Privacy Policy – 88 fd Online Gaming Platform Pakistan

1. Who We Are

88 fd (referred to as "we", "us", "the Platform", or "88 fd" throughout this Privacy Policy) operates the online gaming and sports betting platform accessible at https://88fd.life. For the purposes of this Privacy Policy, 88 fd is the data controller — meaning we determine the purposes and means of processing the personal data of our members.

This Privacy Policy applies to all personal data collected by 88 fd through the Platform, including via registration, account use, deposits and withdrawals, gameplay, customer support interactions, and any promotional activity. If you are a member of 88 fd, this policy applies to you in full.

This policy should be read alongside the Terms and Conditions and the Responsible Gaming Policy. Together, these three documents govern the full relationship between 88 fd and its members.

2. Data We Collect

When you interact with 88 fd — whether at the point of registration, during account use, or when contacting support — we collect certain personal data. The types of data we collect are grouped below.

2.1 Registration Data

When you create an account on 88 fd, we collect: your full name as registered on your CNIC, a valid Pakistani mobile number, your date of birth, and a username and password of your choice. This data is necessary to create and operate your account and cannot be withheld at the point of registration.

2.2 Verification Data

When your account reaches the verification threshold — typically triggered at the first significant withdrawal or at 88 fd's discretion in accordance with anti-money-laundering procedures — we may collect a copy of your CNIC (front and back), a selfie photograph, and proof of the payment method used. This data is used solely for identity verification and is not used for any other purpose.

2.3 Financial Data

To process deposits and withdrawals, 88 fd collects the payment method details you provide — for example, your Easypaisa or JazzCash mobile number, NayaPay or SadaPay account reference, IBFT bank account number, or the last four digits of your Visa/Mastercard. We do not store full card numbers. All payment data is encrypted in transit and at rest using 256-bit SSL encryption. Full card details are handled by the payment processor, not retained by 88 fd directly.

2.4 Transaction & Gameplay Data

88 fd automatically records all deposits, withdrawals, bets, casino game sessions, poker hands, and other gameplay activity linked to your account. This data forms the permanent record of your activity on the Platform and is used for account management, dispute resolution, regulatory compliance, and to power the responsible gaming tools available to you.

2.5 Technical Data

When you access 88 fd, we automatically collect technical data about your session: your IP address, device type, operating system, browser type and version, session timestamps, pages visited, and error logs. This data helps us monitor Platform performance, detect fraud, and resolve technical issues. It does not identify you by name but may in combination with other data constitute personal data under applicable law.

2.6 Support Data

When you contact 88 fd support — via Live Chat or email — we retain a record of the conversation, including any personal data you share in the course of resolving your query. This data is used for quality control, staff training, and to provide a continuous support experience if you contact us again about the same matter.

3. How We Use Your Data

88 fd uses the personal data we collect for the following specific purposes:

• Account operation: Creating and maintaining your member account, verifying your identity, managing your balance, and enabling all gaming and betting features on the Platform.
• Payment processing: Facilitating deposits and withdrawals through your chosen PKR payment method. Your payment data is shared with the relevant payment processor only to the extent necessary to complete the transaction.
• Regulatory compliance: Meeting our obligations under the terms of our gaming licence, including anti-money-laundering (AML) checks, Know Your Customer (KYC) verification, and cooperation with regulatory or law enforcement inquiries where legally required.
• Responsible gaming: Monitoring gameplay patterns to identify members who may be showing signs of problem gambling, administering the responsible gaming tools you request (deposit limits, self-exclusion, cooling-off periods), and complying with regulatory requirements around player protection.
• Customer support: Using your account and transaction history to assist with queries, disputes, and complaints efficiently and accurately.
• Platform improvement: Using aggregated, anonymised usage data to understand how members interact with 88 fd and to prioritise new features and fixes.
• Fraud prevention and security: Detecting and preventing fraudulent account activity, multi-accounting, payment fraud, and other security threats using technical data and transaction patterns.
• Marketing communications: Sending promotional offers, bonus notifications, and relevant updates to members who have opted in to marketing. You can opt out at any time as described in Section 11.

4. Legal Basis for Processing

Every processing activity on 88 fd has a legal basis. The primary bases are:

• Contract performance: Processing necessary to provide the services described in the Terms and Conditions — account operation, payments, gameplay, and support — is carried out on the basis that it is necessary for the contract between you and 88 fd.
• Legal obligation: KYC verification, AML checks, and cooperation with regulatory or law enforcement bodies are carried out on the basis of legal compliance requirements applicable to licenced gaming operators.
• Legitimate interests: Fraud detection, platform security, and aggregated analytics are carried out on the basis of the legitimate interests of 88 fd in protecting the Platform and improving the member experience, provided those interests are not overridden by your rights.
• Consent: Marketing communications are sent only where you have given explicit consent at registration or in your account settings. Consent for marketing can be withdrawn at any time.

5. Data Sharing

88 fd does not sell or rent your personal data. We share data only in the following specific circumstances:

5.1 Payment Processors

To process your PKR deposits and withdrawals via Easypaisa, JazzCash, NayaPay, SadaPay, IBFT, or Visa/Mastercard, 88 fd shares the minimum necessary payment data with the relevant processor. Each processor operates under its own privacy policy and is bound by its own regulatory obligations. 88 fd selects only processors with appropriate security standards.

5.2 Identity Verification Services

Where KYC verification is required, 88 fd may use a third-party identity verification service to confirm the authenticity of documents submitted. These services are bound by strict data handling agreements and are not permitted to use your data for any purpose other than completing the verification for 88 fd.

