Data & Privacy

Privacy Policy – How Paddy Power Protects Your Data

Your privacy matters. This page explains exactly what personal information we collect from Pakistan players, why we collect it, how it is used, and the controls you have over your own data. No vague language – just straightforward answers.

Last Updated: January 2026

Six Things We Want You to Know Upfront

Before you read the full policy, here is a quick summary of how paddy power approaches your data and privacy as a Pakistan player.

Your Data Stays Secure

We use encryption and secure server infrastructure to protect the personal and financial information stored on your paddy power account. Security reviews happen on a regular basis to stay ahead of threats.

We Never Sell Your Data

Paddy power does not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third-party marketers. Any sharing of data is limited to what is necessary to operate the platform and process transactions securely.

Identity Verification Is Necessary

We collect CNIC and payment verification data as part of our Know Your Customer process. This protects both you and the platform from fraud and ensures withdrawals are paid to the right person.

You Control Your Preferences

You can manage your communication preferences, update your account details, and request data-related actions directly from your account settings or by contacting our support team.

Passwords Are Never Stored Plain

Account passwords are stored using one-way hashing. Our support team cannot see your password and will never ask for it. If you forget your password, use the reset option – there is no other way.

Clear Communication About Changes

If this Privacy Policy changes in a meaningful way, we will notify registered players by email or through an in-platform notification before the changes take effect. You will always have the chance to review updates.

Who this applies to: This Privacy Policy applies to all individuals who visit, register on, or use the paddy power platform at paddypower.bar, including players in Pakistan. By using the platform, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

1 Introduction

Paddy power is a sports betting and gaming platform serving players in Pakistan. We understand that when you create an account, deposit money in PKR, or place a bet on a cricket match, you are sharing personal information with us. We take that responsibility seriously.

This Privacy Policy is designed to give you a clear picture of what information we collect, why we need it, how it is used, and what your rights are in relation to that information. We have written it in plain language because we believe you deserve to understand exactly how your data is handled – not wade through pages of legal text to find the answer.

This policy covers all services provided by paddy power through the paddypower.bar website and any associated mobile application available for download. It applies to account registration, sports betting, casino and bingo activity, withdrawal requests, and any customer support interactions you have with our team.

2 Data We Collect

We collect personal information in two main ways: information you actively provide to us, and information that is gathered automatically as you use the platform.

Information You Provide Directly

  • Registration details: Full name, date of birth, email address, mobile number, and residential address as entered when creating your account.
  • Identity documents: CNIC (front and back), selfie or photo ID submitted during KYC verification.
  • Payment details: JazzCash account number, Easypaisa wallet details, bank IBAN, or other payment method information used for deposits and withdrawals.
  • Support communications: Messages, emails, or chat transcripts sent to our customer support team.
  • Preferences and settings: Communication preferences, responsible gaming settings, and account configuration choices you make.

Information Collected Automatically

  • Device and technical data: IP address, device type, operating system version, browser type, and screen resolution.
  • Usage data: Pages visited, time spent on each section, betting and gaming activity, login timestamps, and navigation patterns.
  • Transaction data: Deposit amounts, withdrawal requests, bet history, and casino game activity associated with your account.
  • Cookie data: Session identifiers, preference cookies, and analytical tracking data as described in the Cookies section below.

We only collect information that is relevant and necessary. We do not collect sensitive categories of personal data such as health information, religious beliefs, or political opinions.

3 Why We Collect It

Every piece of data we collect serves a specific purpose. The table below outlines the primary reasons we process your personal information:

Purpose Data Used Legal Basis
Account creation and management Name, email, mobile number, DOB Contract performance
Identity verification (KYC) CNIC, selfie, address Legal obligation / fraud prevention
Processing deposits and withdrawals Payment method details, transaction history Contract performance
Fraud detection and security IP address, device data, login history Legitimate interest
Customer support Communications, account activity Contract performance
Platform improvement and analytics Usage data, navigation patterns Legitimate interest
Promotional communications (if opted in) Email, mobile number, betting preferences Consent
Responsible gaming monitoring Deposit patterns, session activity Legal obligation / player protection

We do not process your personal data for purposes other than those listed above without notifying you first. If we plan to use your data in a new way, we will update this policy and inform you accordingly.

4 Sharing Your Data

Paddy power does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to third parties. However, there are specific, limited circumstances in which your data may be shared with external parties in order to operate the platform properly:

Payment Processors

When you make a deposit or request a withdrawal via JazzCash, Easypaisa, Raast, or bank transfer, the relevant transaction data is shared with that payment provider to complete the transaction. Each payment provider operates under their own privacy policy and is responsible for data they hold independently.

Identity Verification Partners

We may use third-party KYC verification services to authenticate the documents you submit. These services receive only the documents necessary for verification and are contractually bound to handle your data securely and only for the stated purpose.

Technology and Infrastructure Providers

Our platform runs on third-party server and cloud infrastructure. These providers may technically have access to data stored on their systems but are bound by strict data processing agreements and cannot use your data for their own purposes.

Game Software Providers

For live casino and certain slot games, your session data is processed by the game studio's servers. This is limited to what is needed to run the game and settle results accurately. No unnecessary personal data is passed to game providers.

Law enforcement: If required by a valid legal process or to prevent serious harm, we may disclose information to appropriate authorities. We will only do this where there is a clear legal obligation to do so.

5 Payments & KYC Data

Given that paddy power handles real money transactions in PKR, we are required to conduct identity verification before processing withdrawals. This is a standard practice across all legitimate online gaming and financial platforms and exists to protect players from fraud and unauthorised withdrawals.

