pk836 uses your Personal Data for the following purposes only. We do not use your data for any purpose that is incompatible with the purposes listed here without first obtaining your explicit consent:

1. Account Creation and Management. To register your pk836 Account, verify your identity and age (21+), maintain your Account, and communicate with you about your Account status.

3. Payment Processing. To process deposits and withdrawals via JazzCash, EasyPaisa, HBL, UBL, Meezan Bank, Raast, 1LINK, and USDT, and to maintain accurate transaction records in PKR.
4. KYC and Regulatory Compliance. To verify your identity and age in accordance with our licensing obligations and applicable anti-money-laundering (AML) and counter-terrorism financing (CTF) regulations.
5. Fraud Prevention and Security. To detect, investigate, and prevent fraudulent activity, money laundering, multi-accounting, and other prohibited conduct on the pk836 Platform.
6. Responsible Gaming. To monitor gaming patterns, enforce self-imposed player limits, identify at-risk players, and administer self-exclusion requests in accordance with our Responsible Gaming Policy.
7. Customer Support. To respond to your queries, resolve disputes, and process complaints in a timely and effective manner.
8. Platform Improvement. To analyse aggregated, anonymised usage data to improve game selection, platform performance, payment processing speed, and user experience for Pakistani players.
9. Marketing Communications. To send you promotional emails, SMS notifications, and in-platform messages about pk836 bonuses and offers — but only where you have provided explicit consent and have not subsequently opted out.

pk836 processes your Personal Data on the following legal bases, each of which applies to the specific processing activities described in Section 3:

• Contractual Necessity. Processing your Identity Data, Contact Data, Financial Data, and Gaming Activity Data is necessary to fulfil our contractual obligations to you as a registered pk836 player — i.e., to provide the Services you have signed up for.
• Legal Obligation. Processing for KYC, AML, CTF, and regulatory reporting purposes is required by applicable law and our international gaming licence conditions. We cannot waive these obligations regardless of consent.
• Legitimate Interests. Processing for fraud prevention, platform security, and aggregated analytics is based on pk836's legitimate interest in operating a secure, fair, and compliant gaming platform. These interests do not override your fundamental privacy rights.
• Consent. Processing for marketing communications is based solely on your explicit, freely given consent. You may withdraw this consent at any time by updating your notification preferences in Account Settings or by contacting our support team. Withdrawal of marketing consent does not affect any other processing activity.

pk836 does not sell your Personal Data. We share your data only with the following categories of third-party processors, and only to the extent necessary to fulfil the stated purpose:

All Third-Party Processors are required to execute a data processing agreement with pk836 obligating them to process your data only for the specified purpose, to apply appropriate technical and organisational security measures, and to delete or return all data upon termination of the engagement.

pk836 uses the following categories of cookies and similar tracking technologies on the Platform:

• Strictly Necessary Cookies. These cookies are essential for the Platform to function. They maintain your login session, remember your authentication state, and protect against cross-site request forgery. These cookies cannot be disabled without breaking core Platform functionality.
• Functional Cookies. These cookies remember your preferences such as language settings, responsible gaming limit configurations, and game display preferences. They improve your experience but are not essential to Platform operation. You may disable them via your browser settings.
• Performance / Analytics Cookies. pk836 uses anonymised, aggregated analytics data to understand how players navigate the Platform and to identify performance bottlenecks. No individual player is identified in this data. These cookies may be disabled without affecting Platform access.

You can manage and delete cookies at any time via your browser settings. Please note that disabling strictly necessary cookies will prevent you from logging in to your pk836 Account.

pk836 retains your Personal Data for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected and to comply with our legal and regulatory obligations. The specific retention periods that apply to different categories of data are as follows:

• Account and Identity Data — Retained for the duration of your active Account plus a minimum of five (5) years following Account closure, in accordance with AML record-keeping requirements.
• Financial and Transaction Data — Retained for a minimum of five (5) years from the date of each transaction, as required by financial regulations.
• KYC Documents — Retained for the duration of your active Account plus five (5) years post-closure. Physical document copies are not retained; only encrypted digital records.
• Gaming Activity Data — Retained for the duration of your active Account plus two (2) years post-closure for responsible gaming monitoring purposes.
• Communications Data (Support Chats, Emails) — Retained for two (2) years from the date of the communication.
• Technical / Log Data — Retained for twelve (12) months from the date of generation.
• Marketing Consent Records — Retained for three (3) years from the date consent was given or withdrawn, to demonstrate compliance.

Upon expiry of the applicable retention period, pk836 will securely delete or anonymise your Personal Data so that it can no longer be attributed to you as an individual.

