Privacy Policy — How tk34 Handles Your Personal Data
At tk34, your privacy is a core commitment, not an afterthought. This Privacy Policy explains exactly what personal data we collect, why we collect it, how we store and protect it, and what rights you have over your own information as a player on Bangladesh's trusted betting platform.
Six Core Privacy Commitments
These cards summarise the six most important principles that shape how tk34 manages your personal data. They are provided for convenience and do not replace the full policy text below.
Minimal Data Collection
tk34 collects only the personal data that is strictly necessary to operate your account, process transactions, verify your identity, and comply with responsible gaming obligations. We do not harvest surplus data for profiling or advertising.
Enterprise-Grade Security
All data transmitted between your device and tk34 is protected by TLS 1.3 encryption with 256-bit SSL. Stored data is secured in encrypted databases with strict access controls. Our security posture is reviewed and updated regularly.
No Sale of Personal Data
tk34 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to third-party advertisers, data brokers, or marketing companies. Data shared with partners such as bKash, Nagad, and game providers is limited strictly to what is needed for the service.
Full Player Control
You have the right to access, correct, restrict, or request deletion of your personal data at any time. Requests are handled by our support team and are processed in accordance with applicable data retention obligations.
Defined Retention Periods
tk34 retains your personal data only for as long as is necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by applicable legal or regulatory obligations. Account closure triggers a structured data-deletion workflow.
Transparent Updates
Whenever this Privacy Policy is materially updated, tk34 will notify active players via a platform notification and, where practicable, by email to the registered address. The effective date at the top of this document reflects the latest revision.
1 Introduction
tk34 ("we", "us", "our", "the Platform") is committed to protecting the privacy and personal data of every player who uses our platform. This Privacy Policy sets out in clear, plain English precisely what data we collect about you, the purposes for which we use it, the grounds on which we process it, and the choices and rights available to you.
This policy applies to all personal data processed by tk34 in connection with your use of the platform accessible at https://tk34.io, including all sub-pages, mobile-optimised interfaces, and any communication channels operated by tk34 such as email support and live chat.

This Privacy Policy should be read alongside the tk34 Terms & Conditions and Responsible Gaming Policy, both of which are published on the platform and are incorporated by reference. In the event of any conflict between this policy and another tk34 document, this Privacy Policy governs in relation to data protection matters.
We may update this policy from time to time. The version displayed on this page with the effective date shown above is the current operative version. We encourage you to review this policy periodically to stay informed about how we protect your data.

4 Legal Basis for Processing
tk34 processes your personal data on one or more of the following legal grounds, depending on the nature of the processing activity:
- Performance of a contract: Processing your registration data, KYC documents, and financial transaction data is necessary to deliver the betting and gaming services you have contracted for when creating a tk34 account.
- Compliance with a legal obligation: Identity verification, age verification, record-keeping, and anti-money-laundering checks are carried out in compliance with applicable legal and regulatory obligations.
- Legitimate interests: tk34 processes device data, technical logs, and gameplay analytics to protect the security and integrity of the platform, detect fraud and bonus abuse, and improve service quality. These legitimate interests are balanced against your right to privacy, and we apply proportionate data minimisation practices.
- Consent: Where we send optional marketing communications or non-essential cookies, we do so on the basis of your explicit consent. You may withdraw consent at any time by contacting [email protected] or adjusting your account notification settings.
5 Sharing Your Personal Data
tk34 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to third parties. We share personal data only in the following limited and controlled circumstances:
5.1 Payment Service Providers
When you make a deposit or withdrawal using bKash, Nagad, Rocket, or Upay, we share the minimum necessary transaction data (including your registered mobile number and transaction amount) with the relevant payment provider to process the transaction. Each payment provider operates under its own privacy policy and security framework.
5.2 Game and Content Providers
Game providers such as Pragmatic Play, Evolution Gaming, NetEnt, Microgaming, Spribe, and Ezugi may receive a session token and anonymised player identifier to facilitate game loading and bet settlement. These providers do not receive your full name, contact details, or financial data unless required for a specific regulatory audit conducted with your knowledge.
5.3 Identity Verification Services
tk34 may engage third-party KYC technology partners to assist with document verification and age confirmation. These partners process identity documents solely for verification purposes and are prohibited by contract from using your data for any other purpose.
5.4 Legal and Regulatory Disclosure
We may disclose personal data to law enforcement agencies, courts, regulatory bodies, or other governmental authorities where we are required to do so by applicable law, court order, or lawful regulatory demand. Where permitted by law, we will notify you of such disclosure.
5.5 Business Continuity
In the event of a merger, acquisition, or transfer of tk34 assets to a successor entity, player data may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will notify active players of any such change and ensure that the successor entity is bound by data protection obligations at least as protective as those in this policy.
