4 Information We Collect

4.1 Information You Provide Directly

Where the Platform provides any contact form, feedback mechanism or support channel, you may voluntarily provide personal data such as your name, email address and the content of your enquiry. Provision of this information is entirely voluntary — you are not required to provide any personal data simply to browse the Platform's informational content.

4.2 Information Collected Automatically

When you visit the Platform, certain technical data may be collected automatically, including:

• Your IP address (collected in anonymised or truncated form where technically feasible);
• Browser type, version and language settings;
• Device type and operating system;
• Referring URL and exit page;
• Pages visited, time spent on pages and click-path data;
• Date and time of access;
• General geographic location derived from IP address (country/city level only — not precise location).

The Platform may use cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your browsing experience and to collect aggregated analytical data. For full details of how we use cookies, please refer to Section 7 of this Policy.

5 How We Use Your Personal Data

988min processes personal data for the following specific purposes:

988min does not use personal data for automated decision-making, profiling, targeted advertising, or the sale of data to third parties. We do not build individual user profiles for commercial exploitation.

6 Legal Basis for Processing

Where internationally recognised data protection frameworks apply to 988min's processing activities, we rely on the following legal bases:

• Consent: Where you have given clear, specific and freely given consent to particular processing activities (e.g., subscribing to communications). You may withdraw consent at any time without detriment.
• Contract Performance: Where processing is necessary to fulfil a contract with you or to take steps at your request prior to entering a contract, such as responding to your direct enquiry.
• Legitimate Interests: Where processing is necessary for 988min's legitimate business interests — including maintaining Platform security, improving content quality and preventing abuse — provided that such interests are not overridden by your fundamental rights and freedoms.
• Legal Obligation: Where processing is required to comply with applicable law, regulatory requirements or lawful orders of competent authorities.

7 Cookies & Tracking Technologies

7.1 What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They allow the site to remember certain information about your visit — such as your language preference or pages visited — to improve your subsequent visits and to compile analytical data about how the site is used.

7.2 Types of Cookies Used

• Strictly Necessary Cookies: Essential for the basic operation of the Platform. These cannot be disabled as the Platform cannot function without them. They do not store any personally identifiable information.
• Analytical / Performance Cookies: Used to collect aggregated, anonymised data about how visitors use the Platform — pages viewed, time spent and navigation paths. This data helps us improve Platform content and structure.
• Functionality Cookies: Allow the Platform to remember choices you make (such as language settings) to provide a more personalised experience. These store only non-sensitive preference data.

7.3 Managing Cookies

You may control and manage cookie settings through your browser. Most browsers allow you to refuse or delete cookies, though disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of the Platform. Your browser's help documentation will explain how to manage cookies for your specific browser version.

8 Data Sharing & Disclosure

8.1 No Sale of Personal Data

988min does not sell, rent, trade or otherwise transfer your personal data to any third party for commercial purposes. This is an unconditional commitment and not subject to exception.

8.2 Service Providers (Data Processors)

We may engage trusted third-party service providers to assist in the operation of the Platform — such as hosting providers, website analytics services and email delivery providers. Such providers:

• Act only as data processors under our instruction and do not process personal data for their own purposes;
• Are bound by data processing agreements that impose obligations equivalent to those in this Policy;
• Are selected on the basis of technical reliability, security standards and commitment to data protection.

8.3 Legal Disclosure

988min may disclose personal data where required to do so by applicable law, court order, regulatory authority or other lawful governmental process. We will, where legally permissible, notify affected users of such disclosures.

8.4 Business Transfers

In the event of a merger, acquisition, restructuring or asset sale involving 988min, personal data held by 988min may form part of the transferred assets. Any successor entity will be required to honour the commitments made in this Privacy Policy. Users will be notified of any material change in data controller identity.

