Privacy Policy — 88bf

88bf is an internationally licensed online gaming platform operating at https://88bf.games and all associated subdomains and mobile-optimised versions thereof. For the purposes of data protection law, 88bf acts as the data controller in respect of all personal data collected from Members and visitors to the platform.

88bf provides online casino games, sports betting markets — including PSL and international cricket betting — slots, rummy, dragon tiger, and related gaming services to adult players across Pakistan, including members based in Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, Faisalabad, and other cities. We take our obligations as a data controller seriously and have appointed a dedicated team responsible for ensuring compliance with applicable data protection standards.

If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy or how 88bf handles your personal data, you may contact us at any time using the details provided in Section 14 of this document.

88bf collects personal data from you at various points during your relationship with the platform. The categories of data we collect are as follows:

• Registration Data: Full legal name as it appears on your CNIC or passport, date of birth, gender, residential address, city (e.g. Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad), email address, and mobile phone number provided when you create your 88bf account.
• Identity Verification (KYC) Documents: Copies of government-issued identity documents such as your CNIC, passport, or driving licence; proof of address documents such as a utility bill or bank statement; and where required, selfie photographs or video verification to confirm identity.
• Financial Data: Payment account details used to deposit or withdraw funds, including JazzCash account numbers, EasyPaisa wallet numbers, HBL or UBL bank account details, USDT TRC20 wallet addresses, and transaction reference numbers. 88bf does not store full card numbers or CVV codes — payment card processing is handled by our PCI-DSS compliant payment partners.
• Gaming Activity Data: Records of all bets placed, games played, amounts wagered, winnings received, game session durations, preferred games, and betting patterns across all 88bf products including cricket betting, slots, rummy, and dragon tiger.
• Technical & Device Data: IP address, device type, operating system, browser type and version, screen resolution, time zone, and unique device identifiers collected automatically when you access the platform.
• Communication Data: The content of any messages you send to 88bf through live chat, email, or support ticket systems, including any documentation you attach to support requests.
• Marketing Preferences: Records of your consent to receive or opt out of marketing communications, including email newsletters, SMS bonus alerts, and PSL betting promotions.
• Responsible Gaming Data: Self-imposed limits, cooling-off periods, self-exclusion requests, and any information you provide in connection with problem gambling support.

88bf uses the personal data we collect for the following defined purposes:

• Account Administration: To create, manage, and maintain your 88bf account, verify your identity, process deposits and withdrawals, and provide access to all gaming services on the platform.
• Identity Verification & KYC Compliance: To verify your age (21+), confirm your identity, and meet our anti-money-laundering (AML) obligations as required by our international gaming licence conditions.
• Fraud Prevention & Security: To detect, investigate, and prevent fraudulent transactions, bonus abuse, multi-accounting, money laundering, and other prohibited conduct as defined in our Terms and Conditions.
• Payment Processing: To process your deposits via JazzCash, EasyPaisa, HBL, UBL, Meezan Bank, Allied Bank, SadaPay, and USDT TRC20, and to process withdrawal requests to your verified payment accounts.
• Customer Support: To respond to your queries, investigate complaints, resolve disputes, and provide technical assistance through our live chat and email support channels.
• Platform Improvement: To analyse aggregated gaming activity data, identify technical issues, test new features, and improve the overall performance and user experience of the 88bf platform.
• Responsible Gaming: To monitor gaming activity for signs of problem gambling, implement the responsible gaming tools you have requested, and proactively contact you if your activity patterns suggest you may be at risk.
• Regulatory Compliance: To meet our obligations to our licensing authority, respond to lawful requests from regulatory bodies or law enforcement agencies, and maintain records as required by applicable laws.
• Marketing Communications (with consent only): To send you information about new games, bonus offers, PSL betting promotions, and platform updates where you have explicitly opted in to receive such communications.

88bf processes your personal data on the following legal bases:

• Contractual Necessity: Processing your registration data, KYC documents, and payment information is necessary for 88bf to perform its contractual obligations to you as a Member — specifically, to provide gaming services, process financial transactions, and maintain your account.
• Legal Obligation: Processing for KYC verification, anti-money-laundering checks, age verification, and responding to regulatory or law enforcement requests is required by the legal and licence obligations applicable to 88bf as an online gaming operator.
• Legitimate Interests: Processing for fraud prevention, platform security, abuse detection, responsible gaming monitoring, and internal analytics is carried out on the basis of 88bf's legitimate interest in maintaining a safe, fair, and compliant gaming environment for all Members.
• Consent: Processing for direct marketing communications — including email newsletters, SMS bonus alerts, and promotional offers — is carried out only where you have provided clear, freely given consent. You may withdraw your consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.

