Data Protection & Privacy Commitment
156bd Privacy Policy
At 156bd, the privacy and security of every registered player's personal data is a foundational commitment. This Privacy Policy explains precisely what data we collect, why we collect it, how it is stored and used, and the rights you hold over your own information.
Please Read Carefully: This Privacy Policy forms part of your agreement with 156bd. By registering an account or continuing to use the 156bd platform, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this policy and consent to the processing of your personal data as described herein.
Scope of This Policy: This Privacy Policy applies to all personal data collected by 156bd through the 156bd.app website, mobile-optimised platform, customer support channels, and any other digital touchpoint operated under the 156bd brand targeting players in Bangladesh.
End-to-End Encryption
All data transmitted between your device and the 156bd platform is protected by 256-bit SSL/TLS encryption. This ensures that your personal details, payment information, and login credentials cannot be intercepted during transit by any unauthorised party.
No Data Sales — Ever
156bd does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to any third party for marketing or commercial purposes. Your information is used exclusively for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy and for delivering the services you signed up for.
Purpose-Limited Collection
156bd operates on a minimal data collection principle. We collect only the personal data that is strictly necessary to verify your identity, process your payments, comply with anti-money-laundering obligations, and deliver a safe, personalised gaming experience on the platform.
Your Rights Are Respected
Every 156bd player has the right to access, correct, or request deletion of their personal data. You may also withdraw consent, request data portability, or object to certain types of processing at any time by contacting the 156bd data privacy team at [email protected].
Transparent Cookie Use
156bd uses cookies and similar tracking technologies only to the extent necessary to operate the platform, maintain session security, and improve the user experience. We do not deploy invasive third-party advertising cookies. A full breakdown of cookie categories and their purposes is provided in the Cookies section of this policy.
Secure Payment Data Handling
Financial data submitted through the 156bd cashier — including bKash wallet numbers, Nagad account details, Rocket numbers, and bank card information — is processed exclusively through certified payment gateways. 156bd does not store full card numbers or mobile wallet PINs on its own servers at any point.
1. Data Controller & Contact Details
For the purposes of this Privacy Policy, the data controller responsible for the personal data of players registered on the 156bd platform is 156bd ("the Platform", "we", "us", "our"), operating the website located at 156bd.app and all associated digital services targeting the Bangladesh market.
If you have any questions, concerns, or requests relating to this Privacy Policy or the processing of your personal data by 156bd, you may contact our data privacy team using the following details:
- Email: [email protected] (plain text — not a clickable link)
- Subject Line: "Data Privacy Request — [Your Registered Username]"
- Response Time: 156bd aims to acknowledge all privacy-related correspondence within 2 business days and to resolve requests within 14 business days of receipt.
All privacy-related communications should be sent from the email address associated with your registered 156bd account to enable identity verification. Where verification cannot be completed, 156bd may request additional documentation before processing your request.
2. Personal Data We Collect
156bd collects personal data from players through several channels: directly through the registration form and account management panel on the 156bd platform, through interactions with the customer support team, through the payment processing infrastructure, and automatically through your use of the platform (device data, session logs, and cookies). The categories of personal data we collect are as follows:
2.1 Registration & Identity Data
When you create a 156bd account, we collect the following information:
- Full legal name (as it appears on your Bangladesh National Identity Card or passport)
- Date of birth (to verify that you meet the 18+ age requirement)
- Residential address in Bangladesh (city, district, postal code)
- Email address
- Mobile phone number (including the number associated with your bKash, Nagad, or Rocket mobile wallet account)
- Username and hashed password (passwords are never stored in plain text)
2.2 Identity Verification (KYC) Data
As part of our Know Your Customer (KYC) verification process, 156bd may request and securely store copies of the following documents:
- Bangladesh National Identity Card (NID) — front and back
- Valid passport biographical data page
- Proof of residential address (utility bill, bank statement, or official government correspondence dated within the last 3 months)
- Proof of payment method ownership (screenshot or statement from your bKash, Nagad, Rocket, or bank account confirming your name and account number)
- Selfie photograph (where requested for liveness verification)
2.3 Financial & Transaction Data
To facilitate deposits and withdrawals, 156bd records transactional data including the payment method type (e.g., bKash, Nagad, Visa), the last four digits of any bank card used, transaction reference numbers, deposit and withdrawal amounts in Bangladeshi Taka (BDT), timestamps of all financial transactions, and the balance history of your 156bd account. Full payment credentials (card numbers, wallet PINs) are processed exclusively by our certified third-party payment gateways and are not retained on 156bd's own servers.
