Six core data protection principles that underpin how pkr188 handles your personal information.
pkr188 collects only the personal data that is strictly necessary to operate the platform, fulfil legal obligations and provide our services. We do not collect data speculatively or beyond what is operationally required.
Your personal data is never sold to third-party marketing organisations, advertisers or data brokers. pkr188 does not monetise user data. Any data sharing with third parties is limited to service-delivery purposes and is governed by data processing agreements.
All personal data held by pkr188 is protected using industry-standard security measures, including encryption in transit (TLS) and encryption at rest. Access to personal data is restricted to authorised personnel only, on a strict need-to-know basis.
You have the right to access, correct, export and request deletion of your personal data held by pkr188. You may also object to certain processing activities or withdraw consent where consent is the lawful basis for processing. Details are set out in Section 9.
pkr188 does not retain personal data indefinitely. Retention periods are set in accordance with legal obligations, regulatory requirements and operational necessity. Data is deleted or anonymised once its retention purpose is fulfilled.
This Privacy Policy is written in plain English and kept up to date. If material changes are made to how we process your data, we will notify registered users and update the effective date at the top of this document. You will never be surprised by undisclosed data practices.
This Privacy Policy describes how pkr188 (referred to as "pkr188", "we", "us" or "our") collects, uses, stores, shares and protects the personal data of individuals who access or use the website located at pkr188.cam (the "Platform").
pkr188 is an English-language online casino and sports betting information platform designed for Pakistani users. We are committed to handling personal data responsibly, transparently and in accordance with applicable data protection standards. This Privacy Policy applies to all users of the Platform, whether registered or unregistered, and regardless of their country of access.
This Policy should be read alongside our Terms & Conditions and our Responsible Gambling Policy. Together, these documents form the complete framework governing your use of pkr188 and our obligations to you.
For the purposes of this Privacy Policy, the following terms have the meanings set out below:
| Term | Meaning |
|---|---|
| "Personal Data" | Any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person — including name, email address, IP address, device identifiers and payment references. |
| "Processing" | Any operation or set of operations performed on personal data, including collection, recording, storage, adaptation, retrieval, use, disclosure or deletion. |
| "Data Controller" | pkr188, which determines the purposes and means of processing personal data collected through the Platform. |
| "Data Processor" | Any third-party service provider that processes personal data on behalf of pkr188 under a data processing agreement. |
| "User" / "You" | Any individual accessing or using the Platform, whether registered or unregistered. |
| "Consent" | A freely given, specific, informed and unambiguous indication of agreement to the processing of personal data, provided by a clear affirmative action. |
| "Cookies" | Small text files stored on a user's device by a web browser, used to record session information, preferences and analytics data. |
| "KYC" | Know Your Customer — the identity and address verification process required before processing withdrawals, involving government-issued identification documents. |
pkr188 collects personal data in three ways: data you provide directly, data generated automatically through your use of the Platform, and data received from third parties in connection with service delivery.
When you register for an Account or interact with the Platform, you may provide:
When you access the Platform, certain technical data is collected automatically, including:
pkr188 may receive limited personal data from third-party identity verification providers engaged to support KYC processes, fraud prevention services, and analytics platforms operating under data processing agreements. In all cases, such data is received solely for the purpose of service delivery and is handled in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
pkr188 processes personal data only where a valid lawful basis exists. The applicable lawful bases for our processing activities are as follows:
Processing required to perform our obligations under the Terms & Conditions — including account registration, KYC verification and customer support responses.
Processing required to comply with applicable laws — including Anti-Money Laundering (AML), Counter-Financing of Terrorism (CFT) and identity verification regulations.
Processing for fraud prevention, platform security, analytics and service improvement — where our interests are not overridden by your privacy rights.
Processing for optional marketing communications — where you have provided explicit consent. Consent may be withdrawn at any time by contacting support or adjusting account communication preferences.
pkr188 uses personal data for the following specific purposes:
| Purpose | Description |
|---|---|
| Account Management | Creating, maintaining and operating your registered Account, including password management and security configuration. |
| Identity Verification (KYC) | Verifying your identity and age to comply with regulatory requirements before processing withdrawals or granting access to certain platform features. |
| Customer Support | Responding to your enquiries, resolving disputes and providing assistance in English and Urdu during support hours. |
| Transaction Processing | Facilitating deposits, withdrawals and payment verification. Payment data is handled in accordance with applicable financial security standards. |
| Fraud & AML Compliance | Monitoring account activity for signs of fraudulent behaviour, bonus abuse, money laundering or terrorist financing, and reporting as required by law. |
| Responsible Gambling | Monitoring gambling patterns for responsible gambling purposes, facilitating self-exclusion requests and administering deposit/loss/session limits. |
| Platform Analytics | Analysing usage patterns and navigation data to improve platform performance, content quality and user experience — on a pseudonymised basis where possible. |
| Marketing (Consent-Based) | Sending promotional communications about pkr188 offers and platform updates — only where you have provided explicit prior consent. You may opt out at any time. |
| Legal Compliance | Meeting our obligations under applicable laws, including responding to lawful requests from regulatory authorities, courts and law enforcement agencies. |
pkr188 does not sell your personal data. We share personal data only in the limited circumstances set out below, and only to the extent strictly necessary for the stated purpose.
pkr188 engages third-party service providers to assist with platform operations, including identity verification providers, cloud hosting services, customer support tools and analytics platforms. All such providers operate under formal data processing agreements and are prohibited from using your data for any purpose other than the contracted service.
pkr188 may disclose personal data to regulatory authorities, law enforcement agencies or courts where required to do so by applicable law, a court order, or a lawful regulatory request. We will notify you of any such disclosure where we are legally permitted to do so.
