How ji188 Handles Your Data

01 Introduction

ji188 ("we", "our" or "us") operates the website at https://ji188.cam (the "Platform"). This Privacy Policy sets out how ji188 collects, uses, stores, discloses and protects personal data provided by or collected from users ("you" or "your") when you access or use the Platform.

ji188 is an English-language online casino and sports betting information platform. We serve Pakistani users across Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, Rawalpindi, Faisalabad, Multan, Peshawar and throughout Pakistan. The Platform provides educational content, game guides, bonus term explanations and responsible gambling resources. ji188 does not operate gambling services and does not hold a Pakistan gambling licence.

We are committed to handling your personal data transparently, responsibly and in accordance with applicable data protection standards. This Policy should be read alongside our Terms & Conditions. By using the Platform, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy.

03 Data Controller

Where third-party service providers (Data Processors) process data on our behalf, we maintain appropriate data processing arrangements to ensure your data is handled in accordance with the standards set out in this Policy.

If you have any questions or concerns about how your Personal Data is processed, or wish to exercise any of your rights described in Section 11 of this Policy, please contact us using the details provided in Section 16.

When you interact with certain features of the Platform, you may provide us with Personal Data directly. This may include:

• Name and contact email address (where provided through contact or support enquiries).
• Account registration information, such as a chosen username, where account functionality is available on the Platform.
• Communications you send to us via email or support channels, including the content of those communications.
• Any other information you voluntarily submit through forms or interactive features on the Platform.

4.2 Data Collected Automatically

When you visit the Platform, certain technical information is collected automatically through cookies, server logs and similar technologies:

• IP address and approximate geographic location (country/city level — e.g., Karachi, Lahore or Islamabad).
• Browser type, version and operating system.
• Device type and screen resolution.
• Pages visited, time spent on each page, navigation path and referral URL.
• Date and time of access.
• Session duration and interaction patterns.

4.3 Data We Do Not Collect

ji188 does not collect, process or store payment card details, bank account numbers, CNIC (Computerised National Identity Card) information, biometric data or any other Sensitive Personal Data through this Platform. ji188 does not process real-money gambling transactions and therefore does not hold financial account data of any kind.

05 How We Use Your Data

ji188 uses Personal Data collected from Users for the following purposes:

We do not use your Personal Data for automated decision-making that produces legal or similarly significant effects without human review. We do not use your data for profiling based on protected characteristics. We do not sell your Personal Data to third parties for their own commercial purposes.

06 Legal Basis for Processing

We process Personal Data only where a recognised legal basis exists for doing so. The primary legal bases on which ji188 relies are as follows:

• Consent: Where you have provided clear, informed consent to a specific processing activity — for example, by accepting cookie use or opting into a communication preference. You may withdraw consent at any time by contacting us as described in Section 16.
• Contractual Necessity: Where processing is necessary to perform obligations under a contract with you — for example, managing your Platform account or responding to a support request you have submitted.
• Legitimate Interests: Where processing is necessary for purposes that are in our legitimate interests and do not override your fundamental rights and freedoms. This includes maintaining the security and integrity of the Platform, analysing aggregated usage patterns and preventing fraud or abuse.
• Legal Obligation: Where processing is necessary for compliance with an applicable legal or regulatory obligation.

07 Data Sharing & Disclosure

7.1 Service Providers (Data Processors)

ji188 may share Personal Data with carefully selected third-party service providers who assist us in operating the Platform. These providers act as Data Processors under our instructions and are contractually bound to process data only as directed and to maintain appropriate security standards. Categories of service providers may include web hosting and content delivery providers, analytics platform providers, email delivery services and customer support tooling.

7.2 Legal Disclosure

ji188 may disclose Personal Data to law enforcement authorities, regulatory bodies, courts or other public authorities where required to do so by applicable law, court order or regulatory direction. We will inform you of any such disclosure to the extent permitted by law.

7.3 No Sale of Data

ji188 does not sell, rent or trade your Personal Data to any third party for their own marketing or commercial use. We do not share identifiable user data with online gambling operators, payment processors (including Easypaisa, JazzCash, Raast, HBL, UBL, Meezan Bank or Bank Alfalah), advertisers or data brokers. Those payment provider names appear on this Platform as familiar Pakistani payment references only and have no data-processing relationship with ji188 through this Platform.

7.4 Business Transfers

In the event of a merger, acquisition, restructuring or sale of some or all of ji188's assets, Personal Data held by ji188 may be transferred to the acquiring entity as part of that transaction. Users will be notified of any such transfer and any material change to this Privacy Policy that results from it.

08 Cookies & Tracking Technologies

8.1 What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device by a website when you visit it. They allow the website to recognise your device on subsequent visits, store your preferences and gather analytical data about how the site is used. Cookies do not directly identify you as a named individual but may constitute Personal Data when combined with other information.