2.4 Gameplay & Betting Activity Data
156bd records a complete log of your gameplay and betting activity on the platform, including game titles played, bet amounts, outcomes, session start and end times, bonus activations, wagering requirement progress, and sports betting selections. This data is used for account management, dispute resolution, responsible gaming monitoring, and platform improvement.
2.5 Technical & Device Data
When you access the 156bd platform, our servers automatically record certain technical information, including your IP address, device type and operating system, browser type and version, screen resolution, referring URL, pages visited and time spent on each page, and session identifiers. This data is used for security monitoring, fraud detection, and platform performance optimisation.
2.6 Customer Support Communications
When you contact the 156bd support team via email or the on-platform chat interface, we retain records of your communications, including the content of messages, timestamps, and any documents or screenshots you submit as part of a support request. These records enable us to track the history of your support interactions and ensure quality and consistency in the service we deliver.
3. Legal Basis for Processing
156bd processes your personal data only where a valid legal basis exists for doing so. The primary legal bases on which 156bd relies for the processing activities described in this Privacy Policy are as follows:
| Processing Activity | Legal Basis |
|---|---|
| Account registration and identity verification | Performance of a contract (Terms & Conditions) |
| Processing deposits and withdrawals | Performance of a contract; legal obligation (AML compliance) |
| KYC document collection and review | Legal obligation (anti-money-laundering best practice) |
| Responsible gaming monitoring | Legitimate interest (player welfare and platform integrity) |
| Fraud detection and security monitoring | Legitimate interest (platform security) |
| Sending transactional emails (deposit confirmations, withdrawal updates) | Performance of a contract |
| Sending promotional emails and bonus notifications | Consent (withdrawable at any time) |
| Analytics and platform improvement | Legitimate interest (service improvement) |
| Cookies (essential and functional) | Legitimate interest / contract performance |
| Cookies (analytics and preference) | Consent (withdrawable at any time) |
Where 156bd relies on consent as its legal basis, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out prior to withdrawal. To withdraw consent for marketing communications, use the unsubscribe link in any promotional email or contact [email protected].
4. How We Use Your Data
156bd uses the personal data it collects for the following specific, legitimate purposes:
- Account Management: To create, maintain, and administer your 156bd account, including processing your registration, verifying your identity, managing your balance, and enforcing the Terms & Conditions.
- Payment Processing: To facilitate deposits via bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay, Dutch-Bangla Bank, City Bank, BRAC Bank, and card schemes, and to process withdrawal requests to your nominated payment method.
- Age & Identity Verification: To confirm that every registered player is aged 18 or above and that their identity matches the documentation provided during registration. 156bd takes its obligations regarding underage access very seriously.

- Fraud Prevention & Security: To detect and prevent fraudulent activity, unauthorised account access, multi-accounting, bonus abuse, money laundering, and any other conduct prohibited under the 156bd Terms & Conditions.
- Customer Support: To respond to your support queries, resolve complaints, and maintain a record of your support history for quality assurance purposes.
- Marketing & Promotions: Where you have provided consent, to send you information about 156bd bonuses, promotions, new game launches, and cricket betting special offers relevant to Bangladesh cricket fixtures (BPL, T20, IPL). You may opt out at any time.
- Platform Improvement: To analyse aggregated, anonymised usage data to improve the performance, layout, and content of the 156bd platform, including optimising the experience for players in Dhaka, Chittagong, Sylhet, Khulna, and other cities across Bangladesh.

5. Data Sharing & Third Parties
156bd does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data. However, in order to operate the platform and deliver the services described in the 156bd Terms & Conditions, we share certain categories of personal data with trusted third-party service providers under strict contractual data processing agreements. These recipients and the data shared with them are described below:
5.1 Payment Processing Partners
To process deposits and withdrawals, 156bd transmits transactional data (including your mobile wallet number, transaction amount, and account reference) to the relevant payment gateway operator (bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay, or the relevant bank). These transmissions are secured by encrypted connections and are limited to the data strictly required to complete the transaction.
