Data Protection & Privacy

Privacy Policy — How 8kbat Protects Your Data

This Privacy Policy explains what personal information 8kbat collects from players in Pakistan, how it is used, how it is kept secure, and what rights you have over your own data. We believe in being straight with you — no confusing legal jargon, just clear answers.

Last updated: January 2026

Six Ways 8kbat Protects Your Privacy

Privacy is not an afterthought at 8kbat. Here is a plain-language summary of what we do to keep your personal information safe and under your control.

SSL Encryption on Every Transaction

All data sent between your device and 8kbat — including PKR deposits via JazzCash and Easypaisa, account details and login credentials — is protected by SSL encryption in transit.

No Sale of Personal Data

8kbat does not sell, rent or trade your personal information to third parties for their own marketing purposes. Your data is used to operate your account and improve your experience — nothing else.

Secure Data Storage

Account data, transaction records and verification documents are stored on secured servers with access controls. Only authorised personnel with a legitimate operational need can access this data.

You Control Your Data

You can request access to the personal data we hold about you, ask for corrections, or request deletion — subject to legal retention requirements. Contact support to exercise any of these rights.

Minimal Data Collection

We collect only what is necessary to operate your account, process PKR transactions and comply with fraud-prevention requirements. We do not collect data speculatively or without a clear purpose.

Marketing Opt-Out Available

If you do not wish to receive promotional communications about bonuses, PSL betting offers or new features, you can opt out at any time through your account notification settings or by contacting support.

1. Who This Policy Applies To

This Privacy Policy applies to all users of the 8kbat platform — whether you access it through the website at 8kbat.vin, the Android APK, or the iOS progressive web app. It covers registered account holders and visitors who browse without registering.

By using 8kbat in any capacity, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this policy. If you are a registered player in Pakistan, this policy governs all personal data we hold in connection with your account, your PKR transactions, your betting activity and any communications between you and our support team.

This policy should be read alongside our Terms and Conditions and Responsible Gaming page.

2. What Data We Collect

We collect personal data in two broad categories: data you provide to us directly, and data that is collected automatically when you use the platform.

2.1 Data You Provide Directly

  • Registration information: Full name, date of birth, email address, mobile number and username chosen at sign-up.
  • Verification documents: CNIC (Computerised National Identity Card) copy or other identity documents requested during account verification.
  • Payment information: JazzCash mobile number, Easypaisa account details, bank account details for Raast or bank transfer, or card details used for deposits and withdrawals in PKR.
  • Support communications: Messages, screenshots or other information you submit when contacting the support team.
  • Responsible gaming preferences: Deposit limits, session reminder settings and self-exclusion choices made through account settings.

2.2 Data Collected Automatically

  • Device and browser data: IP address, device type (Android, iPhone, desktop), operating system version, browser type and screen resolution.
  • Usage data: Pages visited, time spent on each section, games played, bets placed, sports markets accessed, and navigation paths within the platform.
  • Session data: Login timestamps, session duration, and logout or session-end events.
  • Transaction logs: Records of all deposits, withdrawals, bonus claims and wager settlements associated with your account.
  • Cookie data: Information stored by cookies and similar tracking technologies — see Section 7 for full details.

We do not collect sensitive categories of data such as biometric data, health information, political views or religious beliefs. Payment card data is handled through PCI-compliant payment processors and the full card number is never stored on 8kbat's own servers.

3. How We Collect Your Data

Your data reaches us through three main channels:

  • Direct input: Information you type into registration forms, verification uploads, cashier screens and support chat windows.
  • Automatic collection: Technical data gathered by our platform as you browse and use the site or app — including server logs, cookies and analytics tools.
  • Third-party sources: Payment providers such as JazzCash and Easypaisa may share transaction confirmation data with us. Identity verification services may return a pass/fail result along with the document type checked. We do not receive raw document images from third-party verification providers.

4. How We Use Your Data

8kbat uses the personal data we collect for specific, legitimate purposes. We do not use your data for anything beyond what is described below without first obtaining your consent.

