You may withdraw consent at any time by updating your notification preferences in your account settings or by contacting support.
Responsible Gaming Monitoring
To monitor betting patterns for indicators of problem gambling behaviour, to enforce self-exclusion and deposit limit requests, and to flag accounts that may benefit from responsible gaming intervention in accordance with our duty of care to players.
2.2 oktaka will not use your personal data for any purpose that is incompatible with the purposes described in this section without first obtaining your consent or establishing a separate legitimate legal basis for doing so.
3. Sharing Your Personal Data
3.1 oktaka does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to unaffiliated third parties for their own commercial purposes. We may share your data with carefully selected third parties only in the circumstances described below.
3.2 Payment Service Providers. We share the minimum necessary transaction data with payment partners including bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay, Dutch-Bangla Bank, City Bank, BRAC Bank, Islami Bank, Visa, and Mastercard solely to process your deposit and withdrawal instructions. These providers are bound by their own privacy obligations and industry security standards.
3.3 Game Technology Providers. Casino game studios including Pragmatic Play, Evolution Gaming, NetEnt, Ezugi, and Spribe receive session data necessary to deliver their games and to maintain game integrity. These providers are bound by contractual data protection obligations and their own certified security frameworks.
3.4 Identity Verification Partners. To fulfil KYC obligations, we may share identity document images and personal details with accredited third-party identity verification services. These services process data under strict confidentiality agreements and are used solely for the purpose of verifying player identity and age.
3.5 Legal and Regulatory Authorities. We may disclose personal data to law enforcement agencies, regulatory bodies, or other competent authorities where required to do so by applicable law, court order, or regulatory instruction.

4.3 Closed Account Data. Following the closure of your account, whether at your request or by oktaka under the circumstances described in our Terms and Conditions, we retain your personal and financial data for a minimum period of five years. This retention period is required to comply with anti-money laundering record-keeping obligations and to defend against any legal claims that may arise from your use of the platform.

- SSL/TLS Encryption: All data transmitted between your device and the oktaka platform is encrypted using industry-standard SSL/TLS protocols.
- Encrypted Password Storage: Passwords are stored using one-way cryptographic hashing algorithms. oktaka staff cannot view or retrieve your password in plain text.
- Access Controls: Access to personal data is restricted to authorised personnel who require it to perform their job functions. All staff with data access receive regular data protection training.

5.2 While we take every reasonable precaution to safeguard your data, no internet-based system is entirely immune to security risk. You are responsible for keeping your account credentials confidential and for using a secure, private network when accessing the platform. Do not access your oktaka account over public or unsecured Wi-Fi connections.
6. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
6.1 oktaka uses cookies and similar technologies (such as local storage and session tokens) to operate the platform, remember your preferences, and analyse how players interact with the site. The following types of cookies are used:
Essential Cookies
These cookies are strictly necessary for the platform to function. They maintain your login session, remember your language and currency preferences, and enable core features such as the bet slip and account balance display. Essential cookies cannot be disabled without significantly impairing your ability to use the platform.
Analytics Cookies
We use analytics cookies to understand how players navigate the platform, which pages and games are most popular, and where technical errors occur. This data is used in aggregate and anonymised form to improve platform performance and content. Analytics cookies are set only with your consent.
Preference Cookies
Preference cookies remember choices you make on the platform — such as your preferred payment method or notification settings — so that you do not need to re-enter them on each visit. These cookies enhance the convenience of your experience but are not essential to core platform functionality.
6.2 You may manage cookie preferences through your browser settings. Most modern browsers allow you to block or delete cookies, though doing so may affect your experience on the oktaka platform. Please note that blocking essential cookies may prevent you from logging in or using certain platform features.
7. Your Data Protection Rights
7.1 As a player whose data is processed by oktaka, you hold the following rights with respect to your personal information. To exercise any of these rights, please contact the oktaka support team at [email protected] with your full name and account details.
Right of Access
You have the right to request a copy of the personal data oktaka holds about you. We will respond to verified access requests within 30 calendar days.
Right to Rectification
If any personal data we hold about you is inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to request that it be corrected or updated. You may update certain details directly from within your account settings.
Right to Erasure
Subject to applicable legal retention obligations (including AML record-keeping requirements), you may request the deletion of your personal data. Requests will be assessed on a case-by-case basis.
Right to Restrict Processing
In certain circumstances, you may request that we restrict the processing of your data — for example, while a rectification request is being reviewed.
Right to Data Portability
Where processing is based on your consent or contractual necessity and is carried out by automated means, you may request your data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format.
Right to Withdraw Consent
Where processing is based on your consent (for example, marketing communications), you may withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing that occurred prior to withdrawal.
7.2 oktaka will not charge a fee for handling data rights requests in ordinary circumstances. Where a request is manifestly unfounded or excessive, we reserve the right to charge a reasonable administrative fee or to decline the request, providing written reasons for doing so.
8. Minors and Age Restriction
8.1 The oktaka platform is strictly intended for adults aged 21 years and above. We do not knowingly collect or process personal data belonging to individuals under the age of 21. If we become aware that an account has been registered by a person under 21, that account will be immediately closed, all data will be handled in accordance with our legal obligations, and the matter may be referred to appropriate authorities.
8.2 Parents and guardians are encouraged to use parental control and internet filtering software to prevent minors from accessing gambling platforms, including oktaka. If you believe a minor has registered on our platform, please contact [email protected] immediately so that the matter can be investigated and resolved promptly.
9. Changes to This Privacy Policy
9.1 oktaka reserves the right to update or amend this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in our data practices, platform features, legal obligations, or regulatory requirements. Where changes are material — meaning they significantly affect how your data is used or your rights as a data subject — we will notify registered players via the email address or mobile number held on their account, or by displaying a prominent notice on the platform, at least 14 calendar days before the changes take effect.
9.2 Minor or administrative updates (such as corrections to contact details, formatting changes, or clarifications that do not alter the substance of the Policy) may be made without prior notice. The "Last Updated" date displayed at the top of this Policy will always reflect the date of the most recent revision.