5.3 Regulatory and Law Enforcement Bodies

88 fd may disclose personal data to gaming regulators, financial intelligence units, or law enforcement agencies where required by law, by regulatory licence conditions, or in response to a valid legal order. We will always seek to limit such disclosure to the minimum required.

5.4 Service Providers

88 fd uses service providers for hosting, cloud storage, email delivery, and analytics. These providers access data only as necessary to perform their contracted services and are bound by data processing agreements that prohibit them from using your data for any other purpose.

6. Data Retention

88 fd retains personal data for as long as is necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, subject to any longer retention periods required by law or regulatory obligation. Our standard retention periods are:

• Account and registration data: Retained for the duration of your membership and for a period of 5 years after account closure, to comply with regulatory record-keeping requirements.
• Transaction and gameplay records: Retained for 5 years from the date of each transaction, in line with standard AML record-keeping obligations applicable to licenced gaming operators.
• KYC verification documents: Retained for 5 years from the date of verification or from the date of account closure, whichever is later.
• Support correspondence: Retained for 2 years from the date of the last interaction in the relevant support thread.
• Technical logs: Retained for 12 months from collection, after which they are anonymised or deleted.
• Marketing preferences: Retained until you withdraw consent or close your account.

When data is no longer required for any purpose described in this policy and no retention obligation applies, 88 fd securely deletes or anonymises it. Anonymised data — which cannot be linked back to any individual — may be retained indefinitely for aggregated analytics purposes.

7. Cookies & Tracking Technologies

88 fd uses cookies and similar technologies on the Platform. Cookies are small text files placed on your device by your browser when you visit a website. They are widely used and serve several legitimate purposes.

88 fd does not use tracking cookies for third-party advertising. We do not allow advertising networks to place cookies on the Platform. Analytics data collected via cookies is aggregated and anonymised before being used in any analysis — it is not linked to your individual account.

You can manage cookies through your browser settings at any time. Disabling essential cookies will affect the functionality of 88 fd and may prevent you from logging in. Instructions for managing cookies in common browsers are available in their respective help sections.

8. Security Measures

Protecting your personal data is a serious responsibility at 88 fd. The security measures we maintain include:

• Transport layer security: All data exchanged between your browser and 88 fd is encrypted using TLS 1.2 or higher. The padlock indicator in your browser confirms this protection is active during every session.
• Data encryption at rest: Personal and financial data stored on 88 fd servers is encrypted at rest. Even in the event of unauthorised server access, stored data would be unreadable without the encryption keys.
• Access controls: Access to personal data within 88 fd is restricted on a strict need-to-know basis. Support agents can see account and transaction data relevant to their function; they do not have access to payment credentials or verification document images beyond what is necessary for their role.
• Intrusion detection: The Platform is monitored 24/7 for unusual access patterns, suspicious login activity, and potential security breaches. Automated systems flag anomalies for manual review by the security team.
• Incident response: In the event of a data breach that poses a risk to member rights, 88 fd will notify affected members and the relevant regulatory authority within the timeframes required by applicable law.

No online platform can guarantee absolute security. However, 88 fd maintains a security posture that is appropriate to the sensitivity of the data we hold and consistent with industry standards for licenced gaming operators. You can help protect your account by using a strong, unique password and never sharing your login credentials with anyone.

9. Your Privacy Rights

As a member of 88 fd, you have the following rights regarding the personal data we hold about you. To exercise any of these rights, email support@88fd.life with your account mobile number and a description of your request. We will respond within 10 business days.

10. Children's Privacy

88 fd is an adult gaming platform and is strictly not available to anyone under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under 18. Where age is misrepresented at registration and we become aware that an account holder is under 18, the account will be closed immediately, all data associated with the account will be deleted, and any deposits made will be returned to the original payment source.

If you are a parent or guardian and believe a person under 18 has registered on 88 fd, please contact us immediately at support@88fd.life. We will investigate and take action as described above.

11. Marketing Communications

88 fd sends promotional emails and SMS notifications about bonuses, new features, and special offers only to members who have opted in to marketing communications. Opt-in is presented clearly at registration and can be changed at any time in your account settings.

We do not send marketing communications to members who are in a self-exclusion period, a cooling-off period, or who have set a responsible gaming limit that is actively in use. This is a deliberate design choice, not just a regulatory requirement — it reflects the commitment of 88 fd to responsible gaming in practice.

To opt out of marketing at any time, go to Account Settings → Notifications → Marketing, and set your preferences to off. Alternatively, reply STOP to any SMS from 88 fd, or email support@88fd.life with the subject line "Unsubscribe".

12. Third-Party Links

The 88 fd Platform may contain links to third-party content or information for reference purposes. 88 fd is not responsible for the privacy practices of any website or service not operated by 88 fd. If you follow a link to a third-party site, you should review the privacy policy of that site independently. This Privacy Policy applies solely to data collected by 88 fd.

13. Updates to This Privacy Policy

88 fd reviews this Privacy Policy regularly and will update it when our data practices change, when new services are added to the Platform, or when legal or regulatory requirements change. When material changes are made, we will notify members via the registered mobile number or by displaying a prominent notice on the Platform before the change takes effect.

The "last updated" date at the top of this page reflects the date of the most recent revision. We recommend checking this page periodically if you are a regular user of 88 fd. Continued use of the Platform following a policy update constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
