In the event of a sale, merger, or acquisition of 499ba's business, user data may be transferred. However, the new owner will be required to maintain equivalent protections to those in this privacy policy.

499ba uses various types of cookies and tracking technologies:

• Essential Cookies: Essential for maintaining login sessions, ensuring security, and running the platform's core functions.
• Functional Cookies: Remember your preferred language, game settings, and display preferences.
• Analytics Cookies: Collect anonymous statistics about which pages are visited most.
• Security Cookies: Used to detect fraud and protect accounts.

You can control or delete cookies from your browser settings. Please note that disabling essential cookies may disrupt some platform functions.

The security of your data is 499ba's top priority. We maintain the following security measures in line with industry best standards:

• SSL/TLS Encryption: All data transmitted between the platform and your device is encrypted.
• Data Encryption: Stored sensitive data is protected with strong encryption algorithms.

499ba retains user data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purpose for which it was collected, or to meet legal obligations:

• Active Accounts: All data is retained for as long as the account remains active.
• After Account Closure: Financial transaction records are retained for the period required by applicable law.
• Identity Verification Data: May be retained for an extended period for fraud prevention and regulatory compliance.
• Cookies and Log Data: Automatically deleted, generally within 90 days to 12 months.

As a 499ba user, you have the following rights over your personal data:

• Right of Access: You can request to know what information we hold about you.
• Right to Rectification: You can request that incorrect or incomplete information be corrected.
• Right to Erasure: In certain circumstances, you can request that your data be deleted — however, where legal obligations exist, complete deletion may not be possible.
• Right to Restrict Processing: You can object to your data being used for specific purposes.
• Data Portability: You can request your data in a common, readable format.
• Withdrawal of Consent: Where processing is based on consent, you can withdraw that consent at any time.

To exercise these rights, please contact us through our support channels. We will process your request as quickly as possible.

499ba is a 21+ platform. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under the age of 21. Age is verified at the time of account registration.

If we become aware that data from a minor has been collected, steps will be taken to close that account and delete the associated data. Parents or guardians who are concerned about this matter are welcome to contact us.

To provide our services, your data may be stored or processed on servers located outside Bangladesh. For any such transfer, we ensure that:

• Adequate data protection measures are in place in the destination country.
• Transfer agreements include privacy protection obligations equivalent to those in this policy.
• Applicable laws and regulations are complied with.

The 499ba platform may integrate software from game providers such as Pragmatic Play, Evolution Gaming, JILI, PG Soft, Spribe, Ezugi, Microgaming, and NetEnt. These companies have their own privacy policies and we are not responsible for their data collection practices.

Payment gateways — bKash, Nagad, Rocket, and bank transfer services — operate under their own policies. Transaction data is shared with these services solely for the purpose of completing payments.

499ba reserves the right to change this privacy policy at any time. For significant changes, we will notify you in the following ways:

• Displaying a clear notice when you access the platform.
• Sending a notification to your registered email address.
• Updating the last-modified date on this page.

Continued use of the platform after a change takes effect will be considered acceptance of the updated policy. We therefore recommend checking this page regularly.

499ba monitors users' play patterns to ensure responsible gaming. This monitoring is entirely for the protection of users — not for any commercial purpose.

If monitoring suggests that a user may need support, our support team may reach out to them. To learn more about responsible gaming, please visit our Responsible Gaming page.
