ph796 Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy ("Policy") is issued by ph796 ("ph796", "we", "us", "our") and applies to all personal data collected from individuals ("you", "your", "Player") who access or use the ph796 online gaming platform available at https://ph796.net, including all associated pages, subdomains, mobile interfaces, and applications (collectively, the "Platform").

ph796 is committed to safeguarding the privacy of every Filipino player who trusts us with their personal information. This Policy explains in clear terms what personal data we collect, why we collect it, how we process it, with whom we may share it, how long we retain it, and the rights you are entitled to exercise over your own data.

This Policy is drafted in compliance with the Philippines' Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act No. 10173) and its Implementing Rules and Regulations, as well as any other applicable data protection legislation. By registering an account or using the ph796 Platform, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Policy.

For the purposes of the Data Privacy Act of 2012 and this Policy, ph796 acts as the personal information controller in respect of all personal data processed through the Platform. This means ph796 determines the purposes and means by which your personal information is collected and used.

Where ph796 engages third-party service providers to process personal data on its behalf — such as payment processors, KYC verification providers, or analytics platforms — those parties act as personal information processors and are bound by data processing agreements requiring them to handle your data only in accordance with ph796's instructions and applicable Philippine law.

For any privacy-related enquiries, data subject access requests, or complaints, you may contact ph796's designated Data Protection Officer using the contact details set out in Section 14 of this Policy.

ph796 collects and processes the following categories of personal data from players registered on or interacting with the Platform:

ph796 does not intentionally collect sensitive personal information such as health data, political opinions, or religious beliefs. If any such information is incidentally disclosed in a support communication, it will not be used for any purpose other than addressing the specific concern raised.

ph796 collects your personal data through the following methods:

• Direct submission: Information you provide when registering an account, completing KYC verification, making a deposit or withdrawal request, contacting support, or updating your account profile.
• Automated collection: Technical and gameplay data collected automatically through cookies, server logs, and similar tracking technologies when you interact with the Platform. See Section 8 for full cookie details.
• Third-party sources: Identity and address verification data received from licensed KYC and anti-money laundering (AML) screening providers in the course of verifying your account; fraud risk data received from payment processors.
• Payment providers: Transaction confirmation data received from GCash, PayMaya, BPI, BDO, Metrobank, and Visa/Mastercard networks when you initiate deposits or withdrawals.

ph796 uses your personal data only for specified, explicit, and legitimate purposes. The primary purposes for which we process your data include:

• Account management: To register, verify, and maintain your ph796 player account, including processing deposits, withdrawals, and bonus claims.
• Identity verification (KYC): To comply with anti-money laundering regulations and to verify that you meet the 21+ age requirement applicable to online gaming in the Philippines.
• Platform operation: To deliver, maintain, and improve the games, features, and services available on ph796, including personalising your gaming experience.
• Responsible gaming: To monitor gameplay patterns for signs of problem gambling, to apply self-exclusion settings you have activated, and to enforce deposit limits you have set on your account.
• Fraud prevention and security: To detect, investigate, and prevent fraudulent transactions, account takeovers, money laundering, and other prohibited activities on the Platform.
• Legal and regulatory compliance: To comply with obligations under Philippine law, including reporting obligations to relevant regulatory authorities and responding to lawful requests from government agencies.
• Customer support: To respond to your queries, complaints, and disputes, and to maintain records of our communications with you.
• Marketing communications: To send you promotional offers, bonus notifications, and platform updates — but only where you have given explicit consent to receive such communications.

Under the Data Privacy Act of 2012, ph796 is required to have a lawful basis for each purpose for which we process your personal data. The legal bases on which ph796 relies are:

• Contractual necessity: Processing required to fulfil our obligations to you under the Terms and Conditions — including account management, payment processing, and game delivery.
• Legal obligation: Processing required to comply with KYC, AML, responsible gaming, and other regulatory requirements imposed on ph796 under Philippine law.
• Legitimate interests: Processing necessary for fraud prevention, platform security, and the improvement of our services, where those interests are not overridden by your data protection rights.
• Consent: Processing for marketing communications and optional personalisation features, where you have freely given, specific, and informed consent. You may withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.

ph796 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to third parties for their own marketing or commercial purposes. We share personal data only in the following circumstances and only to the extent necessary:

• Payment processors: GCash, PayMaya, BPI, BDO, Metrobank, and Visa/Mastercard networks receive transactional data necessary to process your deposits and withdrawals.
• KYC and AML providers: Licensed identity verification and anti-money laundering screening services receive identity and documentation data to complete account verification.
• Game software providers: Third-party game studios and live dealer operators receive anonymised or pseudonymised gameplay session data required to deliver game content through the ph796 Platform.
• Technology and infrastructure providers: Cloud hosting, data storage, cybersecurity, and analytics service providers who support the technical operation of ph796, under strict data processing agreements.
• Regulatory and law enforcement authorities: Where ph796 is required by law, court order, or regulatory direction to disclose your information, we will do so to the minimum extent required and will, where legally permissible, notify you of such disclosure.
• Corporate transactions: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or substantially all of ph796's assets, your personal data may be transferred to the acquiring entity, subject to the same privacy protections described in this Policy.

