Your privacy is not an afterthought at krikye. This policy explains exactly what personal data we collect, why we collect it, how we use it and what rights you have as a player in Bangladesh.

Last updated: 1 January 2025

Six Ways Krikye Protects Your Privacy

A plain-language summary of how krikye handles your personal data. The full policy with all the details follows below.

Minimal Data Collection

Krikye only collects the personal data that is strictly necessary to operate your account, process payments and comply with legal obligations. We do not collect data for the sake of it.

Encrypted Storage

All personal data stored by krikye is encrypted at rest using industry-standard AES-256 encryption. Payment data is handled exclusively by bKash and Nagad — krikye never stores your mobile banking credentials.

No Data Selling

Krikye does not sell, rent or trade your personal data to any third party for marketing purposes. Your information stays within the krikye platform and its essential service providers only.

Transparent Data Use

Every category of data krikye collects is listed in this policy alongside the specific reason it is collected. There are no hidden data practices at krikye — what you see here is exactly what we do.

Your Rights, Respected

You can request access to your data, ask for corrections, request deletion or withdraw consent at any time by contacting krikye support. We respond to all data requests within 30 days.

Secure Transmission

All data transmitted between your device and krikye's servers is protected by TLS 1.3 encryption. The padlock in your browser confirms your connection to krikye is always secure.

01 Introduction

This Privacy Policy ("Policy") describes how Krikye ("krikye", "we", "us", "our") collects, uses, stores and protects the personal data of players who register and use the krikye platform at krikye.app. This Policy applies to all players based in Bangladesh and to anyone who visits the krikye website, whether or not they hold a registered account.

Krikye takes your privacy seriously. We understand that when you share personal information with us — your name, mobile number, payment details — you are placing trust in us. This Policy is our commitment to being transparent about exactly how that trust is honoured.

By registering a krikye account or using the krikye platform, you confirm that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with how krikye handles your data, please do not register or continue using the platform.

02 Data We Collect

Krikye collects personal data in three ways: data you provide directly, data generated automatically when you use the platform, and data received from third-party payment providers. The table below sets out each category clearly.

Category Examples Source
Identity Data Full name, date of birth, national ID number Provided by you at registration or KYC
Contact Data Mobile number, email address Provided by you at registration
Payment Data bKash/Nagad transaction reference, deposit and withdrawal amounts Payment provider confirmation
Account Activity Bets placed, games played, login history, session duration Generated automatically on the krikye platform
Device and Technical Data IP address, device type, browser type, operating system Collected automatically via cookies and server logs
Communications Data Support chat transcripts, emails sent to krikye Provided by you when contacting support

Krikye does not collect sensitive personal data such as racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious beliefs or biometric data, except where a government-issued ID is submitted for KYC verification purposes.

03 How We Use Your Data

Every piece of data krikye collects is used for a specific, documented purpose. We do not use your data in ways that are incompatible with the reasons it was originally collected. The primary uses of your personal data on the krikye platform are:

  • Account management: Creating and maintaining your krikye account, verifying your identity and processing your registration.
  • Payment processing: Facilitating deposits and withdrawals via bKash and Nagad, and maintaining accurate transaction records.
  • Bet settlement: Recording bets placed, calculating winnings and crediting your krikye wallet correctly.
  • Customer support: Responding to your queries, resolving disputes and investigating complaints.
  • Legal compliance: Meeting anti-money laundering (AML), Know Your Customer (KYC) and other regulatory obligations.
  • Fraud prevention: Detecting and preventing fraudulent activity, account abuse and terms violations on the krikye platform.
  • Platform improvement: Analysing aggregated, anonymised usage data to improve krikye's features, performance and user experience.
  • Responsible gaming: Monitoring betting patterns to identify players who may need responsible gaming support and applying account limits where appropriate.
  • Marketing communications: Sending you promotional offers and updates about krikye — only if you have opted in to receive them. You can opt out at any time.
Aggregated data: Krikye may use anonymised, aggregated data — where no individual player can be identified — for internal analytics and reporting. This is not personal data and is not subject to the same restrictions.

