1. Introduction

This Privacy Policy ("Policy") is issued by b58q ("b58q", "we", "us", "our"), the operator of the online gambling platform accessible at b58q.app. This Policy governs the collection, use, storage, disclosure, and protection of personal data relating to registered members, prospective members, and visitors to the b58q platform ("you", "your").

b58q has been providing online casino and sports betting services to Pakistani players since 2021. We understand that privacy is particularly important when it comes to financial and gambling-related data. This Policy is written in plain English so that every member — whether based in Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, or anywhere else across Pakistan — can understand exactly how their information is handled.

This Policy should be read alongside our Terms & Conditions and our Responsible Gaming Policy. By creating a b58q account or continuing to use the platform, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy and consent to the data practices described herein.

7. Cookies & Tracking Technologies

7.1 What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. b58q uses cookies and similar tracking technologies — including web beacons, pixel tags, and local storage — to operate essential platform functions, remember your preferences, maintain your login session, and collect usage analytics.

7.2 Categories of Cookies Used

  • Strictly Necessary Cookies: Essential for the platform to function. These include session authentication cookies, security tokens, and load-balancing cookies. They cannot be disabled.
  • Functional Cookies: Remember your preferences such as language settings, last-played games, and display options to personalise your experience.
  • Analytics Cookies: Collect anonymised data about how you interact with the platform — pages visited, time on page, and navigation patterns — to help b58q improve its services.
  • Fraud Prevention Cookies: Support b58q's device fingerprinting and anomaly detection systems to protect against fraud and unauthorised account access.

7.3 Managing Cookies

You may manage cookie preferences through your browser settings. Disabling non-essential cookies may affect the functionality and performance of the b58q platform, including the ability to remain logged in to your account. Strictly necessary cookies cannot be disabled as they are required for core platform operation.

8. Data Retention

b58q retains personal data for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected and to comply with applicable legal, regulatory, and financial record-keeping obligations. The following general retention periods apply:

  • Active account data: Retained for the duration of your account plus a minimum of five (5) years following account closure, in compliance with anti-money laundering regulations
  • Financial transaction records: Retained for a minimum of seven (7) years from the date of transaction in line with financial record-keeping requirements
  • KYC and identity verification documents: Retained for five (5) years following account closure or the last transaction date, whichever is later
  • Support communications: Retained for three (3) years from the date of the interaction
  • Marketing data (where consent given): Retained until you withdraw consent or for two (2) years of inactivity, whichever occurs first
  • Self-exclusion records: Retained indefinitely to prevent re-registration during exclusion periods and to maintain an audit trail of responsible gaming measures

Upon expiry of the applicable retention period, personal data is securely deleted or anonymised in a manner that ensures it can no longer be linked to an individual.

9. Data Security

b58q implements a comprehensive set of technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. These measures include:

  • 256-bit SSL/TLS encryption for all data transmitted between your device and the b58q platform
  • AES-256 encryption at rest for sensitive data including identity documents and financial information stored on b58q servers
  • Role-based access controls limiting staff access to personal data on a strict need-to-know basis
  • Two-factor authentication (2FA) available for all member accounts and mandatory for b58q staff accessing internal systems
  • Continuous intrusion detection and monitoring of platform infrastructure for anomalous activity
  • Regular penetration testing conducted by independent cybersecurity professionals
  • Incident response procedures to ensure timely identification, containment, and notification of any data security incidents
⚠️ Your Responsibility: While b58q takes every reasonable precaution to protect your data, you are also responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials. Never share your b58q password with anyone. Enable 2FA on your account for an additional layer of protection.

10. International Data Transfers

b58q is an international platform and, in the course of providing its services, may transfer your personal data to countries outside of Pakistan for processing by third-party service providers, including cloud infrastructure providers and KYC verification agencies. Where such international transfers occur, b58q ensures that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your data, including contractual data transfer agreements incorporating internationally recognised data protection standards.

b58q will not transfer personal data to jurisdictions that do not provide an adequate level of data protection without first implementing appropriate safeguards consistent with applicable data protection principles.

11. Your Data Protection Rights

As a b58q member, you hold the following rights in respect of your personal data. To exercise any of these rights, please contact b58q's data protection team using the contact details in Section 15. b58q will respond to all valid requests within thirty (30) days, subject to identity verification.

  • Right of Access: Request a copy of the personal data b58q holds about you
  • Right to Rectification: Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal data

Please note that certain rights are subject to limitations where legal obligations require b58q to retain data — for example, financial transaction records required for AML compliance cannot be erased upon request during the mandatory retention period. b58q will clearly communicate any such limitations when responding to your request.

12. Children's Privacy

b58q's platform is strictly intended for adults aged 21 years and over. b58q does not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under the age of 21.

13. Third-Party Links

The b58q platform may contain links to third-party websites, such as game supplier information pages or payment provider portals. b58q is not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those third-party sites. Once you leave the b58q platform by following an external link, this Privacy Policy no longer applies. We recommend reviewing the privacy policy of any third-party site you visit.

14. Updates to This Privacy Policy
