This policy explains what personal data k101 collects from visitors to this Site, why we collect it, how we use it and what rights you have over your information. We are committed to handling your data with care and transparency.
k101 ("we", "us", "our") operates the website accessible at https://k101.cam/ (the "Site") as an independent information resource for Pakistani users interested in online sports betting and casino gaming. We take the privacy and security of our visitors' personal data seriously and are committed to handling that data in a transparent, lawful and responsible manner.
This Privacy Policy ("Policy") describes the types of personal data k101 may collect when you visit the Site, the purposes for which that data is processed, the basis on which it is held, and the rights available to you in relation to your data. It applies to all users who access the Site from any location, including Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, Rawalpindi, Faisalabad, Multan, Peshawar and all other regions of Pakistan and beyond.
By using the Site, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Policy. If you disagree with any part of this Policy, please discontinue use of the Site. This Policy should be read alongside our Terms & Conditions, which govern the general rules for use of the Site.
Reminder: k101 is not a gambling operator and does not collect payment details, process deposits or withdrawals, or maintain gambling accounts. Data collected by this Site is limited to what is necessary for providing and improving an informational web resource.
The following definitions apply throughout this Policy:
k101 is the Data Controller responsible for Personal Data collected through the Site. For all privacy-related enquiries, requests or complaints, please contact us using the details provided in Section 16 (Contact Us) of this Policy.
Where k101 engages third-party service providers to process Personal Data on its behalf (for example, analytics platforms or hosting providers), those providers act as Data Processors under documented instructions from k101 and are contractually obligated to process data only as directed.
k101 collects the minimum data necessary to operate and improve the Site. The categories of Personal Data we may collect are as follows:
When you visit the Site, certain technical data is collected automatically by our servers and analytics systems:

If you contact k101 by email at the address listed in Section 16, we will collect any Personal Data you choose to include in your message — most commonly your name and email address. We do not operate a registration or account system, so no account credentials, passwords or payment details are collected through the Site.

k101 collects Personal Data through the following mechanisms:
k101 processes Personal Data only where a valid legal basis exists. The legal bases on which we rely are as follows:
k101 uses collected Personal Data for the following purposes only:
k101 does not use Personal Data for targeted advertising, profiling, automated decision-making or any commercial purpose beyond legitimate site operation. We do not build user profiles linked to Personal Data.
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. k101 uses cookies for the following categories of purpose:
These cookies are essential for the Site to function correctly. They enable core functionality such as page load optimisation and session continuity. Strictly necessary cookies cannot be disabled without breaking the Site. No consent is required for these cookies as they do not collect Personal Data beyond what is technically essential.
We use analytics cookies to understand how visitors interact with the Site — which pages are most visited, how long users spend on each section and which content is most useful. Analytics data is collected in aggregate and anonymised form where possible. Where an analytics provider may process identifiable data such as IP addresses, we configure those tools to anonymise data at the point of collection.
Preference cookies remember choices you have made on the Site, such as cookie consent status, so you are not repeatedly prompted on subsequent visits.
You can control and delete cookies through your browser settings. Most modern browsers allow you to refuse new cookies, delete existing cookies or be notified when a new cookie is set. Please note that disabling cookies may affect the functionality of this and other websites you visit. Browser cookie management instructions are typically found in the browser's "Help" or "Settings" menu.
k101 does not use cookies for advertising, retargeting, cross-site tracking or any purpose that would link your browsing activity on this Site to activity on other websites.
k101 does not sell, rent or trade your Personal Data to any third party. We share Personal Data only in the limited circumstances described below:
In all cases, we limit data shared to the minimum necessary for the purpose and require receiving parties to protect the data in accordance with standards consistent with this Policy.
k101 retains Personal Data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, to comply with legal obligations, or to resolve disputes and enforce agreements.
| Data Type | Retention Period | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Server log data (IP, requests) | Up to 90 days | Security monitoring and incident investigation |
| Analytics data (aggregated) | Up to 26 months | Long-term content performance analysis |
| Email correspondence | Up to 12 months after resolution | Audit trail and follow-up enquiry support |
| Cookie preference records | 12 months from consent date | Avoiding repeated consent prompts |
When Personal Data is no longer required for its original purpose and no legal obligation exists to retain it, k101 will securely delete or anonymise that data.
k101 implements appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect Personal Data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, destruction or disclosure. These measures include:
No method of electronic transmission or storage is completely secure. While k101 takes reasonable precautions, we cannot guarantee absolute security. In the event of a data breach that is likely to result in a risk to your rights and freedoms, we will take prompt steps in accordance with applicable law.
Subject to applicable law, you may have the following rights in relation to your Personal Data held by k101. To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at the address in Section 16. We will respond within a reasonable timeframe and in any event within 30 days of receiving a verifiable request.
You have the right to request confirmation of whether k101 holds Personal Data about you and, if so, to receive a copy of that data and information about how it is processed.
You have the right to request correction of inaccurate Personal Data we hold about you, or to have incomplete data completed where relevant.
You may request that we delete Personal Data we hold about you where it is no longer necessary for the purpose collected, consent has been withdrawn, or processing is unlawful.
You may request that k101 restricts the processing of your Personal Data in certain circumstances — for example, while the accuracy of data is being contested.
Where processing is based on legitimate interests, you have the right to object to that processing. We will cease processing unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds that override your interests.
Where processing is based on consent or contract and carried out by automated means, you may request that Personal Data be provided to you in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format.
The availability and scope of these rights may vary depending on applicable law in your jurisdiction. Pakistani users should note that domestic data protection legislation continues to evolve. k101 applies these rights to the extent feasible given our technical infrastructure.
The Site is intended exclusively for adults aged 18 years or over, or such higher minimum age as may be required by the relevant operator or licence jurisdiction. k101 does not knowingly collect Personal Data from children or minors.
If we become aware that we have inadvertently collected Personal Data from a person under the applicable minimum age, we will take prompt steps to delete that data from our systems. If you believe a minor has accessed the Site and provided data, please contact us immediately using the details in Section 16.
k101 operates as an English-language information resource targeting users in Pakistan and serves readers across Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, Rawalpindi, Faisalabad, Multan, Peshawar and other Pakistani cities. We acknowledge the following Pakistan-specific data context:
k101 reserves the right to update or modify this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in our data practices, legal obligations or Site functionality. When material changes are made, the "Last Reviewed" date at the top of this page will be updated.
Your continued use of the Site following any update constitutes your acknowledgement of the revised Policy. We encourage you to review this page periodically. k101 will not provide individual notification of Policy changes by email unless legally required to do so.

All data transmitted between your device and k101 is protected by SSL/TLS encryption. You can verify this by checking for the padlock icon in your browser's address bar at all times.

Access, rectification, erasure and objection rights are supported by k101. Submit a request to our support email and we will respond within 30 days for formal data requests.
