This Privacy Policy explains in detail how 98fd collects, stores, processes, shares, and protects the personal information of Pakistani players who use the 98fd online casino and sports betting platform. 98fd is committed to maintaining the highest standards of data privacy and security. We treat your personal information — including your CNIC details, banking credentials, and gaming history — with the same level of care and confidentiality that you would expect from any trusted financial institution operating in Pakistan.
Before reading the full legal text below, these six principles summarise how 98fd approaches data privacy for Pakistani players. These are not aspirational statements — they are the operational standards the 98fd platform is built around.
All data transmitted between your device and 98fd servers is encrypted using 256-bit SSL/TLS encryption. This applies to login sessions, payment entries, game sessions, and every form of communication between your browser or mobile device and the 98fd platform — without exception.
98fd stores personal data — including CNIC scans, selfies, and bank account information — in encrypted, access-controlled databases that are segregated from game operations infrastructure. Access to personally identifiable data is limited to authorised 98fd personnel with a verified operational need.
98fd does not sell, rent, or monetise Pakistani player personal data to any third party for marketing, advertising, or commercial purposes. Player information is used exclusively for account operation, identity verification, payment processing, and regulatory compliance. Nothing else — full stop.
Pakistani players have the right to access, correct, and request deletion of their personal data held by 98fd, subject to applicable legal retention requirements. Data access and correction requests submitted to the 98fd support team are processed within ten (10) business days of receipt.
98fd collects only the personal data that is genuinely necessary for operating a compliant online gaming platform — no more. We do not collect data categories that have no operational or legal justification. Data minimisation is a design principle at 98fd, not an afterthought applied retrospectively.
This Privacy Policy explains in plain English what data 98fd collects, why it is collected, how long it is retained, who it may be shared with, and what rights Pakistani players have in relation to it. 98fd does not hide data practices in vague or overly technical language intended to obscure what is actually happening with your information.
This Privacy Policy is a legally significant document that explains how 98fd processes your personal information. By registering an account or using any 98fd service, you confirm that you have read and understood this policy. If you disagree with any part of this policy, please discontinue use of the 98fd platform and contact our support team to arrange closure of any existing account.
98fd operates the online casino and sports betting platform accessible at 98fd.net. In this Privacy Policy, references to "98fd", "we", "us", and "our" refer to the operator of the 98fd platform.

98fd operates under international online gaming regulations and is specifically designed to serve the Pakistani market. The platform provides cricket betting, live dealer casino games, slot titles, fishing arcade games, and related online gaming services to eligible Pakistani players aged 21 years and above.

This Privacy Policy applies to all personal data processed by 98fd in connection with the operation of the 98fd platform, including data collected through:
This policy does not govern the data practices of third-party payment processors, game providers, or any other external services that may be accessible through or referenced by the 98fd platform. Players are advised to review the privacy policies of those third parties independently where relevant.
98fd collects the following categories of personal data from Pakistani players, collected only to the extent necessary for the stated operational or legal purpose:
| Data Category | Specific Data Points | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Identity Data | Full legal name, date of birth, CNIC number, CNIC scan (front and back), selfie with CNIC | KYC verification, age verification (21+), anti-fraud |
| Contact Data | Email address, Pakistani mobile number | Account communication, support, security notifications |
| Financial Data | JazzCash/EasyPaisa mobile number, bank account details (IBAN or account number), USDT wallet address, deposit and withdrawal history | Payment processing, AML compliance, withdrawal verification |
| Gaming Data | Game history, bet amounts, win/loss records, bonus redemption history, session durations | Account management, responsible gaming monitoring, dispute resolution |
| Technical Data | IP address, device type, browser type, operating system, session timestamps | Security, fraud prevention, platform optimisation |
| Usage Data | Pages visited on 98fd, time spent on platform, features accessed, navigation patterns | Platform improvement, responsible gaming analytics |
| Communication Data | Live chat transcripts, email correspondence with 98fd support team | Support quality assurance, dispute resolution, training |
CNIC scans and selfie images are classified as sensitive personal data and are subject to enhanced storage security and access restrictions within 98fd's data infrastructure. These documents are retained solely for KYC compliance purposes and are not used for any marketing or profiling activity.