88bf does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to third parties for marketing or commercial purposes. We share your personal data only in the following limited circumstances:

• Payment Service Providers: We share the financial data necessary to process your deposits and withdrawals with our authorised payment partners — JazzCash, EasyPaisa, HBL, UBL, Meezan Bank, Allied Bank, SadaPay, and our USDT TRC20 processing partner. These providers act as data processors on our behalf and are contractually bound to handle your data securely and solely for payment processing purposes.
• KYC & Identity Verification Providers: We use third-party identity verification services to assist with CNIC and passport verification, facial recognition checks, and anti-money-laundering screening. These providers access only the data necessary for verification and are bound by strict data processing agreements.
• Game Technology Providers: Where 88bf offers games developed or hosted by third-party game studios or aggregators, limited technical data (such as session tokens and bet records) may be shared with those providers to enable game functionality. These providers do not receive your identity or payment data.
• Regulatory Authorities & Law Enforcement: 88bf may be required by law, court order, or regulatory direction to disclose your personal data to our licensing authority, the relevant financial intelligence unit, or law enforcement agencies. Such disclosures will be made only to the extent required by law and, where legally permitted, we will inform you that a disclosure has been made.
• Group Companies: Where 88bf operates as part of a corporate group, personal data may be shared with affiliated companies within that group for internal compliance, risk management, and operational purposes, always subject to equivalent data protection safeguards.
• Business Transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or part of 88bf's business, your personal data may be transferred to the acquiring entity as part of that transaction. We will notify affected Members in advance of any such transfer where feasible.

As an internationally licensed gaming platform, 88bf may transfer your personal data to countries outside Pakistan for processing or storage, including the jurisdiction in which our gaming licence is held and the locations where our third-party service providers operate their infrastructure.

Where personal data is transferred internationally, 88bf takes appropriate steps to ensure that an adequate level of protection is provided. These steps may include entering into standard contractual clauses with the receiving entity, ensuring the receiving country has been assessed as providing an adequate level of data protection, or applying other legally recognised transfer mechanisms.

88bf retains your personal data for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by applicable law and our licensing obligations. The following retention periods apply as a general guide:

• Active Account Data: All personal, financial, and gaming data associated with an active 88bf account is retained for the full duration of your membership.
• Closed Account Data: Following account closure, 88bf retains your identity, KYC, and transaction records for a minimum of five years in order to comply with anti-money-laundering record-keeping requirements and to respond to any post-closure disputes or regulatory enquiries.
• Communication Records: Support chat logs, email correspondence, and complaint records are retained for a minimum of three years from the date of the last communication.
• Marketing Consent Records: Records of your marketing consent and any withdrawal of consent are retained for six years to demonstrate compliance with applicable marketing regulations.
• Responsible Gaming Records: Self-exclusion requests, deposit limit settings, and related responsible gaming correspondence are retained for a minimum of five years to prevent circumvention of self-exclusion arrangements and to support any future re-registration reviews.

When data is no longer required and the applicable retention period has expired, 88bf will securely delete or anonymise it so that it can no longer be associated with you as an individual.

The 88bf platform uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to operate the site, remember your preferences, and measure how Members use the platform. The categories of cookies we use are as follows:

• Strictly Necessary Cookies: These cookies are essential for the platform to function. They manage your login session, maintain your authentication state, and ensure security features operate correctly. They cannot be disabled without preventing you from using the platform.
• Functional Cookies: These cookies remember your preferences such as your preferred language, display settings, and last-used payment method, so you do not have to re-enter them on each visit.
• Analytics Cookies: 88bf uses first-party analytics tools to understand how Members navigate the platform — which games are most popular, where players encounter difficulties, and how login flows perform. This data is aggregated and does not identify individual users.
• Responsible Gaming Cookies: These cookies store your active session duration and responsible gaming alerts so that session reminders and cooling-off notifications function correctly across your visit.

88bf does not use third-party advertising or tracking cookies to build behavioural profiles for advertising purposes. You can manage or delete cookies through your browser settings, though disabling strictly necessary cookies will prevent you from logging in to the platform.

