Data Protection & Privacy
Privacy Policy — How tk1972 Protects Your Data
Your privacy is a core commitment at tk1972. This policy explains exactly what personal information we collect, why we collect it, how it is stored and protected, who it may be shared with, and the rights you hold over your own data as a player on our Bangladesh-based platform.
Our Privacy Commitments
Six Pillars of Data Protection at tk1972
End-to-End Encryption
All data transmitted between your device and tk1972 servers is protected using 256-bit SSL/TLS encryption. This applies to login sessions, account registration, deposits, withdrawals, and any personal data you submit through the Platform — ensuring that your information cannot be intercepted in transit.
No Selling of Personal Data
tk1972 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to any third party for their own marketing purposes. Your data is used solely to operate your account, process transactions, comply with legal obligations, and improve your experience on the Platform.
You Control Your Data
You have the right to access, correct, and request deletion of your personal data at any time. You can also object to certain types of processing or request a portable copy of your data. Our support team handles all such requests promptly. Your privacy rights are explained in full in the Your Privacy Rights section below.
Minimal Data Collection
We collect only the personal information genuinely required to operate your account, process payments, verify your identity, and meet our legal obligations. We do not gather data speculatively or beyond what is necessary for a specific, stated purpose.
Defined Retention Periods
Personal data is not held indefinitely. tk1972 applies specific retention periods to each category of data — after which records are securely deleted or anonymised. Retention periods are governed by our legal obligations, dispute resolution requirements, and anti-fraud standards.
Marketing Opt-Out
Promotional communications from tk1972 are entirely opt-in. If you no longer wish to receive bonus alerts, match notifications, or seasonal offer emails, you may unsubscribe at any time via your account settings or by contacting our support team directly. Opting out does not affect your account or service access.

tk1972 does not sell your personal information. We share personal data with third parties only in the specific circumstances described below, and only to the extent necessary for each identified purpose. All third-party data processors are bound by contractual data protection obligations consistent with this Privacy Policy.

These providers are independently regulated financial institutions in Bangladesh and maintain their own privacy and security standards.
- Identity Verification Partners: We share identity document data with third-party KYC verification agencies to confirm the authenticity of documents you submit during account verification. These agencies operate under strict data security and confidentiality agreements.
- Game Providers: We share a session token and anonymised player identifier with licensed game providers including Pragmatic Play, Evolution Gaming, Ezugi, NetEnt, Microgaming, and Spribe to facilitate your access to their games. These providers do not receive your full identity or financial data.
- Fraud Prevention & AML Services: We may share technical and financial data with specialist fraud detection and anti-money laundering service providers where our internal systems identify activity that warrants further review.
- Legal and Regulatory Authorities: We will disclose personal data to law enforcement agencies, regulatory bodies, or courts in Bangladesh or any applicable jurisdiction where we are required to do so by law, court order, or binding regulatory instruction.
- Business Transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition, restructure, or sale of all or part of tk1972's business, your personal data may be transferred to the acquiring entity, subject to equivalent privacy protections. You will be notified of any such transfer in advance where practicable.
Section 4
Cookies & Tracking Technologies
How tk1972 uses cookies, local storage, and similar technologies on the Platform.
tk1972 uses cookies and similar client-side storage technologies (including local storage and session storage) to ensure the Platform functions correctly, to maintain your login session, and to understand how players interact with our pages. The cookies we use fall into four categories:
| Cookie Type | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly Necessary | Session management, login authentication, security tokens, load balancing. Cannot be disabled without breaking core Platform functionality. | Session / up to 24 hours |
| Functional | Remembering your language preferences, game display settings, and last-visited game categories to personalise your experience on return visits. | Up to 12 months |
| Analytics | Aggregated, anonymised data on page views, session durations, game popularity, and navigation paths — used to identify areas of the Platform to improve. | Up to 24 months |
| Responsible Gaming | Storing your session time-limit preferences and pop-up acknowledgement status so that responsible gaming prompts function correctly across sessions. | Up to 12 months |
Managing Cookies
You can manage or delete cookies through your browser settings at any time. Most modern browsers allow you to block all cookies, accept only first-party cookies, or delete cookies upon closing the browser window. Please note that disabling strictly necessary cookies will prevent the Platform from operating correctly — for example, you will not be able to maintain a login session without session cookies. Disabling analytics or functional cookies will not affect your ability to use the Platform's core features.
Section 5
Data Retention & Storage
How long we keep your data and how it is securely stored on our infrastructure.
tk1972 retains personal data only for as long as is necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, or for as long as required by applicable legal or regulatory obligations. The following retention schedule applies to the principal categories of personal data we hold:
| Data Category | Retention Period | Basis for Retention |
|---|---|---|
| Account & Identity Data | Duration of account plus 5 years after closure | Legal obligation / dispute resolution |
| KYC Documents | Duration of account plus 5 years after closure | Anti-money laundering legal obligation |
| Financial Transaction Records | Duration of account plus 7 years after closure | Financial record-keeping legal obligation |
| Support Communications | 3 years from date of interaction | Legitimate interests (dispute resolution) |
| Technical & Usage Data | 13 months on a rolling basis | Legitimate interests (analytics, fraud prevention) |
| Marketing Preferences | Until withdrawn or account closed | Consent |
After the applicable retention period has elapsed, personal data is either securely deleted from our systems or irreversibly anonymised so that it can no longer be linked to any individual player. Anonymised aggregate data (for statistical purposes) may be retained beyond these periods.
Data Storage Location
All personal data collected by tk1972 is stored on secure servers. We take all reasonable technical and organisational steps to protect data in storage against unauthorised access, accidental loss, destruction, or disclosure. Access to stored personal data is restricted to authorised personnel on a strictly need-to-know basis, and all access is logged and audited.
Section 6
Security Measures
The technical and organisational safeguards tk1972 uses to protect your personal data.
tk1972 applies a layered security architecture to protect all personal and financial data processed on the Platform. Our approach combines industry-standard technical controls with strict internal access policies and ongoing staff training. The following measures are in place:
- 256-bit SSL/TLS Encryption: All data in transit between your browser or app and our servers is encrypted using TLS 1.2 or higher. Our SSL certificate is maintained with continuous validity monitoring.
- Encrypted Storage: Sensitive data at rest — including KYC documents and financial records — is stored with AES-256 encryption. Encryption keys are managed separately from the data they protect.
- Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): Players are strongly encouraged to enable 2FA on their accounts. All tk1972 staff accounts with access to player data are required to use 2FA without exception.
- Access Control: Player personal data is accessible only to authorised staff who genuinely require it to perform their job functions (support agents, fraud analysts, finance team). Access permissions are reviewed regularly and revoked immediately upon staff departure.
- Intrusion Detection: Our infrastructure is monitored 24/7 by automated intrusion detection systems that flag and respond to anomalous access patterns in real time.
- Penetration Testing: tk1972 commissions periodic independent penetration tests of its Platform infrastructure to identify and remediate potential vulnerabilities before they can be exploited.
- Data Breach Response: In the event of a confirmed personal data breach that poses a risk to affected players, tk1972 will notify impacted users promptly, describing the nature of the breach and the steps being taken to contain it and prevent recurrence.
