01 Introduction
This Privacy Policy ("Policy") is published by j804, the independent English-language information platform accessible at https://j804.cam ("Platform", "we", "us", "our"). It describes how j804 collects, processes, stores, shares and protects personal data in connection with your use of the Platform, and explains the rights you hold in relation to that data.
j804 provides educational and informational content relating to online betting, sports wagering, casino gaming, bonus terms, payment method guidance and responsible gambling practices, with a primary focus on serving Pakistani users across cities including Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, Rawalpindi, Faisalabad, Multan and Peshawar. j804 is not a gambling operator and does not accept deposits, process withdrawals or hold any form of player funds.
By accessing and using the Platform, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Policy. If you do not agree with any part of this Policy, you should cease use of the Platform immediately. This Policy should be read alongside j804's Terms & Conditions, which govern your general use of the Platform.
02 Definitions
For the purposes of this Policy, the following terms carry the meanings set out below:
| Term | Meaning |
|---|---|
| "Personal Data" | Any information that identifies or can be used to identify a natural person, directly or indirectly — including name, email address, IP address, device identifiers and usage data. |
| "Processing" | Any operation performed on personal data, including collection, storage, retrieval, use, disclosure, erasure or destruction. |
| "Data Controller" | The entity that determines the purposes and means of processing personal data — in this case, j804. |
| "Data Subject" | The identified or identifiable natural person to whom personal data relates — in this context, you as a User of the Platform. |
| "Cookies" | Small text files placed on your device by a website to store preferences, session information and usage analytics. |
| "Third-Party Service" | Any external website, operator, payment provider or analytics service that is separate from and independent of j804. |
| "Applicable Law" | All relevant laws, regulations and statutory obligations governing data protection and privacy applicable to j804's operations and the User's jurisdiction. |
03 Data Controller
j804, operating the Platform at https://j804.cam, acts as the Data Controller in respect of personal data collected through the Platform. As Data Controller, j804 is responsible for determining the purposes for which personal data is processed and the means by which that processing is carried out.
j804 is an independent information platform. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or acting on behalf of the Government of Pakistan, the Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (P TA), the State Bank of Pakistan, any provincial authority, or any Pakistani financial institution or payment provider. References to payment methods such as Easypaisa, JazzCash, Raast, HBL, UBL, Meezan Bank and Bank Alfalah throughout the Platform are for contextual familiarity only and do not imply any data-sharing relationship or commercial affiliation with those providers.

04 Data We Collect
As an information-only platform, j804 does not operate user accounts, process financial transactions or collect sensitive personal data such as payment card numbers, bank account details or government-issued identification documents. The categories of data that j804 may collect are limited to the following:
4.1 — Data You Provide Voluntarily
If you contact j804 directly — for example, by sending an email to our support address — we may collect the name, email address and any other information you choose to include in your message. This data is used solely to respond to your enquiry and is not added to any marketing list without your explicit consent.
4.2 — Data Collected Automatically
When you access the Platform, certain technical data is collected automatically by our servers and analytics tools:
| Data Type | Description | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| IP Address | Numerical label assigned to your internet connection | Security, fraud prevention, geographic analytics |
| Device & Browser | Device type, operating system, browser version | Platform compatibility and performance optimisation |
| Usage Data | Pages visited, time on page, navigation paths, referral source | Editorial improvement and content relevance analysis |
| Session Data | Session start/end times, click patterns, scroll depth | User experience improvement |
| Cookie Data | Preference and analytics identifiers stored on your device | Session management and aggregate traffic analytics |
4.3 — Data We Do Not Collect
- Payment card numbers, bank account details or wallet addresses.
- Government-issued ID numbers, CNIC data or passport information.
- Gambling transaction histories or wagering records with any operator.
- Sensitive personal data as defined under applicable data protection law, including health data, biometric data or data relating to criminal convictions.
05 Legal Basis for Processing
j804 processes personal data only where a lawful basis for doing so exists. The primary legal bases on which j804 relies are as follows:
- Legitimate Interests: Processing of technical and usage data to maintain, secure and improve the Platform, where those interests are not overridden by the rights and interests of Data Subjects.
