This policy applies to all registered players and visitors of 88php who are based in the Philippines. By creating an account and using 88php, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy and consent to the collection and processing of your personal data as described herein.

88php is committed to protecting your privacy and handling your personal data with transparency, care and in full compliance with the Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act No. 10173) and its implementing rules and regulations issued by the National Privacy Commission (NPC) of the Philippines.

88php collects personal data that is necessary to operate the platform, verify your identity, process transactions and comply with applicable Philippine regulations. The categories of data we collect are described below.

We do not intentionally collect sensitive personal data such as health information, religion or political affiliation. If you voluntarily provide such information in support communications, it will be handled with the highest level of care and deleted once the purpose for which it was provided has been fulfilled.

88php uses your personal data only for legitimate, clearly defined purposes. We do not use your data for purposes incompatible with those stated at the time of collection. The table below summarises the main purposes and the data categories involved.

• Account creation and management — Identity and contact data are used to set up and maintain your player account, process logins and manage account security.
• Identity verification (KYC) — Philippine government-issued ID documents are processed to confirm that you are at least 21 years old and to comply with anti-money laundering obligations under Philippine law.
• Payment processing — Financial data is used to process deposits via GCash, Maya or Philippine bank transfer and to fulfil withdrawal requests to your verified payment method.
• Platform operation — Gaming data is used to operate bets, calculate outcomes, credit winnings, manage VIP tier progression and enforce platform rules.
• Fraud prevention and security — Technical and identity data are used to detect suspicious activity, prevent duplicate accounts, identify automated betting tools and protect the integrity of the platform.
• Customer support — Communications data is used to respond to your queries, resolve disputes and improve our support services.
• Responsible gaming — Gaming and financial data are monitored to identify patterns that may indicate problematic gambling behaviour, enabling us to intervene with appropriate responsible gaming tools.
• Marketing communications — With your consent, contact data may be used to send you information about promotions, bonuses and platform updates. You can withdraw consent at any time by contacting support or updating your account preferences.
• Legal and regulatory compliance — Data may be processed and retained as required by applicable Philippine laws and regulations.

Under the Data Privacy Act of 2012, 88php processes your personal data on one or more of the following legal bases:

• Contractual necessity — Processing is necessary to perform our contract with you, including operating your account and processing your bets and transactions.
• Legal obligation — Processing is necessary to comply with applicable Philippine laws, including anti-money laundering regulations and age verification requirements.
• Legitimate interests — Processing is necessary for 88php's legitimate interests, including fraud prevention, platform security and service improvement, provided these interests are not overridden by your rights.
• Consent — For marketing communications and certain optional data uses, processing is based on your explicit consent given at registration or through account settings. You may withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of prior processing.

88php does not sell your personal data to third parties. We share your data only where it is necessary to operate the platform or comply with legal obligations, and only with parties who are bound by appropriate data protection obligations. The third parties with whom we may share your data are as follows:

• Payment processors — GCash, Maya and Philippine banking partners receive transaction data necessary to process your deposits and withdrawals. These parties process data under their own privacy policies and Philippine financial regulations.
• Identity verification providers — Third-party KYC service providers may receive copies of your government-issued ID and related personal data to perform identity and age verification on our behalf.
• Technology service providers — Cloud hosting, cybersecurity, analytics and platform infrastructure providers may process technical and operational data as data processors acting under 88php's instructions.
• Responsible gaming partners — In cases where a player has enrolled in a self-exclusion programme, relevant data may be shared with responsible gaming systems to enforce the exclusion across affiliated platforms where applicable.
• Legal and regulatory authorities — 88php will disclose personal data to Philippine law enforcement, courts or regulatory bodies when required by law, court order or to protect the rights and safety of 88php and its players.
• Business successors — In the event of a merger, acquisition or sale of assets, your personal data may be transferred to the successor entity, subject to continued compliance with this Privacy Policy.

All third-party data processors engaged by 88php are contractually required to process your data only on our instructions, maintain appropriate security measures and comply with applicable Philippine data protection law.

88php retains your personal data for as long as your account is active and for a period thereafter as required by law or legitimate business purposes. The general retention periods applicable to different data categories are outlined below.

Once the applicable retention period expires and there is no overriding legal basis to retain your data, 88php will securely delete or anonymise your personal data in accordance with industry best practices.

88php takes the security of your personal data seriously. We implement a range of technical and organisational measures designed to protect your data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, destruction or disclosure. These measures include:

• Encryption — All data transmitted between your device and the 88php platform is encrypted using industry-standard TLS (Transport Layer Security) protocols.
• Access controls — Access to personal data is restricted to authorised 88php personnel and service providers who have a legitimate need to process it. All access is logged and audited.
• Password security — Player passwords are stored using one-way cryptographic hashing. 88php staff cannot view or retrieve your password.
• Infrastructure security — The 88php platform is hosted on secured infrastructure with firewall protection, intrusion detection systems and regular security assessments.
• Staff training — All 88php personnel who handle personal data receive regular training on data protection obligations and security best practices.

While 88php takes all reasonable measures to protect your data, no online platform can guarantee absolute security. You also have a responsibility to keep your account credentials confidential and to notify us immediately if you suspect any unauthorised access to your account.

88php does not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under the age of 21. The 88php platform is strictly intended for adults who are at least 21 years of age and physically located in the Philippines.

Age verification is a mandatory step in the 88php account registration and KYC process.

Acceptable documents include a Philippine passport, driver's licence, PhilSys national ID, SSS ID, GSIS ID or PRC ID.

If 88php discovers that an account has been created by a person under the age of 21, the account will be immediately suspended, all personal data collected in connection with that account will be securely deleted, and any funds deposited will be returned to the original payment source minus any bonuses already used.
