Privacy Policy —
How 2gbat Protects Your Data

2gbat ("we", "us", "our") operates the website at https://2gbat.cam (the "Platform") — an English-language online betting and gaming information service primarily serving adult users in Pakistan. This Privacy Policy ("Policy") describes how we collect, use, store, protect and share personal data in connection with your use of the Platform.

We are committed to protecting the privacy of our users and to complying with applicable data protection principles. This Policy has been written in plain English to ensure that users across Pakistan — whether accessing the Platform from Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, Rawalpindi, Faisalabad, Multan or Peshawar — can fully understand how their data is handled.

By accessing or using the 2gbat Platform, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy and consent to the collection and use of your data as described herein. If you do not agree to this Policy, please discontinue use of the Platform immediately. This Policy should be read alongside our Terms & Conditions.

For the purposes of this Privacy Policy, the following definitions apply:

• "Personal Data" means any information that identifies or can be used to identify a natural person, directly or indirectly.
• "Processing" means any operation performed on Personal Data, including collection, recording, storage, use, disclosure or deletion.
• "Data Controller" means 2gbat, the entity that determines the purposes and means of processing Personal Data.
• "Data Subject" means any identified or identifiable natural person whose Personal Data is processed — in this context, Platform users.
• "Cookies" means small text files stored on a user's device by a web browser, used to retain information about user preferences and sessions.
• "Third Party" means any natural or legal person, public authority, agency or body other than the Data Subject and 2gbat.
• "Platform" means the 2gbat website accessible at https://2gbat.cam and all associated pages, subdomains and features.
• "Consent" means freely given, specific, informed and unambiguous indication of the Data Subject's agreement to the processing of their Personal Data.

2gbat collects two broad categories of data: data you provide to us voluntarily, and data collected automatically when you use the Platform.

Data you may provide voluntarily:

• Name and email address (when submitting a support or general enquiry)
• Communication preferences
• Feedback or correspondence sent to our support team

Data collected automatically:

Personal Data is collected through the following mechanisms:

• Direct submission: When you contact our support team via email or live chat with a question or enquiry.
• Web server logs: Standard server logs automatically record technical connection data including IP addresses, request timestamps and HTTP status codes.
• Analytics tools: We may use privacy-respecting analytics software to understand aggregate usage patterns on the Platform — for example, which guides are most read by users in Pakistan.
• Cookies and similar technologies: As described in Section 9, cookies are used to manage user sessions and collect aggregate analytics data.

We do not purchase data from third-party data brokers. We do not collect data through social media tracking pixels beyond what is described in Section 9. We do not knowingly collect data from individuals under 18 years of age.

2gbat processes Personal Data for the following specific purposes:

• Platform operation: To deliver the Platform's content and features reliably and securely to users across Pakistan and internationally.
• Customer support: To respond to enquiries, resolve technical issues and provide assistance through live chat and email support channels. Support is available in English, with Urdu-language agents available on request.
• Security and fraud prevention: To detect, investigate and prevent unauthorised access, abuse, scraping or other harmful activity directed at the Platform.
• Analytics and improvement: To analyse aggregate usage patterns and improve the quality, accuracy and relevance of our content — particularly our cricket betting guides, PSL and ICC tournament information, responsible gambling resources and bonus term explanations.
• Legal compliance: To comply with applicable legal obligations and respond to lawful requests from competent authorities.
• Communications: To respond to messages or enquiries you send us directly.

We do not use Personal Data for automated decision-making or profiling that produces legal or similarly significant effects on users.

Where applicable data protection frameworks require a legal basis for processing Personal Data, 2gbat relies on the following grounds:

• Consent: Where you have given explicit consent — for example, by agreeing to cookie placement or by submitting a voluntary enquiry form.
• Legitimate interests: Where processing is necessary for the legitimate interests of 2gbat, such as platform security, fraud prevention and analytics — provided those interests are not overridden by the rights and interests of the Data Subject.
• Legal obligation: Where processing is necessary to comply with a legal obligation applicable to 2gbat.
• Contractual necessity: Where processing is necessary to provide services or respond to support requests initiated by the User.

2gbat does not sell, rent or trade your Personal Data to any third party. We may share data in the following limited circumstances:

• Service providers: We may share data with carefully selected third-party service providers who assist us in operating the Platform — such as hosting infrastructure providers, analytics services and customer support tooling. These providers are contractually bound to process data only as instructed by 2gbat and in accordance with applicable data protection standards.
• Legal obligations: We may disclose Personal Data where required to do so by applicable law, court order or request from a competent public authority, including authorities in Pakistan or other relevant jurisdictions.
• Business transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition or sale of all or a material portion of 2gbat's assets, Personal Data may be transferred to the successor entity. We would notify users of any such transfer in advance.
• Protection of rights: We may disclose data where we believe disclosure is necessary or appropriate to protect the rights, property or safety of 2gbat, our users or the public.

