hehe5 Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

hehe5 ("we", "us", or "our") operates hehe5.club as a secure online gaming destination serving players across Bangladesh. We take the privacy of our users seriously. This Privacy Policy explains what personal information we collect when you use our platform, why we collect it, how we use it, and the choices you have regarding your information.

By accessing or using hehe5's services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to the data practices described in this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with any part of this policy, please discontinue use of our platform immediately. This policy applies to all users who access the site from Bangladesh and any other jurisdiction.

2. Information We Collect

We collect information in two principal ways: information you provide directly to us when you register or use our services, and information collected automatically when you interact with our platform.

Information You Provide Directly

• Full name, date of birth, and national ID or passport details for identity verification purposes.
• Contact information including email address, mobile phone number, and address (city, district) within Bangladesh.
• Account credentials such as username and an encrypted password (we never store your plain-text password).
• Payment-related information necessary to process deposits and withdrawals via bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay, Visa, or Mastercard.
• Communications and correspondence when you contact our support team, including chat logs and email exchanges.

Information Collected Automatically

• Device and browser data: IP address, browser type and version, operating system, screen resolution, and device identifiers.
• Usage data: pages visited, time spent on each section, games played, bet amounts placed, and navigation paths within the platform.
• Location data: approximate geographic location derived from your IP address (country and city level only; we do not access your device's GPS).
• Cookie and session data: session tokens, preferences, and analytics identifiers stored in your browser (see the Cookies section below for full details).

3. How We Use Your Information

hehe5 uses your personal information strictly for legitimate operational and regulatory purposes. Specifically, we use your data to:

• Create and manage your hehe5 account, verify your identity, and maintain account security at all times.
• Process financial transactions including deposits via bKash, Nagad, and Rocket, and withdrawals to your registered mobile banking account.
• Deliver personalised gaming experiences, bonus offers, and promotional communications relevant to your activity and preferences.
• Detect and prevent fraudulent activity, money laundering, underage gambling, and any other misuse of the platform.
• Provide responsive customer support, resolve disputes, and respond to queries submitted through our support channels.
• Comply with applicable laws and regulatory obligations, and enforce our Terms & Conditions and responsible gaming commitments.

4. Data Sharing and Disclosure

hehe5 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties for their marketing purposes. We share data only in the limited circumstances described below.

Service Providers

We engage trusted third-party service providers — including payment processors, fraud detection partners, KYC verification services, and technical infrastructure providers — who assist us in operating the platform. These providers access only the data necessary to perform their specific functions and are contractually obligated to maintain confidentiality and handle data securely.

Legal and Regulatory Obligations

We may disclose your personal information when required to do so by law, court order, or regulatory authority. We may also share information when we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect our legal rights, prevent fraud, or ensure the safety of users and the public.

Business Transfers

In the event of a merger, acquisition, asset sale, or corporate restructuring, user data may be transferred to the succeeding entity. We will notify users of any such change with adequate advance notice and will ensure the receiving party adheres to equivalent data protection standards.

5. Payment Data and Security

All financial transactions on hehe5 are processed using industry-standard SSL (Secure Socket Layer) encryption. We do not store full payment card numbers or full mobile banking PIN codes on our servers. Payment data is handled by PCI-DSS compliant processors, and mobile financial service transactions via bKash, Nagad, Rocket, and Upay are processed through their respective secure APIs.

Our security practices include regular vulnerability assessments, access controls that limit data access to authorised personnel on a need-to-know basis, and encrypted storage of sensitive user records. While no online system is entirely risk-free, hehe5 maintains rigorous technical and organisational safeguards to protect your financial and personal data.

6. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

hehe5 uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your experience on the platform. Cookies are small data files stored in your browser. We use three categories of cookies:

• Essential cookies: Required for the platform to function correctly — session management, login authentication, and security tokens. These cannot be disabled without impairing site functionality.
• Functional cookies: Remember your preferences such as language, preferred payment method, and recent game history to personalise your experience on subsequent visits.
• Analytics cookies: Help us understand how users navigate the site, which games are most popular, and where users encounter difficulties, so we can continuously improve our platform.

You can control cookie settings through your browser preferences. Disabling cookies may affect platform functionality. By continuing to use hehe5, you consent to our use of cookies as described above.

7. Data Retention

We retain your personal data only for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, or as required by applicable law. Account information is generally retained for the duration of your active membership plus a minimum of five (5) years thereafter to comply with anti-money laundering and record-keeping obligations.

When we no longer have a lawful basis to retain your data, we will securely delete or anonymise it so that it can no longer be linked to you personally. Transaction records required for financial auditing may be retained in anonymised form for longer periods.
