DoctorBangladesh.com respects the privacy of our website visitors, doctors, healthcare professionals, advertisers, and customers. This Privacy Policy explains what information we may collect, how we use it, how payment-related information is handled, and the choices available to users.

2. Payment Security
Online payments may be processed through SSLCOMMERZ or another authorized payment service provider.
Sensitive payment credentials handled on a payment provider’s payment interface are processed through that provider’s infrastructure. DoctorBangladesh.com does not intentionally request customers to send complete card credentials, PINs, OTPs, or online banking passwords through our ordinary website forms.
Customers should never provide their PIN, OTP, banking password, or similar authentication credentials to anyone claiming to represent DoctorBangladesh.com.
3. How We Use Information
Information may be used to:
- Create, verify, maintain, and update doctor profiles;
- Operate our doctor directory;
- Process paid listing and promotional services;
- Confirm transactions and payments;
- Deliver purchased digital services;
- Provide customer support;
- Respond to inquiries and correction requests;
- Moderate reviews and user submissions;
- Prevent spam, abuse, fraudulent activity, and security threats;
- Improve website functionality and performance; and
- Meet applicable legal and regulatory requirements.
4. Public Doctor Information
DoctorBangladesh.com is a public doctor directory.
Information intended for a doctor’s public professional profile—including professional name, qualifications, specialty, workplace, chamber location, visiting hours, and public appointment information—may therefore be publicly accessible.
Doctors or authorized representatives may contact us to request corrections or updates.
5. Cookies Policy
DoctorBangladesh.com may use cookies and similar technologies for website functionality, security, performance measurement, analytics, preferences, and advertising.
Cookies are small pieces of data stored through a user’s browser.
Users may control or disable cookies through their browser settings. Disabling certain cookies may affect some website functionality.
6. Analytics and Advertising
DoctorBangladesh.com may use third-party analytics and advertising services.
Such services may use cookies or similar technologies to measure website traffic, understand website usage, prevent abuse, or display advertisements.
Third-party providers may process information according to their own privacy policies.
7. Third-Party Disclosure
We do not sell private customer information as a standalone commercial product.
Information may be disclosed where reasonably necessary:
- To payment processors for processing transactions;
- To technical/service providers supporting website operations;
- Where the user has authorized disclosure;
- To investigate fraud, abuse, or security incidents; or
- Where disclosure is required under applicable law or a valid legal process.
Publicly displayed professional doctor information is not treated in the same manner as private account or payment-related information because publication is a core function of the directory.
8. Data Security
We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards intended to protect information under our control from unauthorized access, misuse, alteration, or loss.
However, no internet transmission or electronic storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
9. Data Retention
We may retain information for as long as reasonably necessary to operate our services, maintain transaction and business records, resolve disputes, prevent fraud, and comply with applicable legal or regulatory obligations.
10. External Links
DoctorBangladesh.com may link to third-party websites, hospitals, clinics, social networks, advertisers, or other services.
Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies, and users should review those policies when visiting external services.
11. Your Choices and Requests
Users may contact us regarding their personal information.
Doctors and authorized representatives may also request correction or updating of professional profile information.
Where applicable and subject to legal, record-keeping, fraud-prevention, and legitimate operational requirements, users may request correction or deletion of personal information they have submitted.
12. Children’s Privacy
DoctorBangladesh.com is primarily a healthcare information and professional directory service and is not designed to intentionally collect unnecessary personal information directly from children.
Parents or guardians who believe a child has submitted personal information to us may contact us to request appropriate action.
13. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy as our website, services, payment arrangements, or applicable requirements change.
The current version and revision date will be published on this page.
