177bte Privacy Policy
Your privacy matters at 177bte. This Privacy Policy explains exactly what personal data we collect when you use our platform, how we use it, who we share it with, how long we keep it, and what rights you hold over your own information. We are committed to handling all player data with transparency, care, and security.
Privacy at a Glance
How 177bte Protects Your Data
Before reading the full policy, here is a quick summary of the six core principles that govern how 177bte handles all player data.
Minimal Data Collection
177bte only collects personal data that is strictly necessary to operate your account, process payments, verify your identity, and comply with applicable legal obligations. We do not collect data speculatively or beyond what is needed.
We Never Sell Your Data
177bte does not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third-party marketers or data brokers under any circumstances. Your data is used solely to deliver and improve your 177bte experience and to meet our compliance obligations.
Industry-Standard Encryption
All data transmitted between your device and the 177bte platform is protected using TLS/SSL encryption. Sensitive data including payment details and identity documents are stored using AES-256 encryption at rest.
Your Rights Are Respected
You have the right to access, correct, export, and request deletion of the personal data 177bte holds about you. Requests are handled by our support team within 30 days and at no charge to the player.
Clear Retention Limits
We do not retain your personal data indefinitely. Retention periods are set in line with legal requirements and operational necessity. Account data is held for five years after account closure; payment records are retained for seven years for financial compliance purposes.
Transparent Cookie Use
177bte uses cookies and similar tracking technologies only for essential platform functionality, session management, fraud prevention, and aggregate analytics. No third-party advertising cookies are placed on your device without your explicit consent.
Data We Collect
When you interact with the 177bte platform — from the moment you register an account through to your ongoing use of our gaming, betting, and payment services — we collect certain categories of personal data. This section sets out precisely what information we gather, and under what circumstances.
1.1 Registration & Identity Data
When you create a 177bte account, we collect the information you submit during the registration form, including your full legal name, date of birth, email address, and chosen username. If you are required to complete identity verification (KYC), we additionally collect copies of government-issued identity documents such as your National Identity Card (NID), passport, or driver's licence, along with a proof-of-address document where required.
1.2 Financial & Transaction Data
To process deposits and withdrawals, 177bte collects information about your payment method, including the mobile financial service account number associated with your bKash, Nagad, Rocket, or Upay account, or the bank account details associated with a direct bank transfer. We record the amount, date, time, and reference number of every transaction on your account. We do not store full card numbers or payment authentication credentials on our servers.
1.3 Technical & Device Data
Each time you access the 177bte platform, our servers automatically collect technical information including your IP address, browser type and version, operating system, device type (mobile, tablet, desktop), screen resolution, language settings, time zone, and the referring URL if you arrived via a link. This data is used for fraud detection, security monitoring, and to optimise the platform experience across different devices.
1.4 Behavioural & Gameplay Data
We record your activity on the platform, including the games you play, the bets you place, the stakes and outcomes of those bets, session duration, and the features you interact with. This data is used to manage your account, fulfil our responsible gaming obligations (including monitoring for signs of problem gambling), resolve disputes, and improve the platform's features and game offerings.
1.5 Communications Data
If you contact our support team via live chat, email, or any other channel, we retain records of that correspondence, including the content of messages and any attachments you send. This data is used to resolve your enquiry, train support staff, and improve our service quality.
177bte does not collect sensitive personal data categories such as racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious beliefs, health data, or biometric data, except where a specific legal obligation requires it (for example, if a responsible gaming self-exclusion programme requires us to record a player's declared problem gambling status for protective purposes).
How We Use Your Data
177bte processes your personal data only for defined, lawful purposes. The table below summarises the primary purposes for which we use your data and the corresponding legal basis for each processing activity.
| Processing Purpose | Data Categories Used | Legal Basis |
|---|---|---|
| Account creation and ongoing account management | Registration & identity data, communications data | Performance of contract |
| Processing deposits and withdrawals | Financial & transaction data, identity data | Performance of contract |
| Identity verification and KYC compliance | Identity data, financial data | Legal obligation |

| Sending promotional communications (with opt-in) | Registration data, behavioural data | Consent |
177bte will not use your personal data for any purpose that is incompatible with the purposes listed above without first notifying you and, where required, obtaining your consent. If you have opted in to receiving promotional communications from 177bte, you may withdraw that consent at any time by updating your communication preferences in your account settings or by contacting [email protected].
