Your privacy matters to us. This document explains exactly what personal information sh88 collects, why we collect it, how it is used, and the rights you hold over your own data as a Pakistani player on our platform.
Six core promises sh88 makes to every Pakistani player regarding the handling of their personal information
All data transmitted between your device and sh88 is protected by TLS 1.3 with 256-bit encryption. Whether you are depositing via JazzCash from Lahore or checking your balance from Karachi, your session data travels through an encrypted channel at all times.
sh88 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to third-party marketing companies under any circumstances. The information you provide during registration and KYC stays within the sh88 ecosystem and its regulated service partners only.
sh88 collects only the data that is genuinely necessary for account operation, payment processing, KYC compliance, and responsible gaming obligations. We do not collect data speculatively or for purposes unrelated to your sh88 account and gameplay.
This Privacy Policy clearly describes every category of data we collect, the legal basis for processing it, and who it may be shared with. There are no hidden data practices at sh88 — what you read here is the complete picture of how your information is handled.
sh88 retains your personal data only for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected, or as required by our international gaming licence obligations. Once the retention period expires, data is securely deleted or anonymised.
You have the right to access, correct, port, and request deletion of your personal data held by sh88. Requests are handled within 30 days of receipt. See Section 8 of this policy for the full list of data rights available to you as an sh88 player.
Summary: sh88 is committed to handling your personal information with care, transparency, and respect. This Privacy Policy explains your rights and our obligations. If you have questions at any point, contact us at [email protected].
This Privacy Policy ("Policy") describes how sh88 ("the Platform", "we", "us", "our") collects, processes, stores, and protects the personal data of individuals ("Player", "you", "your") who access or use the sh88.games website, any associated mobile interfaces, or any services provided by sh88.
sh88 operates under international gaming licensing standards and is committed to data protection practices consistent with globally recognised privacy frameworks. This Policy applies to all sh88 players regardless of their location within Pakistan, whether you are accessing the platform from Islamabad, Lahore, Karachi, Faisalabad, or elsewhere.

sh88 collects personal data through several channels: directly from you during registration and account management, automatically through your use of the platform, and from regulated third-party service providers involved in payment processing and identity verification.
Important: sh88 does not store full bank card numbers or CVV codes on its servers. Payment credentials are tokenised and handled exclusively by our PCI-DSS compliant payment processing partners.

To create, maintain, and administer your sh88 account, verify your identity, process logins, and ensure account security across all sessions on the platform.
To process PKR deposits via JazzCash, EasyPaisa, HBL, UBL, Meezan Bank, SadaPay, and USDT TRC20, and to facilitate withdrawal requests back to your verified payment method.
To verify your age (21+ requirement), confirm your identity against CNIC records, detect and prevent fraud, money laundering, and multi-accounting activity, and to comply with our international gaming licence obligations.
To provide sports betting (including PSL and international cricket markets), live casino games, certified slot titles, and any other entertainment services offered through the sh88 platform.
To monitor account activity for signs of problem gambling behaviour, enforce player-set deposit and session limits, manage self-exclusion requests, and comply with responsible gaming standards required under our operating licence.
To respond to your enquiries, resolve disputes, investigate complaints, and improve the quality of the sh88 support service.
To analyse anonymised or aggregated usage data to improve the sh88 user experience, optimise game loading performance, and identify technical issues across different device types used by Pakistani players.
To send promotional offers, bonus announcements, and platform news to players who have explicitly opted in to receive such communications. You may withdraw marketing consent at any time through your sh88 account settings or by emailing [email protected].
sh88 processes your personal data on the following legal bases, depending on the specific processing activity involved:
sh88 does not sell your personal data. We share data with third parties only where strictly necessary and only with regulated, contractually bound service providers. The categories of third parties who may receive your data are:
Data Processing Agreements: All third-party service providers who receive sh88 player data are required to enter into formal data processing agreements with sh88 that restrict their use of the data to the specific purpose for which it was shared.
sh88 uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on the sh88.games platform to ensure it functions correctly, to maintain your login session, and to collect anonymised analytics data that helps us improve the platform experience for Pakistani players.
