Welcome to the butpkr Privacy Policy. butpkr ("we", "us", "our", "the Platform") operates the online entertainment platform accessible at https://butpkr.cam.

butpkr collects Personal Data through a range of channels and methods:
- Account Registration: When you create a butpkr account, you provide identity, contact and security information directly through the registration form.
- KYC Verification: When you submit identity documents for age and identity verification, this data is collected directly from you and processed by our KYC service provider.
- Deposits and Transactions: Financial data is collected when you initiate deposits or withdrawals through the Platform's cashier. Payment processing is handled by third-party payment processors; butpkr receives transaction metadata but not full card credentials.
- Platform Use: Technical and usage data are collected automatically as you navigate the Platform, via server logs, analytics tools and session tracking technologies.
- Cookies and Similar Technologies: The Platform uses cookies, web beacons and similar tracking technologies to collect Technical Data and to support Platform functionality. See Section 8 for full details.
- Support Interactions: When you contact our support team — via email at [email protected] or through in-platform chat — the content of your communications is recorded and stored.
- Third-Party Sources: In limited circumstances, butpkr may receive data about you from third parties — for example, identity verification agencies, fraud prevention databases or publicly available registers — to fulfil our regulatory obligations.
butpkr processes your Personal Data on the following lawful grounds, consistent with internationally recognised data protection principles:
- Contractual Necessity: Processing is necessary to perform our contract with you — for example, to maintain your account, process deposits, settle bets and process withdrawals.
- Legal Obligation: Processing is required to comply with applicable legal and regulatory obligations — including KYC verification, anti-money laundering checks and responsible gambling assessments.
- Legitimate Interests: Processing is necessary for our legitimate interests, provided those interests are not overridden by your rights — for example, fraud detection, platform security, usage analytics and improving user experience.
- Consent: For marketing communications and non-essential cookies, butpkr relies on your freely given, specific, informed and unambiguous consent. You may withdraw consent at any time without detriment to your account status.
Withdrawal of Consent: Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time by updating your communication preferences in your account settings or by contacting
[email protected]. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out prior to withdrawal.
butpkr uses the Personal Data we collect for clearly defined purposes. We do not use your data for any purpose incompatible with those disclosed at the time of collection. The primary purposes for which we process your data are:
- Account Management: Creating and maintaining your account, verifying your identity and age, processing login requests and enabling access to Platform features.
- Transaction Processing: Facilitating deposits and withdrawals, maintaining transaction records and resolving payment disputes.
- Regulatory Compliance: Fulfilling KYC, anti-money laundering (AML) and counter-terrorism financing (CTF) obligations as required by our licensing and regulatory framework.
- Responsible Gambling: Monitoring betting patterns to identify indicators of problem gambling, enforcing self-exclusion and limit requests, and conducting affordability assessments where required.
- Platform Security and Fraud Prevention: Detecting and preventing fraudulent activity, account takeover attempts, multi-accounting, bonus abuse and other prohibited conduct as described in the Terms & Conditions.
- Customer Support: Responding to support queries, resolving disputes and maintaining records of communications for quality assurance and compliance purposes.
- Analytics and Product Improvement: Understanding how Users navigate the Platform, which features are most used, and how the user experience can be improved — using aggregated and anonymised data where possible.
- Marketing Communications: Sending promotional emails, bonus offers and product updates to Users who have opted in to receive such communications. You may opt out at any time.
- Legal Proceedings: Preserving and disclosing data as required by court order, regulatory investigation or other lawful legal process.

- Fraud Prevention and AML Databases: We may share Technical Data and transaction data with fraud prevention and AML service providers to screen for prohibited conduct and comply with financial crime prevention obligations.
- Analytics Providers: Aggregated and anonymised usage data may be shared with analytics platforms to help us understand platform performance. No individually identifiable data is transmitted to analytics providers without appropriate safeguards.
- Regulatory and Legal Authorities: We will disclose Personal Data to competent authorities — including gambling regulators, law enforcement agencies and courts — where we are legally compelled to do so, or where disclosure is necessary to protect the safety of Users or the integrity of the Platform.
- Business Transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition or transfer of substantially all of butpkr's business assets, User data may be transferred to the successor entity. Affected Users will be notified in advance and given the opportunity to close their accounts if they do not consent to the transfer.
Payment Provider Disclaimer: References to Easypaisa, JazzCash, Raast, HBL, UBL, Meezan Bank and Bank Alfalah on the Platform are contextual references familiar to Pakistani users only. butpkr does not share your data with these organisations in their capacity as payment providers unless you initiate a transaction through a supported payment method.