9 Data Retention

988min retains personal data only for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by applicable law. Our retention principles are as follows:

• Enquiry / contact data: Retained for up to 24 months from the date of the last interaction, after which it is securely deleted unless legal obligations require longer retention.
• Technical access logs: Typically retained for a rolling 90-day period for security and fraud-prevention purposes, after which they are deleted or anonymised.
• Analytical data: Retained in anonymised, aggregated form with no fixed expiry, as anonymised data does not constitute personal data and cannot identify individual users.
• Cookie data: Session cookies expire when you close your browser. Persistent cookies expire in accordance with the specified duration set in each cookie, typically between 30 days and 12 months.

Upon expiry of the applicable retention period, personal data is securely erased or anonymised in accordance with recognised data destruction standards.

10 Security Measures

988min implements technical and organisational security measures designed to protect personal data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, destruction or alteration. These measures include:

• SSL/TLS encryption for all data transmitted between your browser and the Platform;
• Access controls limiting personal data access to authorised personnel with a demonstrated need;
• Regular review and testing of security procedures and infrastructure;
• Secure data hosting with reputable providers maintaining industry-standard physical and logical security.

11 International Data Transfers

The Platform may be accessed from multiple jurisdictions, including Pakistan and other countries. 988min's hosting and service infrastructure may be located outside Pakistan. Where personal data is transferred internationally, we take appropriate steps to ensure that such transfers comply with applicable data protection standards and that adequate safeguards are in place to protect the data.

By using the Platform from Pakistan or any other jurisdiction, you acknowledge that your data may be transferred to and processed in countries other than your country of residence. Such countries may have data protection laws that differ from those in Pakistan.

12 Your Data Protection Rights

Subject to applicable law and the nature of the data processing involved, you may have the following rights in relation to your personal data held by 988min:

• Right of Access: You may request a copy of the personal data we hold about you and information about how it is processed.
• Right to Rectification: You may request correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal data we hold about you.
• Right to Erasure ("Right to be Forgotten"): You may request deletion of your personal data where it is no longer necessary for the purpose it was collected, where you withdraw consent, or where there is no overriding legitimate ground for retention.
• Right to Restriction of Processing: You may request that we temporarily halt processing of your data in certain circumstances, such as while accuracy is contested.
• Right to Data Portability: Where processing is based on consent or contract performance and carried out by automated means, you may request your data in a structured, machine-readable format.
• Right to Object: You may object to processing of your data based on legitimate interests, direct marketing or profiling.
• Right to Withdraw Consent: Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of prior processing.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the details set out in Section 16. We will respond to verified requests within a reasonable timeframe and in accordance with applicable law.

13 Minors & Age Policy

The Platform contains gambling-related informational content and is strictly restricted to adults aged 18 years and over, or the higher minimum age required by any applicable operator or licence jurisdiction. 988min does not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under the age of 18.

If you are a parent or guardian and believe that a minor has provided personal data to 988min without your consent, please contact us immediately using the details in Section 16. Upon receipt of a verified notification, we will take prompt steps to delete any personal data relating to the identified minor.

Note that age alone does not determine the lawfulness of gambling activities in Pakistan. The Prevention of Gambling Act, 1977 and other applicable regulations may impose additional restrictions beyond an age threshold. This is not legal advice — users must understand the laws applicable to them.

14 Third-Party Links & Services

Platform content may reference third-party operators, payment services (including Easypaisa, JazzCash, Raast, HBL, UBL, Meezan Bank and Bank Alfalah), sports organisations and other external entities. Those references are contextual only and do not constitute links to or partnerships with those organisations.

Where the Platform contains any links to third-party websites, 988min has no control over the privacy practices, data processing activities or content of those websites. We are not responsible for the privacy policies of any third-party site and strongly recommend that you review the privacy policy of any external website before providing personal data to it.

15 Changes to This Privacy Policy

988min reserves the right to update this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in our data processing practices, applicable law or Platform functionality. Where changes are material, we will update the "Effective Date" at the top of this document and, where appropriate, publish a notice on the Platform.

Your continued use of the Platform following the publication of an updated Privacy Policy constitutes acceptance of the changes. We recommend reviewing this Policy periodically. The most current version of the Policy supersedes all prior versions.
