How HQ177 Protects Your Data

A plain-language summary of how we handle your personal information. The full policy is below.

We Collect Only What We Need

HQ177 collects personal data that is necessary for account management, identity verification, payment processing and fraud prevention. We do not collect data for the sake of it.

Your Data Is Secured

All personal data and payment information transmitted to and from HQ177 is encrypted. Account data is stored on secured servers with access controls that restrict who can view your information.

We Do Not Sell Your Data

HQ177 does not sell, rent or trade your personal information to third-party marketers or data brokers. Your data stays within the HQ177 platform ecosystem and its essential service providers.

Payment Data Stays Private

Your JazzCash, Easypaisa, Raast and bank details are used only for processing your deposits and withdrawals. Payment method details are not stored in plain text on HQ177 servers.

You Control Your Data

You can request to review, correct or delete your personal data at any time by contacting HQ177 support. Data deletion requests are processed subject to legal retention requirements.

Data Kept Only as Long as Needed

Personal data is retained for as long as your account is active and for a reasonable period thereafter to meet legal, compliance and fraud prevention obligations. It is then securely deleted.

1 Who We Are

HQ177 operates the online gaming platform accessible at hq177.fun and through the HQ177 mobile application. When this Privacy Policy refers to "HQ177", "we", "us" or "our", it means the HQ177 platform and the team responsible for operating it.

This policy applies to all registered users and visitors of the HQ177 platform, including those who browse without an account. If you have any questions about how your personal data is handled, you can reach our support team through the contact details provided in your account dashboard.

2 Information We Collect

HQ177 collects personal information in two broad categories: information you provide directly, and information that is collected automatically when you use the platform.

Information You Provide

  • Account registration details: full name, date of birth, email address and, where required, mobile number.
  • Identity verification documents: government-issued ID (such as a CNIC), which may be requested before processing withdrawals or confirming account ownership.
  • Payment information: details of the payment methods you register for deposits and withdrawals, including mobile wallet account references for JazzCash, Easypaisa and Raast, and bank account details for IBFT transfers.
  • Support communications: messages you send to HQ177 support, including any attachments, are retained for the purpose of resolving your query and improving support quality.

Information Collected Automatically

  • Device and connection data: IP address, device type, operating system, browser type and mobile network information.
  • Usage data: pages visited, game sessions started, bet amounts, session duration, login timestamps and navigation patterns within the platform.
  • Transaction data: full history of deposits, withdrawals, bonuses applied and game activity associated with your account.
  • Cookies and local storage data: as described in the Cookies section below.

3 How We Collect Your Information

Most personal data is collected directly from you during account registration and ongoing platform use. Specifically, we collect data:

  • When you create a HQ177 account and fill in the registration fields.
  • When you submit identity verification documents at the platform's request.
  • When you make a deposit or withdrawal request and provide payment method details.
  • When you contact support via the account dashboard messaging system.
  • Automatically as you browse and interact with the platform, through server logs, session tracking and cookies.

Note: HQ177 does not collect personal data from social media platforms or third-party data aggregators. All data collection happens directly through your interaction with hq177.fun and the HQ177 app.

4 Why We Use Your Data

HQ177 uses the personal data it collects for the following specific purposes:

Data Type Purpose Basis
Registration details Create and manage your HQ177 account Contract performance
Identity documents Verify account ownership, process withdrawals Legal obligation, fraud prevention
Payment details Process deposits and withdrawals in PKR Contract performance
Transaction history Account records, dispute resolution, fraud detection Legal obligation, legitimate interest
Usage and session data Platform performance, responsible gaming monitoring Legitimate interest
Device and IP data Security, fraud prevention, multi-account detection Legitimate interest
Email address Account communications, promotional emails (with consent) Contract, consent

We do not use your personal data for purposes beyond those listed above without obtaining your explicit consent first. Promotional emails can be opted out of at any time through your account notification settings.

5 Who We Share Your Data With

HQ177 does not sell personal data to third parties. We share data only where necessary to operate the platform, and only with trusted service providers who are contractually bound to handle data securely and in accordance with this policy.

Categories of third parties who may receive relevant data include:

  • Payment processors: JazzCash, Easypaisa, Raast and banking partners receive the transaction details necessary to process your deposits and withdrawals. They operate under their own privacy policies for data they hold on their side.
  • Identity verification services: Where a third-party tool is used to assist with document verification, only the minimum data required for verification is shared.
  • Platform hosting and infrastructure providers: Server and cloud hosting providers that support the operation of hq177.fun and the HQ177 app are bound by data processing agreements.
  • Law enforcement or regulatory bodies: Where HQ177 is legally required to disclose account or transaction information — for example in relation to fraud investigations — data will be provided to the relevant authorities.

We do not share your data with advertisers, data brokers, social media platforms or any third party for marketing purposes without your explicit consent.