The KYC process involves collecting and reviewing your CNIC, proof of payment method, and in some cases a recent photograph. This data is reviewed by our verification team and, where applicable, passed to a third-party verification service. Once verified, your account is flagged accordingly and routine re-verification is not required unless your details change or a high-value transaction triggers a review.

Payment Method Linking

All payment methods linked to your account must be registered in your own name. We cross-reference the name on your JazzCash, Easypaisa, or bank account with the name on your paddy power account and your CNIC. Mismatches will delay verification and may result in withdrawal holds until resolved.

We do not store full card numbers or complete wallet credentials on our servers. Payment data is tokenised or handled directly by the payment gateway during the transaction. What we store is limited to the identifier needed to recognise the method for future transactions.

KYC verification is a one-time process for most players. Once your account is fully verified, you can deposit and withdraw without repeating the process unless your account circumstances change significantly.

6 Cookies & Tracking

Paddy power uses cookies and similar technologies to make the platform work properly and to understand how players interact with it. Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They do not contain viruses or execute code.

Types of Cookies We Use

  • Essential cookies: Required for the platform to function. These manage your login session, remember your cart state, and keep you securely signed in. These cannot be disabled without breaking the platform.
  • Analytical cookies: Help us understand traffic patterns, which pages perform well, and where users encounter difficulties. This data is aggregated and not linked to individual identities.
  • Preference cookies: Remember settings you have chosen, such as language preference or responsible gaming limits you have set.
  • Marketing cookies (optional): Used only if you have opted in to receive promotional communications. These help us show relevant offers rather than generic ones.

You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings at any time. Note that disabling essential cookies will affect platform functionality. Disabling analytical or marketing cookies will not prevent you from using the platform normally.

7 How Long We Keep Your Data

We keep your personal data for as long as your account is active and for a reasonable period after account closure to meet our legal and operational obligations. Specific retention periods vary depending on the type of data:

  • Account registration data: Retained for the lifetime of your account plus a post-closure period required for record-keeping purposes.
  • Transaction and payment records: Kept for a minimum of five years following the transaction date for financial record compliance.
  • KYC documents: Retained for the duration of your account and for five years after closure, in line with standard anti-money laundering record-keeping practices.
  • Support communications: Retained for up to two years from the date of the interaction, unless the matter relates to an ongoing dispute.
  • Usage and analytics data: Retained in aggregated form for platform improvement purposes. Individual usage logs are deleted or anonymised after twelve months.

When data is no longer needed and the retention period has passed, it is securely deleted or anonymised so it can no longer be linked to you as an individual.

8 Your Privacy Rights

As a paddy power player, you have a number of rights relating to the personal data we hold about you. These are outlined below. To exercise any of these rights, contact our support team at the details provided in the Contact section.

Right to Access

You can request a copy of the personal data we hold about you. We will provide this within a reasonable timeframe after verifying your identity.

Right to Rectification

If any of the information we hold about you is inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to request that it be corrected.

Right to Erasure

You may request deletion of your personal data where there is no longer a legitimate reason for us to hold it. Note that legal retention obligations may limit full erasure in some cases.

Right to Object

You can object to processing of your data for marketing purposes at any time. You can also object to processing based on legitimate interests in certain circumstances.

Right to Portability

Where technically feasible, you can request your data in a structured, machine-readable format for transfer to another service.

Right to Restrict Processing

You can request that we limit how we use your data in specific situations, for example while a dispute about accuracy is being resolved.

9 Security Measures

Protecting your data is something we invest in continuously. The following measures are in place to keep your personal and financial information secure on the paddy power platform:

  • SSL/TLS encryption: All data transmitted between your browser or app and our servers is encrypted using industry-standard TLS protocols. Look for the padlock in your browser's address bar.
  • Password hashing: Account passwords are never stored in plain text. They are processed using one-way hashing algorithms so that even internal staff cannot read them.
  • Access controls: Access to player data within our organisation is restricted on a need-to-know basis. Staff with access to sensitive data undergo regular training and background checks.
  • Fraud monitoring: Automated systems monitor for unusual login patterns, suspicious transaction activity, and other indicators of account compromise in real time.
  • Regular security reviews: Our platform and infrastructure undergo periodic security assessments to identify and address vulnerabilities before they can be exploited.

Your responsibility: Keep your login credentials private and do not share your password with anyone. If you suspect unauthorised access to your account, contact support immediately to have your account secured.

10 Minors & Age Policy

The paddy power platform is strictly for adults aged 18 years and above. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under the age of 18. If during account review or verification we identify that a player is underage, the account will be immediately closed and any data collected will be securely deleted, subject to any legal record-keeping obligations.

If you are a parent or guardian and believe that a minor has registered an account using false age information, please contact our support team immediately. We will investigate and take appropriate action as quickly as possible.

We encourage parents and guardians to use parental control software to prevent minors from accessing online gaming platforms. Our responsible gaming tools are available to all adult players and can help establish limits that keep the experience within healthy boundaries. More information is available on our Responsible Gaming page.

11 Policy Changes

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in how we operate, the services we offer, or applicable legal requirements. When we make significant changes, we will notify registered players through an email to their registered address or via an in-platform notification before the new policy takes effect.

Minor or editorial changes that do not affect your rights may be made without direct notification, though the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page will always reflect the most recent revision. We encourage you to review this page periodically so you are always aware of how your data is being handled.

Continuing to use the paddy power platform after a policy update has been communicated constitutes your acceptance of the revised Privacy Policy. If you disagree with any changes, you should stop using the platform and contact support to discuss closing your account.
