1. Introduction
This Privacy Policy ("Policy") sets out how ppkr98, operating at ppkr98.cam ("Platform", "We", "Us", "Our"), collects, uses, stores, shares and protects personal data provided by or relating to users ("You", "User") of the Platform.
ppkr98 is an English-language online betting information platform primarily serving users in Pakistan.

This Policy is provided for transparency. It does not constitute legal advice and does not guarantee compliance with any specific Pakistani regulatory requirement unless directly applicable.

- Full legal name
- Date of birth
- Residential address
- Email address
- Mobile phone number
- Username and encrypted password
3.2 Identity Verification (KYC) Documents
To comply with KYC and AML obligations, we may request and process:

- Bonus activations, wagering activity and balance history.
Payment method names such as Easypaisa, JazzCash, Raast, HBL, UBL, Meezan Bank and Bank Alfalah may appear in transaction records as familiar Pakistani payment references. Their appearance in records does not imply endorsement of or affiliation with gambling by any of these providers.
3.4 Device & Technical Data
We automatically collect technical data when you access the Platform, including IP address, browser type and version, operating system, device identifiers, referring URLs, pages visited and session duration. This data is used for security monitoring, fraud detection and platform performance optimisation.
3.5 Communications Data
If you contact our support team via Live Chat, Help Center or email, we retain records of that communication including the content, timestamps and any attachments submitted. This assists in resolving disputes, improving support quality and maintaining regulatory records.
4. Purpose & Legal Basis for Processing
We process personal data only for specific, legitimate purposes. The table below outlines the primary purposes and the legal basis for each:
| Purpose | Legal Basis |
|---|---|
| Account registration and management | Performance of contract — necessary to provide the service. |
| Identity verification (KYC) | Legal obligation — required under applicable AML and gambling regulations. |

5. Data Sharing & Disclosure
ppkr98 does not sell, rent or trade personal data to third parties for their own marketing purposes. Personal data is shared only in the limited circumstances described below:
5.1 Licensed Operators
Where the Platform facilitates access to a licensed gambling operator's services, relevant personal data (including registration details and KYC documents) may be shared with that operator for account creation, verification and regulatory compliance purposes.
5.2 KYC and Identity Verification Providers
We engage regulated third-party identity verification services to process KYC documents. These providers act as Data Processors under binding contractual obligations and are prohibited from using your data for any purpose other than identity verification.
5.3 Payment Processors
Transaction data is shared with payment processors as necessary to complete deposits and withdrawals. Payment processors operate under their own privacy policies and are subject to applicable financial regulation.
5.4 Regulatory and Law Enforcement Bodies
We may disclose personal data to regulators, law enforcement agencies or other competent authorities where required by applicable law, court order, regulatory direction or where we have a good-faith belief that disclosure is necessary to prevent fraud, money laundering or other unlawful activity.
5.5 Business Transfers
In the event of a merger, acquisition, sale of assets or other corporate restructuring, personal data may be transferred to the acquiring entity. Users will be notified of any material change in data controller through a Platform notice.
All third parties who process personal data on our behalf are required to implement appropriate technical and organisational security measures and may not use your personal data for any purpose beyond what is strictly necessary for the services they provide.
6. Data Retention
Personal data is retained for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by applicable law and regulatory obligation. The following principles apply:
- Active Accounts: Personal data is retained for the full duration of an active account relationship.
- Closed Accounts: Following account closure, data may be retained for a minimum period in accordance with AML, gambling licensing and financial record-keeping requirements — typically five to seven years from the date of closure or last transaction, depending on applicable regulation.
- KYC Documents: Identity documents submitted for verification are retained for the period required by applicable AML regulations, which in many licensing jurisdictions is a minimum of five years.
- Communications Records: Support communications are retained for a period sufficient to resolve any related disputes and comply with regulatory record-keeping obligations.
- Marketing Data: If you withdraw consent for marketing communications, your contact details will be suppressed from marketing lists promptly, though they may be retained in compliance records.
Once the applicable retention period expires and there is no ongoing legal obligation requiring continued storage, personal data is securely deleted or anonymised.
7. Data Security
ppkr98 applies technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal data against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration and destruction. These measures include:
- HTTPS/SSL Encryption: All data transmitted between your device and the Platform is encrypted using industry-standard Transport Layer Security (TLS).
- Access Controls: Access to personal data is restricted to authorised personnel on a need-to-know basis, with role-based access controls enforced.
- Secure Storage: Data at rest is stored with appropriate encryption and physical security controls.
- Fraud Monitoring: Automated systems monitor for unusual account activity, unauthorised login attempts and suspicious transaction patterns.
- Third-Party Security: Service providers are assessed for their data security practices before engagement and are required to maintain appropriate safeguards.
No transmission method over the internet is 100% secure. While we apply industry-standard safeguards, we cannot guarantee absolute security of data in transit or storage. In the event of a data breach that is likely to result in a risk to your rights and freedoms, we will notify you and, where required, the relevant supervisory authority, in accordance with applicable data breach notification obligations.

Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
Right to Rectification
Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal data.
Right to Erasure

We will respond to valid requests within a reasonable timeframe consistent with applicable data protection obligations. We may request verification of your identity before processing a rights request to protect against unauthorised disclosure.

10. Minors & Age Policy
The Platform is strictly for adults aged 18 years or older, or the higher minimum age required by the applicable operator or license jurisdiction. ppkr98 does not knowingly collect personal data from individuals below the applicable minimum age.
Age verification is conducted as part of the KYC process. If we become aware that personal data has been collected from a minor, we will take immediate steps to close the relevant account, void all associated transactions and delete the data in accordance with applicable law.
🔞 Adults 18+ only. Being 18 years of age does not automatically render gambling lawful in Pakistan. Users are responsible for understanding and complying with all local laws applicable to their participation in online gambling. This Policy does not constitute legal advice.
11. International Data Transfers
Personal data collected through the Platform may be transferred to and processed in jurisdictions outside Pakistan, including the jurisdiction in which the linked operator holds its gambling license. Such transfers occur where necessary to provide the service, process payments, conduct identity verification or comply with regulatory requirements.
Where personal data is transferred internationally, we take reasonable steps to ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place — including contractual obligations on receiving parties that require equivalent levels of data protection to those described in this Policy.
12. Changes to This Privacy Policy
ppkr98 reserves the right to update this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in our data practices, applicable law or Platform functionality. The "Last updated" date at the top of this document will reflect the date of any material revision.
For material changes that significantly affect how we process your personal data, we will provide notice through a Platform notification prior to the change taking effect. Continued use of the Platform following notification of a revised Policy constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
We recommend reviewing this Privacy Policy periodically to remain informed of how your personal data is handled.
