Privacy & Data

Privacy Policy – Alona DT Pakistan Data Protection Commitments

This Privacy Policy explains what personal data Alona DT collects from Pakistani players, how it is used, how long it is kept, and what rights you have over your information. We have written this in plain English so it is actually useful to read, not just a legal box-ticking exercise.

Who We Are and Why This Policy Exists

Alona DT is an online sports betting and casino platform operated at alonadt.ws. We serve players based in Pakistan who use our platform to bet on cricket, football, and other sports, play online casino games, compete in Ludo tournaments, and engage with virtual sports — all in Pakistani Rupees (PKR).

When you use Alona DT, you share certain personal information with us. This Privacy Policy tells you exactly what that information is, why we need it, how we protect it, how long we hold it, and what you can ask us to do with it. We are the data controller for all personal data processed in connection with your Alona DT account.

This policy applies to all registered players, to visitors browsing the Alona DT website without an account, and to any person whose personal data we receive in connection with a payment transaction on the platform. It applies regardless of which device you use to access Alona DT — mobile browser, desktop, or tablet.

Plain language commitment: Alona DT has written this Privacy Policy to be genuinely readable by any Pakistani player, not just a legal compliance team. If anything is unclear, please reach out to us at support@alonadt.ws and we will explain it directly.

What Personal Data Alona DT Collects

Alona DT collects personal data in three ways: data you actively provide to us, data collected automatically as you use the platform, and data received from third parties such as payment providers.

2.1 Data You Provide Directly

Data Category Specific Data Points When Collected
Identity Data Full legal name, date of birth, CNIC number, passport/licence number Registration & KYC verification
Contact Data Pakistani mobile number, email address Registration
Financial Data Easypaisa / JazzCash / NayaPay / SadaPay account identifiers, IBFT bank details, card BIN numbers Deposits & withdrawals
KYC Documents CNIC images, passport photo page, proof of address documents Identity verification request
Communications Support chat transcripts, email correspondence, complaint records Support interactions

2.2 Data Collected Automatically

When you access the Alona DT platform, we automatically collect certain technical data that is necessary for the platform to function and for security purposes. This includes:

  • Your IP address and approximate geographic location derived from it
  • Device type, operating system version, and browser type
  • Pages visited within the Alona DT platform, time spent on each page, and navigation paths
  • Session start and end times, login timestamps, and betting activity logs
  • Cookies and similar tracking technologies (see Section 6)

2.3 Data From Payment Providers

When you deposit or withdraw via Easypaisa, JazzCash, NayaPay, SadaPay, or IBFT, the relevant payment provider confirms the transaction to Alona DT. This confirmation includes a transaction reference, the amount, and the account identifier. Alona DT does not receive your full mobile banking PIN or password from any provider — only confirmation that a transaction was authorised.

Alona DT does not collect sensitive personal data such as biometric data, health information, religious beliefs, or political views. The only sensitive data we hold is CNIC images provided for identity verification, which are stored under strict access controls.

How Alona DT Uses Your Personal Data

Alona DT uses the personal data it collects only for the purposes listed below. We do not use your data for any purpose that you would not reasonably expect given the nature of an online betting and gaming platform.

  • Account creation and management: Your name, contact details, and login credentials are needed to create and maintain your Alona DT account, process your bets, and provide access to all platform features.
  • Payment processing: Financial data is used to process deposits, settle winnings, and complete withdrawal requests to your nominated PKR payment method. Without this data, transactions cannot be completed.
  • Identity verification (KYC): KYC documents are used to verify that you are who you say you are, that you meet the minimum age requirement of 18, and that the payment methods you use belong to you. This protects both you and the platform from fraud and identity misuse.
  • Customer support: When you contact Alona DT support, your account data and communication history are used to investigate and resolve your query accurately and efficiently.
  • Security and fraud prevention: Technical data including IP addresses, device fingerprints, and login patterns are analysed to detect suspicious activity, prevent account takeover, and identify potential bonus abuse or money laundering.
  • Responsible gaming monitoring: Betting patterns, session lengths, deposit frequencies, and self-imposed limit data are monitored to identify signs of problem gambling and to trigger appropriate welfare interventions.
  • Legal and regulatory compliance: Transaction records, identity documents, and account activity data may need to be retained and, in some cases, disclosed to comply with applicable law or regulatory requirements.
  • Platform improvement: Aggregated, anonymised usage data helps Alona DT understand how players navigate the platform, which features are used most, and where technical issues occur — enabling us to improve the product for all Pakistani players.
  • Marketing communications: If you have opted in, your email address and mobile number may be used to send you information about promotions, bonuses, and new features on Alona DT. See Section 12 for opt-out instructions.