We do not share Personal Data with third-party advertisers or ad networks without your explicit consent. Payment provider names referenced on 2gbat (Easypaisa, JazzCash, Raast, HBL, UBL, Meezan Bank, Bank Alfalah) are contextual mentions only — we share no user data with these providers and have no data-sharing arrangement with them.

2gbat retains Personal Data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, as described in this Policy, or as required by applicable legal obligations.

• Support correspondence: Retained for up to 24 months from the date of last interaction, unless a longer period is required for dispute resolution or legal compliance.
• Server logs and technical data: Typically retained for 90 days for security and diagnostic purposes, after which they are purged or anonymised.
• Analytics data: Stored in anonymised or aggregated form and retained indefinitely for platform improvement purposes, as no individual can be identified from this data.
• Cookie data: Subject to the cookie lifespan described in Section 9. Session cookies expire when the browser session ends. Persistent cookies are subject to the expiry periods listed in our cookie table.

When Personal Data is no longer required, it is securely deleted or anonymised so that it can no longer be used to identify you.

2gbat uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to operate and improve the Platform. The following categories of cookies may be placed on your device when you access 2gbat:

You can control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to refuse new cookies, delete existing cookies and set notifications when new cookies are placed. Please note that disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of the Platform. Instructions for managing cookies are available in your browser's help documentation.

2gbat implements appropriate technical and organisational security measures to protect Personal Data against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure or destruction. These measures include, but are not limited to:

• SSL/TLS encryption for all data transmitted between your browser and our servers
• Access controls limiting data access to authorised personnel only
• Regular security reviews of our infrastructure and code
• Secure, access-controlled hosting environments with monitoring for intrusion attempts

While we implement these safeguards, no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security of data transmitted over the internet. Users are encouraged to use strong, unique passwords for any accounts they hold on third-party Operator platforms accessed via 2gbat guides, and to enable two-factor authentication where available.

In the event of a Personal Data breach that is likely to result in a risk to your rights and freedoms, 2gbat will notify affected users and relevant authorities in accordance with applicable legal requirements.

Depending on applicable data protection law in your jurisdiction, you may have some or all of the following rights in respect of your Personal Data held by 2gbat:

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the details in Section 15. We will respond to all verifiable requests within 30 days. We may need to verify your identity before processing a request.

If you are a parent or guardian and believe that a minor under your care has accessed the Platform and provided personal information, please contact us immediately at [email protected] so that we can take appropriate action, including deletion of any data collected.

We take child safety seriously. While 2gbat is an informational platform and does not facilitate actual gambling transactions, all gambling-related informational content on this Platform is directed exclusively at adults. We encourage parents and guardians to use parental control software to prevent minors from accessing gambling-related content online.

The 2gbat Platform is accessible globally, and our infrastructure may involve the transfer of data across international borders. Where Personal Data is transferred outside your country of residence, including transfers outside Pakistan, we take steps to ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your data in accordance with this Policy.

Such safeguards may include standard contractual clauses, data processing agreements with service providers that meet applicable data protection standards, or transfers to jurisdictions that provide an adequate level of data protection.

If you have questions about the safeguards applied to cross-border data transfers affecting your data, please contact us at the details provided in Section 15.

2gbat reserves the right to update or modify this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in our data practices, applicable law or the services we provide. When material changes are made, we will update the "Last Updated" date displayed at the top of this page and, where appropriate, provide notice on the Platform.

We encourage you to review this Policy periodically, particularly if you are a regular user of the Platform. Your continued use of 2gbat following the posting of any changes constitutes acceptance of the revised Policy. If you disagree with changes to this Policy, you should cease using the Platform.

For any questions, concerns or requests relating to this Privacy Policy, your Personal Data rights, or data practices at 2gbat, please contact us through the following channels:

We aim to acknowledge all privacy-related requests within 5 business days and to provide a substantive response within 30 days. For complex requests, this period may be extended by a further 30 days, in which case we will notify you of the extension and the reason for it.

Users seeking support in Urdu may request an Urdu-speaking agent through the Live Chat channel. 2gbat serves users across Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, Rawalpindi, Faisalabad, Multan and Peshawar and we aim to provide responsive, accessible support to all.
