Platform Improvement
Analytical data is used to improve the user experience, diagnose technical issues, and maintain the quality of our services.

4 Sharing Information with Third Parties
We strictly control when and with whom your information is shared. Your information may be shared with third parties only in the following limited circumstances:
Payment Processors
Necessary payment information is shared with bKash, Nagad, Rocket, or banking partners to complete transactions. These partners follow their own security protocols.
Technology & Service Providers
Limited and necessary information may be shared with technology partners such as game software providers, server hosting, identity verification, or fraud detection services. All such partners are contractually bound to meet our privacy standards.
Legal Obligations
Information may be disclosed when required to comply with court orders, lawful requests from law enforcement agencies, or applicable legal obligations.
Business Transfers
User information may be transferred in the event of a merger, acquisition, or transfer of business assets. We will give you appropriate notice before any such change.
5 Cookies & Tracking Technologies
af44 uses cookies and similar technologies to improve your browsing experience and to keep the platform functioning properly.
Essential Cookies
These cookies are necessary for the platform's core functions — such as maintaining login sessions, verifying security, and saving your preferences. They cannot be disabled.
Analytics Cookies
These cookies help us understand how players use af44. The data collected is aggregated and anonymised, and is used solely to improve the quality of the site.
Cookie Controls
You can manage or delete cookies from your browser settings. Please note that disabling essential cookies may cause some af44 features to not work properly.
6 Data Protection & Security
af44 follows industry-standard technology and processes to protect your personal information. Our security framework is continuously reviewed and updated.
Encryption & Technical Safeguards
- SSL/TLS encryption: all data transfers between the platform and users are encrypted
- Data-at-rest encryption: sensitive information is stored in an encrypted state
- Firewalls and intrusion detection systems are active
- Regular security audits and vulnerability assessments are conducted
Organisational Security
- Only authorised staff have access to personal information
- Staff receive regular privacy and security training
- Data access logs are recorded and monitored
No digital system is 100% impenetrable. Even so, we maintain every effort to protect your information. In the event of a security incident, we will notify affected users in a timely manner.
7 Data Retention Period
af44 retains your personal information only for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected, or as required by legal obligations.
Active Accounts
While your account is active, your profile information, transaction history, and gaming records are retained. These are necessary for service delivery and account management.
After Account Closure
Even after an account is closed or deactivated, certain information may be retained for a defined period in accordance with applicable law for purposes of legal compliance, dispute resolution, or fraud prevention.
Automatic Deletion
Once the retention requirement has ended, personal information is securely deleted or anonymised so that it can no longer be linked to a specific individual.

9 Protection of Minors
af44 is an adults-only platform. Only those aged 21 or above may use this service.
We never knowingly collect or store personal information from anyone under the age of 21. Age verification is in place during the registration process. If we are informed that a minor's information has been collected, we will immediately delete that information and close the associated account.
If you suspect that a minor is using af44, please notify our support team.
10 Changes to the Privacy Policy
af44 may update this privacy policy from time to time. The policy may be revised if the scope of services expands, technological changes occur, or legal requirements change.
For any significant changes, we will send a notification to your registered email and indicate the new updated date on this page. Continued use of the platform after changes have been made will be taken as your agreement to the updated policy.
We therefore advise you to visit this page regularly and note the updated date.
