Data Protection & Privacy
This Privacy Policy explains how 8bte collects, processes, stores, and protects the personal data of users who register and interact with the 8bte platform. We take the privacy of every Pakistani player seriously — your data is handled with care, held securely, and never sold to third parties. Please read this document in full before registering your account.
Our Commitments
Six core principles that guide every data decision 8bte makes — from the moment you register to the moment you withdraw.
8bte does not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to any third party for marketing or commercial purposes. Your data belongs to you. We collect it only for the specific purposes described in this Policy and for no other reason.
All data transmitted between your device and the 8bte platform is protected using industry-standard TLS encryption. Sensitive personal information and payment data are encrypted at rest within 8bte's secure infrastructure. We do not store card numbers in unencrypted form.
Registered 8bte users have the right to access the personal data we hold about them, request corrections to inaccurate data, and request deletion of data where no legal retention obligation applies. Contact [email protected] to exercise any of these rights.
8bte collects only the personal data that is strictly necessary to operate the platform, comply with licensing obligations, and deliver the services you have requested. We do not collect data speculatively or build profiles beyond what is needed for our licensed operations.
Where 8bte shares data with third-party service providers — such as payment processors or game suppliers — those parties are contractually bound to process data solely for the defined purpose, and in accordance with data protection standards that match or exceed 8bte's own requirements.
When 8bte makes material changes to this Privacy Policy, registered users will be notified via the platform or by email before the changes take effect. You will always be able to review the current version of this Policy on the 8bte website at any time.
8bte is an internationally licensed online gaming platform accessible at 8bte.net, offering cricket betting, live dealer games, slots, Super Bingo, and related gaming services to eligible adult users. For the purposes of this Privacy Policy, 8bte is the data controller responsible for the personal information collected through the platform.
This Policy applies to all personal data collected from users who visit, register on, or interact with the 8bte platform, regardless of the device or method used to access it. It covers data collected directly from you, data collected automatically through your use of the platform, and data received from third-party sources such as payment processors and identity verification providers.
When you register an account, complete KYC verification, make a deposit, request a withdrawal, or contact 8bte support, you provide personal data directly to us. This includes:
When you access the 8bte platform, certain technical and behavioural data is collected automatically. This data is used for platform security, fraud prevention, and service improvement. It includes:
8bte may receive personal data about you from third-party sources where this is necessary to provide our services or comply with our licensing obligations. Third-party sources include:

8bte processes personal data under one or more of the following legal bases, depending on the specific processing activity in question:
8bte shares personal data with third parties only where necessary for the purposes described in this Policy, and only under contractual arrangements that require those parties to maintain appropriate data protection standards. Categories of third parties to whom data may be disclosed include:
8bte does not sell, rent, lease, or otherwise commercially transfer your personal data to any third party. Data shared with service providers is shared solely to enable those providers to deliver specific services to 8bte and its users — not for the providers' own commercial purposes.
The 8bte platform uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to ensure the platform functions correctly, to maintain your logged-in session, and to collect anonymised analytics data that helps us improve the platform experience for all users. The main categories of cookies used by 8bte are:
You can manage your cookie preferences through your browser settings. Most modern browsers allow you to block or delete cookies. Please be aware that disabling strictly necessary cookies will impair your ability to use the 8bte platform, as session management and account security depend on them. Disabling analytics or functional cookies will not prevent you from accessing 8bte's core gaming services.
8bte retains personal data only for as long as is necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, or as required by applicable law and our licensing obligations. The general retention periods 8bte applies are as follows:
Upon expiry of the applicable retention period, personal data is securely deleted or anonymised so that it can no longer be attributed to an identifiable individual.
As a data subject, you have a number of rights in relation to the personal data 8bte holds about you. These rights are set out below. To exercise any of these rights, please contact 8bte in writing at [email protected], clearly stating the right you wish to exercise and providing sufficient information to verify your identity.
Request a copy of the personal data 8bte holds about you, along with information about how it is processed and on what legal basis.
Request correction of any personal data we hold about you that is inaccurate, incomplete, or out of date.
Request deletion of your personal data where no legal retention obligation requires us to keep it. Applies where data is no longer necessary for its original purpose.
Request that 8bte restricts the processing of your data while a correction request or objection is being considered.
Request a machine-readable copy of data you have provided to 8bte directly, for transfer to another service provider, where technically feasible.
Object to processing carried out on the basis of legitimate interests, including profiling for responsible gaming purposes or direct marketing.
8bte will respond to all verified data rights requests within 30 days of receipt. Where a request is complex or where a large volume of requests has been received simultaneously, this period may be extended by a further 60 days, with notification provided to the requester within the initial 30-day window.
8bte implements a range of technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, destruction, or alteration. These measures include:
The 8bte platform is strictly for adults aged 21 and above. 8bte does not knowingly collect or process personal data relating to individuals under the age of 21. If 8bte discovers that personal data has been collected from an individual who is under 21 years of age, that data will be deleted immediately and the associated account closed.
If you are a parent or guardian and believe that a minor in your care has registered an account on 8bte or provided personal data to us, please contact [email protected] immediately. We will investigate and take appropriate action, including deletion of the data and permanent closure of the account, as quickly as possible.
8bte will only send you promotional emails, SMS notifications, or in-platform marketing messages where you have given your explicit consent to receive such communications at the time of registration or through your account preferences. Marketing messages from 8bte may include information about new games, upcoming promotions, PSL cricket betting offers, deposit bonuses, and platform updates.
You may withdraw your consent to receive marketing communications at any time, with no effect on your account status or access to 8bte's gaming services. To opt out, update your communication preferences in the account settings section of the platform, or send an opt-out request to [email protected]. Opt-out requests will be processed within 5 business days, after which you will no longer receive marketing communications from 8bte.
Please note that certain communications from 8bte are transactional in nature and are not subject to marketing consent preferences. These include account registration confirmations, deposit and withdrawal receipts, security alerts, KYC verification requests, and notifications about changes to these Terms or this Privacy Policy. These communications will continue regardless of your marketing opt-out status.
8bte reviews this Privacy Policy periodically and reserves the right to update it at any time. Where changes are material — meaning they significantly affect the way 8bte collects, uses, or shares personal data — registered users will be notified via the platform or by email to their registered address at least 14 days before the changes take effect.
The effective date shown at the top of this Policy reflects the date of the most recent revision. We encourage you to review this Policy periodically to stay informed about how 8bte protects your personal data. Continued use of the 8bte platform following notification of material changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated Policy.
If you have any questions, concerns, or complaints about how 8bte handles your personal data, or if you wish to exercise any of your data rights as described in Section 8, please contact the 8bte support team using the details below:
8bte will acknowledge all privacy-related correspondence within five business days and provide a substantive response within 30 days. If you are not satisfied with 8bte's response to a privacy complaint, you have the right to escalate the matter to the supervisory authority of the jurisdiction in which 8bte holds its international gaming licence.
