At pk56, your privacy is not an afterthought — it is a core commitment. This Privacy Policy explains exactly what personal data we collect from players across Pakistan, why we collect it, how we use it, and the rights you hold over your own information.
Six principles that define how pk56 handles your personal data every single day. Full details are in the policy sections below.
pk56 collects only the personal data that is strictly necessary to provide our Services, comply with regulatory KYC obligations, and process your transactions in Pakistani Rupees. We do not harvest data for its own sake.
All data transmitted between your browser or device and the pk56 platform is protected with industry-standard 256-bit SSL/TLS encryption. Your payment details, login credentials, and personal information are secured in transit and at rest.
pk56 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third-party marketers or data brokers under any circumstances. Your data belongs to you and is used exclusively to operate and improve the pk56 platform for players in Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, and across Pakistan.
You have the right to access, correct, export, and request deletion of your personal data held by pk56 at any time. Submit a data request to our support team and we will respond within the timeframes set out in this policy.
pk56 uses cookies and similar tracking technologies only for purposes that are necessary for platform function, security, or performance analytics. Our Cookie Policy — summarised within this document — explains exactly what we set and why.
pk56 retains your personal data only for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by applicable regulatory and legal obligations. Once the retention period expires, data is securely deleted or anonymised.
This Privacy Policy ("Policy") describes how pk56 ("we", "us", "our", "the Company") collects, uses, stores, shares, and protects the personal information of players, registered account holders, and visitors to the pk56 platform at pk56.pro (the "Platform"). It applies to all Services offered by pk56, including casino games, live dealer tables, cricket and sports betting, slot games, Mines, and all associated account management and transaction services.
By creating a pk56 account, accessing the Platform in any capacity, or making use of any of our Services, you confirm that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy and that you consent to the collection and use of your personal data as described herein. If you do not agree to this Policy, please discontinue your use of the Platform immediately.
This Policy should be read alongside our Terms & Conditions and our Responsible Gaming policy, both of which form part of your agreement with pk56.
pk56 operates an online gaming and sports betting platform targeting English-speaking players in Pakistan and internationally. The Platform provides a range of wagering products including live casino, slots, Mines, cricket betting, and sports markets, all denominated in Pakistani Rupees (PKR).
For the purposes of this Privacy Policy, pk56 is the data controller — meaning we determine the purposes and means of processing your personal data. If you have any questions about our role as data controller or about this Policy, please contact us at:
pk56 collects the following categories of personal data, depending on how you interact with the Platform:
Full legal name, date of birth, nationality, and government-issued identity document details (such as CNIC number) collected during account registration and KYC verification. This data is required to confirm your identity and verify that you meet the minimum age requirement of 21 years.
Email address, Pakistani mobile phone number, and residential address. These are used to communicate account information, transaction notifications, and to satisfy address verification requirements under our KYC process.
Payment method details necessary to process deposits and withdrawals, including JazzCash mobile wallet numbers, EasyPaisa account references, HBL, UBL, and Meezan Bank account details (IBAN), and Visa/Mastercard details where applicable. Full card numbers are never stored by pk56 — payment card processing is handled by our certified payment processing partners.
Records of all deposits, withdrawals, bets, game rounds, bonus claims, and account balance adjustments associated with your pk56 account.
IP address, device type, browser type and version, operating system, device identifiers, and session timestamps. This data is collected automatically when you access the Platform and is used for security monitoring, fraud prevention, and platform performance optimisation.
Information about how you use the Platform, including pages visited, games played, time spent on different sections, bet history patterns, and navigation paths. This data helps us understand player behaviour and improve the user experience.
Records of your correspondence with pk56's customer support team, including live chat transcripts, email threads, and any documentation you submit in connection with a support request, dispute, or KYC query.

pk56 implements a comprehensive set of technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, destruction, or disclosure. These measures include:
In the event of a data breach that is likely to result in a risk to your rights and freedoms, pk56 will notify affected players without undue delay and will take all reasonable steps to mitigate the impact of the breach.
As a pk56 player, you hold the following rights in respect of your personal data. To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at [email protected] with the subject line "Data Rights Request". We will respond within 30 calendar days of receiving your request.
The pk56 platform is strictly intended for adults aged 21 years and above. We do not knowingly collect personal data from any individual under the age of 21. Age verification is a mandatory step in the pk56 registration and KYC process, and we apply additional checks where we have reason to suspect that a user may be underage.
If pk56 discovers or is notified that personal data has been collected from a user who is under 21 years of age, we will immediately suspend the associated account, void all balances and transactions associated with that account, delete the collected data as soon as is legally permissible, and take any further action required under applicable regulations.
The pk56 Platform integrates with a number of third-party service providers to deliver core functionality, including payment processing through JazzCash, EasyPaisa, HBL, UBL, and Meezan Bank, game content from licensed game providers, and identity verification services. Each of these third parties operates under their own privacy practices and data handling policies.
While pk56 carefully selects and contractually binds its service providers to appropriate data protection standards, we are not responsible for the independent data practices of third-party organisations. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party services you interact with directly, including your chosen payment provider.
The pk56 Platform does not contain links to external third-party websites for general browsing purposes, and we are not responsible for the privacy practices of any websites that are not operated by pk56.
pk56 reserves the right to update or amend this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in our data practices, legal obligations, or the Services we offer. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page will always reflect the date on which the current version was published.
Where changes are material — meaning they significantly affect your rights or how we use your personal data — we will notify registered players by email and will post a prominent notice on the Platform for a reasonable period prior to the changes taking effect. For non-material updates such as typographical corrections or clarifications, no prior notice will be provided.
Your continued use of the pk56 Platform after the effective date of any amendment constitutes your acceptance of the updated Privacy Policy. If you disagree with any changes, you should cease using the Platform and contact us to close your account.