In the event of a merger, acquisition, restructuring or sale of all or substantially all of pkr188's assets, personal data held by pkr188 may be transferred to the acquiring entity as part of the transaction. Affected users will be notified of any such transfer and the applicable privacy terms of the acquiring entity.
pkr188 does not share, rent or sell personal data to third-party marketing organisations, advertising networks or data brokers. Payment provider names referenced on the Platform (including Easypaisa, JazzCash, Raast, HBL, UBL, Meezan Bank and Bank Alfalah) are contextual familiarity references only — pkr188 has no data-sharing arrangement with any of these organisations.
pkr188 retains personal data only for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected, or as required by applicable law. The following general retention principles apply:
Upon expiry of the applicable retention period, personal data is securely deleted or anonymised so that it can no longer be attributed to an identifiable individual.
pkr188 takes the security of your personal data seriously. We implement a combination of technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, destruction or alteration.
All data transmitted between your browser and pkr188 servers is encrypted using Transport Layer Security (TLS). Look for the padlock symbol and "https" in your browser address bar when accessing pkr188.cam.
Sensitive personal data stored on pkr188 servers — including KYC documents and payment details — is encrypted at rest using industry-standard encryption protocols.
Access to personal data is restricted to authorised personnel on a strict need-to-know basis. All personnel with data access are subject to confidentiality obligations and receive regular data protection training.
pkr188 maintains an incident response procedure. In the event of a personal data breach that poses a risk to your rights, we will notify affected users and, where legally required, the relevant supervisory authority, within the applicable timeframe.
While pkr188 takes all reasonable steps to protect your personal data, no system is completely impenetrable. You are also responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your Account credentials. If you suspect your Account has been compromised, contact support immediately.
Depending on applicable data protection legislation, you may have some or all of the following rights in respect of your personal data held by pkr188. To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the details in Section 15.
Request a copy of the personal data pkr188 holds about you, along with information about how it is used and shared. We will respond within 30 days of a valid request.
Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal data held about you. You can update many basic Account details directly in your profile settings.
Request deletion of your personal data where it is no longer necessary for the purpose it was collected. This right is subject to legal retention obligations that may require us to retain certain data.
Request that we restrict processing of your personal data in certain circumstances — for example, while the accuracy of data is being contested or while an objection is being assessed.
Where processing is based on consent or contractual necessity and is carried out by automated means, you may request your personal data in a structured, machine-readable format.
Object to processing based on legitimate interests, including profiling and direct marketing. Where marketing is the basis, we will stop immediately. For other processing, we will assess and respond to your objection.
pkr188 uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to operate the Platform, analyse usage patterns and — where consent has been given — deliver relevant content. The following categories of cookies are used:
| Cookie Category | Purpose & Basis |
|---|---|
| Strictly Necessary | Essential for platform operation — including session management, login authentication and security functions. These cannot be disabled without breaking core platform functionality. Lawful basis: contractual necessity. |
| Functional | Remember your preferences and settings — such as language, region and display options — to personalise your experience across sessions. Lawful basis: legitimate interests / consent. |
| Analytics | Collect aggregated, pseudonymised data on page visits, session durations and navigation patterns to help us improve content quality and platform performance. Lawful basis: legitimate interests / consent. |
| Marketing (Optional) | Track interactions with promotional content and measure campaign effectiveness — only where you have provided explicit consent. You may withdraw consent at any time through your browser settings. |
You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings. Most modern browsers allow you to block or delete cookies. Note that disabling strictly necessary cookies will affect platform functionality. For detailed guidance, refer to your browser's help documentation.
pkr188 may transfer personal data to countries outside your country of residence, including countries that may not provide the same level of data protection as applicable local law. Where such transfers occur, pkr188 implements appropriate safeguards to protect your data, which may include:
By using the Platform, you acknowledge that your personal data may be processed in jurisdictions outside Pakistan. If you have questions about the safeguards applicable to a specific transfer, please contact us using the details in Section 15.
The pkr188 Platform is strictly for adults aged 18 years or older — or such higher minimum age as required by the applicable operator's licence jurisdiction. pkr188 does not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under the applicable minimum age.
If you are a parent or guardian and believe that a minor has registered on pkr188 or provided personal data without your consent, please contact us immediately using the details in Section 15. Upon verification, we will promptly close the minor's Account and delete all associated personal data.
pkr188 recommends that parents and guardians use parental control software and discuss responsible internet usage with minors. Our Responsible Gambling page contains further guidance on protecting vulnerable individuals, including minors.
The Platform may contain references to third-party platforms, services or operators. pkr188 does not control the data practices of any third party. When you access a third-party platform — including any linked operator — you are subject to that party's privacy policy, not this one.
pkr188 is not responsible for the privacy practices, data security measures or content of any third-party website or service. We recommend that you review the privacy policy of any third-party platform before providing personal data to that platform.
pkr188 reserves the right to update or amend this Privacy Policy at any time. When material changes are made, the Effective Date at the top of this document will be updated accordingly. For significant changes that materially affect how we process your personal data, we will notify registered users via email or an on-platform notice prior to the changes taking effect.
Your continued use of the Platform following publication of an updated Privacy Policy constitutes your acknowledgement of the changes. If you do not agree to the updated policy, you must discontinue use of the Platform and may request Account closure in accordance with our Terms & Conditions.
We encourage all users to review this page periodically to remain informed of the current version of our Privacy Policy.
