We do not use your personal data for automated profiling, behavioural advertising, credit scoring or any purpose beyond those listed above. We do not sell, rent or commercially exploit your personal data.

Where applicable data protection law requires a legal basis for processing, Betrup relies on the following grounds:
- Legitimate Interests: Processing technical usage data and operating site security measures on the basis of our legitimate interest in running a secure, functional and high-quality information platform.

- Legal Obligation: Where processing is necessary to comply with a legal obligation applicable to Betrup under Applicable Law.
You have the right to withdraw consent at any time where consent is the basis for processing. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out prior to withdrawal. To withdraw consent or raise an objection to processing, please contact us at the address in Section 16.

07Data Sharing & Disclosure
7.1 Service Providers

All such providers operate under data processing agreements that restrict their use of personal data to the specific services they provide to Betrup.
7.2 Legal Requirements
Betrup may disclose personal data where required to do so by law, court order, regulatory request or other legally binding obligation. We will, where practicable and lawfully permitted, notify affected users of any such disclosure.
7.3 What We Do Not Do

- Share identifiable personal data with entities outside the scope described in this Policy without your explicit prior consent.

Betrup retains personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, as outlined in this Policy, or as required by Applicable Law.
| Data Type | Retention Period |

| Server and access logs (IP, browser, session) | Up to 12 months from date of collection, then deleted or anonymised. |

09Data Security
Betrup implements a range of technical and organisational measures designed to protect your personal data against accidental loss, unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration or destruction. These measures include:
- SSL/TLS Encryption: All data transmitted between your browser and the Site is encrypted via industry-standard SSL/TLS protocols. Look for the padlock indicator in your browser address bar.
- Access Controls: Access to systems containing personal data is restricted to authorised personnel on a need-to-know basis.
- Infrastructure Security: Hosting infrastructure incorporates firewalls, intrusion detection systems and regular security patching.
- Data Minimisation: We collect only the minimum personal data necessary for each processing purpose and avoid storing sensitive data we do not need.
- Processor Agreements: Third-party service providers with access to personal data are contractually required to maintain appropriate security standards.
No system is entirely immune to security risks. In the event of a personal data breach that poses a high risk to your rights, we will notify affected users without undue delay in accordance with Applicable Law.
10User Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction and applicable data protection law, you may have some or all of the following rights in relation to your personal data held by Betrup. We will respond to verified requests within a reasonable timeframe and in accordance with our legal obligations.
Right of Access
You have the right to request a copy of the personal data we hold about you, along with information about how it is being processed.
Right to Rectification
If personal data we hold about you is inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to request that we correct or update it without undue delay.
Right to Erasure ("Right to Be Forgotten")
You may request that we delete your personal data where it is no longer necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, or where you withdraw consent and no other legal basis applies.
Right to Restrict Processing
In certain circumstances, you may request that we restrict the processing of your personal data while a dispute about its accuracy or the legitimacy of processing is resolved.
Right to Data Portability
Where processing is based on consent or contract and is carried out by automated means, you may request a structured, machine-readable copy of the data you have provided to us.
Right to Object
You have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data on the grounds of legitimate interests. We will assess your objection and cease processing unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds that override your interests.
Right to Withdraw Consent
Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of prior processing.
Exercise Your Rights: To submit a data rights request, please contact us at [email protected]. Please describe your request clearly and include sufficient information for us to verify your identity before processing the request.
11Children's Privacy
The Betrup Platform is strictly intended for adults aged 18 years and above — or the higher minimum age required by the operator's license jurisdiction. We do not knowingly collect, process or retain personal data from individuals under 18 years of age.
If we become aware that personal data has been collected from a minor, we will take immediate steps to delete that data from our systems. If you are a parent or guardian and believe that a minor in your care has provided personal data to Betrup, please contact us immediately at the address in Section 16.
Age Restriction: Adults 18+ only — or the higher minimum required by the operator/license jurisdiction. Local laws may restrict gambling. Meeting an age threshold alone does not make gambling lawful in Pakistan.
12Third-Party Content & Links
The Betrup Site may contain informational references to or descriptions of third-party gambling operators, payment services and other external entities. These references are for informational context only. Betrup does not control the websites, services or privacy practices of any third party referenced on this Site.
If you navigate from Betrup to a third-party website or gambling platform — whether through a URL you have manually typed or through any other means — your use of and any personal data you share with that third party is governed entirely by that party's own privacy policy and terms. Betrup accepts no responsibility for the data practices of third parties.
We strongly encourage you to review the privacy policy of any gambling platform or financial service before providing personal or payment information, including any platform associated with familiar payment channels such as Easypaisa, JazzCash, Raast, HBL, UBL, Meezan Bank or Bank Alfalah. The mention of these services on Betrup is for local context only and does not constitute an endorsement of their data practices.
13International Data Transfers
Betrup's technical infrastructure may involve service providers and hosting facilities located in multiple jurisdictions. As a result, personal data collected through the Site may be transferred to, stored and processed in countries outside the country in which you are located.
Where such transfers occur, Betrup takes appropriate steps to ensure that your personal data receives an adequate level of protection, including through the use of contractual safeguards with data processors. By using the Site, you acknowledge and consent to such transfers as described in this Policy.
14Specific Notice for Pakistani Users
Betrup's content is designed specifically for Pakistani users across major cities including Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, Rawalpindi, Faisalabad, Multan and Peshawar. We recognise that Pakistani users may have specific concerns regarding data privacy in the context of accessing gambling-related information.
Betrup does not share your data with any Pakistani government authority, regulator (including the PTA or State Bank of Pakistan), financial institution or law enforcement body except where specifically required to do so by a lawful order issued by a competent court or authority.
We do not claim that accessing this Site is endorsed, approved or permitted by any Pakistani authority. Users in Pakistan are responsible for understanding their obligations under the Prevention of Gambling Act, 1977 and any other applicable local legislation. This Policy does not constitute legal advice.
Pakistan Data Note: Your data is handled in accordance with this Policy regardless of your location in Pakistan. We apply the same data minimisation, security and retention standards to all users. No additional data is collected from Pakistani users beyond what is described in Section 3 above.
15Policy Changes
Betrup reserves the right to modify this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in our data processing practices, applicable law or operational requirements. Updated versions will be published on this page with a revised "Last Updated" date displayed prominently at the top.
Your continued use of the Site following the publication of any changes constitutes your acceptance of the revised Policy. If you disagree with the revised Policy, please cease using the Site and contact us to request deletion of any personal data we hold about you.
We will take reasonable steps to notify users of material changes that significantly affect their rights or how their data is processed, where it is practicable to do so.