As an 88bf Member, you have the following rights in respect of your personal data. To exercise any of these rights, contact us at support@88bf.games with your full name, registered email address, and a description of your request:

• Right of Access: You have the right to request a copy of all personal data that 88bf holds about you, together with information about how it is used and with whom it has been shared.
• Right to Rectification: You have the right to request correction of any inaccurate or incomplete personal data held about you. You may update many details directly within your account settings panel.
• Right to Erasure: You have the right to request deletion of your personal data where it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, or where you withdraw consent and there is no other legal basis for processing. This right is subject to 88bf's legal retention obligations described in Section 7.
• Right to Restrict Processing: You have the right to request that 88bf temporarily suspends certain processing activities while the accuracy of data or the lawfulness of processing is under dispute.
• Right to Data Portability: You have the right to receive a copy of the personal data you have provided to 88bf in a structured, machine-readable format, and to transmit that data to another controller where technically feasible.
• Right to Object: You have the right to object to processing carried out on the basis of legitimate interests, including profiling for responsible gaming monitoring. 88bf will consider your objection and cease the relevant processing unless it can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds that override your interests.
• Right to Withdraw Consent: Where processing is based on your consent — such as marketing communications — you may withdraw that consent at any time by updating your account preferences or contacting support. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.

88bf will respond to all data rights requests within 30 days of receipt. Where a request is complex or we receive a large volume of requests, this period may be extended by a further 60 days, and we will inform you of the extension within the initial 30-day period.

The 88bf platform is strictly intended for adults aged 21 and above. 88bf does not knowingly collect personal data from any person under the age of 21. Registration requires confirmation that you are of legal age, and our KYC process includes age verification against government-issued identity documents.

If 88bf discovers that personal data has been collected from a person under the age of 21, we will immediately close the associated account, return any deposits made (less any amounts paid out as winnings prior to detection), delete all personal data associated with that account, and where appropriate, report the matter to relevant authorities.

If you are a parent or guardian and you believe that a minor in your care has registered on the 88bf platform, please contact us immediately at support@88bf.games. We will investigate the matter on a priority basis and take all appropriate action within one business day of receiving your report.

88bf 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:

• TLS Encryption in Transit: All data transmitted between your device and 88bf servers is encrypted using Transport Layer Security (TLS). Connections using outdated or insecure protocols are automatically rejected.
• Encryption at Rest: Sensitive data including identity documents, payment account details, and authentication credentials are stored using strong encryption algorithms. Plaintext storage of passwords is strictly prohibited — 88bf uses one-way cryptographic hashing with salting.
• Access Controls: Access to systems that hold personal data is restricted to authorised 88bf personnel on a need-to-know basis. Access is governed by role-based permissions and multi-factor authentication requirements for all staff accounts.
• Intrusion Detection & Monitoring: 88bf operates continuous security monitoring across its infrastructure to detect and respond to suspicious activity, attempted breaches, and anomalous access patterns in real time.
• Data Breach Response: In the event of a personal data breach that poses a risk to your rights and freedoms, 88bf will notify affected Members and, where required, the relevant supervisory authority, within the timeframes mandated by applicable law. We will also provide guidance on steps you can take to protect yourself.
• Third-Party Security Audits: 88bf engages independent security professionals to conduct periodic penetration testing and vulnerability assessments of its platform and infrastructure.

While we apply rigorous security measures, no system connected to the internet is completely immune to risk. We encourage all Members to use strong, unique passwords for their 88bf accounts, enable two-factor authentication where available, and report any suspicious account activity to our support team immediately.

The 88bf platform may contain links to third-party websites or services — for example, links to our payment partners' information pages or to responsible gaming support organisations. This Privacy Policy applies solely to data collected and processed by 88bf on the 88bf platform.

Third-party websites and services have their own privacy policies, which govern how they collect and use your data. 88bf is not responsible for the privacy practices of any third-party site you visit via a link from the 88bf platform. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any third-party site before providing your personal information to it.

88bf reserves the right to update or revise this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in applicable law, our data processing practices, or the services we offer. When material changes are made, we will provide advance notice to Members via a platform notification displayed upon login, an email to your registered address, or a prominent notice on the 88bf website homepage.

The "Last Updated" date at the top of this policy will always reflect the date of the most recent revision. Your continued use of the 88bf platform following publication of a revised Privacy Policy constitutes your acceptance of the updated terms. If you do not accept the revised policy, you must cease using the platform and contact our support team to request account closure.

An archive of previous versions of this Privacy Policy is maintained by 88bf. Members who wish to review a prior version may request a copy by contacting support at support@88bf.games.