Legal Basis for Processing

Every time Alona DT processes your personal data, there is a legal basis for doing so. The main legal bases we rely on are:

  • Contractual necessity: Processing your name, contact details, financial data, and betting records is necessary to fulfil our contract with you — i.e., to provide the Alona DT platform services you have agreed to use.
  • Legal obligation: KYC verification, transaction record-keeping, and certain disclosures are required by applicable anti-money laundering, age verification, and financial regulation laws.
  • Legitimate interests: Security monitoring, fraud prevention, platform analytics, and responsible gaming monitoring are processed on the basis of Alona DT's legitimate interest in operating a secure, fair, and well-functioning platform — balanced against your right not to have your data used in ways that would surprise or harm you.
  • Consent: Marketing communications are sent only where you have given clear, informed consent. You can withdraw this consent at any time without affecting your ability to use the Alona DT platform.

Data Sharing — Who Sees Your Information

Alona DT does not sell your personal data to any third party. We do not share your data with advertisers, data brokers, or any commercial entity whose purpose is to use your personal information for their own marketing. Period.

We do, however, share limited personal data with the following categories of recipient where it is strictly necessary:

5.1 Payment Providers

When you deposit or withdraw, we share the minimum data necessary with your chosen payment provider (Easypaisa, JazzCash, NayaPay, SadaPay, IBFT, or Visa/Mastercard networks) to complete the PKR transaction. This typically consists of your account reference, the amount, and a transaction identifier.

5.2 Identity Verification Services

Alona DT uses reputable third-party identity verification providers to assist with KYC checks. These providers process your name, date of birth, and document images solely for the purpose of verifying your identity. They are bound by strict data processing agreements and are not permitted to use your data for any other purpose.

5.3 Technology Service Providers

Alona DT uses technology partners for hosting, platform infrastructure, security monitoring, and analytics. These providers act as data processors — they handle data on Alona DT's instructions and have no independent right to use your information. All technology partners are vetted for data security standards before engagement.

5.4 Regulatory and Law Enforcement Disclosure

Alona DT may be required to disclose personal data to regulatory bodies, law enforcement agencies, or courts when required to do so by applicable law. In such cases, Alona DT will disclose only what is legally required and, where permitted, will inform the affected player that a disclosure has been made.

No data sales — ever: Alona DT has never sold player data and has no intention of doing so. Our business model is built on player trust and competitive products — not monetising the personal information of our users.

Cookies & Tracking Technologies

Alona DT uses cookies and similar technologies on the platform. A cookie is a small text file stored on your device that helps the platform remember information about your visit and preferences.

6.1 Types of Cookies Used

  • Strictly Necessary Cookies: These are essential for the Alona DT platform to function. They maintain your login session, remember your betting slip contents, and enable security features. You cannot opt out of these without preventing the platform from working.
  • Functional Cookies: These remember your preferences — for example, your preferred odds format (decimal, fractional, or moneyline) or your last-visited section. They improve your experience but are not essential.
  • Analytics Cookies: These collect anonymised data about how players use the platform — which pages are most visited, where errors occur, and how long sessions last. This helps Alona DT improve the product. No individually identifiable data is included in analytics reports.

6.2 Managing Cookies

You can manage or delete cookies through your browser settings at any time. Deleting cookies will log you out of the Alona DT platform and reset your stored preferences. If you block all cookies, some features of the platform may not function correctly. Alona DT does not use advertising or tracking cookies that follow you across other websites.

Data Security — How We Protect Your Information

Alona DT takes the security of player data seriously and has implemented multiple layers of technical and organisational measures to protect personal information against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.

