4How We Use Your Data

pk177 uses the personal data we collect for the following purposes:

5Legal Basis for Processing

Where applicable data protection law requires a legal basis for processing personal data, pk177 relies on the following bases:

• Contractual Necessity: Processing required to fulfil our obligations under the Terms and Conditions — including account management, payment processing and identity verification.
• Legal Obligation: Processing required to comply with applicable laws — including anti-money laundering (AML) requirements, licensing obligations and regulatory reporting duties.
• Legitimate Interests: Processing undertaken to pursue pk177's legitimate business interests — including fraud prevention, platform security, service improvement and responsible gambling monitoring — where those interests are not overridden by your rights.
• Consent: Processing based on your freely given, specific consent — including marketing communications and certain non-essential cookies. You may withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.

6Data Sharing

pk177 does not sell your personal data to third parties for their own marketing purposes. We may share your data with the following categories of recipient, strictly on a need-to-know basis:

• Payment Processors: Third-party payment service providers who process deposits and withdrawals on behalf of the operator. These providers receive only the transaction data necessary to complete the requested payment. References to Easypaisa, JazzCash, Raast, HBL, UBL, Meezan Bank and Bank Alfalah are for contextual purposes; actual payment processing is subject to the operator's confirmed provider arrangements.
• KYC and Fraud Prevention Services: Specialist third-party identity verification and fraud detection providers used to complete KYC processes and protect against fraudulent activity.
• Game and Technology Providers: Operators of game studios and platform technology suppliers who may process limited usage data to provide their services.
• Regulatory Authorities: Licensing bodies, financial intelligence units and law enforcement agencies, where disclosure is required by law or pursuant to a valid legal order.
• Professional Advisors: Legal, accounting and auditing professionals bound by professional confidentiality obligations.
• Business Successors: In the event of a merger, acquisition or sale of the Platform, your data may be transferred to the successor entity subject to equivalent privacy protections.

7Data Retention

pk177 retains personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by applicable law. Our general retention principles are as follows:

• Active Account Data: Retained for the duration of your registered account with pk177.
• KYC and Identity Documents: Retained for a minimum of five years following account closure, or longer if required by the operator's licensing jurisdiction for AML compliance purposes.
• Transaction Records: Retained for a minimum of five years following each transaction, in line with standard financial record-keeping requirements.
• Support Communications: Retained for up to three years following resolution of the relevant query, for service quality and dispute resolution purposes.
• Marketing Opt-In Records: Retained until you withdraw consent or for three years following last interaction, whichever is earlier.
• Anonymised Analytics Data: May be retained indefinitely in anonymised, aggregated form that cannot identify any individual.

When retention periods expire, personal data is securely deleted or anonymised in accordance with our internal data disposal procedures.

8Data Security

pk177 implements technical and organisational security measures designed to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, disclosure, alteration or destruction. These measures include:

• SSL/TLS encryption for all data transmitted between your device and the Platform
• Encrypted storage of passwords and sensitive account credentials
• Access controls restricting internal data access to authorised personnel on a need-to-know basis
• Regular security testing and vulnerability assessments of Platform infrastructure
• Two-factor authentication options available to Users for enhanced account security
• Documented incident response procedures for managing any data security breach

While pk177 takes data security seriously and applies industry-standard safeguards, no system connected to the internet can be guaranteed completely secure. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account login credentials. If you suspect unauthorised access to your account, contact us immediately at [email protected] or via live chat.

10Third-Party Services

The pk177 Platform integrates or references third-party services including payment processors, game studios, analytics providers and live-chat support tools. Each third-party service operates under its own privacy policy and data-handling practices. pk177 is not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party providers.

We conduct due diligence on third-party Data Processors to ensure they provide sufficient guarantees regarding their data security and privacy standards. Where we share personal data with third-party processors, this is governed by a data processing agreement requiring them to process your data only on our written instructions and in accordance with applicable law.

The Platform does not include links to external third-party websites for commercial purposes. Any third-party references on the Platform — including to Pakistani payment services such as Easypaisa, JazzCash, Raast, HBL, UBL, Meezan Bank and Bank Alfalah — are informational only and do not constitute partnerships, affiliations or endorsements by those institutions of gambling activity.

Subject to applicable law and the operator's licensing jurisdiction requirements, you may have the following rights in respect of your personal data held by pk177. To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the details in Section 15.

12Children's Privacy

The pk177 Platform is strictly intended for adults aged 18 or older, or the higher minimum age required by the operator's licensing jurisdiction. We do not knowingly collect, process or retain personal data belonging to individuals under the minimum age threshold.

Where we discover or have reasonable grounds to believe that personal data has been submitted by or on behalf of a minor, we will promptly take steps to delete that data and close the associated account. If you are a parent or guardian and believe a minor has submitted personal data to pk177, please contact us immediately at [email protected].

13International Data Transfers

pk177 operates under the governance of its licensing jurisdiction. Your personal data may be stored or processed on servers located outside Pakistan. Where personal data is transferred to countries that may not provide the same level of data protection as the laws of the operator's jurisdiction, pk177 will ensure appropriate safeguards are in place — such as contractual data transfer agreements — to protect your personal data during the transfer.

By using the pk177 Platform, you acknowledge and consent to the transfer of your personal data to jurisdictions outside Pakistan as described in this Policy.