Data Sharing & Third Parties
177bte does not sell your personal data to third parties. We share your data only in the limited circumstances described below, and only to the extent necessary for the stated purpose.
3.1 Payment Service Providers
To process your deposits and withdrawals, we share the minimum necessary transaction data with your chosen payment provider — for example, bKash, Nagad, Rocket, or Upay, or your bank (Dutch-Bangla Bank, City Bank, BRAC Bank, Islami Bank, Sonali Bank). These providers act as independent data controllers in respect of the data they process and are subject to their own privacy policies and applicable financial regulations.
3.2 Game Content Providers
The games available on 177bte are supplied by licensed third-party game studios including Pragmatic Play, Evolution Gaming, NetEnt, Microgaming, Spribe, and Ezugi. These providers may receive technical session data (such as player session tokens, game round IDs, and stake/result data) to facilitate gameplay and verify game outcomes. They do not receive your name, contact details, or payment information.
3.3 Identity Verification Services
To perform KYC checks, 177bte may use a third-party identity verification service to authenticate the documents you provide. Such services receive only the specific document images and data points required for the verification check and are contractually prohibited from using your data for any other purpose.
3.4 Legal and Regulatory Disclosure
177bte may disclose your personal data to law enforcement authorities, financial intelligence units, or other regulatory bodies where we are legally required to do so — for example, in response to a court order, a lawful investigation request, or a mandatory reporting obligation related to suspected money laundering or fraud. We will notify you of any such disclosure where we are legally permitted to do so.
3.5 Business Transfers
In the event that 177bte undergoes a merger, acquisition, restructuring, or sale of all or part of its assets, your personal data may be transferred to the acquiring entity as part of that transaction. You will be notified by email of any such change in ownership and the impact on the processing of your personal data before the transfer takes effect.
All third-party service providers who process personal data on behalf of 177bte are subject to contractual data processing agreements that require them to maintain appropriate technical and organisational security measures, process data only on our documented instructions, and delete or return data when the contract ends.
Cookies & Tracking Technologies
177bte uses cookies and similar technologies (such as local storage objects and session tokens) on its platform. This section explains the types of cookies we use, their purpose, and how you can manage your preferences.
4.1 What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device by a website when you visit it. They allow the website to recognise your device on subsequent visits, remember your preferences, and maintain session state. Cookies cannot execute code, carry viruses, or access other files on your device.
4.2 Types of Cookies We Use
| Cookie Type | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly Necessary | Maintain your login session, remember your cart/game state, protect against CSRF attacks. These cannot be disabled as the platform will not function without them. | Session / up to 24 hours |
| Functional | Remember your language preference, game display settings, and responsible gaming limit settings between sessions. | Up to 12 months |
| Analytics | Aggregate and anonymised data on how players navigate the platform, which features are most used, and where errors occur. Used exclusively to improve the platform. | Up to 24 months |
| Fraud Prevention | Device fingerprinting and behavioural signals used to detect unusual account activity, bot traffic, and multi-account abuse. | Up to 12 months |
4.3 Managing Cookies
You can control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to view, block, or delete cookies. Note that disabling strictly necessary cookies will prevent you from logging in to your 177bte account and using core platform features. Disabling functional cookies will mean your preferences are not saved between sessions. Analytics and fraud-prevention cookies can be disabled without affecting core functionality, though doing so may reduce the accuracy of our security monitoring in respect of your account.
177bte does not use third-party advertising cookies or retargeting pixels. We do not share cookie data with advertising networks or social media platforms for the purpose of serving you targeted advertisements on other websites.
Data Retention
177bte retains personal data only for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by applicable law. Our retention schedule is set out below.
- Account and identity data: Retained for the duration of your account's active life plus five years following account closure, in accordance with anti-money laundering record-keeping requirements.
- Transaction and payment records: Retained for seven years from the date of each transaction to satisfy financial audit and regulatory requirements.
- KYC verification documents: Retained for five years from the date of verification or from account closure, whichever is later.
- Customer support correspondence: Retained for three years from the date of the last message in a support thread.
