4. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

The vh999 website uses cookies and similar technologies to improve your browsing experience. Cookies are small text files stored on your device that help remember your preferences and session information on future visits.

4.1 Types of Cookies We Use

• Essential Cookies: Indispensable for the basic operation of the platform. These cannot be disabled.
• Functional Cookies: Used to remember your preferences, language settings, and account information.
• Analytical Cookies: Used to understand site traffic patterns. This information is collected entirely anonymously.

You can reject or delete non-essential cookies by changing your browser settings. However, this may limit some features of the platform.

5. Data Storage and Security

vh999 takes industry-standard technical and organisational measures to ensure the security of your personal information:

• SSL/TLS encryption is used for all data transmission and storage.
• Passwords are protected by strong cryptographic hashing algorithms — no staff member can view passwords directly.
• Least-privilege access policy: only authorised staff can access relevant and necessary data.
• Regular security audits and vulnerability assessments (penetration testing) are conducted.
• Automated monitoring systems are kept active to detect unusual access or activity.

5.1 Data Retention Period

We retain your personal information for as long as your account is active or as needed to meet our legal obligations. Financial transaction records are retained for a specified period in accordance with applicable laws in Bangladesh.

If you request account closure, we will delete your information as soon as reasonably possible — except for the portion that must be retained to meet legal compliance requirements.

6. Data Sharing and Third Parties

We may share your information with third parties only in the following limited circumstances:

6.1 Service Provider Partners

To operate our services, we work with selected third-party operators — such as payment processing companies (for transactions related to bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay), identity verification services, and technology infrastructure providers. These partners operate under strict confidentiality agreements and may only access the information necessary for their designated tasks.

6.2 Legal Obligations

We may be legally required to provide specific information in response to court orders, lawful requests from government regulatory authorities, or national security requirements.

6.3 Fraud and Money Laundering Prevention

Information may be shared with relevant authorities as part of fraud investigations or anti-money laundering (AML) activities. This is done solely to protect the interests of legitimate users.
