4 Sharing Data with Third Parties
8mb does not sell or rent your personal information commercially. However, in limited circumstances, information may be shared with specific third parties:
- Payment processors: Necessary financial information is shared with bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay, and related banking partners to complete transactions
- Technology service providers: Companies providing server hosting, data analytics, and cybersecurity services — who operate under strict confidentiality agreements
- Game software providers: Game studios such as Pragmatic Play, Evolution, and PG Soft may receive technical data from game sessions, but not personally identifiable information
- Law enforcement authorities: Information may be shared with authorities under a valid legal order or in emergency situations
Outside the cases listed above, we do not disclose your information to any third party. Data protection agreements are in place with all third parties.
5 Cookies and Tracking Technologies
The 8mb website and application use cookies and similar tracking technologies. These fall into several categories:
- Essential cookies: Keep login sessions active, verify security tokens, and ensure the platform's basic functionality — the site cannot work properly without them
- Functional cookies: Remember your preferred language, game filter settings, and other personalised preferences
- Analytical cookies: Used to understand which parts of the site are used most, helping to improve service quality
You can reject non-essential cookies by changing your browser settings. However, this may limit some platform functionality.
6 Data Security Measures
8mb uses industry-standard security technology to keep your personal and financial information secure:
- SSL encryption: All data transfers on the site are encrypted using SSL/TLS technology
- Password protection: Account passwords are never stored directly — only a value transformed through a strong hash function is retained
- Two-factor authentication: Account access is protected via OTP and additional verification methods
- Access controls: Only authorised staff are granted access to the information they need
- Regular audits: Security measures are regularly reviewed and improved
However, no method of transmitting or storing data over the internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. We are committed to providing the highest level of protection, but absolute guarantees cannot be given.
7 Data Retention Period
8mb retains your information for specific periods based on necessity:
- Active accounts: For as long as the account remains open and for the applicable legal period thereafter
- Financial transaction records: For the period required under financial regulatory rules
- Communication records: For a limited period for the purposes of dispute resolution and quality control
- After account closure: Information required to meet legal obligations is retained for the minimum necessary period, then securely deleted