04 Legal Basis for Processing

Krikye processes your personal data on one or more of the following legal bases, depending on the specific processing activity:

  • Contract performance: Processing is necessary to provide the krikye service you have signed up for — including account management, bet settlement and payment processing.
  • Legal obligation: Processing is required to comply with applicable laws, including AML regulations and KYC requirements.
  • Legitimate interests: Processing is necessary for krikye's legitimate business interests, such as fraud prevention, platform security and responsible gaming monitoring, provided these interests are not overridden by your rights.
  • Consent: For marketing communications and non-essential cookies, krikye relies on your explicit consent. You may withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.

05 Data Sharing and Third Parties

Krikye does not sell your personal data. We share your data only in the limited circumstances described below, and only with parties who are contractually required to handle it securely and in accordance with this Policy.

  • Payment providers (bKash, Nagad): Transaction reference data is shared with your chosen payment provider to process deposits and withdrawals. Krikye does not receive or store your mobile banking PIN or password.
  • Identity verification services: During KYC verification, your identity documents may be processed by a third-party verification provider. This provider is bound by strict data processing agreements.
  • IT and hosting providers: Krikye's platform is hosted on secure cloud infrastructure. Hosting providers have access to server data only to the extent necessary to maintain platform operations.
  • Legal and regulatory authorities: Krikye may disclose personal data to law enforcement, regulatory bodies or courts where required by law or in response to a valid legal request.
  • Business transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition or sale of krikye's business, your personal data may be transferred to the acquiring entity, subject to the same privacy protections described in this Policy.
No third-party marketing: Krikye never shares your personal data with advertisers, data brokers or any third party for their own marketing purposes.

06 Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Krikye uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to operate the platform, remember your preferences and analyse how players use the site. Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit krikye.app.

  • Essential cookies: Required for the krikye platform to function. These include session cookies that keep you logged in and security cookies that protect against cross-site request forgery. These cannot be disabled.
  • Functional cookies: Remember your preferences such as language settings and display options to improve your krikye experience.
  • Analytics cookies: Collect anonymised data about how players navigate krikye — which pages are visited most, where players drop off — to help us improve the platform. Used only with your consent.
  • Marketing cookies: Used to deliver relevant krikye promotions. Only activated with your explicit consent and can be withdrawn at any time via your browser settings.

You can manage or delete cookies through your browser settings at any time. Disabling essential cookies will affect the functionality of the krikye platform.

07 Data Retention

Krikye retains your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by law. The general retention periods applied by krikye are:

  • Active account data: Retained for the lifetime of your krikye account plus 5 years after account closure, to meet legal and regulatory obligations.
  • Transaction records: Retained for a minimum of 5 years from the date of the transaction, in line with financial record-keeping requirements.
  • KYC documents: Retained for 5 years after account closure or the last transaction, whichever is later.
  • Support communications: Retained for 2 years from the date of the last communication.
  • Marketing consent records: Retained until you withdraw consent, plus 1 year thereafter as evidence of consent.

When data is no longer required, krikye securely deletes or anonymises it so that it can no longer be linked to you as an individual.

08 Data Security

Krikye implements a layered security approach to protect your personal data from unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration or destruction. Our security measures include:

  • AES-256 encryption for all data stored on krikye's servers.
  • TLS 1.3 encryption for all data transmitted between your device and krikye.
  • Role-based access controls ensuring only authorised krikye staff can access personal data, and only to the extent required for their role.
  • Regular security audits and penetration testing of the krikye platform.
  • Two-factor authentication options for player accounts.
  • Automated monitoring for unusual account activity and potential data breaches.

In the event of a data breach that is likely to result in a risk to your rights and freedoms, krikye will notify affected players without undue delay and take immediate steps to contain and remediate the breach.

Your role in security: Krikye's security measures are most effective when combined with good password hygiene on your end. Use a unique, strong password for your krikye account and never share it with anyone.

10 Children's Privacy

The krikye platform is strictly for adults aged 18 and over. Krikye does not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under the age of 18. If you believe a minor has registered on krikye, please contact us immediately at [email protected] and we will close the account and delete all associated data without delay.

Krikye uses age verification checks at registration and during KYC to prevent underage access to the platform. Any account found to belong to a person under 18 will be permanently closed and any balance forfeited.

Krikye may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our data practices, legal requirements or platform features. When material changes are made, krikye will notify registered players via the mobile number or email address on file at least 7 days before the changes take effect.

The updated Policy will be published on this page with a revised "Last updated" date. Your continued use of the krikye platform after the effective date of any update constitutes your acceptance of the revised Policy.
