4 Legal Basis for Processing Your Data

Every time 1971 bet processes your personal data, we do so on one of the following legal grounds. We rely on the most appropriate basis for each specific processing activity:

• Contract performance — processing your data is necessary to fulfil our obligations to you as a registered player, including managing your account and processing payments.
• Legal obligation — we are required by law to collect and retain certain data, including identity verification records and transaction histories, for anti-money laundering and fraud prevention purposes.
• Legitimate interests — we process certain data to protect the security and integrity of the platform, to prevent fraud and to improve our services, provided this does not override your rights.
• Consent — where we send you marketing communications or use non-essential cookies, we do so only with your explicit consent, which you can withdraw at any time.

5 Sharing Your Data with Third Parties

1971 bet does not sell your personal data to third parties. However, in order to operate the platform effectively and comply with legal requirements, we may share your data with the following categories of third parties in limited and controlled circumstances:

• Payment processors — bKash, Nagad and Rocket receive the minimum data necessary to process your transactions. They operate under their own privacy policies and are bound by applicable financial regulations.
• Identity verification providers — where we use third-party services to verify your identity documents, those providers receive only the data required for verification purposes.
• IT and security providers — companies that help us maintain and secure the platform infrastructure may have access to technical data as part of their service delivery.
• Law enforcement and regulators — we may be required by law to disclose your data to government authorities, law enforcement agencies or regulators. We will only do so when legally obligated.

All third parties with whom we share data are required to handle it securely and in accordance with applicable data protection standards. We do not permit third parties to use your data for their own marketing purposes.
