89bet Privacy Policy – How We Handle Your Data

📋 1. Introduction

89bet ("we", "us", "the Platform") is committed to protecting the privacy of everyone who uses our services. This policy applies to all users of the 89bet platform, including the website, mobile app and any other products or features we provide.

The purpose of this policy is to be straightforward about what data we collect, why we collect it, who has access to it and how long we keep it. We have written this in plain language because we believe every player deserves to understand exactly how their information is handled – not just skim through a wall of legal text that nobody reads.

This policy covers all sections of the 89bet platform: sports betting including cricket, PSL and T20 markets, live casino, bingo, the VIP programme, and account management features like deposits and withdrawals in PKR.

📥 2. Data We Collect

We collect different types of information depending on how you interact with 89bet. Here is a clear breakdown:

Information You Provide Directly

• Full name, date of birth and gender (collected at registration)
• Contact details: email address and phone number
• Identity verification documents such as a national identity card or passport, when requested
• Payment account details including JazzCash or Easypaisa account numbers, bank account details for transfers, or card details for card-based deposits
• Any information you provide when contacting support

Information Collected Automatically

• Device information: device type, operating system, browser type and version
• IP address and approximate location derived from it
• Session data: login times, pages visited, features used and duration of activity
• Betting and gaming history: bets placed, games played, deposit and withdrawal history
• Cookie data – explained in more detail in Section 6

🎯 3. How We Use Your Data

89bet only uses your personal data for the purposes listed below. We do not use data in ways that go beyond what is reasonably necessary to operate the platform and serve our players.

• Account management: Creating and maintaining your account, processing login and authentication, and handling account settings changes.
• Payment processing: Facilitating PKR deposits and withdrawals via JazzCash, Easypaisa, Raast, bank transfer and card payments. Your payment details are passed to the relevant payment processor only to the extent needed to complete the transaction.
• Identity verification: Confirming your age and identity when required before processing withdrawals or in response to a verification request.
• Customer support: Responding to queries, resolving disputes and communicating relevant account information.
• Security and fraud prevention: Detecting and preventing unauthorised access, duplicate accounts, bonus abuse and any other activity that may harm the platform or other players.
• Platform improvement: Analysing aggregated, anonymised usage data to understand how players use 89bet and to make improvements to performance, navigation and features.
• Responsible gaming: Monitoring account activity to identify patterns that may indicate problem gambling, and applying tools such as deposit limits or self-exclusion where necessary.
• Legal compliance: Retaining records as required to meet any applicable legal or regulatory obligations.

🤝 4. Data Sharing

89bet does not sell, rent or trade your personal information to any third party. Data is shared only in the specific, limited circumstances described below:

Payment Processors

When you make a deposit or request a withdrawal, your payment details are shared with the relevant payment service provider – for example JazzCash, Easypaisa or your bank – solely to process the transaction. These providers operate under their own privacy policies and security standards.

Identity Verification Services

If account verification is required, your identity documents may be shared with a third-party verification service for the purpose of confirming your identity and age. This data is used only for verification and is not stored by the verification provider beyond what is necessary for that purpose.

Live Casino Game Providers

When you play live casino games, basic session data such as your player ID and game activity is shared with the game provider to facilitate gameplay and settle results. This does not include sensitive personal or financial information beyond what is required for the game session.

Legal Requirements

89bet may disclose personal data if required to do so by applicable law, court order or other legal process. In such cases, we will disclose only the minimum information necessary to comply with the requirement.

💳 5. Payment Data

Financial data receives additional care at 89bet given its sensitivity. All PKR transactions on the platform – whether via JazzCash, Easypaisa, Raast, bank transfer or card – go through encrypted connections. Your full payment account credentials are never stored on 89bet servers in plain text.

What Payment Data We Hold

For the purpose of processing withdrawals and matching them to your registered payment method, 89bet retains a reference to the payment account you used – for example the last four digits of a card or the registered mobile number for a JazzCash or Easypaisa account. Full card numbers and CVV codes are never stored by 89bet.

Third-Party Payment Security

The security of your funds during a transaction is also subject to the security standards of the payment provider you are using. We encourage you to ensure your JazzCash, Easypaisa or bank account has a strong PIN and that you never share your payment credentials with anyone, including 89bet support staff – we will never ask for your full payment PIN or password.

