These direct marketing offers, depending on your preferences, may be personalized taking into account any other information which you have provided to us (e.g. location, social media profile information, etc.) or we have collected or generated from other sources as described below.

To show our own ads to people who may be interested in Pak Stock Exchange, we may share a scrambled (hashed) version of your email address with advertising platforms such as Meta (Facebook and Instagram), for example to find people similar to our members or to avoid showing you our ads. The platform cannot read the original address from this. If you do not want us to do this, email us at wasi@pakstockexchange.com and we will leave you out.

If you create an account, we may send you a short series of emails to help you get started, for example about placing your first practice trade, competitions or a summary of your practice portfolio. Each of these emails has an unsubscribe link and you can opt out at any time. Account and security emails, such as password resets, are always sent.

If you wish to withdraw the consent for direct marketing, and refuse to receive information from us, you may exercise such option at any time you wish by following the instructions to unsubscribe in the received email, clicking on a link for that purpose at the bottom of our e-mail with the newsletters.

Sharing contact details with a partner or sponsor, only if you say yes. From time to time we may offer you the chance to hear from a partner or sponsor, for example a brokerage firm, about a product or service. We share your name and contact details with that partner only if you have clearly agreed to it, at the time, for that partner and that purpose. You can withdraw your agreement at any time by emailing us at the address below; this does not undo what a partner already received, so ask the partner to delete it as well. We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share your contact details with anyone for marketing without this clear consent.
