4. Personal Data We Collect
We collect Personal Data directly from you when you register, use or contact us, and automatically through your use of the Platform. The categories of data we collect are summarised in the table below.

Payment provider names such as Easypaisa, JazzCash, Raast, HBL, UBL, Meezan Bank and Bank Alfalah appear in transaction records as familiar Pakistani payment references only. Their presence in our data records does not constitute endorsement of pkr99 by those institutions.
4.1 Special Category Data
pkr99 does not intentionally collect special category data (such as health data, biometric data for identification purposes, or data revealing racial or ethnic origin) except where a liveness check is required as part of KYC verification. Such data is processed solely for identity verification purposes and is retained only for the minimum period necessary.
5. Legal Basis for Processing
We process Personal Data on one or more of the following legal bases, depending on the nature and purpose of the processing activity:

7. Data Sharing & Disclosure
pkr99 does not sell, rent or trade your Personal Data to third-party marketing companies under any circumstances. We may share your data with the following categories of recipients, strictly on a need-to-know basis and subject to appropriate data processing agreements:
7.1 Payment Processors
To process deposits and withdrawals, we share relevant transaction and identity data with payment processing partners. These partners operate under contractual data protection obligations. Where your payment method involves a familiar Pakistani provider (such as Easypaisa, JazzCash or Raast as references), data is shared only to the extent necessary to process the transaction.
7.2 Identity Verification Providers
For KYC purposes, we may engage third-party identity verification services to validate your CNIC, passport or other documents. These providers are bound by strict data protection and confidentiality obligations.
7.3 Technology and Platform Providers
Certain Platform infrastructure is provided by third-party technology vendors including game studios, analytics services, cloud hosting providers and customer support systems. All such providers are engaged under data processing agreements that restrict their use of your data to the provision of services on our behalf.
7.4 Legal and Regulatory Authorities
We may disclose Personal Data where required to do so by applicable law, court order, regulatory directive or lawful request from a competent authority. We will notify affected users of such disclosures where legally permitted to do so.
7.5 Business Transfers
In the event of a merger, acquisition or sale of all or part of the Platform's business, Personal Data may be transferred to the acquiring entity, subject to commitments of equivalent data protection standards.
8. Cookies & Tracking Technologies
pkr99 uses cookies and similar tracking technologies (including local storage and session tokens) to operate the Platform, authenticate users, maintain session state, analyse usage and improve platform performance.
8.1 Types of Cookies We Use
- Essential Cookies: Required for the Platform to function. These include session authentication cookies and security tokens. They cannot be disabled without impairing Platform functionality.

- Preference Cookies: Used to remember your language, currency (PKR) and display preferences across sessions.

When retention periods expire, Personal Data is securely deleted or anonymised so that it can no longer be attributed to an identifiable individual.
10. International Data Transfers
pkr99 operates internationally and your Personal Data may be transferred to, and processed in, countries outside Pakistan. Where such transfers occur, we ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your data to a standard equivalent to the protections described in this Policy.
Appropriate safeguards may include contractual data processing clauses, binding corporate rules or other recognised transfer mechanisms applicable in the jurisdictions concerned.
11. Security Measures
pkr99 implements a range of technical and organisational security measures to protect your Personal Data against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration or destruction. These include:
- HTTPS/TLS encryption for all data in transit between your device and the Platform;
- Encryption at rest for stored sensitive data including identity documents and financial records;
- Role-based access controls limiting staff access to Personal Data on a need-to-know basis;
- Regular security audits, penetration testing and vulnerability assessments;
- Secure document upload portals for KYC submissions;
- Two-factor authentication options available for account login;
- Monitoring systems to detect anomalous access patterns and potential breaches.
Your responsibility: You play an important role in account security. Never share your password, and do not respond to any communication that requests your login credentials. pkr99 support agents will never ask for your password via any channel.
Despite our security measures, no internet-based system can guarantee absolute security. In the event of a data breach that is likely to result in a high risk to your rights and freedoms, we will notify you without undue delay in accordance with applicable obligations.