5.2 Game Content Providers
Live casino and slot game content on 156bd is provided by third-party studios including Pragmatic Play, Evolution Gaming, NetEnt, Microgaming, Spribe, and Ezugi. When you access a game delivered by one of these providers, certain gameplay session data (session token, bet amounts, outcomes) is transmitted to the provider's servers to render the game. These providers operate under contractual obligations to process player session data solely for the purpose of delivering and certifying game outcomes.
5.3 Identity Verification Services
156bd may use third-party KYC and identity verification technology providers to assist in the automated review of identity documents and liveness checks. These providers process your identity document images and biometric data solely for verification purposes and are contractually prohibited from using your data for any other purpose.
5.4 Analytics & Performance Tools
156bd uses server-side analytics tools to monitor platform performance and user behaviour patterns in aggregated, anonymised form. No personally identifiable information is shared with analytics providers in a form that would allow an individual player to be identified from aggregated reports.
5.5 Legal & Regulatory Disclosures
156bd will disclose personal data to law enforcement agencies, financial intelligence units, or other authorised bodies where required to do so by a lawful order, court order, or statutory obligation. 156bd will, where legally permitted, endeavour to notify the affected player of any such disclosure.
5.6 Business Transfers
In the event that 156bd undergoes a merger, acquisition, restructuring, or sale of all or part of its business assets, your personal data may be transferred to the successor entity as part of that transaction. In such circumstances, 156bd will notify registered players via their registered email address prior to any transfer taking effect, and the successor entity will be required to honour the commitments made in this Privacy Policy.
6. Cookies & Tracking Technologies
156bd uses cookies and similar tracking technologies (including local storage objects and session tokens) on the 156bd.app platform. Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your browser when you visit a website. They serve a variety of functions, from keeping you logged in to helping 156bd understand how players interact with the platform.
6.1 Categories of Cookies Used by 156bd
| Cookie Category | Purpose | Retention | Basis |
|---|---|---|---|
| Strictly Necessary | Session management, login authentication, security token validation, CSRF protection. Without these cookies the platform cannot function. | Session / up to 24 hours | Contract performance |
| Functional | Remembering your language preference (English), storing your deposit method preference, and maintaining your responsible gaming limit settings across sessions. | Up to 90 days | Legitimate interest |
| Analytics | Aggregated, anonymised data on page views, session duration, and navigation paths used to improve the 156bd platform. No individual players are identifiable from this data. | Up to 13 months | Consent |
| Security & Fraud Detection | Device fingerprinting tokens used to detect multi-accounting, bot activity, and unauthorised login attempts. These protect the integrity of the 156bd platform and the security of all player accounts. | Up to 12 months | Legitimate interest |
6.2 Managing Cookies
You may manage your cookie preferences through the 156bd platform's cookie settings panel, accessible from your account settings menu. You may also configure your browser to refuse, delete, or alert you to cookies at any time. Please note that disabling Strictly Necessary cookies will impair your ability to log in and use the 156bd platform, as session management depends on these cookies. Disabling Functional cookies will result in your preferences (such as saved deposit methods) not being retained between sessions.
156bd does not deploy third-party advertising cookies or retargeting pixels. You will not be tracked across unrelated third-party websites as a result of using the 156bd platform.
7. Data Retention Periods
156bd retains personal data only for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, to comply with legal obligations, and to resolve any disputes that may arise. The following retention schedule applies:
- Account registration data and KYC documents: Retained for the duration of your active account plus a minimum of 5 years following account closure, in accordance with anti-money-laundering record-keeping best practices.
- Transaction records (deposits, withdrawals, bet history): Retained for a minimum of 5 years from the date of each transaction.
- Customer support communications: Retained for 3 years from the date of the final communication in each support ticket.
- Marketing consent records: Retained until you withdraw consent, and for 2 years following consent withdrawal as evidence of compliance.
- Technical and device logs: Retained for up to 12 months, after which logs are either deleted or aggregated in anonymised form for platform analytics.
- Self-exclusion records: Retained for the duration of the self-exclusion period plus 5 years to prevent re-registration by excluded players.
Upon the expiry of the applicable retention period, 156bd will securely delete or anonymise the relevant personal data. Where data is anonymised rather than deleted, the anonymised dataset can no longer be used to identify any individual player and is no longer considered personal data for the purposes of this Privacy Policy.
8. Your Privacy Rights
As a player registered on the 156bd platform, you hold the following rights with respect to your personal data. To exercise any of these rights, submit a written request to [email protected] with the subject line "Data Subject Rights Request" and your registered account username.