- Gameplay and betting logs: Retained for five years from the date of each gaming session, for dispute resolution and regulatory purposes.
- Analytics data (aggregated): Retained indefinitely in anonymised, aggregated form that cannot be traced back to any individual player.
- Marketing consent records: Retained for the duration of your marketing opt-in plus two years after opt-out, as evidence of the consent given and subsequently withdrawn.
When personal data reaches the end of its retention period, it is securely deleted or irreversibly anonymised. Where deletion is not immediately possible due to backup schedules, the data is isolated and protected from further active processing until deletion is completed in the next scheduled purge cycle.
Data Security Measures
177bte takes the security of your personal data seriously and implements a layered set of technical and organisational measures to protect it against unauthorised access, loss, destruction, alteration, or disclosure.
6.1 Technical Controls
- Transport encryption: All communication between your browser or mobile app and 177bte's servers is encrypted using TLS 1.2 or higher.
- Data-at-rest encryption: Databases containing personal data are encrypted using AES-256. Encryption keys are managed separately from the encrypted data.
- Access control: Access to production systems containing personal data is restricted to authorised personnel on a need-to-know basis, enforced through role-based access controls and multi-factor authentication.
- Intrusion detection: Our infrastructure is monitored 24/7 by automated intrusion detection systems. Unusual access patterns trigger immediate alerts to our security team.
- Penetration testing: 177bte's platform undergoes periodic security penetration tests conducted by independent security professionals to identify and remediate vulnerabilities.
6.2 Organisational Controls
- Staff who handle personal data receive mandatory data protection training and are bound by confidentiality obligations.
- A formal incident response procedure is in place to detect, contain, and notify affected parties of any personal data breach within the timeframes required by applicable law.
- Third-party service providers are assessed for their security posture before engagement and are required to maintain equivalent standards contractually.
Despite these measures, no online platform can guarantee absolute security. If you suspect that your 177bte account has been accessed without your authorisation, change your password immediately using the account settings page and contact our support team at [email protected].
Your Privacy Rights
As a player on the 177bte platform, you hold a number of rights in relation to the personal data we hold about you. These rights are described below. To exercise any of these rights, contact our support team at [email protected] with the subject line "Privacy Rights Request". We will respond within 30 calendar days at no charge to you.
Right of Access
Request a copy of all personal data 177bte holds about you, along with details of how it is being processed.
Right to Rectification
Ask us to correct any inaccurate or incomplete personal data we hold about you. Some data fields can be updated directly within your account settings.
Right to Erasure
Request deletion of your personal data where it is no longer needed for the purposes collected, subject to our legal obligations to retain certain records.
Right to Restrict Processing
Ask us to pause processing of your data in certain circumstances — for example, while the accuracy of the data is being contested.
Right to Data Portability
Receive a copy of the data you provided to us in a structured, machine-readable format (e.g., JSON or CSV) so you can transfer it to another service.
Right to Object
Object to processing carried out on the basis of legitimate interests, including profiling. You may also withdraw marketing consent at any time via account settings.
Please note that some rights are not absolute. Where 177bte is required by law to retain certain data (for example, KYC records and transaction logs held for anti-money laundering compliance), we may decline an erasure request in respect of that specific data while still fulfilling the request in relation to other data categories. We will always explain the reason for any partial or full refusal in our response to your request.
Policy Updates & Contact
8.1 Changes to This Privacy Policy
177bte may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our data practices, platform features, or applicable legal requirements. The "Last Updated" date at the top of this page will be revised whenever a material change is made. Where a change significantly affects how we process your personal data, we will notify you directly via the email address registered to your account at least 14 days before the change takes effect. Your continued use of the 177bte platform after that date will constitute acceptance of the updated policy.

If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy, wish to exercise a privacy right, or have a concern about how your data has been handled, please contact our support team. All privacy-related enquiries are handled by English-speaking staff available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, Bangladesh Standard Time (BST, UTC+6).

8.3 Scope of This Policy
This Privacy Policy applies to all personal data collected through the 177bte website and any associated mobile-optimised pages.

This Privacy Policy should be read alongside the 177bte Terms & Conditions and Responsible Gaming policy, both of which form part of the overall agreement between you and 177bte.