These cookies are strictly necessary for the sh88 platform to function. They maintain your login session, store your currency preference (PKR), and preserve your responsible gaming settings across page loads. Essential cookies cannot be disabled without breaking core platform functionality.
sh88 uses anonymised analytics tools to understand how players navigate the platform, which game categories are most popular, and where technical friction points occur. Analytics data is aggregated and does not identify individual players.
These cookies remember your display preferences, such as language selection and notification settings, so you do not have to reconfigure them on each visit to sh88.
You can manage or disable non-essential cookies through your browser settings at any time. Please note that disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of the sh88 platform, including the persistence of your session login state.
sh88 retains your personal data for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes outlined in this Policy, or as required by our gaming licence and applicable legal obligations. The following retention guidelines apply:
Upon expiry of the applicable retention period, your personal data will be securely deleted or irreversibly anonymised so that it can no longer be associated with your identity.
As an sh88 player, you hold meaningful rights over your personal data. sh88 is committed to facilitating the exercise of these rights in a timely and straightforward manner. The rights available to you are as follows:
Request a copy of all personal data sh88 holds about you, along with information about how it is being used and who it has been shared with.
Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal data held on your sh88 account, such as an incorrect address or misspelled name.
Request deletion of your personal data where it is no longer necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, subject to our legal retention obligations.
Request that sh88 limits the processing of your data in specific circumstances, such as while the accuracy of the data is being contested.
Request a structured, machine-readable copy of the personal data you have provided to sh88, where processing is based on consent or contract.
Object to processing carried out on the basis of legitimate interests, including profiling for responsible gaming monitoring or fraud prevention purposes.
To exercise any of the above rights, submit a written request to [email protected] with the subject line "Data Rights Request". sh88 will acknowledge your request within 5 business days and provide a substantive response within 30 calendar days. In complex cases, this period may be extended by a further 30 days with prior notification.
Identity Verification: For security reasons, sh88 will verify your identity before processing any data rights request. You may be asked to confirm details associated with your sh88 account, such as your registered email address or CNIC number.
sh88 implements a layered security architecture to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, destruction, or disclosure. Our security measures include:
While sh88 takes all reasonable steps to protect your data, no system is completely immune to risk. You are encouraged to use a strong, unique password for your sh88 account and to enable two-factor authentication from your account security settings.
sh88 is a platform strictly intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal data from any individual under the age of 21. Age verification is a mandatory step in the sh88 KYC process, and no real-money deposit or gameplay is permitted until age verification has been successfully completed.
Underage Access: If sh88 discovers that personal data has been collected from a player who is under the age of 21, that account will be closed immediately, the data will be deleted in accordance with our retention policy, and any balance held in the account will be reviewed by our compliance team before any decision on its disposition is made.
If you are a parent or guardian and believe that a minor in your care has registered an sh88 account, please contact us immediately at [email protected] so we can investigate and take appropriate action.
sh88 operates as an internationally licensed gaming platform. As a result, your personal data may be transferred to and processed in countries outside Pakistan where sh88's infrastructure, KYC providers, payment processors, or gaming software partners are located.
Where such transfers occur, sh88 ensures that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your data to a standard equivalent to that described in this Policy. These safeguards may include contractual clauses with the receiving party that obligate them to handle your data in accordance with applicable privacy standards, or reliance on the recipient organisation's recognised certification under an internationally accepted data protection framework.
By using the sh88 platform, you acknowledge and consent to the transfer of your personal data to other jurisdictions as described in this section, where such transfers are necessary for the provision of sh88 services.
sh88 reserves the right to update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our data processing practices, changes in applicable law, or changes required by our licensing authority. The version number and "Last Updated" date at the top of this Policy will be revised whenever a change is made.
Where changes are material — meaning they significantly affect your rights or how sh88 processes your personal data — sh88 will notify registered players via email at least seven (7) days before the updated Policy takes effect. For minor or clarificatory changes, the updated Policy will be published on this page and will take effect upon publication.
We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically to stay informed about how sh88 protects your information. Your continued use of the platform after the effective date of any update constitutes your acceptance of the revised Policy.
