Last updated: January 2025. Please read this Privacy Policy carefully before using the y17 platform — it explains in detail how your personal data is collected, used, and kept secure.
When registering on the y17 platform, your name, email address, mobile number, and date of birth are collected. Identity verification may require your national ID card or passport details, which are stored using fully secure methods. Payment method information is collected during financial transactions, however complete card numbers or bank account details are not stored on our servers. When you use the platform, your device type, browser information, IP address, and usage patterns are automatically logged. This information is used to ensure platform security and to improve your experience. We never collect unnecessary personal data without your consent.
The data collected is primarily used to manage your account, process transactions, and provide customer support. Your usage patterns are analyzed to ensure platform security and prevent fraud. y17 may use your contact information to send you relevant offers, updates, and important notifications, though you may request to stop receiving these at any time. Data may also be used to fulfill legal obligations and meet the requirements of regulatory bodies. We never sell your data to third parties or rent it out for advertising purposes. Aggregated, non-personally identifiable data may be used for statistical analysis to improve the quality of the platform.
Y17 does not sell, rent, or commercially transfer your personal data to any third party. Limited information may be shared with trusted payment gateway partners for payment processing, and they are also bound by strict confidentiality agreements. Providing necessary information in response to a lawful order from law enforcement agencies or courts is a legal obligation on our part. Technology service providers for the platform are granted only the limited access to data required for their specific work and are obligated to comply with our privacy policy. In the event of a company merger or acquisition, users will be notified in advance. We always treat the protection of your data as our highest priority.
The y17 platform uses cookies and similar technologies to enhance your browsing experience. Essential cookies are indispensable for the platform's core functionality and the site will not work properly without them. Functional cookies remember your preferences and settings so you don't have to reconfigure everything each time you log in. Analytics cookies help us understand how users interact with the platform, which informs service improvements. You can manage cookies through your browser settings, though disabling certain cookies may limit some platform features. We do not use any third-party advertising tracking cookies.
Y17 uses industry-standard encryption technology, including SSL/TLS protocols, to protect your personal data. Our servers and databases undergo regular security audits and the latest security patches are applied. Two-factor authentication is available to prevent unauthorized access to your account, and we encourage all users to enable it. Automated alert systems are triggered when suspicious activity is detected, and accounts may be temporarily secured if necessary. Our security team monitors platform security 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. That said, no method on the internet is 100% secure, so keeping your own password and login credentials safe is equally important.
As a user in Bangladesh, you have several important rights over your own data that y17 respects. You may request to view the information stored about you at any time and submit a request to correct any inaccuracies. In certain circumstances you may request deletion of your data, though some information may need to be retained for a specified period due to legal obligations. If you wish to opt out of marketing communications, simply notify our support team at any time and we will act promptly. You also have the right to object to the processing of your data, and we take every such request seriously. To exercise these rights, contact our support team directly.
Y17 retains your personal data only for as long as it is necessary or legally required. Data associated with active accounts is kept for the duration of the account and may be retained for a specified period after the account is closed. Financial transaction records are stored for the period prescribed by applicable laws in Bangladesh. For inactive accounts, data may be automatically deleted or anonymized after a defined period. Once the retention period expires, data is destroyed by secure methods to ensure it cannot be recovered. Contact our support team for more details on data retention.
Y17 reserves the right to update this Privacy Policy as needed, and users will be notified as far in advance as possible of any significant changes. Changes to the policy take effect upon publication on the platform, and continued use of the platform after any changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy. We recommend that you visit this page regularly and stay informed about the latest updates. If you have any questions or concerns about the Privacy Policy, our support team is always ready to help. Your trust and confidence mean the most to us, and we are committed to operating with full transparency at all times.
