10Cookies & Tracking Technologies

i8game uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to operate the platform, maintain user sessions, and gather anonymised usage data. A cookie is a small text file stored on your device by the web server when you visit a website.

10.1 Types of Cookies Used

10.2 No Third-Party Advertising Cookies

i8game does not use third-party advertising cookies, cross-site tracking cookies or cookies linked to external advertising networks. We do not participate in programmatic advertising or retargeting programmes that would place advertising cookies on your device.

10.3 Managing Cookies

You may control and manage cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to view, delete and block cookies. Note that disabling essential cookies may impair core platform functionality, including account login. Analytics and preference cookies may be disabled without affecting core access.

11Data Security Measures

i8game implements appropriate technical and organisational security measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, destruction, disclosure or alteration. These measures include:

• SSL/TLS encryption for all data in transit between your device and i8game servers;
• Encrypted storage of sensitive personal data including identity documents and hashed credentials;
• Role-based access controls ensuring that personal data is accessible only to authorised personnel with a legitimate need to process it;
• Regular security assessments and vulnerability reviews of platform infrastructure;
• Secure deletion procedures for personal data that has reached the end of its retention period.

Despite our best efforts, no online platform can guarantee absolute security. In the event of a data breach that is likely to affect your rights or freedoms, i8game will notify affected users and, where required by law, the relevant supervisory authority, within the timeframes required by applicable data protection obligations.

12Children's Privacy

i8game is strictly an adults-only platform. Access is prohibited to any person under 18 years of age, or the higher minimum age required by the applicable operator or license jurisdiction. We do not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under the age of 18.

Satisfying the 18+ age requirement does not render participation in online gambling lawful in Pakistan. Pakistan's gambling laws may restrict or prohibit such activities. Users are solely responsible for understanding and complying with applicable local law.

13International Data Transfers

i8game may store and process personal data on servers located outside Pakistan. In such cases, we take steps to ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your personal data in accordance with the principles set out in this Policy.

Where personal data is transferred to third-party processors in other countries, we require those processors to maintain data protection standards consistent with this Policy through contractual data processing agreements. We do not transfer personal data to countries without adequate safeguards in place.

14Amendments to This Policy

i8game reserves the right to amend, update or replace this Privacy Policy at any time. When material changes are made, the updated Policy will be published on this page with a revised effective date. We may, where reasonably practicable, notify registered users of significant changes via email or a platform notification.

Your continued use of i8game following publication of an updated Privacy Policy constitutes your acceptance of the revised terms. If you do not agree to changes in this Policy, you should stop using the platform and may request deletion of your personal data as described in Section 9.

We encourage you to review this Policy periodically to remain informed about how i8game protects your personal data. The current version of this Policy was last reviewed in 2026.
