This Privacy Policy explains how pk30 collects, uses, stores and protects your personal data when you use our Platform. We are committed to handling your information with care, transparency and respect.
A plain-English summary of the key privacy topics. The full legally binding text follows in the sections below.
We collect personal data you provide during registration and verification, technical data generated by your device, and behavioural data from your interactions with the Platform. We collect only what is necessary for our stated purposes.
Your data is used to operate your account, deliver Platform services, comply with legal obligations, prevent fraud, improve the user experience and, where you have consented, send relevant communications.
We never sell your personal data. We share data only with carefully selected service providers who operate under binding data-processing agreements, and with authorities where legally required.
We apply industry-standard technical and organisational security measures including HTTPS/TLS encryption, access controls, pseudonymisation where appropriate, and regular security reviews.
You have the right to access, correct, delete or restrict processing of your personal data. You may also withdraw consent where it forms the legal basis for processing. Contact us at any time to exercise these rights.
We use essential cookies and, with your consent, analytics and preference cookies. You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings. We do not use cookies to build advertising profiles for third-party ad networks.
This Privacy Policy (the "Policy") sets out how pk30, operating at https://pk30.cam (the "Platform"), collects, processes, stores, shares and protects personal data relating to users of the Platform. It also explains the rights available to you in respect of your personal data and how you may exercise those rights.
pk30 is an independent online gambling information and review platform. We do not operate a casino, accept wagers or process real-money transactions directly. Nevertheless, the personal data that users share with us in the course of accessing our guides, reviews and educational content is treated with the same level of care and rigour that any responsible data handler should apply.
This Policy applies to all personal data processed by pk30 in connection with the Platform, including data collected through account registration, contact forms, cookies, analytics tools and any other channel through which you interact with us. It does not cover the data-handling practices of third-party operators, payment providers or other external services that may be referenced on the Platform — each of those parties maintains its own privacy documentation that you should review independently.
By continuing to use the Platform after this Policy has been made available to you, you acknowledge that you have read and understood its terms. If you disagree with any part of this Policy, please cease use of the Platform and contact us to request deletion of any data we may hold about you.
The following terms carry the meanings set out below throughout this Policy:
For the purposes of this Policy, the Data Controller responsible for your personal data is pk30, operating the Platform at https://pk30.cam.
pk30 determines the purposes for which and the means by which personal data collected through the Platform is processed. Where pk30 engages third-party Data Processors, it does so under binding data-processing agreements that require those processors to handle personal data only on pk30's documented instructions and to implement appropriate security measures.
All enquiries, requests and formal complaints relating to the processing of your personal data should be directed to pk30 using the contact details provided in Section 16 of this Policy.
pk30 collects personal data through several channels. The categories of data we may collect are described below:
4.1 Registration & Account Data. When you create an account on the Platform, we collect information including your chosen username, email address, country of residence and, where provided, your preferred language. We do not require you to provide your full legal name or national identity number (CNIC) to register on pk30 directly, though third-party Operators you access via the Platform will have their own KYC requirements.
4.2 Communication Data. When you contact us via our support email or any enquiry channel, we collect the content of your message, your email address and any other information you voluntarily include in your correspondence.
4.3 Technical & Device Data. We automatically collect certain technical information when you access the Platform, including your IP address, browser type and version, operating system, device type, screen resolution, referring URL and pages visited. This data is used primarily for security, performance monitoring and analytics purposes.
4.4 Usage & Behavioural Data. We collect information about how you interact with the Platform — including which guides you read, how long you spend on individual pages, which links you click and your navigation path through the site. This data helps us understand user needs and improve our content.
4.5 Cookie Data. We collect data through cookies and similar tracking technologies as described in Section 10 of this Policy.
4.6 Summary of Data Categories:
| Category | Examples | Collection Method |
|---|---|---|
| Identity Data | Username, email address, country of residence | Provided by you during registration |
| Communication Data | Support messages, enquiry content | Provided by you via contact channels |
| Technical Data | IP address, browser type, device type, OS | Collected automatically on access |
| Usage Data | Pages visited, time on page, links clicked | Collected automatically via analytics |
| Cookie Data | Session tokens, preference settings, analytics IDs | Placed on your device via browser |
pk30 processes personal data only where a valid legal basis exists for doing so. The legal bases upon which we rely are as follows:
pk30 uses your personal data for the following specific purposes, each of which is supported by a valid legal basis as described in Section 5:
7.1 No Sale of Data. pk30 does not sell, rent or otherwise trade your personal data to third parties for commercial purposes. This is an absolute policy commitment — not a qualified statement.
7.2 Service Providers. We share personal data with carefully selected third-party service providers who assist us in operating the Platform. These include cloud hosting providers, analytics platforms, email delivery services and security monitoring tools. All such providers are engaged under binding data-processing agreements that restrict their use of your data to the specific services they provide to pk30.
7.3 Legal Disclosure. We may disclose personal data to law enforcement agencies, regulatory authorities, courts or other public bodies where we are legally required or compelled to do so — for example, in response to a valid court order, regulatory investigation or statutory reporting obligation.
7.4 Business Transfers. In the event of a merger, acquisition, restructuring or sale of all or part of pk30's business, personal data held by pk30 may form part of the transferred assets. In such circumstances, we will take reasonable steps to ensure that the receiving party commits to treating your personal data in accordance with this Policy or an equivalent standard.
7.5 Aggregated & Anonymised Data. We may share aggregated, anonymised statistical data — for example, overall Platform usage statistics or content engagement trends — with third parties including research organisations, content partners or media. Aggregated data does not identify individual users and therefore does not constitute sharing of personal data for the purposes of this Policy.