6 Payment Information

When you deposit or withdraw funds on HQ177, the payment details you provide — whether that is a JazzCash wallet number, Easypaisa account, Raast ID or bank account details for IBFT — are handled with a specific level of care that goes beyond general account data.

Payment method details are:

  • Used only for the purpose of processing the specific transaction you have requested.
  • Transmitted over encrypted connections at all times.
  • Not stored in full plain text on HQ177 servers — references to payment methods in your account are stored in a format that does not expose your full account credentials.
  • Verified against the registered account holder's identity as part of our anti-fraud and anti-money-laundering procedures.

All deposits and withdrawals on HQ177 are processed in Pakistani Rupees (PKR). Third-party payments — deposits or withdrawals made using a payment account not registered in your own name — are not permitted and will be flagged during our review process.

7 Cookies & Tracking

HQ177 uses cookies and similar local storage technologies to make the platform work correctly and to understand how it is being used. Cookies are small data files stored on your device by your browser.

The types of cookies used on hq177.fun include:

  • Strictly necessary cookies: Required for the platform to function — keeping you logged in during a session, maintaining your game state and enabling secure transactions. These cannot be disabled without breaking core functionality.
  • Performance and analytics cookies: Used to understand how users navigate the platform, which pages are visited most, where errors occur and how the platform can be improved. Data collected through these cookies is aggregated and does not identify individual users.
  • Preference cookies: Store your platform preferences such as language settings and display options so you do not need to reset them each session.

Most browsers allow you to manage cookie settings from the browser preferences menu. Blocking strictly necessary cookies will affect your ability to use the platform normally.

8 Data Retention

HQ177 retains your personal data for as long as your account is active. After account closure, data is retained for a further period as required by applicable legal, financial and anti-fraud obligations. The typical retention periods are:

  • Account and identity data: Retained for a minimum of five years after account closure to meet standard financial record-keeping requirements.
  • Transaction records: Retained for a minimum of five years from the date of the transaction.
  • Support communications: Retained for two years from the date of the last message in a support thread, or longer if the conversation relates to an ongoing dispute.
  • Session and usage logs: Typically retained for twelve months from the date of the session.

Once retention periods expire, data is securely deleted or anonymised so that it can no longer be linked back to your identity.

9 Your Rights Over Your Data

You have rights over the personal data HQ177 holds about you. These rights can be exercised by contacting HQ177 support through your account dashboard.

Right to Access

You can request a copy of the personal data HQ177 holds about you. We will respond within a reasonable timeframe.

Right to Correction

If any personal data held in your account is inaccurate, you can correct it via your account settings or by contacting support.

Right to Deletion

You may request deletion of your account and associated data, subject to legal retention obligations that prevent immediate full deletion.

Right to Object

You can object to processing of your data for marketing purposes at any time through your account notification settings.

Right to Portability

You can request your personal data in a structured, machine-readable format to transfer to another service where technically feasible.

Right to Restrict Processing

In certain circumstances you can request that processing of your data be restricted while a query or dispute is being resolved.

10 Data Security

HQ177 takes the security of your personal data seriously and implements technical and organisational measures appropriate to the nature of the data held.

Security measures in place include:

  • SSL/TLS encryption for all data transmitted between your device and HQ177 servers.
  • Password hashing — your account password is not stored in plain text and cannot be retrieved, only reset.
  • Access controls that limit which internal staff or systems can access personal account data, based on role and necessity.
  • Regular security monitoring of the platform infrastructure for unusual access patterns or attempted breaches.
  • Two-factor authentication options available to account holders to protect login access.

While HQ177 takes all reasonable precautions, no internet-connected platform can guarantee absolute security. You are responsible for maintaining the security of your own account credentials. If you suspect your account has been compromised, contact support immediately and change your password.

Important: HQ177 staff will never ask for your password, PIN or full payment account credentials via any communication channel. Any message claiming to be from HQ177 support and asking for this information should be treated as suspicious.

11 Children's Privacy

HQ177 is strictly an adult platform. Persons under the age of 18 are not permitted to register for or use any part of the HQ177 platform, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18.

If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has registered on HQ177, please contact support immediately with the account details. We will investigate and, where confirmed, close the account and delete the associated data as soon as practically possible.

All new accounts are required to confirm at registration that the account holder is 18 or older. Accounts flagged as potentially belonging to a minor are suspended pending age verification review.

12 Updates to This Privacy Policy

HQ177 may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in how the platform operates, new features that involve data collection, or changes in applicable data protection requirements.

When we make significant changes to this policy, registered account holders will be notified via their registered email address or through an in-platform notification. The updated policy will be published at hq177.fun/privacy-policy with a revised effective date at the top of the page.

Your continued use of the HQ177 platform after notification of updates constitutes acceptance of the revised Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with the updated policy, you may close your account and request deletion of your data before the changes take effect.

For any questions or requests relating to this Privacy Policy or the personal data HQ177 holds about you, please use the support contact available within your account dashboard. You may also review our related policies: Terms and Conditions and Responsible Gaming.
