Data & Privacy

Malbat Privacy Policy

Your personal data belongs to you. This page explains exactly what information malbat collects when you use the platform, why we collect it, how we protect it, and what rights you have over it. We've written this in plain language so there's no confusion.

Last Updated: January 2025

How Malbat Protects Your Privacy

These six commitments summarise how malbat handles your data. The full policy below contains all the detail — please read it carefully.

End-to-End Encryption

All data transmitted between your device and malbat's servers is encrypted using TLS. Your account credentials, payment details and personal information are never sent in plain text across any connection.

We Never Sell Your Data

Malbat does not sell, rent or trade your personal information to any third party for marketing purposes. Your data is used only to operate the malbat platform and fulfil our legal obligations — nothing else.

You Control Your Data

You can request access to the personal data malbat holds about you, ask for corrections, or request deletion of your account and associated data at any time by contacting malbat support.

Minimal Data Collection

Malbat only collects the data that is genuinely necessary to operate the platform, verify your identity, process payments and comply with regulations. We don't collect data just because we can.

Clear Retention Limits

Malbat retains your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this policy or as required by law. When data is no longer needed, it is securely deleted or anonymised.

Breach Notification

In the unlikely event of a data breach that affects your personal information, malbat will notify affected players promptly and take immediate steps to contain the breach and prevent further exposure.

1 Who We Are

Malbat operates the online gaming platform available at malbat.club and through the malbat mobile app. In this Privacy Policy, "malbat", "we", "us" and "our" refer to the operator of the malbat platform. "You" and "your" refer to any person who accesses the malbat website, uses the malbat app, or holds a registered malbat account.

Malbat is the data controller for the personal information collected through the platform. This means malbat determines the purposes and means of processing your personal data. If you have any questions about how malbat handles your data, contact us at [email protected].

This Privacy Policy applies to all malbat services including the website, mobile app, live chat support and any other channels through which you interact with malbat.

2 Data We Collect

Malbat collects personal data in three ways: information you provide directly, information generated by your use of the platform, and information received from third parties such as payment processors.

2.1 Information You Provide

When you register a malbat account or use the platform, you may provide the following:

  • Full legal name

  • Referral source (how you arrived at malbat)

2.3 Information from Third Parties

Malbat may receive information about you from payment processors (bKash, Nagad, Rocket) to confirm transaction status, and from identity verification services used during the KYC process. This information is used solely to operate your malbat account and is not combined with data from unrelated sources.

3 How We Use Your Data

Malbat uses your personal data for the following purposes:

  • To create and manage your malbat account
  • To verify your identity and age as required by our terms and applicable regulations
  • To process deposits and withdrawals via your registered mobile banking account
  • To detect and prevent fraud, money laundering and other prohibited activity
  • To provide customer support and respond to your queries
  • To personalise your experience on the malbat platform
  • To send you service-related notifications such as deposit confirmations and withdrawal updates
  • To send promotional communications where you have opted in to receive them
  • To comply with legal and regulatory obligations
  • To improve the malbat platform through analysis of aggregated usage data
  • To enforce the malbat Terms and Conditions

Malbat does not use your personal data to make fully automated decisions that have a significant legal or similarly significant effect on you without human review.

4 Legal Basis for Processing

Malbat processes your personal data on one or more of the following legal bases depending on the specific purpose:

4.1 Contract Performance

Processing your registration details, verifying your identity, handling deposits and withdrawals, and managing your malbat account are all necessary to perform the contract between you and malbat. Without this processing, malbat cannot provide its services to you.

4.2 Legal Obligation

Malbat is required by applicable regulations to verify player identity, maintain transaction records, monitor for suspicious activity and report certain information to authorities. This processing is mandatory and cannot be opted out of.

4.3 Legitimate Interests

Malbat processes certain data — such as technical logs and usage analytics — on the basis of legitimate interests, specifically to maintain platform security, prevent fraud and improve the malbat service. We only rely on this basis where our interests are not overridden by your privacy rights.

4.4 Consent

Where malbat sends you marketing communications or uses non-essential cookies, we do so on the basis of your consent. You can withdraw consent at any time by contacting malbat support or using the unsubscribe link in any marketing email.

5 Sharing Your Data

Malbat does not sell your personal data. We share your data only in the following limited circumstances:

5.1 Payment Processors

To process your deposits and withdrawals, malbat shares necessary transaction data with bKash, Nagad and Rocket. These providers process your data only as required to complete the transaction and are bound by their own privacy obligations.

5.2 Identity Verification Services

During the KYC process, malbat may share your identity documents with a third-party verification service. This service processes your data solely to confirm your identity and does not retain it for any other purpose.

5.3 Legal and Regulatory Authorities

Malbat will disclose personal data to law enforcement, regulatory bodies or other authorities where required to do so by law, court order or regulatory requirement. Malbat will notify you of such disclosure where legally permitted to do so.