7.6 Payment References. pk30 does not process financial transactions. References to payment providers such as Easypaisa, JazzCash, Raast, HBL, UBL, Meezan Bank and Bank Alfalah on the Platform are educational in nature. Any personal or financial data you share with those providers is subject to their own, separate privacy policies.
pk30 retains personal data only for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by applicable legal obligations. The following general retention periods apply:
| Data Category | Retention Period | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
| Account registration data | Duration of account + 2 years post-closure | Service delivery; dispute resolution |
| Support correspondence | 3 years from last interaction | Complaint resolution; legal defence |
| Technical / log data | Up to 12 months | Security monitoring; fraud detection |
| Analytics data | Up to 26 months (anonymised thereafter) | Platform improvement; trend analysis |
| Cookie data | Per cookie lifespan (see Section 10) | Session management; preference storage |
Where personal data is no longer required for any active purpose and no legal obligation requires its continued retention, pk30 will securely delete or anonymise that data in a timely manner.
pk30 implements a range of technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, destruction, alteration or disclosure. These measures include:
pk30 uses cookies and similar technologies to enable core Platform functionality, remember your preferences and collect analytics data. The categories of cookies we use are described below:
| Cookie Type | Purpose | Consent Required |
|---|---|---|
| Essential / Strictly Necessary | Enable core functions such as session management, security tokens and navigation. The Platform cannot function properly without these. | No — these are placed on the basis of legitimate interests / contractual necessity |
| Analytics / Performance | Collect anonymised usage data to help us understand how users engage with the Platform — pages visited, time on page, navigation paths. | Yes — placed only with your consent |
| Preference / Functional | Remember settings such as language preference, display options and previously dismissed notices. | Yes — placed only with your consent |
10.1 Managing Cookies. You can control and delete cookies through your browser settings. Instructions for major browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge) are available via those browsers' respective help documentation. Please note that disabling essential cookies may impair your ability to use the Platform correctly.
10.2 No Third-Party Advertising Cookies. pk30 does not place or permit advertising network cookies on the Platform. We do not build advertising profiles of our users or share browsing data with third-party advertising exchanges.
10.3 Do Not Track. Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" (DNT) signal. pk30 acknowledges DNT signals and treats them as a preference for minimal data collection, though industry-wide DNT standards are not yet universally implemented.
pk30 operates as a globally accessible Platform, and some of our service providers may be located in or process data in countries outside Pakistan. Where personal data is transferred to countries that do not have a domestic data protection framework equivalent to international best practice, pk30 will take appropriate safeguards to ensure that your data continues to receive adequate protection.
Such safeguards may include contractual clauses that impose data protection obligations on the recipient party, or reliance on the service provider's participation in a recognised international data protection framework.
By using the Platform and submitting personal data, you acknowledge that your data may be transferred to and stored in jurisdictions outside Pakistan. pk30 takes this responsibility seriously and will not transfer personal data to a third-party processor in any jurisdiction without first assessing the adequacy of protections in place.
Subject to applicable law and limited exceptions, you have the following rights in respect of the personal data that pk30 holds about you. To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the details provided in Section 16.
You may request a copy of the personal data we hold about you, along with information about how it is being processed. We will respond within 30 days of a verified request.
If any personal data we hold about you is inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to request that it be corrected or updated without undue delay.
You may request the deletion of your personal data where it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, where you withdraw consent, or where processing is unlawful. Exceptions apply where retention is required by law.
In certain circumstances — for example, while the accuracy of data is being contested — you may request that we restrict the active processing of your personal data without deleting it.
Where processing is based on consent or contractual necessity and carried out by automated means, you may request your data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format for transfer to another service.
You have the right to object to processing based on legitimate interests, including profiling. If you object, we will cease processing unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds that override your interests.
Where processing is based solely on your consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing that took place before the withdrawal.
If you believe that pk30 has handled your personal data unlawfully, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the relevant supervisory authority in the jurisdiction where you reside or where the alleged infringement occurred.
The Platform is strictly intended for users who are at least 18 years of age, or the higher minimum age required by the licensing jurisdiction of any Operator referenced on the Platform. pk30 does not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under the applicable minimum age.
If you are a parent or guardian and believe that a minor in your care has submitted personal data to pk30, please contact us immediately at the details provided in Section 16. Upon verification, we will take prompt steps to delete any data associated with the minor's use of the Platform.
Parents and guardians are encouraged to use parental control software and browser-level content filters to prevent underage access to gambling-related information platforms.
The Platform may reference or describe third-party operators, payment services and other external organisations in the context of its educational and review content. Any such references are informational only. pk30 does not embed live third-party trackers or advertising pixels, and we do not share user data with referenced third parties on the basis of that content alone.
If you choose to follow a reference to a third-party operator's platform — whether for the purpose of registration, deposit, wagering or any other activity — that third party's own privacy policy will apply to the data you share with them. pk30 accepts no responsibility for the privacy practices of third-party operators, payment providers, or any other external service you access independently of the Platform.
We recommend that Pakistani users review the privacy policies of any Operator carefully before creating an account or sharing personal or financial data, paying particular attention to data retention practices, KYC procedures and cross-border transfer arrangements.
pk30 reserves the right to update or modify this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in our data-handling practices, legal obligations or Platform operations. When we make material changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page and, where appropriate, provide additional notice to registered users.
Your continued use of the Platform following the publication of a revised Policy constitutes your acceptance of the updated terms. We recommend that you review this Policy periodically. If you do not agree with any changes, please cease use of the Platform and contact us to request deletion of your personal data.
For all privacy-related enquiries, data subject access requests, complaints or correspondence regarding this Policy, please contact the pk30 data team using the details below. All communications must be submitted in English.
