This Privacy Policy explains what information this website collects, how it is used, and what your rights are. Please read it before using this site.

Information We Collect
Information You Provide
Contact form submissions: If you send us a message through the contact form, we collect the name (if provided), email address, and message content you submit. We use this solely to respond to your query.
We do not collect payment information, CNIC numbers, reference numbers, or any sensitive personal data through this website.
Information Collected Automatically
When you visit this site, standard web server logs and analytics tools may collect:
- Your IP address (anonymized)
- Browser type and version
- Pages visited and time spent
- Referring URL (what site or search brought you here)
- Device type (mobile, desktop, tablet)
This information is collected in aggregate to understand how the site is used and to improve content. It is not used to identify individual visitors.
The Bill Checker Tool
When you enter a reference number in the bill checker tool, that query is sent directly to the PITC billing portal (bill.pitc.com.pk) — the official government billing system. We do not store, log, or retain your reference number or any billing data returned by the tool. The data flows between your browser and the PITC server. We see none of it.
Cookies and Web Beacons
