1. Introduction
pkr234 ("pkr234", "we", "us", "our") operates the online casino and sports betting platform accessible at pkr234.net (the "Platform"). We are committed to protecting the privacy and personal data of all individuals who access or use the pkr234 Platform ("you", "your", "Player", "User").
This Privacy Policy ("Policy") describes what personal data pkr234 collects from you, for what purposes we use it, with whom we may share it, how we protect it, and what rights you have in relation to it. This Policy applies to all personal data collected through the pkr234 Platform, our customer support channels, and any other interaction you have with pkr234.
This Policy should be read in conjunction with our Terms & Conditions and our Responsible Gaming Policy, which together govern your use of the pkr234 Platform.
By registering an account with pkr234 or otherwise using the Platform, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy and consent to the collection and use of your personal data as described herein.
2. Personal Data We Collect
pkr234 collects personal data in the following categories:
- Registration Data: Full legal name, date of birth, gender, email address, mobile phone number, residential address (city, province, postal code), and chosen username. This data is collected at the point of account registration and is required to create and maintain your pkr234 account.
- Identity Verification Data (KYC): Government-issued photo identification (such as CNIC, passport, or driving licence), proof of address documents, and payment method verification documents. This data is collected as required by our KYC procedures prior to the processing of withdrawals.
- Financial Transaction Data: Records of deposits, withdrawals, bets placed, games played, and account balance history. Payment method details including JazzCash account reference, Easypaisa wallet number, bank account details, and card last-four digits (full card numbers are never stored on pkr234 servers). Transaction amounts, currencies (PKR), and timestamps.
- Device & Technical Data: IP address, device type, operating system, browser type and version, device identifiers, and general geographic location derived from IP address. This data is collected automatically when you access the pkr234 Platform.
- Usage Data: Pages visited, features used, games played, time spent on the Platform, bet and game history, and session duration data. This data is collected automatically through server logs and analytics tools.
- Communications Data: Content of communications you send to pkr234 support, including live chat transcripts, emails, and any feedback you provide. Records of notifications and promotions sent to you by pkr234.
- Responsible Gaming Data: Deposit limits, self-exclusion requests, cooling-off periods, and any other responsible gaming preferences you set within your pkr234 account. This data is treated with heightened sensitivity and is used solely to implement and enforce your responsible gaming choices.
pkr234 does not intentionally collect sensitive personal data such as racial or ethnic origin, religious beliefs, or political opinions. If you voluntarily disclose such information in communications with our support team, we will handle it with appropriate care but will not use it for profiling or marketing purposes.
3. How We Use Your Personal Data

4. Legal Basis for Processing
pkr234 processes your personal data on the following legal bases:
- Contractual Necessity: Processing is necessary to perform our contract with you — namely, to provide the pkr234 Platform services, process transactions, and manage your account as set out in our Terms & Conditions.
- Legal Obligation: Processing is necessary to comply with applicable legal and regulatory requirements, including anti-money laundering (AML) obligations, KYC requirements, and responses to lawful authority requests.
- Legitimate Interests: pkr234 has legitimate interests in processing data for fraud prevention, Platform security, and improving our services. We balance these interests against your privacy rights and will not process data on this basis where your interests override ours.
- Consent: Where pkr234 seeks to send you marketing communications or use non-essential cookies, we do so on the basis of your express consent. You may withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of prior processing.
5. Cookies & Tracking Technologies
pkr234 uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on the Platform for the following purposes:
- Essential Cookies: Required for the Platform to function correctly, including maintaining your logged-in session, remembering your language and currency preferences, and securing your account. These cookies cannot be disabled without impairing Platform functionality.
- Analytics Cookies: Used to understand how Players interact with the pkr234 Platform — which pages are visited most frequently, how long sessions last, and where users exit the Platform. This helps us improve the Platform experience. Analytics data is aggregated and does not identify you individually.
- Functional Cookies: Remember your preferences such as game display settings or responsible gaming reminder configurations to improve your pkr234 experience across sessions.
You may control cookie preferences through your browser settings. Disabling essential cookies will impair your ability to log in and use the pkr234 Platform.
6. Data Sharing & Disclosure
pkr234 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data. We may share your data with the following categories of recipients strictly as necessary:
- Payment Service Providers: JazzCash, Easypaisa, HBL, Meezan Bank, Bank Alfalah, card networks (Visa, Mastercard), and cryptocurrency processing services — to process your financial transactions. These providers act as independent data controllers for their own transaction data.
- Game Providers: Providers such as Evolution, Pragmatic Play, PG Soft, JILI, Ezugi, and others whose games are hosted on pkr234 may receive gameplay session data necessary to deliver and settle games. These providers operate under contractual data processing obligations.
- Identity Verification Services: Third-party KYC and AML compliance service providers engaged to assist with age verification and identity checks for pkr234 accounts.
- Cloud & Hosting Providers: Infrastructure and hosting service providers who process data on our behalf under binding data processing agreements with appropriate security obligations.
- Legal & Regulatory Authorities: Government agencies, law enforcement, and regulatory bodies where disclosure is required by law, court order, or lawful authority request.
All third parties who process personal data on behalf of pkr234 are required to implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect that data and to use it only for the purposes we specify.
7. Data Retention
pkr234 retains your personal data for as long as your account is active and for a period following account closure as required to comply with legal, regulatory, and operational obligations. Specifically:
- Account registration and transaction data is retained for a minimum of five years following account closure to satisfy anti-money laundering record-keeping requirements.
- KYC verification documents are retained for the period required under applicable AML and KYC regulations, typically five years from the end of the business relationship.
- Customer support communication records are retained for a minimum of three years.
- Responsible gaming data including self-exclusion records is retained for the duration of any exclusion period and for a reasonable period thereafter.
When personal data is no longer required for any of the above purposes, pkr234 will securely delete or anonymise it in a timely manner.
8. Data Security
pkr234 implements appropriate technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, loss, destruction, or alteration. These measures include:
- 256-bit SSL/TLS encryption for all data transmitted between your device and pkr234 servers.
- Bcrypt hashing of all account passwords — pkr234 staff cannot access your plain-text password under any circumstances.
- Access controls limiting internal access to personal data to authorised personnel with a legitimate operational need.
- Regular security assessments, penetration testing, and vulnerability scanning of the pkr234 Platform infrastructure.
- Incident response procedures to detect, contain, and report data breaches in a timely manner where required by applicable law.
While pkr234 takes all reasonable steps to protect your data, no internet transmission or digital storage system is completely secure. We encourage you to use a strong, unique password for your pkr234 account and to enable two-factor authentication to further protect your account.
