j188 treats the protection of your personal information as its highest priority. By using our platform, you agree to the terms of this Policy. If you do not agree with these terms, please refrain from using our services.

This Policy may be updated periodically. Any changes will be published on this page, and for significant changes we will endeavour to notify you at your registered email address. The latest effective version will always be available on this page.

Data Sharing & Disclosure

j188 shares your information with third parties only in the limited and specific circumstances described below.

Service Provider Partners

Minimum necessary information is shared with selected partners for payment processing (bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay, bank transfer), technical infrastructure maintenance, and fraud-prevention services. These partners are contractually bound to uphold our privacy standards.

Legal Obligations

We may be required to disclose information under a court order, a lawful request from an investigating authority, or applicable law. In such cases we will disclose only the minimum information legally required.

With Your Consent

After obtaining your clear and informed consent, we may share information beyond the categories above. This consent may be withdrawn at any time.

We never share your personal information with unauthorised advertisers, data brokers, or social media platforms.

Data Security Measures

j188 follows industry-standard technology and processes to protect your information. The key pillars of our security framework are described below.

SSL/TLS Encryption

All data transmission on our platform is protected by SSL/TLS encryption, which prevents third-party access during transmission.

Access Controls

Only authorised personnel can access personal data. Every access is logged and regularly audited.

Data Encryption (At Rest)

Stored sensitive information is kept in encrypted format. Passwords are never stored directly — only one-way hashes are used.

Security Testing

Our systems undergo regular security assessments. When new vulnerabilities are identified, remediation steps are taken promptly.

Although we apply the highest security measures, no system on the internet is 100% secure. If we become aware of a security breach, we will notify you in a timely manner in accordance with legal guidance.