- Consent: Where you have provided a clear, informed and freely given consent — for example, when accepting non-essential cookies via our cookie notice. You may withdraw consent at any time.
- Contract Performance: Where processing is necessary to respond to a direct enquiry you have submitted to j804, constituting a pre-contractual or contractual interaction.
- Legal Obligation: Where processing is required to comply with a legal obligation applicable to j804 under Applicable Law.
06 How We Use Your Data
Personal data collected through the Platform is used exclusively for the following purposes. j804 does not use personal data for purposes that are incompatible with those stated at the time of collection.
- To deliver and maintain the Platform, ensuring it remains accessible, functional and secure for all users.
- To analyse aggregate usage patterns and improve editorial content, site structure and user experience — particularly in relation to content relevant to Pakistani users including cricket, PSL, T20 coverage and Pakistan-specific payment guides.
- To monitor for and respond to security threats, fraudulent access attempts or abusive use of the Platform.
- To respond to direct enquiries submitted to our support contact address.
- To fulfil legal obligations where required by Applicable Law.
- To generate anonymised, aggregate statistical reports on Platform performance — these reports contain no individually identifiable information.
07 Cookies & Tracking Technologies
j804 uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to support the operation of the Platform. Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They allow the Platform to remember certain preferences and to collect aggregate usage data that helps us understand how the site is used.
7.1 — Types of Cookies Used
| Cookie Type | Purpose | Required? |
|---|---|---|
| Essential | Session management, security, basic site functionality | Yes — cannot be disabled |
| Analytics | Aggregate traffic data, page performance, navigation analysis | No — consent required |
| Preference | Storing user display preferences and language settings | No — consent required |
7.2 — Managing Cookies
You may control and manage cookies through your browser settings at any time. Most browsers allow you to refuse new cookies, delete existing cookies and set preferences for specific websites. Please note that disabling essential cookies may affect the functionality of the Platform. Detailed instructions for managing cookies are available in the help documentation of your specific browser.
Withdrawing consent for analytics or preference cookies will not affect the lawfulness of any processing that took place prior to withdrawal.
08 Data Sharing & Disclosure
j804 does not share personal data with third parties except in the limited circumstances described in this section. In all cases, data is shared only to the minimum extent necessary and subject to appropriate safeguards.
8.1 — Technology Service Providers
j804 may engage trusted technology service providers — such as web hosting providers, content delivery networks and analytics platforms — who process data on our behalf as data processors. These providers are contractually bound to process data only on j804's documented instructions and to maintain appropriate technical and organisational security measures.
8.2 — Legal Disclosure
j804 may disclose personal data where required to do so by law, court order, regulatory authority or other legal process. In such cases, j804 will disclose only the minimum data required and will, where legally permissible, notify the affected Data Subject of the disclosure requirement.
8.3 — Business Transfers
In the event of a merger, acquisition, restructuring or sale of all or part of j804's assets, personal data held by j804 may be transferred to the relevant successor entity. Users will be notified of any such transfer and of any material change to this Policy that results from it.
8.4 — No Third-Party Operator Sharing
j804 does not share personal data with third-party gambling operators, payment providers or financial institutions. References to operators and payment methods such as Easypaisa, JazzCash, Raast, HBL, UBL, Meezan Bank and Bank Alfalah on the Platform are editorial and contextual in nature. They do not involve any data exchange between j804 and those entities.
09 International Data Transfers
The Platform may be accessed by users from Pakistan and other jurisdictions. Data collected through the Platform may be processed and stored on servers located outside Pakistan. Where personal data is transferred internationally, j804 takes reasonable steps to ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect the data in a manner consistent with the standards set out in this Policy.
j804 does not represent that all aspects of its data processing are governed by Pakistani law, nor does it claim compliance with any specific Pakistani data protection statute unless such legislation is in force and applicable at the relevant time. Users located in Pakistan are advised to review applicable data protection legislation and to contact j804 if they have concerns about cross-border data transfers.