6 Cookies & Tracking Technologies
tk34 uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to operate the platform, maintain your session, and analyse usage patterns. The categories of cookies we use are described below:
- Strictly Necessary Cookies: These cookies are essential for the platform to function. They maintain your authenticated session, remember your account preferences, and enable core security features such as CSRF protection. These cookies cannot be disabled without impairing platform functionality.
- Functional Cookies: These cookies remember your platform settings and preferences (such as language and notification choices) so that you do not need to re-enter them on each visit.
- Analytics Cookies: tk34 uses privacy-respecting analytics tools to understand how players interact with the platform — including which pages are visited most frequently and where technical errors occur. Analytics data is aggregated and does not identify individual players by name or contact details.
- Security Cookies: Short-lived session tokens and device fingerprint markers used to detect suspicious login attempts and protect your account from unauthorised access.
tk34 does not use advertising cookies, third-party retargeting pixels, or cross-site tracking technologies. You may manage cookie preferences through your browser settings. Note that disabling strictly necessary cookies will prevent you from logging in to your tk34 account.
7 Data Security
tk34 implements a layered security architecture to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, alteration, and disclosure. Our key security measures include:
- Encryption in transit: All data transmitted between your device and tk34 servers is encrypted using TLS 1.3 with 256-bit SSL certificates. Connections using outdated TLS versions are rejected.
- Encryption at rest: Sensitive data fields including password hashes, KYC document scans, and financial records are stored in AES-256 encrypted form in our database infrastructure.
- Access controls: Access to personal data is restricted on a strict need-to-know basis. Internal staff with access to player data are subject to background checks, data handling training, and contractual confidentiality obligations.
- Infrastructure security: tk34 servers are hosted in data centres with physical security controls, network firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and regular vulnerability assessments.
- Incident response: In the event of a personal data breach that poses a risk to player rights, tk34 will follow a defined incident response protocol including containment, investigation, notification to affected players, and remediation.
8 Data Retention
tk34 retains personal data for defined periods that reflect the purpose for which the data was collected and any applicable legal retention obligations. Our standard retention schedule is as follows:
| Data Category | Retention Period | Basis |
|---|---|---|
| Account registration data | Duration of account + 5 years after closure | Legal obligation / contract |
| KYC / identity documents | Duration of account + 5 years after closure | Legal obligation (AML compliance) |
| Financial transaction records | Duration of account + 7 years after closure | Legal obligation (financial records) |
| Gameplay and bet history | Duration of account + 3 years after closure | Legitimate interest / dispute resolution |
| Support communications | 3 years from the date of the communication | Legitimate interest / dispute resolution |
| Technical / device logs | 13 months from collection | Legitimate interest / security |
| Marketing consent records | Until consent is withdrawn + 1 year | Legal obligation (consent records) |
Once a retention period expires, personal data is securely deleted or anonymised in a way that means it can no longer be linked back to you. Anonymised, aggregated data (such as platform-wide betting statistics) may be retained indefinitely as it no longer constitutes personal data.
9 Your Data Rights
As a player on the tk34 platform, you have the following rights in relation to your personal data. To exercise any of these rights, please contact [email protected] with the subject line "Data Rights Request" and provide your registered account username and the specific right you wish to exercise. We will acknowledge your request within 48 hours and aim to fulfil it within 30 days.
Please note that certain rights may be limited where tk34 has a legal obligation to retain data (for example, financial records required for anti-money-laundering compliance) or where fulfilling a request would prejudice an ongoing fraud investigation. We will explain any such limitation clearly when responding to your request.
10 Children & Minors
Parents or guardians who believe that a minor may have created a tk34 account using false information are requested to contact [email protected] immediately. tk34 takes underage gambling prevention extremely seriously and maintains robust age verification procedures as part of our KYC process.
11 Third-Party Links
The tk34 platform may contain references to third-party services such as payment providers (bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay) and game providers (Pragmatic Play, Evolution Gaming, NetEnt, Microgaming, Spribe, Ezugi). When you interact with these third-party services, you leave the tk34 data environment and their own privacy policies govern the collection and use of your data. tk34 is not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party providers.
We recommend reviewing the privacy policies of any third-party service you interact with in connection with your tk34 account. Links to third-party services are provided solely for your convenience and do not constitute an endorsement of their privacy practices by tk34.
12 Changes to This Privacy Policy
tk34 reserves the right to update or amend this Privacy Policy at any time. When we make material changes — meaning changes that meaningfully affect how we collect, use, or share your personal data — we will take the following steps:
- Update the effective date shown at the top of this document and in the hero section of this page.
- Display a prominent notification on the tk34 platform informing active players of the update when they next log in.
- Where practicable, send a notification to your registered email address summarising the nature of the changes.
Your continued use of the tk34 platform after the effective date of an updated Privacy Policy constitutes your acknowledgement of the revised terms. If you do not agree with any changes to this policy, you should cease using the platform and may request account closure by contacting the support team.
Minor editorial changes — such as correcting typographical errors, improving clarity without changing meaning, or updating formatting — may be made without individual notification but will still be reflected in an updated effective date.
