01 Introduction and Scope of This Policy
This Privacy Policy ("Policy") describes how 1971tk ("the Company", "we", "us", "our"), the operator of the online gaming and sports betting platform at https://1971tk.bio ("the Platform"), collects, processes, stores, and protects personal data belonging to players, registered account holders, and visitors ("you", "your") who interact with the Platform.

Scope: This Policy applies to all players accessing 1971tk from Bangladesh and any other jurisdiction. By registering an account or continuing to use the Platform, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy in its entirety.

03 How We Collect Your Personal Data
1971tk collects your personal data through a combination of direct submission by you and automated technical processes. The primary collection methods are as follows:
- Directly from you when you complete the account registration form, submit KYC verification documents, make a deposit or withdrawal request, contact our support team, or respond to a survey or promotion.
- Automatically through cookies, web beacons, and similar tracking technologies when you browse the Platform. These technologies allow us to recognise your device and remember your preferences across sessions.
- From payment processors and financial service providers (such as bKash, Nagad, Rocket, and Upay) when you initiate a transaction, to the extent necessary to confirm payment status and prevent fraud.
- From identity verification and KYC service providers that we engage to confirm the authenticity of identity documents submitted during the account verification process.
- From fraud detection and anti-money laundering (AML) screening services that cross-reference your details against relevant databases to fulfil our legal compliance obligations.
Cookies: 1971tk uses strictly necessary, functional, and analytics cookies to operate the Platform effectively. You may manage your cookie preferences through your browser settings. Disabling certain cookies may affect Platform functionality. We do not use third-party advertising cookies to track you across other websites.

You can control cookie settings through your browser's privacy preferences. Please note that blocking strictly necessary cookies will prevent you from logging in and using the Platform. For more granular control, you may also adjust cookie settings within your account preferences panel once logged in.