Purpose Data Used Why It Is Necessary
Account management Name, email, mobile number, username To create and maintain your account and allow you to log in securely
Identity verification CNIC, date of birth, address To confirm you are aged 18 or over and to comply with fraud-prevention requirements
Processing PKR transactions Payment details, transaction history To process deposits and withdrawals via JazzCash, Easypaisa, Raast and bank transfer
Betting and gaming services Wager history, game activity, session data To settle bets correctly, apply bonuses and resolve any disputes
Fraud and abuse prevention IP address, device data, transaction logs To detect duplicate accounts, bonus abuse and suspicious activity
Customer support Support chat history, account data To resolve queries about accounts, bets, payments and responsible gaming tools
Platform improvement Usage data, navigation paths To understand how players use the platform and improve the experience
Promotional communications Email address, mobile number To notify you of bonuses, PSL betting offers and new features — only if you have not opted out

5. Legal Basis for Processing

Every use of your personal data is grounded in one of the following legal bases:

  • Contract performance: Processing your registration data, payment details and betting activity is necessary to fulfil our obligations to you under the Terms and Conditions.
  • Legitimate interests: Fraud detection, platform security, abuse prevention and internal analytics are carried out on the basis of our legitimate interest in operating a safe and fair platform. These interests do not override your rights.
  • Legal obligation: Identity verification and transaction record-keeping are required to comply with applicable financial crime prevention requirements.
  • Consent: Sending you marketing communications about promotions, PSL enhanced odds or new casino game launches is done only with your consent, which you can withdraw at any time.

6. Sharing Your Data

8kbat does not sell your personal data. We share it only where necessary and only with the categories of recipients described below.

6.1 Payment Processors

To process your PKR deposits and withdrawals, we share necessary payment details with providers including JazzCash, Easypaisa, Raast, and partner banks. These providers receive only the data needed to complete your transaction and are bound by their own security and privacy obligations.

6.2 Identity Verification Services

When account verification is required, we may share your submitted documents with a third-party identity verification service. This service returns a verification result to us and does not use your data for any other purpose.

6.3 Game Software Providers

Casino slots, live dealer games and other gaming content on 8kbat are provided by licensed game software companies. These providers may receive your account identifier and game session data to deliver the game and record the outcome. They do not receive your financial details or full personal profile.

6.4 Analytics and Platform Tools

We use analytics tools to understand how the platform is used. These tools may process anonymised or pseudonymised usage data. Where such tools set cookies, they are described in Section 7.

6.5 Legal and Regulatory Disclosures

We may disclose personal data where required to do so by a valid legal process, court order or regulatory authority. In such cases, we disclose only the minimum information required and, where legally permitted, will notify you of the disclosure.

When we share data with third parties, we require them to keep it secure, use it only for the stated purpose, and not disclose it further without authorisation. We do not transfer your data to parties outside of the scope described in this section.

7. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

8kbat uses cookies and similar technologies to keep you logged in, remember your preferences and understand how the platform is being used. Here is a plain breakdown of the types of cookies in use:

  • Essential cookies: Required for the platform to function. These handle your login session, keep your cart or bet slip intact, and maintain security tokens. You cannot opt out of essential cookies while using the platform.
  • Functional cookies: Remember your preferences such as language settings, display preferences and previously viewed sports markets. These make the platform more convenient to use.
  • Analytics cookies: Collect anonymised data about how visitors navigate the platform — which pages are visited most, how long sessions last, and where users drop off. This data is used internally to improve the platform and is not linked to your personal identity.
  • Marketing cookies: Used to show you relevant promotional content about 8kbat features, PSL cricket betting offers or new slot game releases within the platform. These are only activated where you have given consent.

You can manage or disable non-essential cookies through your browser settings. Note that disabling functional cookies may affect your experience — for example, your session preferences may not be saved between visits.

