dz999 retains Personal Data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, including legal, accounting and regulatory reporting requirements. The following general retention principles apply:

Following the expiry of applicable retention periods, Personal Data will be securely deleted or anonymised in accordance with our internal data-destruction procedures.

dz999 implements appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect Personal Data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, alteration, disclosure or destruction. Our security measures include, but are not limited to:

• SSL/TLS encryption for all data transmitted between your device and our servers;
• Secure HTTPS protocol enforced across all Platform pages;
• Access controls limiting internal data access to authorised personnel on a need-to-know basis;
• Regular security assessments and vulnerability reviews;
• Encrypted storage of passwords using industry-standard hashing;
• Incident response procedures for detecting and managing data security incidents.

While dz999 takes all reasonable steps to protect your Personal Data, no method of electronic transmission or storage is completely secure. Users should take appropriate precautions to protect their own account credentials and promptly notify us of any suspected unauthorised access.

dz999 uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to operate and improve the Platform. The following categories of cookies may be used:

Essential cookies cannot be disabled as they are required for the Platform to function. Non-essential cookies (Functional and Analytics) may be disabled through your browser settings. Note that disabling certain cookies may affect Platform functionality.

dz999 does not use invasive cross-site tracking, third-party advertising cookies, or sell cookie-derived behavioural data to advertisers.

Subject to applicable law and regulatory obligations, you have the following rights in relation to your Personal Data held by dz999. Requests should be submitted in writing to our support team using the contact details in Section 14.

We will respond to verified data rights requests within 30 calendar days of receipt. We may request additional identity verification before processing a request to prevent unauthorised data access. Certain rights may be limited where legal or regulatory obligations require continued processing or retention.

The Platform is intended solely for adults aged 18 years or older, or the higher minimum age required by the applicable Operator or license jurisdiction. dz999 does not knowingly collect Personal Data from individuals under the age of 18.

Where there is reason to believe that a User is under the applicable minimum age, dz999 will immediately suspend the relevant Account, withhold access to any funds or balances pending investigation, and delete any Personal Data collected from that User where not legally required to retain it.

Parents and guardians are responsible for supervising access to online platforms. If you believe that a minor has submitted Personal Data to dz999 without appropriate consent, please contact us immediately using the details in Section 14 so we can take appropriate action.

dz999 may process or transfer Personal Data to servers and service providers located outside Pakistan, including in jurisdictions where data-protection laws may differ from those applicable locally. Where such transfers occur, dz999 takes appropriate safeguards to ensure that Personal Data continues to receive a comparable level of protection, including:

• Entering into contractual data-processing agreements with all third-party processors that impose equivalent data-protection obligations;
• Using service providers that adhere to internationally recognised security and privacy standards;
• Limiting data transfers to what is strictly necessary for the purposes described in this Policy.

By using the Platform and submitting Personal Data, you consent to the transfer of your information to jurisdictions outside Pakistan where our service providers may operate, subject to the protections described above.

dz999 reserves the right to update or amend this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in our data-processing practices, legal obligations or Platform services. Where material changes are made, the "Last Updated" date displayed at the top of this page will be revised accordingly.

We may notify registered Users of significant changes via the email address associated with their Account. However, it remains your responsibility to review this Policy periodically. Continued use of the Platform following publication of an updated Policy constitutes your acceptance of the revised terms. If you disagree with any amendments, you must cease use of the Platform and may request deletion of your data in accordance with Section 10.
