ph82 Privacy Policy

1. About This Policy

ph82 ("we," "us," "our," or "ph82") is a PAGCOR-regulated online casino and sports betting platform operated for Filipino players at ph82.cam. As the data controller of the personal information you provide when using our platform, ph82 is responsible for ensuring that your data is handled lawfully, transparently, and securely.

Where ph82's obligations under PAGCOR licensing require additional data handling practices — for example, those relating to AMLC reporting or responsible gaming record-keeping — those obligations are also reflected in this policy.

This policy should be read alongside our Terms & Conditions and Responsible Gaming Policy, both of which are incorporated by reference.

ph82 does not use your personal data for purposes unrelated to the operation of ph82.cam and the provision of gaming services to Filipino players. Aggregated, anonymized data may be used for statistical analysis and product improvement without identifying individual players.

5. Legal Basis for Processing

Under the Philippine Data Privacy Act, ph82 relies on the following legal bases to process your personal data:

5.1 Contractual Necessity

The majority of data processing by ph82 is necessary to perform the contract formed when you create a ph82 account and accept the Terms & Conditions. Without processing your identity, financial, and gameplay data, ph82 cannot provide you with account access, game play, deposit processing, or withdrawal services.

5.2 Legal Obligation

ph82 is legally obligated to collect and retain certain categories of personal data to comply with its PAGCOR license conditions, Republic Act No. 9160 (Anti-Money Laundering Act of 2001, as amended), PAGCOR Memoranda, and other applicable Philippine regulations. This processing cannot be declined by the data subject.

5.3 Legitimate Interests

ph82 may process certain data — such as technical and behavioral data for fraud prevention and platform security — on the basis of its legitimate interest in operating a secure, fair gaming environment, provided those interests are not overridden by your rights and freedoms.

5.4 Consent

Where ph82 sends optional marketing communications or collects data for purposes beyond those listed above, we will seek your explicit consent. You may withdraw consent at any time by contacting [email protected], without this affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out prior to withdrawal.

6. Data Sharing & Disclosure

ph82 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third-party marketers or data brokers. We share your personal data only in the following limited circumstances:

6.1 Service Providers

ph82 engages trusted third-party service providers to support platform operations, including payment processors (GCash, Maya, bank partners), identity verification services, cloud hosting providers, game content licensors, and customer support infrastructure providers. These parties process your data solely on ph82's behalf under binding data processing agreements and are not permitted to use your data for their own purposes.

6.2 Regulatory Authorities

ph82 discloses personal data to PAGCOR, the Anti-Money Laundering Council (AMLC), the National Privacy Commission (NPC), and other competent Philippine government authorities when required by law, court order, or regulatory directive. These disclosures are non-negotiable and do not require your prior consent where the disclosure is legally mandated.

6.3 Corporate Transactions

In the event of a merger, acquisition, sale of assets, or restructuring affecting ph82, personal data held by ph82 may be transferred to a successor entity, provided that the successor maintains data protection standards at least equivalent to those described in this policy. Players will be notified of any such transfer in advance where practicable.

6.4 Fraud Prevention & Legal Proceedings

ph82 may share personal data with law enforcement agencies, the NBI, PNP, or other authorities where necessary to investigate fraud, suspected criminal activity, or violations of ph82's Terms & Conditions that may constitute offenses under Philippine law.

7. Cookies & Tracking Technologies

ph82.cam uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to operate the platform, maintain your logged-in session, detect fraud, and improve the user experience. The categories of cookies used on ph82 are:

• Strictly Necessary Cookies: Required for the platform to function. These enable account login sessions, security features, and payment flow navigation. You cannot opt out of these cookies while using ph82.
• Functional Cookies: Remember your preferences such as language settings, preferred lobby view, or recently played games to improve your session experience.
• Analytics Cookies: Collect aggregated, anonymized information about how players navigate ph82.cam to help us identify performance issues and improve the platform. These do not identify you personally.
• Security Cookies: Used to detect and prevent fraudulent activity, bot access, and unauthorized account access attempts.

ph82 does not use third-party advertising cookies or behaviorally targeted advertising networks. You may manage cookie preferences through your browser settings, though disabling strictly necessary cookies will prevent you from accessing your ph82 account.

8. Data Security

ph82 implements technical and organizational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. Our security practices include:

• Transport Layer Security (TLS) encryption for all data transmitted between your device and ph82's servers.
• Encryption at rest for databases containing personal and financial information.
• Role-based access controls limiting ph82 staff access to personal data on a need-to-know basis.
• Multi-factor authentication requirements for internal administrative systems.
• Regular security assessments and vulnerability testing of platform infrastructure.
• Incident response procedures that comply with NPC data breach notification requirements.

While ph82 takes all reasonable steps to protect your personal data, no internet-based system can guarantee absolute security. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for reporting any suspected unauthorized access to [email protected] immediately.

In the event of a personal data breach that poses a risk to your rights and freedoms, ph82 will notify the NPC within 72 hours of becoming aware of the breach and will communicate with affected players as required by Philippine law.

9. Data Retention

ph82 retains personal data for the minimum period necessary to fulfill the purpose for which it was collected, subject to mandatory retention periods imposed by Philippine law and PAGCOR regulations. The following general retention schedules apply:

• Active account data: Retained for the lifetime of the account and for a period of five (5) years following permanent account closure, in compliance with PAGCOR record-keeping requirements.
• Financial transaction records: Retained for a minimum of ten (10) years from the date of the transaction, as required by the Anti-Money Laundering Act of 2001, as amended.
• KYC documents: Retained for five (5) years from the date of account closure or last transaction, whichever is later.
• Customer support communications: Retained for up to two (2) years from the date of the final communication in a support thread, unless the matter is subject to ongoing legal proceedings.
• Gameplay and session logs: Retained for up to three (3) years for fraud prevention, responsible gaming monitoring, and dispute resolution purposes.

Upon expiry of the applicable retention period, personal data will be securely deleted or anonymized in accordance with ph82's data disposal procedures.