5.4 Business Operations

Malbat may share data with service providers who assist in operating the platform — such as hosting providers, analytics services and customer support tools. These providers act as data processors under contract with malbat and are not permitted to use your data for their own purposes.

No Third-Party Marketing: Malbat never shares your contact details with third-party advertisers or marketing companies. You will only receive marketing from malbat itself, and only if you have opted in.

6 Cookies and Tracking

6.1 What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. Malbat uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to keep you logged in, remember your preferences, analyse how the platform is used and detect fraudulent activity.

6.2 Types of Cookies Malbat Uses

  • Essential cookies: Required for the platform to function. These cannot be disabled. They include session cookies that keep you logged in and security cookies that protect against fraud.
  • Analytics cookies: Help malbat understand how players use the platform so we can improve it. These collect aggregated, anonymised data.
  • Preference cookies: Remember your settings such as language preference and display options.

6.3 Managing Cookies

You can control non-essential cookies through your browser settings. Disabling essential cookies will prevent the malbat platform from functioning correctly. For detailed instructions on managing cookies in your specific browser, refer to your browser's help documentation.

7 Data Retention

Malbat retains your personal data for as long as your account is active and for a period after closure as required by applicable regulations. Specifically:

  • Account and identity data is retained for a minimum of 5 years after account closure to comply with anti-money laundering regulations.
  • Transaction records are retained for a minimum of 5 years from the date of the transaction.
  • Support communications are retained for 2 years from the date of the interaction.
  • Technical logs are retained for 12 months and then deleted or anonymised.
  • Marketing consent records are retained for as long as you remain opted in, plus 2 years after opt-out.

When data is no longer required, malbat securely deletes it or anonymises it so it can no longer be linked to you. Anonymised data may be retained indefinitely for statistical analysis.

8 Your Rights

As a malbat player, you have the following rights in relation to your personal data. To exercise any of these rights, contact malbat support at [email protected]. Malbat will respond to all valid requests within 30 days.

Right of Access

Request a copy of all personal data malbat holds about you.

Right to Rectification

Ask malbat to correct any inaccurate or incomplete data.

Right to Erasure

Request deletion of your data where there is no legal obligation to retain it.

Right to Restriction

Ask malbat to limit processing of your data in certain circumstances.

Right to Portability

Receive your data in a structured, machine-readable format.

Right to Object

Object to processing based on legitimate interests or for direct marketing.

Some rights may be limited where malbat has a legal obligation to retain or process your data — for example, transaction records required for anti-money laundering compliance. Malbat will explain any such limitations when responding to your request.

9 Data Security

Malbat takes the security of your personal data seriously and implements a range of technical and organisational measures to protect it. These include:

  • TLS encryption for all data in transit between your device and malbat's servers
  • Encryption of sensitive data at rest, including payment details and identity documents
  • Access controls that limit which malbat staff can access personal data, based on job role
  • Regular security audits and vulnerability assessments of the malbat platform
  • Two-factor authentication options for player accounts
  • Monitoring systems that detect and alert on unusual account activity

While malbat takes all reasonable steps to protect your data, no online platform can guarantee absolute security. You also play a role in keeping your account secure — use a strong, unique password for your malbat account and never share your login credentials with anyone.

Security Reminder: Malbat will never ask for your password via email, SMS or live chat. If you receive any such request, do not respond and contact malbat support immediately.

10 Children's Privacy

The malbat platform is strictly for adults aged 18 and over. Malbat does not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under the age of 18. If malbat discovers that a player is under 18, the account will be closed immediately and any data collected will be deleted in accordance with our data retention policy.

If you believe a minor has registered a malbat account, please contact malbat support at [email protected] immediately so we can investigate and take appropriate action.

11 Marketing Communications

Malbat may send you promotional messages about bonuses, new games and special offers via SMS or in-app notification. We will only do this if you have opted in to receive marketing communications during registration or through your account settings.

You can opt out of marketing communications at any time by:

  • Updating your notification preferences in your malbat account settings
  • Contacting malbat support and requesting removal from marketing lists

Opting out of marketing will not affect service communications — malbat will still send you essential notifications such as deposit confirmations, withdrawal updates and security alerts.

Players who have self-excluded or requested a cooling-off period through the malbat responsible gaming tools will be automatically removed from all marketing communications for the duration of their exclusion.

12 Changes to This Policy

Malbat may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology or legal requirements. When we make material changes, we will notify registered players via in-app notification or email at least 7 days before the changes take effect.

The current version of the malbat Privacy Policy is always available at malbat.club/privacy-policy. The "Last Updated" date at the top of this page shows when the policy was most recently revised. Continued use of the malbat platform after the effective date of any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