- Right of Access: You have the right to request a copy of the personal data that 156bd holds about you, together with information about the purposes for which it is processed, the categories of data held, and the recipients with whom it has been shared.
- Right to Rectification: You have the right to request that 156bd corrects any personal data held about you that is inaccurate or incomplete. You may update certain account details (such as your email address or residential address) directly via the 156bd account settings panel.
- Right to Erasure ("Right to be Forgotten"): You may request the deletion of your personal data where it is no longer necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, where you have withdrawn consent (and no other legal basis applies), or where the data has been processed unlawfully. This right is subject to 156bd's obligations to retain certain data under anti-money-laundering and record-keeping requirements, which may mean that full erasure cannot be completed until the applicable retention period has expired.
- Right to Restriction of Processing: You may request that 156bd restricts the processing of your personal data in certain circumstances — for example, where you contest the accuracy of the data, pending the outcome of a rectification request.
- Right to Data Portability: Where 156bd processes your data on the basis of your consent or for the performance of a contract, and the processing is carried out by automated means, you have the right to receive a copy of your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format (such as JSON or CSV).
- Right to Object: You have the right to object to the processing of your personal data where 156bd relies on legitimate interest as its legal basis. 156bd will cease processing unless it can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds that override your interests, rights, and freedoms, or where the processing is necessary for the establishment, exercise, or defence of legal claims.
- Right to Withdraw Consent: Where 156bd processes your data on the basis of your consent (e.g., for marketing emails), you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing conducted prior to withdrawal.
156bd will respond to all data subject rights requests within 14 business days. Where a request is complex or involves a large volume of data, 156bd may extend the response period by a further 14 business days, in which case the affected player will be notified of the extension and the reasons for it.
9. Data Security Measures
156bd implements a comprehensive set of technical and organisational security measures designed to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, destruction, disclosure, or alteration. These measures include:
- 256-Bit SSL/TLS Encryption: All data transmitted between your browser or app and the 156bd platform is encrypted using industry-standard TLS protocols. This protects your login credentials, personal details, and payment information during transit.
- Password Hashing: Passwords are never stored in plain text on 156bd systems. All passwords are hashed using a strong, salted cryptographic algorithm before storage.
- Two-Factor Authentication (OTP): 156bd supports OTP-based two-factor authentication for all player accounts. We strongly encourage all players to enable this feature via their account security settings.
- Access Controls: Access to personal data within 156bd's internal systems is restricted to authorised personnel on a strict need-to-know basis. All internal access to player data is logged and subject to periodic audit.
- Fraud Detection Systems: 156bd deploys automated fraud detection systems that continuously monitor account activity for indicators of unauthorised access, multi-accounting, and financial fraud. Suspicious activity triggers an immediate security review.
- Regular Security Audits: The 156bd platform and its underlying infrastructure undergo regular security assessments to identify and remediate potential vulnerabilities before they can be exploited.
- Incident Response Protocol: In the event of a data security incident that is reasonably likely to result in a risk to the rights and freedoms of affected players, 156bd will notify the affected players via their registered email address without undue delay and will take all reasonable steps to contain and remediate the incident.
While 156bd takes all reasonable steps to protect your personal data, no online platform can guarantee absolute security against all possible threats. You play an important role in keeping your account secure by using a strong, unique password, enabling two-factor authentication, and ensuring that you do not share your login credentials with any other person. If you suspect that your account has been accessed without your authorisation, contact [email protected] immediately.
10. Policy Updates & Contact
10.1 Updates to This Privacy Policy
156bd reserves the right to update or amend this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in our data processing practices, changes to the services we offer, or updates required by applicable law or regulatory guidance. When a material change is made to this Privacy Policy, 156bd will notify registered players via email to their registered address at least 7 calendar days before the updated policy takes effect. Non-material changes (such as typographical corrections or clarifications that do not alter the substance of the policy) may take effect immediately upon publication on 156bd.app.
The date on which this Privacy Policy was last updated is displayed at the foot of this page. We encourage all 156bd players to review this policy periodically to stay informed about how we protect and use their personal data.

Parents and guardians who believe that a minor may have registered on the 156bd platform should contact [email protected] immediately.
10.3 Links to Third-Party Sites
The 156bd platform does not contain links to third-party websites for commercial or advertising purposes.
