k444 Privacy Policy — How We Handle Your Data
At k444 we take your privacy seriously. This Privacy Policy explains exactly what personal data we collect when you use our platform, why we collect it, how it is stored and protected, and what rights you hold as a k444 player based in Bangladesh. We are committed to full transparency — no hidden practices, no surprise uses of your information.
Introduction
k444 ("we", "us", "our") operates the online betting and casino platform accessible at k444.biz, providing services to players aged 21 and above across Bangladesh.

- Fraud monitoring: Automated systems monitor account activity and transactions for unusual patterns indicative of fraud, account takeover, or money laundering activity.
- Incident response: k444 maintains a documented data breach response procedure. In the event of a confirmed data breach affecting your personal data, k444 will notify affected players promptly and take immediate remedial action.
- Vendor security: All third-party service providers with access to personal data are required to demonstrate adequate security standards as a condition of their engagement with k444.

Children's Privacy
The k444 platform is strictly intended for adults aged 21 and above. k444 does not knowingly collect, store, or process personal data relating to any person under the age of 21. The platform employs age verification procedures during registration to prevent underage access.
If k444 becomes aware that personal data has been collected from a person under the age of 21 — whether through a misrepresentation of age at registration or any other means — it will immediately suspend the account, delete all associated personal data, and refund any real-money balance to the payment method used for deposits, minus any bonuses and bonus-derived winnings, in accordance with the Terms & Conditions.
Parents and guardians who believe a minor may have registered on the k444 platform are encouraged to contact k444 support immediately at the contact details provided in Section 13. k444 takes such reports seriously and will investigate and act within 24 hours of notification.
