b9998 takes the privacy and security of every Pakistani player's personal data seriously. This Privacy Policy explains exactly what data we collect, why we collect it, how it is stored and protected, who it may be shared with, and what rights you hold over your own information. Transparency is non-negotiable for us.
All data transmitted between your device and b9998 servers is protected by industry-standard 256-bit SSL/TLS encryption. Your personal and financial information cannot be intercepted in transit.
b9998 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to any third party for marketing or commercial purposes. Your information exists to serve your account — not to generate revenue for advertisers.
You hold rights over your personal data — access, correction, deletion, and portability. b9998 provides clear mechanisms to exercise every one of these rights through your account settings or via our support team.
All b9998 member data is stored on secured servers with access controls, regular security audits, and intrusion detection systems. Only authorised personnel with a legitimate operational need can access member records.
b9998 does not retain your personal data indefinitely. Retention periods are defined by regulatory obligations, legal requirements, and operational necessity. Data no longer needed is securely deleted or anonymised.
b9998's data practices are designed to align with applicable international data protection standards and our licensing obligations. KYC and AML data collection is legally required — we collect only what the regulations mandate.
Summary: b9998 collects only the personal data necessary to operate your account, comply with legal obligations, process payments in PKR, and keep the platform safe. We do not sell your data. You can access, correct, or delete your data at any time by contacting us. This policy explains everything in full detail below.
This Privacy Policy governs the collection, use, storage, disclosure, and protection of personal data by b9998 in connection with the operation of its online sports betting and casino platform at b9998.biz. b9998 is committed to handling the personal information of its Pakistani members — and all users who interact with the platform — responsibly, transparently, and in accordance with applicable data protection principles.
b9998 operates as Pakistan's premier online cricket betting and casino platform. The nature of our services means we necessarily collect certain personal and financial information about our members. This policy explains precisely what that information is, why it is needed, how it is protected, and the rights you hold over it.
By registering an account with b9998, or by using any part of the b9998 platform, you confirm that you have read this Privacy Policy and consent to the collection and use of your personal data as described herein. If you do not agree with any aspect of this Privacy Policy, you must not use b9998.

b9998 uses the personal data it collects for the following specific purposes:
b9998 processes your personal data on one or more of the following legal bases:
7.1 b9998 uses cookies and similar tracking technologies — including local storage, session storage, and device fingerprinting — to operate and improve the platform. Cookies are small data files stored on your device by your browser when you visit b9998.
7.2 Essential Cookies: These cookies are strictly necessary for the b9998 platform to function. They manage your login session, maintain your account authentication status, enable bet placement, and support basic platform security. Essential cookies cannot be disabled without preventing you from using b9998.
7.3 Functional Cookies: These cookies remember your preferences and settings — such as your preferred language, display settings, and responsible gaming configuration — to personalise your b9998 experience across sessions.
7.4 Analytics Cookies: b9998 uses analytics cookies to understand how members use the platform — which features are most used, where users encounter difficulties, and how the platform performs across different devices and connection speeds. This data is collected in aggregated, anonymised form.
7.5 Security and Fraud Cookies: These cookies and device fingerprinting tools support b9998's fraud detection systems by identifying unusual patterns of behaviour or login activity that may indicate unauthorised account access.
7.6 You may manage cookie preferences through your browser settings. Note that disabling cookies other than essential cookies may affect the functionality and performance of the b9998 platform on your device.
8.1 b9998 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to any third party for their own commercial or marketing purposes. This is an absolute commitment.
8.2 b9998 may share your personal data with the following categories of third parties, solely for the purposes described:
8.3 All third parties who process personal data on b9998's behalf are subject to written data processing agreements that restrict their use of your data to the specific purposes for which it was shared and require them to maintain appropriate data security standards.
9.1 b9998 is a platform serving Pakistani users. Some of b9998's technology infrastructure, third-party service providers, and operational systems are located in jurisdictions outside Pakistan. As a result, your personal data may be transferred to and processed in countries other than Pakistan.
9.2 Where personal data is transferred internationally, b9998 takes reasonable steps to ensure that such transfers are conducted with appropriate safeguards in place — including contractual data protection clauses with recipient service providers — designed to ensure that your personal data receives a level of protection comparable to the standards applied within Pakistan.
9.3 By registering and using b9998, you acknowledge and consent to the international transfer of your personal data as described in this section.
Your data security during transfers: Regardless of where your data is processed, b9998's security standards — including 256-bit SSL encryption for data in transit — apply universally. The geographic location of processing does not affect the encryption or security controls applied to your data.