🍪 6. Cookies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. 89bet uses cookies to make the platform work properly and to understand how it is being used.

Types of Cookies We Use

• Essential cookies: Required for basic platform functions such as keeping you logged in during a session and remembering your language or display preferences. These cannot be disabled without affecting how the platform works.
• Analytics cookies: Help us understand which parts of the platform are most used, how players navigate between sections, and where technical issues may be occurring. The data gathered is aggregated and not linked to individual identifiable profiles.
• Security cookies: Used to detect unusual session activity, such as login attempts from an unrecognised device, and to help prevent fraud and account takeover.

Managing Cookies

You can control and delete cookies through your browser settings. Blocking essential cookies will affect your ability to use the platform – for example you may be unable to stay logged in. Blocking analytics cookies will not prevent you from using any feature but will reduce our ability to identify and fix issues that may affect your experience.

🗂️ 7. Data Retention

89bet keeps your personal data only for as long as it is needed for the purpose it was collected, or as required to meet legal obligations. Below is a general guide to how long different types of data are retained:

• Account data: Retained for the duration your account is active and for a period after closure to allow for dispute resolution and compliance with any applicable record-keeping requirements.
• Transaction records: Deposit and withdrawal history in PKR is retained for a period consistent with standard financial record-keeping practices.
• Identity verification documents: Retained for as long as your account is active and for a reasonable period following closure.
• Support communications: Records of customer support interactions are retained to allow for follow-up and quality review, and are deleted on a rolling schedule.
• Session and analytics data: Aggregated analytics data may be retained indefinitely in anonymised form. Identifiable session logs are retained for a limited period for security purposes.

When data is no longer required, it is securely deleted or anonymised so that it can no longer be linked back to you personally.

🛡️ 8. Security Measures

Protecting your personal data is something we take seriously at 89bet. The following security measures are in place across the platform:

• SSL/TLS encryption: All data transmitted between your browser or app and 89bet servers is encrypted in transit using industry-standard SSL/TLS protocols.
• Secure server infrastructure: Account and payment data is stored on secured servers with restricted access. Only authorised personnel with a legitimate operational need can access personal data.
• Login security: Account login is protected by password requirements. We recommend using a unique, strong password for your 89bet account and not reusing it across other services.
• Fraud monitoring: Automated systems monitor for unusual activity including atypical login locations, rapid successive login attempts and suspicious transaction patterns. Accounts flagged by these systems may be temporarily restricted pending review.
• Internal access controls: Staff access to player data is governed by role-based permissions. Access logs are maintained and reviewed periodically.

⚖️ 9. Your Rights

You have several rights regarding the personal data that 89bet holds about you. These are practical rights that you can exercise by contacting our support team through live chat within the platform:

• Right to access: You can request a copy of the personal data we hold about you. We will provide this within a reasonable timeframe.
• Right to correction: If any information held on your account is inaccurate or out of date, you can request that it be corrected. For core account details such as your name or date of birth, verification may be required.
• Right to deletion: You may request deletion of your account and associated personal data. Note that some data may be retained for a period after deletion where required for legal or compliance purposes, and transaction records may not be immediately deletable.
• Right to object: You may object to the processing of your data for any purpose beyond what is strictly necessary to operate your account and process transactions.
• Right to restrict processing: In certain circumstances, you may request that processing of your data be limited while a query or dispute is being resolved.

🔞 10. Minors

89bet is strictly an adult platform. Registration is only permitted for individuals aged 18 years and above. 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 in your care has registered an account or provided personal data to 89bet, please contact our support team immediately via live chat. We will investigate and, if confirmed, close the account and delete the associated data promptly.

Age verification is a standard part of our account review process. Where there is reasonable doubt about a player's age, 89bet may request documentary proof before the account is permitted to place bets or make withdrawals.

📝 11. Policy Changes

89bet may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in how we handle data, changes to the platform's features, or changes in applicable requirements. When we make updates, the revised policy will be published on this page with an updated "Last updated" date.

Where a change is significant – for example, if we were to introduce a new category of data collection or change how data is shared – we will make reasonable efforts to notify active players via email or an in-platform notification before the change takes effect.

Continued use of the 89bet platform after a policy update is published constitutes acceptance of the revised policy. If you disagree with any change, you may contact support to close your account and request deletion of your data as described in Section 9.
