At pka999, protecting your personal data is a core commitment — not an afterthought. This Privacy Policy explains in plain, structured English exactly what data we collect, how we use it, who we may share it with and what rights you hold as a user visiting from Pakistan or elsewhere.
Our Privacy Commitments
These are the high-level commitments we make to every user. The full legal policy text follows below and governs in all cases.
We collect only the personal data that is strictly necessary to operate the Platform and provide our services. We do not gather data speculatively or for purposes beyond those disclosed in this Policy.
All personal data stored by pka999 is protected using industry-standard encryption and access controls. We regularly review our security practices to guard against unauthorised access, disclosure or loss.
pka999 does not sell, rent or otherwise commercially transfer your personal data to any third party. Your information is not a revenue source for us — full stop.
We tell you exactly what we collect, why we collect it and how long we keep it. There are no hidden data pipelines or undisclosed processing activities on pka999.
You have the right to access, correct, or request deletion of your personal data. You also have the right to object to processing and to data portability. We take these rights seriously and will respond to verified requests promptly.
We do not keep your personal data indefinitely. Retention periods are tied to the purpose for which data was collected and to applicable legal obligations. Data that is no longer needed is securely deleted or anonymised.
pka999 ("pka999", "we", "our" or "us") operates the website accessible at https://pka999.cam — an English-language online betting information and entertainment platform targeting users in Pakistan, including audiences in Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, Rawalpindi, Faisalabad, Multan, Peshawar and other cities and regions across the country.
This Privacy Policy ("Policy") describes how pka999 collects, uses, stores, discloses and protects personal data obtained through your use of the Platform. It applies to all visitors, registered users and any other individuals who access or interact with pka999 in any manner.
pka999 is an information platform — not a gambling operator. We do not process gambling transactions, hold player funds or provide betting services directly. Accordingly, our data processing activities are limited to what is necessary to deliver an informational and editorial service. Any personal data you provide to a third-party operator you choose to engage with is subject to that operator's own privacy policy, for which pka999 bears no responsibility.
Your privacy matters. By accessing pka999, you acknowledge that you have read this Policy and consent to the data practices described herein. If you do not agree, please discontinue use of the Platform. This Policy is incorporated into and must be read alongside our Terms & Conditions.

| "Processing" | Any operation performed on personal data, including collection, storage, use, disclosure, erasure or destruction. |
| "Data Controller" | The entity that determines the purposes and means of processing personal data. For this Platform, that entity is pka999. |

| "Cookies" | Small text files placed on your device by the Platform to store browsing preferences, session data and analytical information. |

| "User" / "You" | Any individual who accesses, browses or otherwise uses the Platform in any capacity. |
pka999 acts as the Data Controller in respect of personal data collected through the Platform. As Data Controller, pka999 is responsible for determining why and how your personal data is processed, and for ensuring that processing is carried out in compliance with applicable data protection laws and the principles set out in this Policy.
For all data protection queries, requests and complaints, please use the contact details provided in Section 16 of this Policy. We aim to respond to all verified data subject requests within a reasonable timeframe, typically within 30 calendar days of receipt.

Third-Party Cookies: Some third-party service providers whose tools operate on pka999 (such as analytics platforms) may set their own cookies. These are governed by those providers' privacy policies, not this Policy. pka999 selects service providers that operate in compliance with applicable data protection standards.
pka999 does not sell your personal data to any third party. We may share limited personal data only in the following specific circumstances:

All such providers are engaged under contractual terms that require them to process personal data only on our documented instructions and to maintain appropriate security measures.
We may disclose personal data where we are required to do so by applicable law, court order, regulation or formal request from a competent governmental or regulatory authority. We will, where legally permissible, notify affected users of such disclosures.
In the event of a merger, acquisition, restructuring or sale of all or part of pka999's business, personal data held by us may be transferred to the relevant successor entity, subject to equivalent privacy protections being maintained. Users will be notified of any such transfer that materially affects the processing of their personal data.
We may share personal data where necessary to protect the rights, property or safety of pka999, our users or the public, including to enforce our Terms and Conditions or to investigate suspected illegal activity or fraud.
We do not share personal data with gambling operators, payment processors or any commercial third party for marketing purposes without your explicit, separate consent.
pka999 is an online platform and our service providers may be located in jurisdictions outside Pakistan. Where personal data is transferred to countries that may not have equivalent data protection laws, we take appropriate safeguards to ensure that your data receives an adequate level of protection. Such safeguards may include contractual protections, data processing agreements and adherence to recognised international data transfer frameworks.
By using the Platform, you acknowledge that your personal data may be transferred to and processed in countries outside of Pakistan. We commit to implementing appropriate protective measures in all such cases.
pka999 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. Our general retention principles are as follows:
When personal data is no longer required, we take reasonable steps to securely delete or anonymise it so that it can no longer be associated with an identifiable individual.
pka999 implements a range of technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, loss or destruction. These measures include:
While we take all reasonable precautions, no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security of data transmitted over the internet. If you become aware of any security concern relating to the Platform, please contact us immediately using the details in Section 16.
User Responsibility: You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of any credentials used to access third-party platforms you may visit through links from pka999. pka999 is not responsible for the security of third-party accounts, platforms or payment systems.
pka999 is strictly an adults-only platform. Access to this Platform and any gambling-related content published on it is restricted to individuals who are at least 18 years of age, or who meet the higher minimum age requirement of the relevant operator or license jurisdiction.
We do not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under the age of 18. If we become aware that we have inadvertently collected data from a minor, we will take immediate steps to delete that data from our records. Parents and guardians who believe their child may have accessed pka999 are encouraged to contact us immediately using the details in Section 16.
We strongly encourage parents and guardians to make use of parental control software and browser filtering tools to prevent minors from accessing age-restricted content online.

You may request correction of any inaccurate or incomplete personal data we hold about you.
You may request deletion of your personal data where there is no compelling reason for its continued processing.
You may request that we restrict the processing of your data in certain circumstances while a dispute is resolved.
Where processing is based on consent or contract, you may request transfer of your data in a structured, machine-readable format.
You may object to processing based on our legitimate interests. We will cease such processing unless we demonstrate compelling grounds that override your interests.
We will respond to all verified rights requests within 30 calendar days. In complex cases this period may be extended by a further 60 days, of which you will be notified. We reserve the right to verify your identity before processing any data subject request to protect against unauthorised access to personal data.
Please note: These rights may be subject to limitations and exceptions under applicable law. Exercising a right does not automatically entitle you to the outcome requested in all cases.
The Platform may reference or link to third-party websites, operators and platforms for informational purposes. pka999 has no control over the data practices, content or privacy policies of any third-party site or service. This Policy applies only to data collected through the pka999 Platform.
When you follow a link from pka999 to any third-party platform — including an online operator, payment provider or other service — your use of that platform and any data you provide are governed solely by that platform's terms and privacy policy. We strongly encourage you to read the privacy policy of any external platform before providing personal data, particularly before depositing funds, undergoing KYC verification or creating an account.
References to payment services such as Easypaisa, JazzCash, Raast, HBL, UBL, Meezan Bank and Bank Alfalah on pka999 are made as familiar local context examples only. Those entities' data practices are entirely independent of pka999 and are governed by their own privacy frameworks.

We may also provide additional notice of significant changes through a notice on the Platform homepage or through other appropriate channels. Your continued use of the Platform following publication of any revised Policy constitutes your acceptance of the updated terms.
