10.4 Identity Verification. To protect your data from unauthorised disclosure, PK998 may require you to verify your identity before responding to any data rights request.
11.1 The PK998 Platform contains gambling-related content and is strictly intended for adults only. Persons under the age of 18 — or such higher minimum age as required by the operator or license jurisdiction applicable to any gambling service — are not permitted to access or use the Platform.

11.3 We strongly encourage parents and guardians to monitor their children's internet use and to make use of parental controls available on devices and through internet service providers to prevent minors from accessing gambling content.
12.1 The Platform serves users primarily in Pakistan. PK998's hosting and processing infrastructure may be located in jurisdictions outside of Pakistan. Where Personal Data is transferred internationally, PK998 implements appropriate safeguards — such as standard contractual clauses or equivalent transfer mechanisms — to ensure an adequate level of data protection is maintained.
12.2 Where you access the Platform from Pakistan, you acknowledge that your data may be processed in jurisdictions with differing data protection frameworks. PK998 takes reasonable steps to ensure these transfers comply with applicable data protection principles.
13.1 The Platform may contain references to or contextual discussion of third-party services, including gambling operators, payment brands (such as Easypaisa, JazzCash, Raast, HBL, UBL, Meezan Bank and Bank Alfalah) and sports bodies. These references are for informational and localisation context only.
13.2 PK998 is not responsible for the privacy practices of any third-party platform, operator or service you may access outside of pk998.cam. We strongly recommend that you review the privacy policy of any third-party service before providing them with your Personal Data.
13.3 Any Personal Data you provide directly to a third-party operator, payment service or other entity is governed solely by that entity's own privacy policy, not this one.
14.1 PK998 reserves the right to update or amend this Privacy Policy at any time. The revised Policy will be published at this URL with an updated "Last updated" date at the top of the page.
