Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how 88ef (operating at https://88ef.wine) collects, uses, stores, and protects the personal information of users who register and use the platform. It applies to all 88ef services, including sports betting, cricket betting, casino games, jackpot slots, live dealer tables, and all promotional and support interactions.

88ef takes privacy seriously — not as a legal formality, but as a genuine obligation to the Pakistani members who trust the platform with their personal and financial information. Every decision about how data is collected or used at 88ef is made with that trust in mind. This policy is written to be readable by anyone, not just lawyers, because we believe you deserve to understand exactly what happens with your information.

Your Consent: By creating an account on 88ef and using the 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 disagree with any part of this policy, please do not create an account or continue using 88ef services.

This policy should be read alongside the 88ef Terms and Conditions and the Responsible Gaming Policy, all of which together form the full agreement between you and 88ef regarding your use of the platform.

02

Data Controller

88ef is the data controller for all personal information collected through the platform at https://88ef.wine. As data controller, 88ef is responsible for determining the purposes and means by which your personal data is processed. The platform operates under a valid gaming licence that requires compliance with applicable data protection standards.

If you have any questions about data controller responsibilities, the identity of our data protection officer, or any aspect of how your personal data is handled, please contact us using the details in Section 16 of this policy.

03

Personal Data We Collect

88ef collects the following categories of personal information from its members:

Category Examples When Collected
Identity Data Full name, date of birth, CNIC number, nationality Registration & KYC verification
Contact Data Mobile number, email address, postal address Registration & account updates
Financial Data Easypaisa/JazzCash wallet number, bank account details, transaction history Deposits & withdrawals
Betting & Gaming Data Bet history, game sessions, stake amounts, winnings, casino activity Ongoing platform use
Technical Data IP address, device type, browser type, operating system, session duration Every platform visit
Communications Data Support chat transcripts, email correspondence, complaint records Customer support interactions
Verification Documents CNIC scans, utility bills, payment proof screenshots KYC process
Marketing Preferences Communication opt-ins/opt-outs, preferred language, notification settings Account settings & preference updates

88ef does not collect sensitive personal data such as racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious beliefs, health data, or biometric data. The only exception is where such information is incidentally contained in a verification document you submit — in which case it is not processed separately or stored beyond the verification purpose.

04

How We Collect Your Information

88ef collects personal data through a number of different channels and methods:

  • Direct collection: Information you provide when registering an account, completing KYC verification, making a deposit, requesting a withdrawal, or contacting customer support.
  • Automated collection: Technical data collected automatically when you access the 88ef platform, including IP address, device identifiers, browser type, and usage patterns via server logs and session tracking.
  • Cookies and similar technologies: Small data files placed on your device to enable platform functionality, maintain your session, remember your preferences, and (with your consent) support analytics. See Section 9 for full cookie details.
  • Third-party sources: Identity verification agencies and fraud detection services may provide additional data to confirm your identity during the KYC process. Payment processors confirm transaction completion data.
  • Inferred data: 88ef analyses your betting and gaming activity to generate inferred information such as preferred sports, betting patterns, and responsible gaming risk indicators. This inference is used to improve your experience and to fulfil responsible gaming obligations, not for marketing profiling.

Why We Use Your Personal Data

88ef uses your personal data for the following specific purposes:

  • To create, manage, and verify your account on the 88ef platform, including processing your registration and KYC documents.
  • To process deposits and withdrawals in PKR through Easypaisa, JazzCash, NayaPay, SadaPay, bank transfers, and card payments.
  • To deliver the betting and casino services you use — recording bets, settling outcomes, applying bonuses, and maintaining your balance history.
  • To provide customer support via Live Chat, email, and other channels, including resolving disputes and processing complaints.
  • To comply with anti-money laundering (AML) and know-your-customer (KYC) obligations required under our gaming licence.
  • To detect and prevent fraud, unauthorised access, and exploitation of the 88ef platform.
  • To monitor betting activity for responsible gaming purposes, identify potential problem gambling patterns, and offer support tools where appropriate.
  • To send you transactional communications — account updates, withdrawal confirmations, security alerts, and important policy changes.
  • To send promotional communications about 88ef offers, bonuses, and new features — where you have opted in to receive such messages.
  • To improve the 88ef platform through aggregated analytics on usage patterns, performance monitoring, and product development decisions.

Marketing Communications: 88ef will only send promotional messages to members who have explicitly opted in. You can withdraw this consent at any time via your account settings or by contacting support. Withdrawing marketing consent does not affect your ability to use the 88ef platform or your entitlement to transactional communications.

07

Sharing Your Personal Data

88ef does not sell your personal data to third parties. Period. The following categories of third parties may receive limited access to your data only where necessary to provide specific services to 88ef or to fulfil legal obligations:

  • Payment processors: Easypaisa, JazzCash, NayaPay, SadaPay, Visa/Mastercard processing partners, and IBFT bank networks receive transaction-specific data necessary to process your deposits and withdrawals.
  • Identity verification providers: Third-party KYC and age verification services receive the documents you submit during account verification to confirm your identity.
  • Game providers: Casino and slot game providers receive a pseudonymous session identifier and stake/win amounts necessary to operate game rounds. They do not receive your full identity data.
  • Fraud and risk management services: Specialised providers may receive technical data (IP address, device fingerprint) to assist in detecting and preventing fraudulent account activity.
  • Regulatory and legal authorities: 88ef will disclose personal data to regulators, law enforcement, or courts when required to do so by law or by a valid legal order.
  • Professional advisers: Lawyers, auditors, and consultants who are bound by confidentiality obligations and require limited access to fulfil their professional roles.

All third parties who receive 88ef user data are subject to data processing agreements that require them to handle the data securely and only for the specific purpose for which it was shared. 88ef does not transfer your data to third parties for their own marketing or commercial purposes.