10.1 b9998 retains personal data for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, subject to the minimum retention periods required by applicable legal and regulatory obligations.
10.2 The following indicative retention periods apply:
10.3 Upon expiry of the applicable retention period, personal data is securely deleted or anonymised in a manner that renders it impossible to re-identify the individual to whom it related.
Subject to applicable law and certain exceptions, you hold the following rights in respect of your personal data held by b9998:
You have the right to request a copy of all personal data b9998 holds about you. Upon a valid request, b9998 will provide a summary of your personal data within a reasonable timeframe, typically 30 days. This is sometimes called a Subject Access Request (SAR).
If any personal data b9998 holds about you is inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to request that it be corrected. You may update certain account details directly in your b9998 account settings. For corrections to identity documents or other sensitive data, please contact b9998 support.
You may request the deletion of your personal data in certain circumstances — for example, where the data is no longer needed for the purpose for which it was collected. Note that b9998 is legally required to retain certain data (particularly KYC, AML, and transaction records) for minimum regulatory periods, which take precedence over erasure requests in those specific categories.
In certain circumstances — such as while the accuracy of your data is being verified, or while a complaint is being investigated — you may request that b9998 restrict its processing of your personal data to storage only.
Where processing is based on your consent or on the performance of a contract, and processing is carried out by automated means, you have the right to receive your personal data in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format.
You have the right to object to processing of your personal data carried out on the basis of b9998's legitimate interests, including direct marketing. Where you object to direct marketing, b9998 will cease processing your data for that purpose immediately upon receipt of your objection.
Where processing is based on your consent, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out prior to the withdrawal. To withdraw consent for marketing communications, see Section 14. To withdraw consent for non-essential cookies, adjust your browser settings.
To exercise any of the rights listed above, please contact b9998 support with your request. b9998 will respond within 30 days. Where a request is complex or involves multiple rights, the response period may be extended by a further 60 days, with notification provided to you within the initial 30-day period.
12.1 b9998 implements a comprehensive suite of technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These measures include, but are not limited to:
12.2 While b9998 takes all reasonable steps to protect your personal data, no internet-based platform can guarantee absolute security against all possible threats. You also play a role in protecting your account: use a strong, unique password for your b9998 account, enable two-factor authentication, and never share your login credentials with anyone.
12.3 Data Breach Notification: In the event of a personal data breach that is likely to result in a risk to the rights and freedoms of affected members, b9998 will notify affected members without undue delay, providing details of the nature of the breach, the categories and approximate number of individuals affected, the likely consequences of the breach, and the measures b9998 has taken or proposes to take to address it.
Strictly 21+: b9998 is exclusively for adults aged 21 years and older. b9998 does not knowingly collect personal data from any individual under the age of 21. If b9998 discovers or has reason to believe that a registered account belongs to a person under 21, that account will be immediately closed, all funds will be withheld pending investigation, and any personal data collected will be deleted.
13.1 b9998's mandatory CNIC-based identity verification process is specifically designed to prevent minors from registering accounts. The CNIC contains date-of-birth information that b9998 verifies as part of the KYC process.
13.2 If you are a parent or guardian and you believe that a person under 21 in your care has accessed or registered with b9998, please contact b9998 support immediately. b9998 will act promptly to close the account and remove associated personal data.
14.1 b9998 may send you marketing communications — including promotional bonus offers, match-day betting promotions, PSL season campaigns, and platform feature announcements — via SMS to your registered Pakistani mobile number or via email, subject to your consent.
14.2 You may indicate your marketing communication preferences during the account registration process. You may update these preferences at any time through your b9998 account settings or by contacting b9998 support.
14.3 b9998 will continue to send you transactional and account-related communications — including deposit confirmations, withdrawal notifications, account security alerts, and responsible gaming communications — regardless of your marketing communication preferences, as these are necessary for the operation of your account.
14.4 b9998 does not share your contact details with third parties for the purpose of those third parties sending you marketing communications.
15.1 b9998 reserves the right to update or revise this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in applicable law, b9998's data practices, or platform operations. The "Last Updated" date at the top of this page will be updated accordingly whenever material changes are made.
15.2 Where changes are material — meaning they substantively affect your rights or how your personal data is used — b9998 will notify registered members via their registered mobile number or email address prior to the changes taking effect.
15.3 Your continued use of b9998 following notification of a revised Privacy Policy constitutes your acceptance of the updated terms. If you do not agree with a material change to this Privacy Policy, you should contact b9998 to request account closure before the revised policy takes effect.