98fd collects personal data through the following mechanisms:
Data you provide directly when registering an 98fd account, completing KYC verification, submitting a deposit or withdrawal request, contacting 98fd support via live chat or email, or completing any form or survey on the 98fd platform. This includes the identity, contact, and financial data categories described in Section 3.
When you access the 98fd platform, certain technical and usage data is collected automatically through server logs, session analytics systems, and cookie technologies. This includes your IP address, device identifiers, browser type, the pages of 98fd you visit, the duration of your sessions, and the features you interact with. This data collection is standard across virtually all web-based platforms and is necessary for maintaining platform security and performance on 98fd.
In limited circumstances, 98fd may receive personal data from third-party sources for fraud prevention or identity verification purposes. This may include verification data from payment processors confirming the validity of JazzCash or EasyPaisa mobile numbers, or data from fraud prevention databases used to identify high-risk account patterns before deposit processing is approved on 98fd.
98fd processes personal data on one or more of the following legal bases:
98fd uses the personal data collected from Pakistani players for the following purposes:
98fd does not sell personal data. 98fd shares personal data with third parties only in the following limited circumstances:
98fd shares financial and identity data with payment processing partners — including JazzCash, EasyPaisa, and banking partners — to the minimum extent necessary to facilitate deposits and withdrawals. These processors are contractually obligated to use player data only for payment processing purposes and to maintain appropriate data security standards.
98fd shares session-level technical data with licensed game providers to facilitate the delivery of casino games and sports betting markets on the 98fd platform. Game providers do not receive personally identifiable information beyond what is technically necessary to authenticate game sessions. Certified providers operate under strict data processing agreements with 98fd.
98fd may share CNIC data and selfie images with certified identity verification service providers for the purpose of automated KYC processing. These providers are bound by data processing agreements that restrict use of the data exclusively to the identity verification purpose for which it was shared.
98fd participates in fraud prevention networks and anti-money-laundering screening services. Certain data — including IP addresses, device fingerprints, and transaction patterns — may be shared with these services to identify high-risk activity. This sharing is conducted on the basis of 98fd's legitimate interest in preventing financial crime on the platform.
98fd may disclose personal data to regulatory authorities, law enforcement agencies, or courts of competent jurisdiction where required to do so by applicable law, valid legal process, or regulatory obligation. 98fd will notify affected players of any such disclosure request where legally permitted to do so.
Under no circumstances does 98fd share Pakistani player personal data with advertisers, data brokers, social media platforms, or any third party for commercial marketing or profiling purposes. Player data is an operational resource used exclusively to run the 98fd platform — it is not a commercial asset that 98fd monetises.
98fd uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on the 98fd.net platform. A cookie is a small text file placed on your device by a website when you visit it. Cookies enable the platform to remember certain information about your session and preferences.
Essential cookies are required for the 98fd platform to function correctly. They manage your login session, maintain your account authentication state, and enable secure financial transactions. These cookies cannot be disabled without impairing the fundamental functionality of the 98fd platform.
98fd uses analytics cookies to collect aggregated, anonymised data about how Pakistani players navigate and interact with the platform. This data helps 98fd identify areas of the platform that are performing well and areas that require improvement. Analytics data is not linked to individual player identities in the reports used for platform improvement decisions.
Preference cookies remember your selected language, display settings, and other interface preferences so that you do not need to re-configure these each time you log into your 98fd account. These cookies are stored only for the duration of your account session or for a short fixed period thereafter.
You may configure your browser to block or delete cookies. However, disabling essential cookies will prevent you from logging into your 98fd account or conducting transactions. The cookie settings menu in your browser's privacy or security section provides controls for managing cookie preferences on a per-category basis.
98fd retains personal data for the minimum period necessary to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected, subject to any applicable legal retention obligations. The following retention periods apply to the principal data categories:
| Data Category | Retention Period | Basis |
|---|---|---|
| KYC & Identity Documents | 5 years following account closure | AML regulatory obligation |
| Financial Transaction Records | 5 years following the transaction date | Financial record-keeping obligation |
| Gaming History | 3 years following account closure | Dispute resolution, responsible gaming |
| Support Communications | 2 years following resolution of the relevant matter | Quality assurance, dispute resolution |
| Technical & Log Data | 12 months from collection | Security monitoring, fraud prevention |
| Marketing Consent Records | Duration of consent plus 1 year following withdrawal | Demonstrating lawful processing basis |
Upon expiry of the applicable retention period, personal data is securely deleted or anonymised in accordance with 98fd's data destruction procedures. Anonymised data that cannot be attributed to any individual player may be retained indefinitely for aggregated analytics purposes.