  • TLS/SSL Encryption: All data transmitted between your device and the Alona DT platform is encrypted using industry-standard TLS encryption. The padlock icon in your browser confirms this is active.
  • Encrypted Data Storage: Sensitive data including CNIC images, financial identifiers, and KYC documents are stored in encrypted form. Encryption keys are managed separately from the data they protect.
  • Access Controls: Access to personal data within Alona DT is restricted on a need-to-know basis. Only staff with a specific operational reason to access personal data are granted permission to do so, and all access is logged.
  • Two-Factor Authentication: Alona DT supports two-factor authentication (2FA) for player accounts. We strongly recommend enabling 2FA to protect your account from unauthorised access even if your password is compromised.
  • Regular Security Audits: The Alona DT platform undergoes regular security audits and penetration testing by independent security professionals. Identified vulnerabilities are remediated as a priority.
  • Data Breach Response: In the unlikely event of a data breach that affects your personal information in a material way, Alona DT will notify you promptly and take all appropriate remediation steps.

No online platform can guarantee absolute security. You also have a role to play — never share your Alona DT password or OTP codes with anyone, not even someone claiming to be Alona DT support. Our agents will never ask for your password.

Data Retention — How Long We Keep Your Data

Alona DT does not keep your personal data for longer than is necessary for the purpose for which it was collected. Retention periods vary by data type and are driven by operational need and legal obligation.

Data Type Retention Period Reason
Account & identity data Duration of account + 5 years after closure Legal / AML compliance requirement
Transaction records 7 years from transaction date Financial regulatory obligation
KYC documents Duration of account + 5 years after closure Identity verification compliance
Betting history Duration of account + 2 years after closure Dispute resolution, responsible gaming
Support communications 3 years from last interaction Complaint resolution record
Technical / security logs 12 months rolling Security monitoring & fraud detection
Marketing consent records Until consent is withdrawn + 1 year Proof of consent compliance

Once the applicable retention period expires, Alona DT securely deletes or anonymises the data so that it can no longer be linked to any individual.

Your Rights Over Your Personal Data

As a player on Alona DT, you have meaningful rights over your personal data. These rights are genuine and exercisable — not buried under obstacles. To exercise any of these rights, contact us at support@alonadt.ws with the subject line "Data Rights Request" and your registered mobile number or email address for verification.

Right of Access
Request a copy of all personal data Alona DT holds about you. We will provide this within 24 hours of verifying your identity.
Right to Rectification
If any data we hold about you is inaccurate or incomplete, you can ask us to correct it. We aim to action corrections within 48 hours.
Right to Erasure
Ask us to delete your data where we no longer have a legal basis to hold it. Note that legal and regulatory obligations may require us to retain certain records.
Right to Restriction
Ask us to limit processing of your data while a dispute about accuracy or legal basis is resolved, rather than deleting it outright.
Right to Portability
Request your data in a structured, machine-readable format so you can transfer it to another provider if you choose to do so.
Right to Object
Object to processing based on legitimate interests — for example, receiving marketing communications. We will stop immediately upon receipt of a valid objection.

We will acknowledge all data rights requests within 24 hours and resolve them within 30 days. If the request is complex or involves a large volume of data, we may extend this to 60 days with prior notification. We do not charge fees for handling reasonable data requests.

Children's Privacy

Alona DT does not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under the age of 18. The platform is intended exclusively for adults. All registration processes include date of birth verification, and KYC procedures include age verification through official identity documents.

If Alona DT discovers that an account has been registered by a person under 18, the account will be immediately suspended, all deposits will be returned, and any accumulated winnings will be forfeited in accordance with the Terms and Conditions. All data associated with the underage account will be deleted as soon as legally permissible.

If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has registered on Alona DT, please contact us immediately at support@alonadt.ws with the relevant account details and we will investigate and act on the same business day.

11

International Data Transfers

Alona DT's primary operations and player data are managed with Pakistan-based players in mind. However, some of the technology service providers and infrastructure partners we use may operate servers or process data in jurisdictions outside Pakistan. Where this occurs, Alona DT ensures that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your data to the same standard as it would receive in Pakistan.

Safeguards include contractual data processing agreements with standard clauses requiring the overseas processor to maintain data protection standards equivalent to those Alona DT applies. We do not transfer data to jurisdictions with inadequate data protection frameworks without these protections in place.

12

Marketing Communications & Opt-Out

Alona DT sends marketing communications — promotional offers, new feature announcements, bonus alerts, and match previews — only to players who have explicitly opted in at registration or in their account settings. We do not send unsolicited marketing to players who have not given consent.

