Cookies & Tracking Technologies

Security Measures
988wib implements a range of technical and organisational security measures designed to protect personal data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, destruction, alteration or disclosure. These measures include:
- TLS Encryption: All data transmitted between users and the 988wib Platform is encrypted using Transport Layer Security (TLS). The platform operates exclusively over HTTPS;
- Password Hashing: User passwords are stored exclusively as salted cryptographic hashes. Plain-text passwords are never stored or transmitted;
- Access Controls: Internal access to personal data is restricted on a need-to-know basis. Administrative access is protected by multi-factor authentication;
- Infrastructure Security: The platform is hosted on security-hardened infrastructure with regular patching, intrusion detection and vulnerability assessments;
- Breach Response: In the event of a data breach involving personal data, 988wib will take immediate containment steps, conduct a root-cause investigation and, where legally required, notify affected users and relevant authorities within the applicable statutory timeframe.
While 988wib takes robust measures to secure personal data, no security system is completely impenetrable. We encourage users to maintain strong, unique passwords and to contact support immediately if they suspect unauthorised account access.
Minors & Age Policy
The 988wib Platform is strictly intended for use by adults aged 18 years or older, or the higher minimum age required by the applicable operator or license jurisdiction. 988wib does not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under the applicable minimum age.
If 988wib becomes aware that personal data has been collected from a minor, it will take immediate steps to delete that data and close the associated account. If you believe that a minor has provided personal data to 988wib, please contact us at [email protected] so that we may investigate and act promptly.
International Data Transfers
As an online platform, 988wib may use service providers and infrastructure hosts located outside Pakistan. Where personal data is transferred to countries that may not have equivalent data protection standards, 988wib will implement appropriate safeguards to ensure that the transfer is lawful and that the receiving party provides adequate protection for your data.
Safeguards for international transfers may include contractual clauses imposing data protection obligations on the receiving party, transfers to countries with recognised adequacy determinations, or other legally permissible mechanisms as appropriate to the specific transfer.
Users in Pakistan should be aware that data transferred outside Pakistan may be subject to the laws of the receiving country, which may differ from Pakistani law. 988wib endeavours to ensure that all cross-border data flows maintain the same standard of protection set out in this Policy.

988wib reserves the right to update or amend this Privacy Policy at any time. The revised Policy will be published on this page with the updated review date indicated at the top of the document. Continued use of the 988wib Platform following publication of a revised Policy constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
Where changes are material — for example, a significant expansion of the types of data collected or the purposes for which data is used — 988wib will endeavour to notify registered users via email or a prominent platform notification, where practicable, prior to the change taking effect.
We encourage users to revisit this page periodically to remain informed of how 988wib manages and protects personal data.