As a pk836 player, you have the following rights in relation to the Personal Data we hold about you. To exercise any of these rights, please contact the pk836 support team via live chat or email. We will respond within 30 calendar days of receiving your request:

1. Right of Access. You have the right to request a copy of all Personal Data pk836 holds about you, together with information about how and why it is being processed.
2. Right to Rectification. If any Personal Data we hold about you is inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to request that we correct or update it without undue delay.
3. Right to Erasure. You may request deletion of your Personal Data where it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, where you have withdrawn consent (for consent-based processing), or where the data has been processed unlawfully. This right is subject to our legal obligation to retain certain data for the minimum periods specified in Section 7.
4. Right to Data Portability. You may request that we provide your Personal Data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format so that you can transfer it to another service provider.
5. Right to Object. You have the right to object to processing based on legitimate interests, including profiling. pk836 will cease such processing unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds that override your interests.
6. Right to Withdraw Consent. Where processing is based on your consent (e.g., marketing communications), you may withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before the withdrawal.
7. Right to Restriction. In certain circumstances — for example, while a rectification request is being assessed — you may request that pk836 restrict the processing of your Personal Data.

pk836 implements a comprehensive set of technical and organisational security measures to protect your Personal Data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, destruction, or disclosure. These measures include:

• Encryption. All Personal Data is encrypted at rest using AES-256 encryption. All data transmitted between your device and the pk836 Platform is protected using TLS 1.3 with forward secrecy enabled.
• Access Controls. Access to Personal Data within pk836 is restricted on a strict need-to-know basis. All internal access to player data is logged, monitored, and subject to regular audit.
• Two-Factor Authentication. pk836 supports and encourages two-factor authentication (2FA) on all player Accounts. Players in Lahore, Karachi, Islamabad, and all other cities across Pakistan are strongly advised to enable 2FA to protect their Accounts.
• Penetration Testing. The pk836 Platform undergoes regular third-party penetration testing and vulnerability assessments to proactively identify and remediate security weaknesses.
• Incident Response. pk836 maintains a documented data breach response procedure. In the event of a breach affecting your Personal Data, you will be notified within 72 hours of our becoming aware of the incident, together with information about the nature of the breach and the steps we are taking to address it.

Notwithstanding the above, no security system is impenetrable. You are responsible for maintaining the security of your own pk836 Account credentials and for notifying us immediately at [email protected] if you suspect any unauthorised access to your Account.

The pk836 Platform is strictly intended for adults aged 21 years and above. pk836 does not knowingly collect, process, or retain any Personal Data from individuals under the age of 21.

If pk836 becomes aware that Personal Data has been submitted by or on behalf of an individual under the age of 21, we will:

1. Immediately suspend the associated Account pending investigation.
2. Permanently delete all Personal Data associated with the minor without delay.
3. Reverse any financial transactions associated with the Account, including return of any deposited funds to the originating payment method.
4. Permanently ban the associated device identifiers and payment methods from future registration on the Platform.

Parents and guardians who suspect that a minor in their care has registered on the pk836 Platform are urged to contact our support team immediately via live chat or at [email protected]. We will act promptly on all such reports.

pk836 operates under an international gaming licence and may process or store your Personal Data on servers located outside of Pakistan. Where such international transfers take place, pk836 ensures that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your Personal Data to a standard equivalent to that required by applicable data protection law, including:

• Transferring data only to countries or territories that provide an adequate level of data protection as recognised by the relevant licensing authority.
• Implementing contractual clauses in all agreements with Third-Party Processors that impose data protection obligations equivalent to those binding on pk836.
• Ensuring that cloud infrastructure providers store encrypted data only and do not hold decryption keys.

By registering an Account with pk836, you acknowledge that your Personal Data may be transferred to and processed in jurisdictions outside Pakistan as described in this section, subject to the safeguards described above.

pk836 reserves the right to amend this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in applicable law, our data processing practices, or the Services we offer. When we make material changes to this Policy, we will notify registered players by email to the address on file and by displaying a prominent notice on the Platform for no less than seven (7) days before the changes take effect.

The "Last Updated" date at the top of this page will be revised whenever this Policy is updated. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically. Your continued use of the pk836 Platform following the effective date of any amendment constitutes your acknowledgment of the revised Privacy Policy.

If any amendment materially and adversely affects your rights under this Policy, you may object by contacting our support team within 30 days of the amendment taking effect. If you do not agree to the revised Policy, you may request closure of your Account with return of any Real Money Balance as described in our Terms & Conditions.

If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy, wish to exercise any of your data rights, or wish to raise a complaint about the way pk836 has handled your Personal Data, please contact us through the following channels:

• Live Chat: Available 24/7 on the pk836 website. Our Pakistani-fluent support team typically responds within 3–5 minutes.
• Email: [email protected] — please mark the subject line as "Privacy Request" or "Data Complaint" and include your Account username.

pk836 commits to acknowledging all privacy-related complaints within 72 hours and to resolving them within 30 calendar days wherever possible. Complex cases requiring third-party involvement may take longer, in which case we will keep you informed of progress throughout.

If you are not satisfied with the outcome of your complaint, you may escalate the matter to the data protection supervisory authority in the jurisdiction under which pk836 holds its international gaming licence. Details of the relevant authority will be provided to you at the time your complaint is acknowledged.
