the platform.
  • Technology providers — hosting, analytics, and platform infrastructure providers may process data on our behalf under data processing agreements that prohibit them from using your data for their own purposes.
  • Legal authorities — we will disclose data to law enforcement or regulatory bodies when required to do so by law, court order, or to protect the rights and safety of our players and staff.

We never share your data with third-party advertisers, data brokers, or marketing companies. If you receive unsolicited marketing claiming to be from 888starz, please report it to our support team immediately.

8 Data Retention

888starz retains your personal data for as long as your account is active and for a period after closure as required by our legal and regulatory obligations. The general retention periods are as follows:

  • Support communications — retained for 2 years from the date of the last interaction.
  • Marketing preferences — retained until you withdraw consent or close your account.

After the applicable retention period, your data is securely deleted or anonymised so that it can no longer be linked to you. If you request deletion of your account before the retention period expires, we will delete all data that we are not legally required to retain and anonymise the rest.

10 Children's Privacy

888starz is strictly an 18+ platform. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under the age of 18. If you are under 18, you must not register an account or use the platform in any way.

If we discover that an account belongs to a person under 18, we will close the account immediately, void any balances, and delete the associated personal data as quickly as our legal obligations allow. If you believe a minor has registered on 888starz, please contact our support team immediately so we can investigate.

Parents and guardians are encouraged to use parental control software to prevent minors from accessing online gambling platforms. 888starz supports responsible gaming and takes underage access seriously.

11 Security Measures

888starz takes the security of your personal data seriously. We have implemented the following technical and organisational measures to protect your information against unauthorised access, loss, or disclosure:

  • TLS encryption — all data transmitted between your device and our servers is encrypted in transit using Transport Layer Security (TLS).
  • Secure storage — account data and KYC documents are stored on secured servers with access restricted to authorised personnel only.
  • Two-factor authentication — players can enable 2FA on their accounts for an additional layer of login security.
  • Access controls — internal access to player data is role-based and logged. Staff can only access the data necessary for their specific job function.
  • Fraud monitoring — automated systems monitor account activity continuously for signs of unauthorised access or suspicious behaviour.
  • Regular security reviews — our platform and infrastructure undergo regular security assessments to identify and address vulnerabilities.

Despite these measures, no online platform can guarantee absolute security. If you suspect your account has been compromised, contact support immediately via live chat. We will lock your account and investigate within minutes of receiving your report.

You also play a role in keeping your account secure. Use a strong, unique password for your 888starz account and never share your login credentials with anyone — including people claiming to be 888starz staff.

888starz may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in how we operate, changes in applicable law, or improvements to our data practices. When we make changes, we will publish the updated policy on this page with a revised "last updated" date.

For minor changes — such as clarifications or corrections — we will update the page without sending a direct notification. For significant changes that affect how we collect or use your data, we will notify you via email or an in-platform notification at least 14 days before the changes take effect.

Continued use of the 888starz platform after a policy update constitutes your acceptance of the revised Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with the changes, you should stop using the platform and contact support to close your account.

Bookmark this page and check the "last updated" date periodically. It is the quickest way to know whether anything has changed since you last reviewed the policy.
