Your privacy matters at pak98. This policy explains exactly what personal data we collect, why we collect it, how it is stored, who it is shared with, and what rights you have as a Pakistani player using our platform.
These are the core principles that shape every data decision we make at pak98. Not marketing copy — actual operational commitments.
pak98 collects only the personal data that is strictly necessary to provide our services, verify your identity, and comply with anti-money laundering obligations. We do not collect data speculatively or for resale purposes.
Your personal information is never sold, rented, or traded to third-party marketers. Data sharing is limited to essential service providers operating under strict contractual confidentiality obligations with pak98.
pak98 actively encourages USDT and Bitcoin transactions specifically because they offer a higher degree of financial privacy than traditional banking channels — without sacrificing platform security or KYC compliance.
All data transmitted between your device and pak98's servers is protected by 256-bit TLS encryption. Account data at rest is stored in encrypted form. Our infrastructure undergoes regular independent security audits.
You have the right to access, correct, restrict, or request deletion of your personal data held by pak98 at any time. All such requests are processed within 30 days of receipt without requiring justification from you.
We document every category of data we collect, every purpose it serves, and every party it is shared with. This Privacy Policy is written in plain language — not buried in footnotes or obfuscated by legal jargon where avoidable.
pak98 ("we", "us", "our", "the Platform") is committed to protecting the privacy and personal data of every player who accesses or uses the pak98 platform at https://pak98.bet. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, share, and protect your personal information in connection with our online sports betting, live casino, slot games, crypto wallet services, and all related promotional activities.
This policy applies to all users who register an account, browse the platform, contact our support team, or interact with pak98 in any capacity. By using the pak98 platform, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy and consent to the data practices described herein.
For the purposes of applicable data protection law, pak98 acts as the data controller in respect of all personal data collected through the platform. As data controller, pak98 determines the purposes for which and the means by which your personal data is processed.
pak98 operates under international gaming licence standards. All data processing activities conducted by pak98 are governed by the data protection obligations imposed under the relevant international regulatory framework applicable to our operating licence jurisdiction.
Where pak98 engages third-party service providers to process personal data on its behalf — such as payment processors, KYC verification providers, and IT infrastructure partners — those parties act as data processors and are contractually bound to process data only in accordance with pak98's documented instructions and applicable data protection law.

pak98 processes your personal data on the following legal bases, depending on the specific processing activity:
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit the pak98 website. They allow the platform to recognise your device on subsequent visits, maintain your session state, and analyse how the site is being used to make improvements.
You can manage or disable non-essential cookies through your browser settings at any time. Note that disabling essential cookies will prevent you from accessing your pak98 account. pak98 does not use third-party advertising cookies or cross-site tracking technologies.
pak98 shares your personal data only in the following strictly defined circumstances:
We share data with carefully vetted third-party service providers who assist in delivering the pak98 platform. These include KYC identity verification providers, payment gateway processors (covering JazzCash, EasyPaisa, HBL, UBL, Meezan Bank, and crypto networks), cloud hosting providers, and cybersecurity partners. All such providers operate under binding data processing agreements with pak98.
pak98 may disclose personal data to regulatory bodies, law enforcement agencies, or courts where required to do so by applicable law, court order, or in response to a lawful request from a competent authority. We will notify you of any such disclosure to the extent permitted by law.
In the event that pak98 undergoes a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your personal data may be transferred to the acquiring entity as part of that transaction. In such circumstances, you will be notified in advance and your data will continue to be handled in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
pak98 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to any third party for marketing purposes. We do not share your data with data brokers, advertising networks, social media platforms, or any party not directly involved in delivering the pak98 service to you.
pak98 processes cryptocurrency transactions — including Bitcoin (BTC) and USDT — with particular care given to the financial privacy expectations associated with crypto-native players in Pakistan.
Please note that all on-chain Bitcoin and USDT transactions are inherently recorded on public blockchains. pak98 cannot control the public visibility of on-chain transaction data. However, pak98 does not publish, share, or cross-reference your blockchain wallet addresses with any third party beyond what is required for AML compliance screening.
For JazzCash, EasyPaisa, and bank transfer transactions, pak98 collects and processes only the account reference details necessary to complete the transaction. This data is shared exclusively with the relevant payment gateway provider and is not retained beyond the period required for transaction reconciliation and AML record-keeping.
pak98 retains your personal data only for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by applicable legal and regulatory obligations. The key retention periods applicable to different data categories are set out in the table under Section 4 of this policy.
Upon expiry of the relevant retention period, your data is securely deleted or anonymised in a manner that prevents re-identification. Where data has been anonymised for statistical or analytical purposes, it may be retained indefinitely as it no longer constitutes personal data.
Retention periods for financial and KYC data are primarily driven by anti-money laundering legislation, which requires gaming operators to retain transaction records and identity verification documents for a minimum of five to seven years regardless of account status.
As an internationally operated platform, pak98 may transfer your personal data to servers and service providers located outside Pakistan. Where such transfers occur, pak98 ensures that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your data to a standard equivalent to that provided under applicable data protection law.
Safeguards used by pak98 for international data transfers include: contractual data transfer agreements with receiving parties incorporating standard data protection clauses, transfer to jurisdictions that maintain an adequate level of data protection as determined by recognised international frameworks, and technical security measures including end-to-end encryption of data in transit.
pak98 implements a comprehensive set of technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, destruction, or alteration. These measures include:
In the event of a personal data breach that is likely to result in a risk to your rights and freedoms, pak98 will notify affected players without undue delay and take all reasonable steps to contain and remediate the breach.
The pak98 platform is strictly restricted to individuals aged 21 and above. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under the age of 21. If pak98 becomes aware that personal data has been collected from a person under 21, that account will be immediately suspended, the data will be securely deleted, and any balance will be reviewed and returned where appropriate.
If you are a parent or guardian and believe that a person under 21 in your care has registered on pak98, please contact our support team immediately. We will investigate and take prompt action in accordance with our responsible gaming and child protection obligations.
For further information on our responsible gaming tools and 21+ age enforcement measures, please visit our Responsible Gaming page.