8. Data Retention

We retain your personal data for as long as your account is active, and for a period after account closure as required for legal and operational purposes. Specific retention periods are as follows:

  • Account and registration data: Retained for the duration of your account and for a minimum period after closure for compliance purposes.
  • Transaction records: PKR deposit and withdrawal records, including JazzCash and Easypaisa transaction references, are retained for a minimum of five years to meet financial record-keeping requirements.
  • Identity verification documents: Retained for the period required to fulfil verification obligations and for a defined period afterwards in case of disputes or regulatory enquiries.
  • Support communications: Chat and email records are retained for a reasonable period to allow follow-up on open or recurring issues.
  • Marketing consent records: Records of your opt-in or opt-out choices are retained to demonstrate compliance with consent requirements.

When data is no longer required and the retention period has expired, it is securely deleted or anonymised so that it can no longer be linked to you.

9. Data Security

Protecting your personal data is a core operational priority at 8kbat. The security measures we have in place include:

  • SSL/TLS encryption: All data transmitted between your device and our platform — including login credentials, PKR payment details and personal information — is encrypted in transit using SSL/TLS protocols.
  • Access controls: Personal data is accessible only to authorised staff who need it to perform their role. Access is logged and monitored.
  • Secure storage: Account data and documents are stored on secured infrastructure with firewalls, intrusion detection and regular security reviews.
  • Password hashing: Passwords are stored in hashed form — your actual password is never stored in plain text on our servers.
  • Fraud monitoring: Automated systems monitor for unusual account activity, multiple logins from different locations, and suspicious transaction patterns.

Despite these measures, no system connected to the internet is completely immune to risk. If you suspect your account has been accessed without your authorisation, contact support immediately and change your password.

10. Your Rights

As a user of 8kbat, you have the following rights in relation to your personal data. To exercise any of these rights, contact our support team with your account details and a description of your request.

1
Right of Access

Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you, including your account details, transaction history and any verification records.

2
Right to Rectification

Ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete personal data. For example, if your name or contact number on file is wrong, we will update it upon verified request.

3
Right to Erasure

Request deletion of your personal data where we no longer have a legal basis to retain it. Note that transaction records must be kept for a minimum period for compliance reasons.

4
Right to Restrict Processing

Ask us to pause processing of your data in certain circumstances — for example, while a dispute about accuracy is being resolved.

5
Right to Data Portability

Request a copy of the data you provided to us in a structured, commonly used format so you can transfer it to another service if you choose.

6
Right to Withdraw Consent

Where processing is based on your consent — such as marketing communications — you can withdraw that consent at any time through account settings or by contacting support.

We aim to respond to data rights requests within a reasonable timeframe. In some cases — particularly for complex requests or where identity verification is required before we can act — it may take longer. We will keep you informed of progress.

11. Children's Privacy

8kbat is strictly an adults-only platform. No person under the age of 18 is permitted to register, deposit funds or participate in any betting or casino activity on 8kbat.

We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18. If we discover that an account has been registered by a minor, the account will be closed immediately, all data associated with that account will be deleted, and any funds will be handled in accordance with our account closure policy.

If you are a parent or guardian and have reason to believe a minor has registered on 8kbat using your details or otherwise, please contact support immediately so we can investigate and act accordingly.

12. Changes to This Privacy Policy

8kbat may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in how we operate, changes in the services we offer, or in response to legal or regulatory developments. When material changes are made — particularly those that affect how your data is used or your rights — we will notify you through a notice on the platform or via the contact details on your account.

The date at the top of this page shows when the policy was last updated. We encourage you to check this page periodically. Continued use of 8kbat after an update takes effect means you have accepted the revised policy.

13. Contact Us

If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy, want to exercise your data rights, or have a concern about how your personal information is being handled, our support team is available through the live chat feature on the platform.

You can also reach us by email — our support address is shown in the footer of this page. When submitting a data rights request, please include your registered username and a clear description of what you are asking for. This helps us locate your records accurately and respond efficiently.
