6. Data Sharing and Disclosure

6.1 Service Providers

z999k may share personal data with carefully selected third-party service providers who assist in the operation of the Platform, including payment processors, identity verification providers, game technology suppliers, and cloud infrastructure providers.

6.3 No Sale of Data

z999k does not sell, rent, or trade personal data to third-party advertisers, marketing agencies, or data brokers. Your personal information is not a commercial product at z999k.

6.4 Business Transfers

In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or substantially all of z999k's assets, personal data held by z999k may be transferred to the acquiring entity as part of that transaction.

7. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

7.1 What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. z999k uses cookies and similar technologies to operate the Platform, remember your preferences, maintain your login session, and collect usage analytics.

7.2 Types of Cookies Used

• Strictly necessary cookies: Essential for the Platform to function. These include session authentication cookies that keep you logged in to your z999k account. These cannot be disabled.
• Functional cookies: Remember your preferences such as language settings and game configurations to improve your experience on z999k.
• Analytics cookies: Collect aggregate, anonymised information about how the z999k Platform is used, to help improve performance and content.

7.3 Managing Cookies

You can manage or disable non-essential cookies through your browser settings. Please note that disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of the z999k Platform, including your ability to remain logged in to your account.

8. Data Retention

z999k retains personal data for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, and in compliance with applicable legal retention obligations. Specifically:

• Account registration data and KYC records are retained for the duration of the account and for a minimum period following account closure as required by applicable anti-money-laundering and regulatory obligations.
• Transaction records are retained for a minimum period as required by applicable financial record-keeping obligations.
• Customer support communications are retained for a reasonable period after resolution of the relevant query.
• Usage and analytics data is typically retained in aggregate or anonymised form and does not identify individual players after the defined retention period.

Following the expiry of the applicable retention period, personal data will be securely deleted or anonymised. Where data cannot be immediately deleted due to technical constraints, it will be securely isolated and deleted as soon as reasonably practicable.

9. Data Security

z999k implements industry-standard technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, loss, alteration, or disclosure. These measures include:

• 256-bit SSL/TLS encryption on all data in transit between your device and the z999k Platform
• Encrypted storage of passwords using one-way hashing algorithms
• Two-factor OTP authentication available for account login
• Access controls restricting personal data access to authorised z999k personnel on a need-to-know basis
• Regular security assessments of Platform infrastructure

While z999k takes all reasonable steps to protect your personal data, no internet transmission or electronic storage system is completely secure. You should take steps to protect your own account by using a strong, unique password and enabling OTP login where available. Never share your z999k login credentials with any third party.

If you believe that a minor has registered on z999k, please contact us immediately using the details in Section 14.

12. Third-Party Links

The z999k Platform may contain references to payment providers and third-party services whose own privacy policies apply to any personal data you share directly with those providers. z999k is not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party service providers. Where you interact with a third-party payment service (such as JazzCash, Easypaisa, or a bank's online portal) you should review that provider's own privacy policy.

z999k reserves the right to update or amend this Privacy Policy at any time. Where changes are material, z999k will notify registered players via email or on-Platform notification.