8.2 Types of Cookies We Use

• Strictly Necessary Cookies: Required for the basic functioning of the Platform, including session management and security features. These cannot be disabled without affecting Platform functionality.
• Analytical / Performance Cookies: Help us understand how users interact with the Platform — which pages are visited most, how long users stay, and where they come from. Data collected is aggregated and anonymised where possible.
• Functionality Cookies: Remember your preferences (such as language or display settings) to provide a more personalised experience across sessions.
• Third-Party Cookies: Where third-party analytics or service tools are integrated into the Platform, those providers may place their own cookies. ji188 does not control third-party cookie behaviour and recommends reviewing the privacy policies of relevant providers.

8.3 Managing Cookies

You can manage, restrict or delete cookies at any time through your browser settings. Most modern browsers allow you to block third-party cookies or to clear all cookies on exit. Note that disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality or performance of the Platform. For guidance specific to your browser, refer to your browser's help documentation.

09 Data Retention

ji188 retains Personal Data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by applicable law.

• Account data: Retained for the duration of your account and for a reasonable period thereafter to allow for dispute resolution and fraud prevention, typically no longer than 24 months following account closure unless legal obligations require otherwise.
• Support communications: Retained for up to 12 months following the resolution of a support query, unless the content is relevant to an ongoing legal matter.
• Server logs and analytics data: Aggregated usage data is retained for up to 26 months; raw IP-level access logs are typically deleted or anonymised within 90 days.
• Legal hold: Where data is subject to a legal hold, regulatory investigation or court order, it will be retained for the duration of that requirement regardless of the standard retention periods above.

When Personal Data is no longer required, it is securely deleted or irreversibly anonymised in accordance with our data management procedures.

10 Data Security

ji188 implements appropriate technical and organisational security measures to protect Personal Data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, destruction, disclosure or alteration. These measures include, but are not limited to:

• HTTPS/TLS encryption for all data transmitted between your browser and the Platform's servers.
• Access controls limiting data access to authorised personnel only, on a need-to-know basis.
• Regular security assessments of the Platform's infrastructure and hosting environment.
• Contractual security requirements imposed on all third-party Data Processors.
• Incident response procedures to address any suspected data breach promptly.

Notwithstanding these measures, no method of electronic data transmission or storage is 100% secure. ji188 cannot guarantee absolute security and encourages Users to take their own precautions, including using strong passwords, enabling two-factor authentication where available, and accessing the Platform only over secure network connections. Avoid accessing the Platform over unsecured public Wi-Fi, particularly in public spaces in Karachi, Lahore or other major cities where network security cannot be verified.

In the event of a data breach that is likely to result in risk to your rights and freedoms, ji188 will notify affected Users and, where required, the relevant supervisory authority in accordance with applicable law.

11 Your Rights

Subject to applicable law, you have the following rights in respect of your Personal Data held by ji188. To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at the details in Section 16. We will respond to all valid requests within a reasonable timeframe, typically within 30 days.

12 Children's Privacy

🔞 The Platform is not directed at children or minors. ji188 does not knowingly collect Personal Data from individuals under the age of 18 — or the higher minimum age required by the relevant operator or licence jurisdiction. If we become aware that we have inadvertently collected Personal Data from a minor, we will take immediate steps to delete that data.

If you are a parent or guardian and believe that a minor in your care has provided Personal Data to ji188 without your consent, please contact us immediately at [email protected] and we will act promptly to investigate and resolve the matter.

13 Third-Party Links & Services

The Platform may contain references to or educational content about third-party online gaming operators, payment services and other external entities. ji188 does not operate these third-party services and is not responsible for their privacy practices. Any data you provide directly to a third-party operator, payment service or other external platform is governed by that entity's own privacy policy, not this one.

References to payment providers such as Easypaisa, JazzCash, Raast, HBL, UBL, Meezan Bank and Bank Alfalah are made on this Platform purely as familiar Pakistani payment context. ji188 has no data-sharing relationship with any of these providers through this Platform and does not transmit user data to them.

ji188 recommends that users review the privacy policies of any third-party operator or service before providing Personal Data to them, particularly in connection with account registration, KYC verification, deposit or withdrawal processes.

14 International Data Transfers

ji188's Platform and associated infrastructure may involve the transfer of Personal Data to, or processing of Personal Data in, countries outside of Pakistan. Where such transfers occur, ji188 takes steps to ensure that adequate safeguards are in place to protect your Personal Data to a standard consistent with the principles of this Privacy Policy.

These safeguards may include contractual data protection clauses incorporated into agreements with Data Processors, the use of service providers operating in jurisdictions with recognised data protection standards, or other appropriate transfer mechanisms.

By using the Platform, you acknowledge that your data may be processed in jurisdictions outside Pakistan. If you have questions about the safeguards in place for international transfers of your data, please contact us as described in Section 16.

15 Updates to This Privacy Policy

ji188 may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our data practices, legal obligations or operational requirements. When material changes are made, we will update the "Effective Date" at the top of this page and, where practicable, post a notice on the Platform drawing attention to the changes.

We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically. Your continued use of the Platform after any changes to this Policy constitutes your acknowledgment of the revised terms. If you do not agree to the revised Privacy Policy, you should cease using the Platform and may contact us to request deletion of your Personal Data as described in Section 11.
