At p998, your personal data is handled with the same care we apply to every other aspect of the platform. This Privacy Policy explains what data p998 collects from Pakistani players, why we collect it, how we use and protect it, who we share it with, and what rights you have over your own information. We believe transparency about data practices is a basic obligation to every player who trusts us with their details.
A plain-English summary of the most important data practices at p998. Please read the full policy below for complete details.
p998 collects only the data required to operate your account, verify your identity, process payments in PKR, and deliver a safe, personalised gaming experience. We do not collect data beyond what is reasonably necessary for these purposes.
Your data is used for account management, KYC and age verification, payment processing via JazzCash and EasyPaisa, fraud prevention, platform security, responsible gaming enforcement, and — with your consent — relevant promotional communications.
p998 shares data only with regulated service providers necessary to deliver the platform — including KYC verification partners, payment processors, and fraud detection services. We never sell your personal data to advertising networks or data brokers.
All data stored by p998 is encrypted at rest using AES-256 and in transit via 256-bit SSL. Access to personal data is role-restricted to authorised p998 personnel only, with full audit logging of all data access events.
p998 retains personal data for as long as your account remains active and for up to seven (7) years thereafter, as required by anti-money laundering and gaming license obligations. Data no longer required is securely deleted.
As a p998 player, you have the right to access your personal data, request corrections, ask for deletion where permissible, withdraw marketing consent, and lodge a complaint regarding data handling — all via the p998 support team.
For the purposes of this Privacy Policy, the data controller is p998, the operator of the online gaming and sports betting platform accessible at p998.bid. p998 holds a valid international online gaming license under which it is obligated to maintain data processing standards consistent with internationally recognised privacy principles.
As data controller, p998 is responsible for determining the purposes and means of processing personal data collected from players and website visitors. All data processing activities carried out on behalf of p998 by third-party service providers are governed by appropriate data processing agreements.
For all privacy-related inquiries, you may contact p998 via email at [email protected] or through the live chat function available on the p998 website 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

p998 retains personal data for the following periods, after which data is securely deleted or anonymised:
p998 is an international gaming platform operating under an international gaming license. Certain personal data processing activities — including cloud infrastructure, KYC processing, and fraud detection — may involve the transfer of personal data to service providers located outside Pakistan.
All international data transfers by p998 are conducted under appropriate safeguards, including contractual data processing agreements that require receiving parties to apply data protection standards equivalent to those applied by p998. No personal data is transferred to a jurisdiction that does not provide an adequate level of data protection without such contractual safeguards being in place.
As a p998 player, you have the following rights regarding your personal data. Requests to exercise any of these rights should be submitted to the p998 support team via live chat or by email to [email protected].
You may request a copy of the personal data p998 holds about you. p998 will respond to access requests within 30 calendar days.
If personal data p998 holds about you is inaccurate or incomplete, you may request that it be corrected or updated at any time.
You may request deletion of personal data where p998 no longer has a legal basis to retain it. Note that mandatory retention obligations (e.g. AML) may prevent full deletion in some cases.
You may request that p998 restrict the processing of your personal data in certain circumstances, such as while the accuracy of the data is being contested.
You may request a machine-readable copy of the personal data you have provided to p998 for the purpose of transferring it to another service provider.
You may object to processing of your personal data based on p998's legitimate interests, including profiling for marketing purposes. Objections will be assessed and responded to promptly.
p998 is strictly an adult gaming platform. Access to and use of p998 requires users to be at least 21 years of age. p998 does not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under the age of 21.
Age verification procedures are conducted during account registration and may be re-triggered at any point during the account lifecycle. If p998 discovers that personal data has been collected from an individual under 21, that account will be immediately suspended, any funds held will be subject to review, and the personal data collected will be deleted from p998 systems as promptly as legally possible.
p998 may send promotional and marketing communications — including bonus offers, game updates, and platform news — via SMS to your registered Pakistani mobile number or via email, provided you have given your explicit consent to receive such communications at the time of registration or thereafter through your account settings.
You may withdraw your consent to receive marketing communications from p998 at any time by: updating your notification preferences in your p998 account settings; replying "STOP" to any marketing SMS received from p998; or contacting p998 support via live chat or email. Withdrawal of consent will be actioned within 48 hours and will not affect the lawfulness of any marketing communications sent prior to the withdrawal.
Please note that p998 will continue to send transactional and account-related communications — including deposit confirmations, withdrawal notifications, OTP codes, security alerts, and responsible gaming notifications — regardless of your marketing communication preferences, as these communications are necessary for the operation and security of your p998 account.

Players are encouraged to review the privacy policies of any third-party websites they visit independently of p998.
