Sharing Information with Third Parties
criex does not sell or rent your personal information. However, limited information may be shared with trusted third parties to provide specific services:
5.1 Payment Processors
Transaction-related information necessary to process deposits and withdrawals is shared with bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay, and associated banks. These organisations have their own privacy policies and are bound to protect information.
5.2 Technology and Service Providers
We work with contracted third parties for server hosting, analytics, and technical services. They may only use data for the specified purpose and may not use it for any other purpose.
5.3 Legal Obligations
Information may be provided in compliance with law upon receipt of a valid order from Bangladeshi courts, government authorities, or law enforcement agencies. In such cases, users will be notified as far as possible.
Cookies and Tracking Technologies
Cookies and similar technologies are used on the criex website and app. Cookies are small text files stored in your browser or device that help improve the functionality of the platform.
6.1 Types of Cookies
- Essential cookies: For maintaining login sessions and ensuring security. These cannot be turned off.
- Functional cookies: For remembering your language and preferences.
- Analytics cookies: For understanding usage patterns on the site, which helps improve services.
- Marketing cookies: For showing relevant content based on your consent.
You can control cookies from your browser settings. However, turning off essential cookies may prevent some important features of the platform from working.
User Rights
criex believes users should have control over their own information. The following rights are therefore ensured for you:
7.1 Right to View Information
You can view the information we hold about you at any time from your account settings. For more detailed records, a request can be made to the support team.
7.2 Right to Correct Information
If any of your information is incorrect, you can request a correction. Some information can be changed directly from account settings; for others, the support team will make the change after verifying your identity.
7.3 Right to Delete Information
After account closure, as much of your information as possible will be deleted within legal and regulatory obligations. Some information may need to be kept for a set period for mandatory auditing purposes.
7.4 Right to Opt Out of Marketing Communications
To stop receiving promotional messages, use the unsubscribe option at the bottom of any message or notify the support team. Mandatory transaction-related notifications cannot be turned off.
Personal information is stored and protected under the same policy during self-exclusion or limit-setting in accordance with the Responsible Gaming Policy.
Protection of Minors
All criex services are strictly for users 21 and above. Information of anyone under 21 is not knowingly collected or stored. Age is verified at registration and additional identity documents may be requested in suspicious cases.
If we become aware that information of a minor has been collected, that account will be immediately closed and all related information will be deleted.
International Transfer of Information
For technical service requirements, information may in some cases be processed or stored on servers located outside Bangladesh. In such cases, it is ensured that the relevant third party follows equivalent or higher data protection standards and is contractually bound to protect the information.
All terms of this privacy policy remain applicable to any international data transfer.

criex may revise this privacy policy from time to time. In the event of changes:
- The "Last updated" date at the top of the page will be changed.
- For significant changes, users will be notified by email or through the platform.