You can opt out of marketing communications from Alona DT at any time through any of the following methods:

  • Clicking the unsubscribe link in any email communication from Alona DT
  • Replying STOP to any SMS message from Alona DT
  • Updating your notification preferences in the My Account section of the platform
  • Contacting support@alonadt.ws with the subject line "Marketing Opt-Out"

Opting out of marketing does not affect your ability to use the Alona DT platform in any way. You will continue to receive transactional communications — deposit confirmations, withdrawal notifications, and security alerts — which are necessary for the operation of your account and cannot be opted out of while your account is active.

13

Changes to This Privacy Policy

Alona DT reviews this Privacy Policy regularly and may update it to reflect changes in how we operate, changes in technology, changes in law, or improvements in how we explain our data practices. The date of the most recent update is displayed at the top of this page.

Where changes are material — meaning they meaningfully affect how your data is used or what rights you have — Alona DT will notify registered players via email at least 7 days before the revised policy takes effect. Non-material changes such as clarifications of existing practices, grammar corrections, or formatting updates may be made without prior notice.

We encourage you to check this page periodically. Your continued use of the Alona DT platform following the effective date of any revised Privacy Policy constitutes your acceptance of the changes. If you do not agree with the changes, you should contact us to discuss your options or close your account in accordance with the Terms and Conditions.

Why Alona DT Treats Your Privacy as a Priority

Six reasons our approach to data protection is different from the typical online platform

No Data Sales — Ever

Alona DT has never sold player data and never will. Pakistani players' personal information is not a commercial commodity on this platform. Our revenue comes from the games, not from your data.

SSL Encryption Always On

Every connection to the Alona DT platform is encrypted using TLS. Your PKR transactions, login credentials, and personal details travel across the internet in encrypted form that cannot be read by anyone intercepting the connection.

Strict Access Controls

Inside Alona DT, access to player data is restricted to staff with a specific operational need. All internal access is logged and audited. No one at Alona DT has general read access to the entire player database.

Plain Language Policy

This Privacy Policy is written for Pakistani players, not for regulators or lawyers. Every section is designed to be readable and useful. If anything is unclear, our support team will explain it directly without any formality.

Defined Retention Periods

Alona DT does not hold data indefinitely. Every category of personal data has a defined retention period — published openly in this policy — after which it is securely deleted or anonymised. We do not hoard data we no longer need.

Real, Exercisable Rights

The six data rights described in Section 9 are genuinely accessible. Contact support, state what you want, and we respond within 24 hours. No lengthy forms, no automated responses that do not help, no obstacles.

Privacy — Common Questions From Alona DT Players

The questions we hear most often about data and privacy on the platform

Alona DT does not sell your data to any third party. We share limited data with payment processors (to complete your PKR transactions), identity verification services (to verify your CNIC), and technology infrastructure providers (to run the platform). All of these parties are bound by data processing agreements and may only use your data for the specific purpose we have engaged them for. Your data is never shared with advertisers or data brokers.

Email support@alonadt.ws with the subject line "Data Access Request" from the email address registered to your Alona DT account. We will verify your identity and provide a full copy of your personal data within 24 hours. This includes account information, transaction history, betting records, KYC document references, and support communication records.

Yes, you can request account closure and deletion of your personal data by contacting support. However, certain data — particularly transaction records and KYC documents — must be retained for defined periods to comply with legal and regulatory obligations (see the Data Retention table in Section 8). Data that does not need to be retained for compliance reasons will be deleted or anonymised promptly upon your request.

Yes. CNIC images and other KYC documents submitted to Alona DT are stored in encrypted form with restricted access. Only staff involved in the KYC verification process have access to these documents, and all access is logged. CNIC images are never shared with any party other than the licensed identity verification service used to confirm your details, and that service is contractually prohibited from using the data for any other purpose.

You can opt out of marketing emails by clicking the unsubscribe link in any email we send. For SMS opt-out, reply STOP to any SMS from Alona DT. You can also update your notification preferences directly in the My Account section of the platform, or email support@alonadt.ws with subject "Marketing Opt-Out". Opting out takes effect immediately and has no impact on your ability to use the platform or your account balance.
