When you access the Platform, certain technical data is collected automatically by our systems. This includes:

3. How We Use Your Information

vmw33 uses the personal data we collect for the following purposes. We only use your data where we have a lawful basis to do so (see Section 4).

• To create and manage your vmw33 account, including registration, login authentication, and account recovery.
• To verify your identity as part of our KYC process, as required for compliance with applicable financial regulations.
• To process your deposits, withdrawals, and bonus credits, and to maintain an accurate record of your account balance and transaction history.

• To comply with our legal obligations, including anti-money laundering (AML) requirements, regulatory reporting, and law enforcement requests.

4. Legal Basis for Processing

vmw33 processes your personal data only where we have a lawful basis to do so. The legal bases we rely on are:

• Contractual necessity: Processing required to perform our contract with you — specifically, to provide you with the Platform services, including account management, payment processing, and game access.
• Legal obligation: Processing required to comply with applicable laws and regulations, including AML obligations, KYC requirements, and cooperation with law enforcement or regulatory authorities.
• Legitimate interests: Processing necessary for vmw33's legitimate business interests, including fraud prevention, security monitoring, platform analytics, and service improvement — provided those interests are not overridden by your privacy rights.
• Consent: Where you have given your explicit consent to a specific processing activity, such as receiving marketing communications. You may withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.

5. Sharing Your Information

vmw33 does not sell your personal data. We share your personal data with third parties only in the limited circumstances described below.

Service Providers

vmw33 works with trusted third-party service providers who process personal data on our behalf in order to deliver Platform services. These providers are bound by data processing agreements that require them to handle your data only as instructed by vmw33, and to implement appropriate security measures. Categories of service providers include:

• Payment processors (bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay, Visa, Mastercard network operators, and partner Bangladeshi banks) — who receive transaction data necessary to process your deposits and withdrawals.
• Game content providers (Evolution Gaming, Pragmatic Play, Ezugi, NetEnt, Microgaming, Spribe, and others) — who may receive session identifiers and bet data necessary to operate their games within the Platform.
• Identity verification and KYC service providers — who assist in verifying your identity documents against government databases.
• Analytics and fraud detection providers — who help vmw33 identify suspicious activity patterns and improve Platform security.

Legal and Regulatory Disclosure

vmw33 may disclose your personal data to law enforcement agencies, regulatory authorities, financial intelligence units, or courts where required to do so by applicable law, court order, or regulatory directive. In such cases, vmw33 will disclose only the minimum data required to comply with the legal obligation, and will inform you of the disclosure where permitted by law to do so.

6. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

vmw33 uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to operate the Platform, maintain your session, and improve your experience. A cookie is a small text file placed on your device when you visit the Platform. The types of cookies we use are described below.

You can control analytics cookies through your browser settings. Please note that disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of the Platform. For essential and fraud-prevention cookies, disabling them through your browser may result in your account being temporarily restricted pending a manual security review.

7. Data Retention

vmw33 retains your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, regulatory, accounting, or reporting requirements. The following retention periods apply:

• Active account data (identity, contact, financial, and activity data): retained for the full duration of your account's active status and for a minimum of 5 years after account closure, in compliance with applicable financial record-keeping obligations.
• Support and communications data: retained for 3 years after the closure of the relevant support case, or for the duration of your account where the correspondence relates to an ongoing account matter.
• Marketing consent records: retained for the duration of your account and for 1 year after account closure, to allow vmw33 to demonstrate compliance with consent obligations.

After the applicable retention period has expired, vmw33 will securely delete or anonymise your personal data so that it can no longer be associated with you. Where anonymisation is not technically feasible, the data will be securely deleted.

8. Data Security

vmw33 implements appropriate technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, destruction, or disclosure. Our security framework includes industry-standard SSL/TLS encryption for all data in transit, encrypted storage for sensitive data at rest, role-based access controls that restrict employee access to personal data on a need-to-know basis, regular security audits and penetration testing of the Platform infrastructure, and automated fraud detection and anomaly monitoring systems.

Access to your personal data within vmw33 is restricted to employees and contractors who need it to perform their job functions. All personnel with access to personal data are bound by confidentiality obligations and receive regular data protection training.

9. Your Privacy Rights

You have the following rights in relation to the personal data that vmw33 holds about you. To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at [email protected]. We will respond to all verifiable requests within 30 days.

• Right of access: You may request a copy of all personal data we hold about you, along with information about how it is being used.
• Right of rectification: You may request that we correct any inaccurate or incomplete personal data we hold about you.
• Right of erasure: You may request that we delete your personal data, subject to our legal retention obligations. We cannot delete data that we are legally required to retain.
• Right to object: You may object to processing based on our legitimate interests, or to direct marketing. Where you object to marketing, we will stop processing your data for that purpose immediately.
• Right to restrict processing: You may request that we restrict the processing of your personal data in certain circumstances, such as while a dispute about its accuracy is being resolved.
• Right to withdraw consent: Where processing is based on your consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal of consent will not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.

To exercise any of the above rights, please send a written request to [email protected] with the subject line "Privacy Request" and include your full registered name and mobile number so that we can verify your identity before processing the request. We will not charge a fee for processing privacy rights requests unless they are manifestly unfounded or excessive, in which case a reasonable fee may apply.

10. Children's Privacy

vmw33 is strictly an adults-only platform. The Platform is not directed at, and is not intended for use by, any person under the age of 21. vmw33 does not knowingly collect personal data from any person under the age of 21.

11. Third-Party Links

The Platform may contain links to third-party websites, payment portals, or game provider interfaces. These third-party sites operate independently of vmw33 and are governed by their own privacy policies. vmw33 has no responsibility for the privacy practices, content, or security of any third-party site. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any third-party site before providing personal data to it.

12. International Data Transfers

vmw33 operates primarily within the Bangladesh market and stores the majority of user data within the region. However, some of our third-party service providers (including game content providers and fraud detection platforms) may process data in other countries. Where personal data is transferred outside Bangladesh, vmw33 ensures that appropriate safeguards are in place, such as contractual data protection obligations binding on the recipient.

By using the Platform, you acknowledge that your personal data may be transferred to and processed in countries outside Bangladesh. vmw33 will always take reasonable steps to ensure that any international transfer is conducted securely and that your data receives an adequate level of protection wherever it is processed.
