We are committed to handling your personal information with care, clarity and full transparency. This Privacy Policy explains exactly what data we collect, how we use it, who we share it with and what controls you have over it.
All data transmitted between your browser and the zq786 platform is protected using industry-standard SSL/TLS encryption. We implement access controls and regular security reviews to safeguard stored personal information.
You have the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of any personal data we hold about you. Requests can be submitted by contacting support at the email address provided at the end of this policy.
We use cookies to improve platform performance, understand user behaviour in aggregate and deliver a more relevant experience. You can manage your cookie preferences at any time through your browser settings.
zq786 does not sell your personal data to third parties for direct marketing purposes. Data shared with third-party service providers is governed by data processing agreements and limited to what is strictly necessary.
We retain personal data only for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this policy, or as required by applicable legal obligations. Inactive account data is subject to review and deletion schedules.
You may opt out of non-essential communications from zq786 at any time. Transactional messages required to fulfil your requests (such as support responses) are exempt from opt-out as they are necessary for service delivery.
Privacy at a Glance
zq786 collects limited personal data necessary to deliver and improve this information platform. We do not sell personal data. We use cookies. You have rights over your data and can contact us at any time to exercise them. Full details are set out in the clauses below. This policy applies to the zq786 website only — not to any third-party operator whose services are described on this platform.
This Privacy Policy ("Policy") sets out how zq786 ("Platform", "we", "us", "our"), accessible at https://zq786.cam, collects, uses, stores, discloses and protects personal data relating to users ("you", "your") of the Platform.
zq786 is an English-language online gaming information platform designed for Pakistani players. We provide transparent educational and informational content about sports betting, live casino, cricket betting markets, responsible gambling and the online gaming ecosystem. We do not operate a gambling service and do not directly process gambling deposits or withdrawals.
We are committed to handling your personal data responsibly and in accordance with applicable data protection principles. By accessing or using the zq786 Platform, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy.
This Policy should be read alongside our Terms & Conditions and Responsible Gambling Policy, both of which are incorporated by reference.
The following definitions apply throughout this Policy:
When you interact with the Platform — for example by submitting a contact enquiry — you may provide us with:
zq786 does not operate account registration directly. Any account a user creates in connection with an Operator is created with and held by that Operator under their own privacy terms.
When you visit the Platform, we may automatically collect technical and behavioural data, including:
| Data Type | Examples | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Device & Browser Data | Browser type, OS, screen resolution, device model | Platform optimisation and compatibility |
| IP Address | Approximate geographic location (city/country level) | Fraud prevention, analytics, access control |
| Usage Data | Pages visited, time on page, referral URL, click paths | Content improvement and user experience analysis |
| Session Data | Session duration, navigation patterns, scroll depth | Performance monitoring and content optimisation |
| Cookie Identifiers | Analytics cookie IDs, preference cookies | Session management, analytics, personalisation |
zq786 does not collect, store or process the following data types:
We use the personal data described in Clause 3 for the following purposes:
We do not use personal data for automated profiling or algorithmic decision-making that produces legal or similarly significant effects on users.
To the extent that applicable international data protection frameworks require a legal basis for the processing of personal data, zq786 relies on the following bases:
Note on Pakistani Data Protection Law: Pakistan enacted the Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA) framework to govern data processing. While the legislative implementation timeline is subject to development, zq786 applies internationally recognised data protection principles consistent with applicable law. This is not legal advice.
We may engage third-party service providers acting as data Processors to assist in operating the Platform — for example, web hosting providers, analytics services and customer support tools. All such providers are engaged under data processing agreements that limit their use of personal data to the specific services they provide and prohibit them from using data for their own independent marketing purposes.
zq786 may contain informational references to third-party gambling Operators. If you navigate from the Platform to an Operator website and create an account there, the data you provide to that Operator is governed entirely by the Operator's own privacy policy. zq786 is not responsible for the data practices of any Operator.
We may disclose personal data where required to do so by applicable law, regulation, court order or the lawful request of a competent authority — including, where applicable, law enforcement agencies in Pakistan or in any other jurisdiction with authority over the Platform.
zq786 does not sell, rent or trade personal data to third parties for advertising or commercial marketing purposes. This applies to all user data categories described in Clause 3.
In the event of a merger, acquisition, reorganisation or sale of all or part of the Platform's assets, personal data held by zq786 may be transferred to the acquiring entity, subject to the same or equivalent data protection standards as described in this Policy.
| Cookie Type | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly Necessary | Essential for the Platform to function. Cannot be disabled. | Session |
| Analytics / Performance | Collect aggregate, anonymised data on how users interact with the Platform. | Up to 24 months |
| Functional / Preference | Remember user preferences such as language or display settings. | Up to 12 months |
| Marketing / Targeting | Used only where explicit consent has been given. May track visits across sites. | Up to 12 months |
You may control and manage cookie preferences through your browser settings. Most modern browsers — including those on Android and iOS devices commonly used across Pakistan — allow you to block, delete or restrict cookies. Please note that disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of the Platform.
