At qk98, the privacy and security of your personal data is a fundamental obligation — not an afterthought. This Privacy Policy explains exactly what information we collect when you use the qk98 Platform, why we collect it, how we use and protect it, who we may share it with, and what rights you hold over your own data. Please read this document carefully before registering your qk98 Account.
The cards below summarise the core principles of the qk98 Privacy Policy. They are provided for convenience only — the full legal text in the sections below governs your relationship with qk98.
qk98 collects only the personal data required to operate your Account, verify your identity, process transactions in PKR, and comply with our international gaming licence obligations — including KYC and anti-money laundering requirements.
All data transmitted between your device and qk98 is encrypted with 256-bit SSL. Passwords are stored using one-way cryptographic hashing. Access to personal data internally is restricted to authorised personnel on a strict need-to-know basis.
As a qk98 player, you have the right to access, correct, and request deletion of your personal data. You may also object to certain processing activities or request portability of your data. Requests are handled within 30 days.
qk98 does not sell your personal data. We share data only with regulated third parties necessary to deliver our services — payment processors like JazzCash and EasyPaisa, KYC providers, and our licensing authority — and only to the extent required.
qk98 uses essential cookies to keep your session active and functional. Analytics cookies help us understand how Pakistani players use the Platform so we can improve it. You can manage non-essential cookie preferences through your browser settings.
qk98 retains your personal data for as long as your Account is active and for a minimum of five years after closure to satisfy our regulatory and anti-money laundering obligations. After the retention period expires, your data is securely deleted or anonymised.
qk98 is an internationally licensed online gaming and sports betting platform operating at qk98.net. We offer cricket betting, live casino games, video slots, fishing games, and e-sports wagering to adult players in Pakistan, with all transactions processed in Pakistani Rupees (PKR).
For the purposes of this Privacy Policy, qk98 acts as the data controller in respect of all personal data collected from players and visitors to the qk98 Platform. As data controller, qk98 determines the purposes and means by which your personal data is processed.
