This Privacy Policy governs the collection and processing of personal data of Users ("you", "your") who access or use the Platform, including Pakistani users accessing the Platform from Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, Rawalpindi, Faisalabad, and other locations.

By registering an account or using the pak234 Platform, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and consent to the data practices described in this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with any part of this Policy, you should not use the Platform.

• Registration Data: Full legal name, date of birth, Pakistani mobile number, email address, and chosen username collected at account creation.
• KYC / Identity Verification Data: Scanned copies of your Computerised National Identity Card (CNIC) — front and back — and a selfie photograph holding your CNIC, as required for identity and age verification.

pak234 processes your personal data for the following purposes, each of which has a lawful basis:

• Account Management: To create, maintain, and administer your pak234 account and provide access to Platform services.
• Identity & Age Verification (KYC): To verify that you are who you claim to be and that you are at least 18 years of age, as required by our responsible gaming obligations.
• Payment Processing: To process deposits and withdrawals via JazzCash, Easypaisa, HBL, UBL, Meezan Bank, Bank Alfalah, USDT, Skrill, Neteller, and other supported methods.

• Communications: To send transactional communications (deposit confirmations, withdrawal notifications, OTP messages) and, where you have consented, promotional communications about pak234 offers.

4. KYC & Identity Verification

pak234 operates a mandatory Know Your Customer (KYC) verification process. KYC is required before any withdrawal is processed and may be requested at any point during your use of the Platform. The KYC process involves the submission of your CNIC (Computerised National Identity Card) and a selfie photograph as described in Section 2.

KYC data is processed for the purpose of identity verification, age confirmation (18+), fraud prevention, and compliance with anti-money laundering obligations. This data is treated with the highest level of security and is accessible only to pak234 staff and authorised verification service providers with a strict need-to-know basis.

KYC documents are retained for the period required by applicable financial record-keeping obligations (see Section 7 — Data Retention). Failure to complete KYC upon request may result in suspension of withdrawal functionality or account suspension until verification is completed.

5. Cookies & Tracking Technologies

pak234 uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to operate and improve the Platform. The categories of cookies used are as follows:

• Strictly Necessary Cookies: Required for the Platform to function. These include session authentication cookies that keep you logged in to your pak234 account. They cannot be disabled.
• Functional Cookies: Store your preferences such as language settings and display options to personalise your Platform experience.
• Analytics Cookies: Collect aggregated, anonymised data about how Users interact with the Platform — pages visited, session duration, click paths — to help pak234 improve site performance and usability.
• Security Cookies: Help detect and mitigate security threats such as fraudulent login attempts, CSRF attacks, and bot activity.

You may manage cookie preferences through your browser settings. Note that disabling strictly necessary cookies will impair Platform functionality, including the ability to remain logged in to your pak234 account.

6. Data Sharing & Third Parties

pak234 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to third parties for their own marketing purposes. Your personal data may be shared with third parties only in the following circumstances:

• Payment Processors: JazzCash, Easypaisa, and other payment service providers receive the minimum personal data necessary to process your deposit or withdrawal transaction.
• KYC Verification Providers: Authorised identity verification service providers who assist in processing and validating submitted CNIC documents.
• Game Content Providers: Casino game providers may receive anonymised session identifiers to facilitate gameplay. They do not receive your personal registration or financial data.
• Legal & Regulatory Authorities: pak234 may disclose personal data to law enforcement, regulatory bodies, or courts where required by law, in response to a lawful order, or where disclosure is necessary to protect the rights, property, or safety of pak234 or its Users.
• Fraud Prevention Services: Fraud detection and risk management providers who help identify and prevent fraudulent activity on the Platform.

All third-party service providers who process personal data on behalf of pak234 are subject to contractual data processing obligations consistent with applicable data protection standards.

7. Data Retention

pak234 retains personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, unless a longer retention period is required by applicable law. The following general retention periods apply:

• Account Data: Retained for the duration of your active account plus a post-closure period of five (5) years to meet financial record-keeping and anti-money laundering obligations.

• Technical & Log Data: Retained for up to twelve (12) months for security and fraud analysis purposes.

Upon expiry of the applicable retention period, personal data is securely deleted or anonymised so that it can no longer be associated with an individual User.

8. Data Security

pak234 implements appropriate technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These measures include:

• SSL/TLS encryption for all data transmitted between your device and pak234 servers;
• Encrypted storage of sensitive personal and financial data at rest;
• Access controls limiting personal data access to authorised personnel on a strict need-to-know basis;
• Two-factor authentication (OTP via SMS) available for all User accounts;
• Regular security assessments and vulnerability monitoring;
• Secure data centre infrastructure with physical access controls.

While pak234 takes all reasonable steps to protect your personal data, no online platform can guarantee absolute security. You are also responsible for maintaining the security of your own account credentials. If you suspect your pak234 account has been compromised, contact [email protected] immediately.