All third parties with whom ph796 shares personal data are required to maintain the confidentiality of that data and to process it only for the purposes for which it was shared, in accordance with applicable law and their agreements with ph796.

ph796 uses cookies and similar technologies (including web beacons, local storage objects, and session tokens) to operate and improve the Platform. The types of cookies we use are described in the table below:

You can control and manage cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to refuse non-essential cookies, delete existing cookies, or be notified when a new cookie is set. Please note that disabling strictly necessary cookies will prevent you from logging into your ph796 account and accessing most platform features.

ph796 does not use third-party advertising cookies or cross-site tracking cookies that share your data with advertising networks for the purpose of serving targeted ads on other websites.

ph796 retains your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by applicable Philippine law and regulatory obligations. Our standard retention periods are as follows:

• Active account data: Retained for the duration of your active ph796 account relationship plus a period of five (5) years following account closure, to satisfy AML record-keeping requirements.
• KYC documentation: Retained for a minimum of five (5) years from the date of verification, in line with Philippine AML regulations.
• Financial transaction records: Retained for a minimum of five (5) years from the date of each transaction.
• Gameplay records: Retained for three (3) years from the date of each session, unless a longer retention period is required for dispute resolution or regulatory purposes.
• Support communications: Retained for two (2) years from the date of the last communication in a support thread.
• Marketing consent records: Retained for the duration of your active consent and for two (2) years following withdrawal of consent, as evidence of your consent decision.

Upon the expiry of the applicable retention period, ph796 will securely delete or anonymise your personal data so that it can no longer be linked back to you as an individual.

As a data subject under the Data Privacy Act of 2012, you are entitled to exercise the following rights in respect of your personal data held by ph796. To exercise any of these rights, please contact ph796's Data Protection Officer using the details in Section 14:

• Right of access: You may request a copy of the personal data ph796 holds about you, together with information about how and why it is being processed.
• Right to rectification: You may request the correction of any inaccurate or incomplete personal data we hold about you. For account profile data, many corrections can be made directly in your account settings.
• Right to erasure: You may request the deletion of your personal data where it is no longer necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, where you have withdrawn consent, or where processing is unlawful. This right is subject to ph796's legal obligation to retain certain data under AML and regulatory requirements.
• Right to object: You may object to the processing of your personal data for direct marketing purposes at any time. You may also object to processing based on legitimate interests, subject to ph796's ability to demonstrate compelling grounds for that processing.
• Right to data portability: Where processing is based on your consent or contractual necessity and is carried out by automated means, you may request a copy of your data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format.

ph796 implements and maintains a comprehensive set of technical and organisational security measures designed to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, destruction, alteration, or disclosure. These measures include:

• Transport Layer Security (TLS) encryption for all data transmitted between your device and the ph796 Platform.
• Encryption at rest for sensitive personal data stored in ph796's databases, including KYC documents and financial data.
• Role-based access controls ensuring that ph796 personnel can only access personal data strictly necessary for their job function.
• Regular internal and third-party security audits and vulnerability assessments of ph796's infrastructure and systems.
• Incident response procedures that include mandatory breach notification to the National Privacy Commission within 72 hours of discovery of a personal data breach, in accordance with NPC Circular 16-03.
• Staff training on data privacy obligations and secure data handling practices.

While ph796 takes all reasonable steps to protect your personal data, no online platform can guarantee absolute security. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your ph796 account credentials and for notifying us immediately if you suspect any unauthorised access to your account.

The ph796 platform is strictly intended for individuals who are 21 years of age or older, in accordance with Philippine regulations governing online gambling and casino-style gaming. ph796 does not knowingly collect or process personal data from individuals under the age of 21.

During the registration process, ph796 collects your date of birth and conducts age verification as part of the KYC process to enforce this requirement. If ph796 discovers or has reasonable grounds to believe that an account has been registered by a person under the minimum age, that account will be immediately suspended, all gameplay activity will be voided, and any deposits will be refunded to the payment method used, in accordance with applicable law.

If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has registered an account on ph796, please contact our support team immediately via live chat or through the contact details in Section 14 so that we can take prompt action.

ph796 reserves the right to update or amend this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in our data processing practices, applicable law, or platform functionality. When material changes are made to this Policy, ph796 will update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page and will notify registered players via email or an in-platform notification where required.

Your continued use of the ph796 Platform following the posting of an updated Privacy Policy constitutes your acknowledgment of the changes and your agreement to the updated terms. If you do not agree with any change to this Policy, you should discontinue your use of the Platform and may request account closure in accordance with the Terms and Conditions.

We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically so that you remain informed about how ph796 collects, uses, and protects your personal information.