98fd implements comprehensive technical and organisational security measures to protect Pakistani player personal data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, destruction, or disclosure. The principal security measures deployed by 98fd include:
While 98fd implements robust server-side security measures, the security of your 98fd account also depends on the strength and confidentiality of your personal login credentials. 98fd strongly recommends using a unique, strong password for your 98fd account and enabling any available two-factor authentication features. Never share your 98fd login credentials with any other person.
Pakistani players whose personal data is processed by 98fd have the following rights in relation to that data. These rights may be exercised by contacting the 98fd support team through the channels described in Section 15:
The 98fd platform is strictly intended for adults aged 21 years and above. 98fd does not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under the age of 21. The CNIC-based age verification process applied during KYC verification is specifically designed to prevent under-age individuals from establishing verified, withdrawal-eligible 98fd accounts.
If 98fd becomes aware that personal data has been collected from a player who is under 21 years of age, that account will be immediately suspended, all funds therein will be handled in accordance with the applicable regulatory requirements, and all personal data associated with the minor's account will be deleted to the extent permitted by applicable legal retention obligations.
Parents and guardians are advised to implement device-level parental controls to prevent minors in their household from accessing online gaming platforms, including 98fd. If you believe a minor may have accessed or registered an 98fd account, please contact the 98fd support team immediately to report the matter.
The 98fd platform integrates with certain third-party services to provide full gaming and payment functionality. These include certified game providers whose software powers the slot, live casino, and arcade titles available on 98fd, as well as payment processing partners including JazzCash, EasyPaisa, and the banking institutions that facilitate PKR deposits and withdrawals.
Each of these third-party services operates under its own privacy policy and data practices. 98fd enters into data processing agreements with all third-party processors to ensure that player data shared with them is handled with appropriate security and is used exclusively for the purposes for which it was shared. However, 98fd is not responsible for the independent data practices of third-party services beyond the scope of those agreements.
The 98fd platform does not contain links to external third-party websites for commercial purposes. Where navigational links exist to other 98fd-operated pages, those pages are governed by this same Privacy Policy. If you encounter links to external websites from within the 98fd platform, please be aware that those sites are governed by their own independent privacy policies, which 98fd has no ability to influence or enforce.
98fd reserves the right to update this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in operational data practices, regulatory requirements, or platform functionality. When material changes are made to this policy — meaning changes that substantively affect how 98fd processes Pakistani player personal data or alter player rights under the policy — 98fd will provide advance notice through one or more of the following channels:
For non-material amendments — such as typographical corrections, formatting updates, or clarifications that do not change the substance of 98fd's data practices — 98fd may update the policy without advance notice. The effective date displayed at the top of this page will reflect the date of the most recent revision in all cases.
Continued use of the 98fd platform following notification of a policy update constitutes acceptance of the revised Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with any changes to this policy, you should cease using the 98fd platform and contact the support team to discuss account closure and the return of any withdrawable balance.
For all privacy-related enquiries — including data access requests, correction requests, erasure requests, objections to processing, complaints about 98fd's data practices, or general questions about how your personal data is handled — please contact the 98fd support team through the following channels:
When submitting a data access or correction request, please include your registered email address or mobile number and a clear description of the specific data you are requesting access to or seeking to have corrected. For identity verification purposes, 98fd may require you to confirm your identity before processing certain requests relating to sensitive personal data categories.
This version of the 98fd Privacy Policy supersedes all prior versions. Pakistani players who have not reviewed this policy since creating their 98fd account are encouraged to read it in full to understand how their data is currently being handled by the platform.
256-bit SSL encryption, no data selling, CNIC-protected accounts, and full transparency about how 98fd handles your information. Pakistan's most trusted online casino platform — for players aged 21 and above only.
