At ph98, we take your privacy seriously. This Privacy Policy explains what personal information we collect from players in the Philippines, how we use it, and the steps we take to keep it safe. By using the ph98 platform, you agree to the practices described on this page.
When you register an account on ph98, we collect basic personal information such as your full name, date of birth, email address, and contact number. This information is required to verify your identity, confirm your eligibility to play in the Philippines, and keep your account secure. We also collect transaction data — including deposit and withdrawal records — to process payments accurately and comply with financial regulations. When you use the ph98 mobile app or website, we maycollect technical data such as your device type, browser, IP address, and session activity to improve platform performance and detect unusual behaviour. We use cookies and similar technologies to remember your preferences and deliver a smoother experience each time you visit. All data collected by ph98 is used solely for the purposes of operating the platform, processing transactions, verifying accounts, and meeting our legal obligations under Philippine law. We do not collect more information than is necessary, and we review our data practices regularly to make sure they remain appropriate and proportionate.
ph98 uses industry-standard security measures to protect the personal data of all registered players in the Philippines. All data transmitted between your device and our platform is encrypted using secure protocols, so your information cannot be intercepted during transfer. Account passwords are stored in hashed form and are never accessible in plain text, even to our own staff. We restrict internal access to personal data on a need-to-know basis, meaning only authorised personnel involved in account management, payments, or compliance can view your information. Our systems are monitored continuously for suspicious activity, and we conduct regular security reviews to identify and address potential vulnerabilities. In the event of a data breach that affects your personal information, ph98 will notify you and the relevant Philippine authorities in accordance with applicable data privacy regulations. We encourage you to also take steps to protect your own account by using a strong, unique password and never sharing your login credentials with anyone.
ph98 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to any third party for marketing or commercial purposes. We may share your data with trusted service providers who assist us in operating the platform — such as payment processors, identity verification services, and technical infrastructure partners — but only to the extent necessary for them to perform their specific function. All third-party partners who handle ph98 player data are required to maintain appropriate data protection standards and are prohibited from using your information for any purpose beyond what we have authorised. In certain circumstances, ph98 may be required by law to disclose personal data to regulatory bodies, law enforcement agencies, or courts in the Philippines. We will always aim to limit such disclosures to the minimum information required. If ph98 undergoes a business restructure or acquisition, your data may be transferred as part of that process, but you will be notified and your rights will be protected throughout.
As a registered player based in the Philippines, you have the right to access the personal data that ph98 holds about you at any time. You may also request that we correct any inaccurate information, or ask us to delete your data where it is no longer needed for the purposes for which it was collected. If you have given consent for us to use your data for marketing communications, you can withdraw that consent at any time and we will stop sending you promotional messages. You have the right to request a copy of your data in a portable format, and to object to certain types of processing where you believe it is not justified. To exercise any of these rights, please contact ph98 through the support channels listed on the platform — we will respond to all data requests within a reasonable timeframe. ph98 is committed to honouring your privacy rights in full compliance with the Data Privacy Act of the Philippines.
ph98 uses cookies — small text files stored on your device — to make the platform work properly and to improve your experience as a player. Essential cookies are required for core functions such as keeping you logged in and processing transactions securely; these cannot be disabled without affecting how the platform operates. We also use performance cookies to understand how players navigate the site, which helps us identify areas for improvement. Preference cookies remember your settings, such as your chosen language or display options, so you do not have to re-enter them on every visit. You can manage your cookie preferences through your browser settings at any time, though disabling certain cookies may limit some features of the ph98 platform. We do not use cookies to track your activity across unrelated third-party websites, and we do not share cookie data with advertisers.
ph98 retains your personal data only for as long as it is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by applicable law in the Philippines. Account information is typically kept for the duration of your active account and for a defined period after account closure, in order to meet our legal and regulatory obligations. Transaction records are retained for the period required under Philippine financial regulations, which may extend beyond the closure of your account. Where data is no longer needed, ph98 will securely delete or anonymise it so that it can no longer be linked back to you. If you request deletion of your account and associated data, we will process your request promptly, subject to any legal retention requirements that may apply. We review our data retention schedules regularly to ensure we are not holding information longer than necessary.
