Our Privacy Commitments
2. Information We Collect
okwn collects personal information through several means: directly from you during registration and account use, automatically through your interaction with the Platform, and in some cases from third-party identity verification services. The categories of personal information we collect are described below.
3. How We Use Your Information
okwn uses personal data collected from users for the following specific purposes. We do not use personal data for any purpose not described in this Policy without first informing you and, where required by applicable law, obtaining your consent.
- Account creation, authentication, and ongoing account management โ including password recovery and account security notifications.
- Processing of deposits and withdrawals via bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay, and other approved Bangladeshi payment methods, and maintenance of accurate transaction records.
- Age verification and identity verification (KYC) to ensure compliance with our 21+ age requirement and internal compliance procedures.
- Fraud prevention, security monitoring, and detection of prohibited conduct including multi-accounting, bonus abuse, and use of automated betting tools.
- Customer support โ responding to account queries, payment issues, bonus clarifications, and technical problems raised through the support channel.

4. Legal Basis for Processing
okwn processes personal data on the following legal bases, depending on the purpose of the processing:
5. Sharing of Personal Information
okwn does not sell personal data. We share personal information with third parties only in the limited circumstances described below, and only to the extent necessary for the stated purpose.
okwn will never sell, rent, or otherwise transfer your personal data to third-party advertisers, data brokers, marketing agencies, or any other commercial entity for commercial purposes. Your data is used to provide services to you โ not to generate revenue from selling information about you.
6. Payment Method Data and Security
okwn processes payments through bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay, Dutch-Bangla Bank, City Bank, BRAC Bank, Islami Bank, and other approved Bangladeshi financial service providers. When you initiate a deposit or withdrawal, you are directing a transaction through your payment provider's own system. okwn receives confirmation of the transaction outcome from the payment provider but does not have access to your full payment account credentials (PIN, full account number, or OTP). You should never share these credentials with any party, including okwn support staff.
Financial transaction records are retained by okwn for a minimum period as required by applicable financial compliance obligations. These records may include transaction dates, amounts, reference numbers, and payment method identifiers (partial or masked). They are not accessible to general Platform staff and are stored in a restricted-access system with access logs maintained for audit purposes.
7. Data Retention
okwn retains personal data for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, including for the duration of a player's account being active on the Platform. Following account closure, okwn retains certain categories of data โ including identity verification records, transaction history, and account activity logs โ for a minimum period as required by applicable financial and gaming compliance obligations. This retention period is typically a minimum of five years from the date of account closure.
Where a player requests deletion of their personal data, okwn will delete or anonymise data that is not subject to a mandatory retention obligation. Data that must be retained for legal or compliance reasons will be held in a restricted-access archive, isolated from active processing systems, for the duration of the applicable retention period and then permanently deleted.
8. Your Privacy Rights
As an okwn player, you have the following rights in relation to the personal data we hold about you. To exercise any of these rights, please contact okwn's support team using the contact details at the end of this Policy.
- Right of access โ you may request a copy of the personal data okwn holds about you, including details of the categories of data held and the purposes for which it is processed.
- Right of rectification โ you may request correction of any personal data held about you that is inaccurate, incomplete, or outdated. Some corrections (e.g. name corrections) may require supporting documentation.
- Right of erasure โ you may request deletion of your personal data where it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, subject to any applicable legal retention obligations that override the right of erasure.
- Right to restrict processing โ you may request that okwn restricts its processing of your personal data in certain circumstances, for example while a correction request is being assessed.
- Right to withdraw consent โ where processing is based on your consent (e.g. promotional communications), you may withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before the withdrawal.
okwn will respond to privacy rights requests within a reasonable timeframe. Where a request cannot be fulfilled in full โ for example because the data is subject to a mandatory retention obligation โ okwn will explain the reason and fulfil the request to the extent possible.
9. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
okwn uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on the Platform. Cookies are small data files stored on your device that help the Platform function correctly and remember your session preferences.
10. Security Measures
okwn implements technical and organisational security measures designed to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, destruction, or alteration. These measures include SSL encryption of all data in transit between your device and the Platform, hashed storage of account passwords (passwords are never stored in plaintext), restricted access controls limiting database access to authorised personnel only, session timeout and automatic logout features to protect accounts on shared or unattended devices, and regular security reviews of Platform infrastructure.
While okwn takes all reasonable steps to protect your data, no online platform can guarantee absolute security against all possible threats. You play an important role in keeping your account secure โ always use a strong, unique password for your okwn account, never share your login credentials with anyone, and contact support immediately if you suspect unauthorised access to your account.
11. Changes to This Privacy Policy
okwn reserves the right to update or amend this Privacy Policy at any time. Where changes are material, okwn will provide reasonable notice to registered players through the Platform or via the player's registered contact details prior to the changes taking effect. The updated Policy will be published at https://okwn.bet/privacy-policy with a revised "Last updated" date.
Your continued use of the Platform following the effective date of any change to this Privacy Policy constitutes your acceptance of the updated Policy. It is your responsibility to review this Policy periodically. If you do not agree to the updated Policy, you must cease using the Platform and may request account closure by contacting support.