Detailed guidance on managing cookies in common browsers is available from the browser developer's support pages. zq786 does not provide links to external resources in this document.
Some browsers transmit "Do Not Track" (DNT) signals. The Platform does not currently alter its data collection behaviour in response to DNT signals, as no universal standard for interpreting such signals has been formally adopted.
zq786 retains personal data only for as long as is necessary to fulfil the specific purpose for which it was collected, or as required by applicable legal, regulatory or compliance obligations. Our general retention principles are as follows:
Upon expiry of the applicable retention period, personal data is securely deleted or anonymised in a manner that prevents reconstruction.
zq786 implements appropriate technical and organisational security measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, destruction or disclosure. These measures include:
No method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure. Whilst we apply commercially reasonable security standards, we cannot guarantee the absolute security of data transmitted over the internet. Users are encouraged to use secure and up-to-date browsers and to avoid accessing the Platform from unsecured public networks.
In the event of a data breach that is likely to result in a risk to the rights and freedoms of individuals, we will take appropriate steps in accordance with applicable data breach notification obligations.
The Platform may use service providers located outside Pakistan, including in jurisdictions within the European Economic Area (EEA) or other countries that apply recognised data protection frameworks. Where personal data is transferred internationally, we take reasonable steps to ensure that the receiving party provides an adequate level of data protection consistent with the principles of this Policy.
Users in Pakistan should note that the international transfer of personal data may be subject to Pakistan's applicable data protection legislation as it develops. This is not legal advice; users are encouraged to seek independent legal guidance on data transfer implications where relevant.
Subject to applicable law, you have the following rights in relation to your personal data held by zq786. To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the details in Clause 16. We will respond to valid requests within a reasonable timeframe, typically within 30 days.
Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you, along with information on how it is used.
Request correction of any inaccurate or incomplete personal data we hold about you.
Request deletion of your personal data where it is no longer necessary, or where you have withdrawn consent.
Request that we restrict how we process your data in certain circumstances, pending review or dispute resolution.
Request a structured, machine-readable copy of personal data you have provided to us, where technically feasible.
Object to the processing of your personal data for direct marketing or where processing is based on legitimate interests.
These rights are not absolute and may be subject to limitations under applicable law. For example, we may need to retain certain data to comply with legal obligations even following a valid erasure request.
The zq786 Platform is strictly intended for adults aged 18 or above (or the higher minimum age required by the applicable operator or licence jurisdiction). The Platform is not directed at persons under 18 years of age, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from minors.
If we become aware that personal data has been inadvertently collected from a person under the applicable minimum age, we will take prompt steps to delete that data. Parents and guardians who believe their child may have accessed the Platform or provided personal data should contact us immediately at the email address in Clause 16.
Parental Controls: We encourage parents and guardians to use internet filtering tools to restrict access to gambling-related content. 18+ age restrictions are set by operators in line with their licensing requirements. Age alone does not determine the lawfulness of gambling in Pakistan.
The Platform may contain informational references to third-party gambling Operators and may facilitate navigation to those Operators' websites. Once you leave the zq786 Platform and access a third-party website, this Privacy Policy no longer applies.
Each Operator operates under its own privacy policy, data protection framework and applicable regulatory requirements. We strongly encourage you to review the privacy policy of any Operator whose platform you access before submitting personal data to that platform.
zq786 accepts no responsibility for the privacy practices, data security standards or cookie policies of any third-party operator or website referenced on the Platform.
The Platform references Pakistani payment methods — including Easypaisa, JazzCash, Raast, HBL, UBL, Meezan Bank and Bank Alfalah — as familiar contextual references for Pakistani players. zq786 does not transmit your data to any of these financial institutions and does not claim that these providers endorse gambling or support this Platform. If you interact with these payment providers directly in connection with any Operator account, your data is handled by those institutions under their own privacy and data policies.
IP-derived geographic location data may identify your approximate city of access — for example, Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, Rawalpindi, Faisalabad, Multan or Peshawar. This data is used for platform analytics and content personalisation only and is not used to identify you as an individual or to share your location with third parties for commercial purposes.
zq786 is not licensed, approved or endorsed by the Government of Pakistan, the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA), the State Bank of Pakistan, any provincial authority or any Pakistani bank or financial institution. This Privacy Policy is published in good faith and in accordance with the data protection principles zq786 applies to its platform. This is not a representation that these practices satisfy every requirement of applicable Pakistani law. Users are encouraged to seek independent legal advice on data privacy matters where relevant.
zq786 reserves the right to update or modify this Privacy Policy at any time. When material changes are made, the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page will be revised. We encourage users to review this Policy periodically to stay informed of how we handle personal data.
Continued use of the Platform following the publication of a revised Privacy Policy constitutes acknowledgement of the changes. If the revised Policy is materially different from the version you previously accepted and you do not agree to the changes, you should discontinue use of the Platform.
To exercise your data rights, raise a privacy concern, request data deletion or ask any question about this Privacy Policy, please contact the zq786 data team using the details below. All contact details are provided as plain text and are not clickable links.