08

Payment Data and Financial Security

Given that 88ef processes PKR deposits and withdrawals for Pakistani members, payment data receives additional security protections beyond our standard data handling procedures.

All payment transactions on 88ef are processed through encrypted channels. Card data (Visa/Mastercard) is handled by PCI-DSS compliant processors — 88ef itself does not store your full card number at any point. Mobile wallet credentials (Easypaisa, JazzCash numbers) are stored in hashed form and are never visible to 88ef staff in plaintext.

88ef enforces a rule that deposits and withdrawals must be made from payment instruments registered in the same name as the 88ef account. This is both a fraud prevention measure and a data security measure — it ensures that your financial data can only be used in connection with your verified identity.

Transaction history — the record of deposits, withdrawals, and bet settlements — is retained in your account for your reference and for regulatory compliance purposes for a minimum of five years following account closure, as required by applicable financial regulations.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

88ef uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on the platform. A cookie is a small text file placed on your device when you visit a website. Here is how 88ef uses them:

  • Essential cookies: Required for the platform to function. These keep you logged in during your session, maintain your bet slip, remember your language and odds format preferences, and enable secure payment flows. These cannot be disabled without breaking core platform functionality.
  • Performance cookies: Collect anonymised data about how the platform is used — which pages are visited most, where errors occur, and how long sessions last. This data is used solely to improve 88ef and is not linked to your identity.
  • Functionality cookies: Remember your preferences such as your preferred odds format (decimal/fractional/American), notification settings, and sports favourites, so you do not need to re-enter them each visit.
  • Analytics cookies: Used with your consent to understand aggregate usage patterns and improve the platform experience for all 88ef members.

You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings. Blocking all cookies will affect platform functionality — in particular, essential cookies must be accepted for the 88ef platform to operate correctly. A cookie consent notice is displayed when you first visit the platform.

10

How Long We Keep Your Data

88ef retains personal data only for as long as is necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, or as required by applicable law. The following general retention periods apply:

  • Active account data: Retained for the duration of your account and for five years after account closure, to comply with AML, gaming licence, and financial record-keeping obligations.
  • KYC verification documents: Retained for five years following the date of last use or account closure, whichever is later.
  • Transaction records: Retained for a minimum of five years following each transaction.
  • Customer support communications: Retained for two years following the resolution of the interaction, or longer if part of an unresolved dispute or legal matter.
  • Technical and session data: Retained for up to 13 months for security and fraud detection purposes.
  • Marketing consent records: Retained for as long as the consent remains active and for two years following withdrawal of consent.

When personal data is no longer required, 88ef securely deletes or anonymises it so that it can no longer be linked to you. Anonymised aggregate data (used for platform analytics and improvement) may be retained indefinitely as it is no longer personal data.

11

How We Protect Your Data

88ef implements a layered set of technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, disclosure, or destruction:

  • All data transmitted between your device and the 88ef platform is encrypted using 256-bit SSL/TLS protocols — the same standard used by banks and major financial institutions.
  • Sensitive data at rest (including KYC documents and payment credentials) is stored using AES-256 encryption on access-controlled servers.
  • Access to personal data within 88ef is restricted to staff and contractors who have a legitimate need for it and are bound by confidentiality obligations.
  • Two-factor authentication is available for all 88ef accounts and is strongly recommended. It is mandatory for staff accounts with data access.
  • 88ef undergoes regular internal security reviews and third-party penetration testing to identify and address vulnerabilities before they can be exploited.
  • In the event of a personal data breach, 88ef will notify affected users and the relevant regulatory authority within 72 hours of becoming aware of the breach, in line with applicable data protection requirements.

While 88ef takes all reasonable precautions to protect your data, no internet-based system can guarantee absolute security. You can significantly reduce your exposure by using a strong, unique password for your 88ef account and enabling two-factor authentication in your account settings.

12

Your Data Rights

As an 88ef member, you have the following rights in relation to your personal data. To exercise any of these rights, contact the 88ef data team at support@88ef.wine with the subject line "Data Rights Request". We will respond within 30 days of receiving a valid request.

13

Minors and Under-18 Users

88ef is strictly an adult platform for users aged 18 and over. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under the age of 18. If you are a parent or guardian and believe that a minor has created an 88ef account, please contact us immediately at support@88ef.wine so that we can verify and, if necessary, close the account and delete the associated data.

If 88ef discovers during the KYC process or at any other point that an account holder is under 18, the account will be immediately suspended. Any funds deposited by an underage user will be refunded to the original payment source after verification. Winnings accumulated on an underage account will be forfeited.

14

International Data Transfers

88ef's primary servers are located in secure data centres. Some of our third-party service providers — including game providers, KYC verification agencies, and fraud detection services — may process data in locations outside of Pakistan. Where this occurs, 88ef ensures that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your data to a standard equivalent to that described in this policy.

Safeguards for international data transfers include contractual data processing agreements incorporating standard privacy clauses, and in some cases, transfers to jurisdictions that have been assessed as providing an adequate level of data protection. If you want more information about a specific transfer and the safeguards in place, contact us at support@88ef.wine.

15

Changes to This Privacy Policy

88ef may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in how we use data, changes in applicable law, or improvements to our privacy practices. When material changes are made to this policy, registered members will be notified via email or an in-platform notification before the updated policy takes effect.

The updated policy will be published on this page with a revised "Last Updated" date at the top. We encourage you to review this policy periodically. Your continued use of the 88ef platform after an updated policy takes effect constitutes your acceptance of the revised terms.

Encrypted End-to-End

Every piece of data moving between your phone or computer and the 88ef platform travels through a 256-bit SSL-encrypted connection. What you do on 88ef stays between you and 88ef — it cannot be intercepted in transit.