10 Data Retention
j804 retains personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by Applicable Law. The following general retention principles apply:
- Technical logs and server data: retained for a rolling period sufficient for security monitoring, typically not exceeding 12 months unless a longer period is required by law or for the investigation of a specific security incident.
- Analytics data: retained in aggregated, anonymised form indefinitely for statistical purposes; individually identifiable analytics records are anonymised or deleted within a reasonable period.
- Enquiry correspondence: retained for a period sufficient to resolve the enquiry and any related follow-up, after which records are securely deleted.
- Cookie data: session cookies are deleted when the browser session ends; persistent cookies are deleted at the earlier of their programmed expiry date or upon user deletion via browser settings.
Upon expiry of the applicable retention period, personal data is securely deleted or irreversibly anonymised so that it can no longer be attributed to an identified or identifiable individual.
11 Your Rights
Subject to Applicable Law and the specific circumstances of the processing, you may hold the following rights in relation to your personal data. j804 is committed to facilitating the exercise of these rights in a timely and transparent manner.
Right of Access
Request a copy of the personal data j804 holds about you and information about how it is processed.
Right to Rectification
Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal data held about you.
Right to Erasure
Request deletion of your personal data where it is no longer necessary for its original purpose or where processing was based on consent since withdrawn.
Right to Restriction
Request that processing of your data be restricted in certain circumstances — for example, while a dispute about accuracy is resolved.
Right to Object
Object to processing based on legitimate interests, including where data is used for analytics or profiling purposes.
Right to Portability
Receive a copy of data you have provided in a structured, machine-readable format where processing is based on consent or contract.
To exercise any of the above rights, please contact j804 at the email address provided in Section 16 of this Policy. j804 will respond to verified requests within a reasonable timeframe. j804 may request proof of identity before processing a rights request in order to protect against unauthorised data access.
12 Children's Privacy
The j804 Platform is strictly intended for adults aged 18 years or older, or the higher minimum age required by the operator's licensing jurisdiction, whichever is greater. j804 does not knowingly collect, process or retain personal data from individuals under the age of 18.
If j804 becomes aware that personal data has been collected from a person under the minimum age threshold, that data will be deleted promptly without further processing. If you believe that a minor has accessed the Platform or submitted personal data to j804, please contact us immediately at the address provided in Section 16.
13 Security Measures
j804 implements technical and organisational security measures designed to protect personal data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, destruction, alteration or disclosure. These measures include, but are not limited to:
- Encryption of data in transit using Transport Layer Security (TLS/SSL) protocols.
- Access controls limiting data access to authorised personnel on a need-to-know basis.
- Regular review and testing of security configurations and access logs.
- Procedures for detecting, reporting and responding to personal data breaches within appropriate timeframes.
Whilst j804 takes reasonable steps to protect personal data, no internet-based transmission or electronic storage system can be guaranteed as completely secure. Users should take their own precautions — such as using strong passwords, keeping device software up to date and being vigilant about phishing attempts — when accessing any online platform. j804 will never request sensitive personal information such as passwords, payment card numbers or CNIC details via email.
14 Third-Party Links & Services
The j804 Platform may contain references to third-party gambling operators, payment services and other external platforms in its editorial content. Where a user independently navigates to a third-party site, that site operates under its own privacy policy and data practices, which are entirely separate from and independent of this Policy.
j804 has no control over the data collection practices, security standards, content or privacy commitments of any third-party site. The inclusion of a reference to a third-party operator or payment method in j804's editorial content does not constitute an endorsement of that party's privacy or data practices. Users are strongly encouraged to review the privacy policy of any third-party platform before submitting personal data to it.
15 Policy Amendments
j804 reserves the right to amend this Privacy Policy at any time. Material changes will be reflected by an updated "Last Updated" date at the top of this page. Where changes are significant, j804 may take additional steps to bring them to users' attention.
Continued use of the Platform following the publication of an amended Policy constitutes your acceptance of the revised terms. If you do not agree with any amendment, you should cease use of the Platform and may submit a data erasure request in accordance with Section 11 of this Policy.
Users are encouraged to review this Policy periodically. The current version of the Policy is always accessible at https://j804.cam/privacy-policy.
