Privacy Policy

Welcome to the Asaan Karobar Card (AKC) Online Portal, accessible at https://asankarobarcard.com/. We are deeply committed to protecting your privacy and the security of your personal information. This Privacy Policy is designed to explain, in clear and simple English, how we collect, use, share, and protect the information you provide when you use our website and services. Our primary goal is to help you obtain your Asaan Karobar Card, and we treat your data with the utmost care and respect. By using our website, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

1. Information We Collect

To provide you with our services, we need to collect certain information. This information is essential for processing your application, communicating with you, and ensuring our website works correctly. The information we collect can be divided into two categories: information you provide to us directly and information collected automatically.

Information You Provide to Us: This is the information you voluntarily enter into the forms on our website when you apply for the Asaan Karobar Card or contact us for support. This includes details such as your full name, your father’s or husband’s name, your CNIC (Computerized National Identity Card) number, your date of birth, your gender, your current residential address, your email address, and your mobile phone number. We may also collect business information, including your business name, business address, nature of your business, and business bank account details. This information is necessary for the official application process, and we cannot submit your application to the relevant authorities without it.

Information Collected Automatically: Like most websites, we automatically receive certain technical information from your web browser or mobile device when you visit our site. This data may include your IP address (which shows your general location), the type of browser and device you are using, your operating system, the pages you visit on our site, the time and date of your visit, and how long you spent on those pages. We collect this information using common technologies like cookies and web server logs. This helps us understand how people use our website, identify trends, and improve your overall experience by making the site faster and easier to navigate.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect for specific and legitimate purposes related to our services. Primarily, we use your personal and business information to process your application for the Asaan Karobar Card. This involves preparing your application file, checking for completeness, and submitting it to the relevant government or financial authorities on your behalf. We use your contact information, like your email address and phone number, to communicate with you about your application’s status, to respond to your questions and requests for support, and to send you important updates or information about our services. The automatic technical information we collect is used to analyze website traffic, maintain the security of our website, prevent fraudulent activity, and ensure our site displays correctly on your device. We do not use your information for any purposes other than those outlined in this policy without your consent.

3. How We Share and Disclose Your Information

We understand that your information is sensitive. We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties for their marketing purposes. However, to provide our core service, we must share your information with specific parties. Your application data will be shared with the official government and financial institutions responsible for issuing the Asaan Karobar Card. This is a necessary step to complete the process you have requested. We may also share your information with trusted third-party service providers who help us operate our website and business, such as our web hosting company, email delivery services, and customer support tools. These partners are only allowed to use your information to perform services for us and are contractually obligated to keep it confidential and secure. Finally, we may disclose your information if required by law, such as in response to a court order or subpoena, or if necessary to protect our rights, your safety, or the safety of others.

4. Data Storage and Security

The security of your personal information is our top priority. We implement a variety of strong security measures to maintain the safety of your data. We use secure servers and industry-standard encryption (such as SSL technology) to protect your information as it is transmitted between your browser and our website. We also follow strict internal procedures for storing and handling your data to prevent unauthorized access, alteration, or destruction. While we take all reasonable steps to protect your information, it is important to remember that no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. Therefore, we cannot guarantee its absolute security, but we promise to do our very best to protect it.

5. Your Rights and Choices

You have rights regarding your personal information. You can choose not to provide us with certain information, but please understand that this may prevent us from processing your application, as that information is required by the issuing authorities. You can always contact us to ask what personal data we have about you and to request that we correct any errors in that information. You can also opt-out of receiving non-essential promotional emails from us by using the “unsubscribe” link at the bottom of those emails. Please note that we may still need to send you important administrative messages about your application that are not subject to opt-out.

6. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Our website uses “cookies.” A cookie is a small text file that a website saves on your computer or mobile device when you visit it. It helps the website remember your actions and preferences over a period of time, so you don’t have to keep re-entering them whenever you come back to the site. We use cookies to understand how our site is being used, to remember your preferences, and to make your visit more efficient. You can control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers are set to accept cookies automatically, but you can choose to refuse or delete them. If you disable cookies, some features of our website may not function properly.

7. Links to Other Websites

Our website may contain links to other websites, such as the official sites of government agencies or banks. This Privacy Policy applies only to information collected by our website, https://asankarobarcard.com/. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of these other websites. When you leave our site via one of these links, we encourage you to read the privacy policy of every website you visit.

8. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. When we make changes, we will revise the “Last Updated” date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically to stay informed about how we are protecting your information. Your continued use of the website after any changes signifies your acceptance of the updated policy.
