In certain circumstances, 898pkr may receive data about you from third-party identity verification providers, payment processors (such as EasyPaisa and JazzCash), fraud prevention agencies, and sanctions screening databases.

• Consent: Processing based on your explicit consent, particularly in relation to marketing communications and certain cookie categories. You may withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out prior to withdrawal.

898pkr does not sell your personal data. We share data only with the categories of third parties listed below, and only to the extent necessary for the stated purpose:

6.1 Payment Processors

Financial data (such as your EasyPaisa or JazzCash account number) is shared with the relevant payment service provider solely for the purpose of processing your deposit or withdrawal. EasyPaisa and JazzCash operate under their own privacy policies and are subject to Pakistan's banking and financial regulations.

6.2 Identity Verification Providers

Identity data and verification documents may be shared with licensed third-party KYC and identity verification service providers for the purpose of confirming your identity and age as required by our gaming license. These providers are bound by confidentiality agreements and data processing agreements with 898pkr.

6.3 Fraud Prevention & AML Agencies

898pkr may share data with fraud prevention agencies and sanctions screening databases for the purpose of detecting and preventing fraud, money laundering, and other prohibited financial activities. In certain circumstances, data may be shared with law enforcement authorities where legally required.

6.4 Technology & Infrastructure Providers

Data may be processed by third-party cloud infrastructure, hosting, and platform technology providers engaged by 898pkr to operate the platform. These providers act as data processors under binding agreements and are not permitted to use player data for their own purposes.

6.5 Regulatory & Licensing Authorities

898pkr may be required to disclose player data to its international gaming license authority or other competent regulatory bodies as part of license compliance obligations.

898pkr uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to operate the platform, maintain your session, detect fraud, and (with your consent) analyse usage patterns to improve the platform.

7.1 Essential Cookies

These cookies are strictly necessary for the 898pkr platform to function. They maintain your login session, preserve your language and currency preferences, and enable core security features. Essential cookies cannot be disabled without preventing the platform from operating correctly.

7.2 Analytics Cookies

With your consent, 898pkr uses analytics cookies to collect anonymised information about how players use the platform — such as which games are most popular, average session durations, and navigation patterns. This data is used exclusively to improve the platform and is not used to identify individual players.

7.3 Security & Fraud Detection

898pkr uses technical cookies and device fingerprinting technologies for the purpose of detecting fraud, identifying account takeover attempts, and enforcing the one-account-per-player policy. This processing is carried out on the basis of legitimate interests in platform security.

You may manage cookie preferences through your browser settings. Disabling non-essential cookies will not affect your ability to use the core functions of the 898pkr platform.

898pkr retains personal data for the periods set out below. After these periods expire, data is securely deleted or anonymised unless retention is required by applicable law.

Accounts that have been inactive for more than 36 consecutive months may be subject to dormancy processing. Players will be notified before any dormancy action is taken and given the opportunity to reactivate their account.

898pkr implements a multi-layered technical and organisational security framework to protect player data from unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.

• Encryption in Transit: All data transmitted between your device and the 898pkr platform is encrypted using TLS 1.3 with 256-bit SSL certificates.
• Encryption at Rest: Sensitive data stored in 898pkr databases is encrypted at rest using AES-256 encryption.
• Password Security: Player passwords are stored as bcrypt hashes with per-user salts. Plain-text passwords are never stored or logged.
• Access Controls: Internal access to player data is restricted to authorised staff on a need-to-know basis. All internal access is logged and audited.
• Two-Factor Authentication: OTP-based verification is available for account login and is strongly encouraged for all 898pkr players.
• Security Audits: The 898pkr platform undergoes regular security assessments as part of our international gaming license obligations.
• Incident Response: 898pkr maintains a documented incident response plan. In the event of a breach affecting player data, affected players will be notified promptly.

As 898pkr operates under an international gaming license, some personal data may be processed or stored on servers located outside Pakistan. Where personal data is transferred internationally, 898pkr ensures that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your data, including:

• Contractual data processing agreements with all third-party processors that impose equivalent data protection obligations.
• Transfer to jurisdictions that maintain adequate data protection standards as assessed by 898pkr's licensing authority.
• Application of technical security measures (encryption, access controls) regardless of the jurisdiction in which data is processed.

898pkr does not transfer personal data to jurisdictions that lack adequate protections without first putting appropriate contractual safeguards in place.

Where changes are material, we will notify registered players via their registered mobile number or email address prior to the changes taking effect. The updated policy will be published on this page with a revised effective date.

Continued use of the 898pkr platform after the effective date of any revised Privacy Policy constitutes your acceptance of the updated terms. If you do not agree with any changes, you should discontinue use of the platform and may request account closure by contacting our support team.
