ph896 respects your privacy. This Policy explains exactly what personal data we collect, why we collect it, how we protect it, and what rights you have over your own information as a player on our Philippine online casino platform.
Six key commitments ph896 makes to every Filipino player about how we handle personal data.
Every connection to ph896 is protected by 256-bit SSL/TLS encryption — the same technology used by Philippine online banking. Your login credentials, deposit details, and personal information are encrypted in transit at all times.
ph896 processes personal data in accordance with Republic Act No. 10173, the Data Privacy Act of 2012, and the implementing rules of the National Privacy Commission (NPC). Your rights under Philippine data privacy law are fully respected and enforceable.
ph896 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties for their independent marketing purposes. Data shared with service providers is governed by strict data processing agreements that prohibit unauthorized use.
ph896 collects only the personal data necessary to operate your account, process your payments, comply with PAGCOR regulations, and deliver the gaming services you signed up for. We do not collect data speculatively or beyond what is required.
Under the Philippine Data Privacy Act, you have the right to access, correct, delete, and port your personal data held by ph896. You can exercise any of these rights by contacting our Data Protection Officer via live chat or email at any time.
ph896 maintains clear records of all data processing activities as required by PAGCOR and the NPC. You can request a summary of how your data has been processed at any time. We do not obscure data handling behind opaque technical language.
A quick reference to the categories of personal data ph896 handles.
This Privacy Policy ("Policy") describes how ph896 — the online gaming platform operated at ph896.club ("ph896," "we," "us," or "our") — collects, uses, stores, discloses, and protects the personal information of individuals ("you," "Player," or "Data Subject") who register for, access, or use the ph896 platform and related services.
ph896 is committed to protecting the personal data of Filipino players in accordance with Republic Act No. 10173, the Data Privacy Act of 2012 ("DPA"), and its Implementing Rules and Regulations as issued by the National Privacy Commission ("NPC") of the Philippines. We also comply with applicable regulations issued by the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation ("PAGCOR") in relation to player data handling.
By creating a ph896 account, depositing funds, or otherwise using our platform, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Policy and consent to the processing of your personal data as described herein. If you do not agree to this Policy, you must cease using ph896 immediately.
ph896 (operated at ph896.club) is the personal information controller ("PIC") for all personal data collected in connection with your use of the platform. As the PIC, ph896 determines the purposes and means of processing your personal data and is responsible for ensuring that such processing complies with the DPA and applicable PAGCOR regulations.
ph896 has appointed a Data Protection Officer ("DPO") to oversee compliance with this Policy and applicable data privacy laws. The DPO can be contacted at any time through the channels listed in Section 15 of this Policy.
When you create a ph896 account, we collect your full legal name, date of birth, Philippine mobile number, and chosen username. This information is required to establish your account identity, enforce our 21+ age restriction, and comply with PAGCOR's player registration requirements.
Before processing your first withdrawal, ph896 requires identity verification. This involves collecting a scan or photograph of a government-issued Philippine identification document (passport, driver's license, UMID, SSS ID, PhilHealth ID, or voter's ID) and a live selfie holding the document. This data is processed solely for identity verification, fraud prevention, and anti-money laundering compliance as required by PAGCOR and the Anti-Money Laundering Council ("AMLC").
ph896 collects data related to your payment transactions, including GCash account identifiers, PayMaya account identifiers, bank account details (for InstaPay transfers), USDT wallet addresses, deposit amounts, withdrawal amounts, and transaction reference numbers. We do not store full payment card numbers on our servers; card transactions are processed through PCI-DSS compliant third-party payment processors.
ph896 records your gaming activity on the platform, including games played, bet amounts, win and loss outcomes, session durations, game preferences, and bonus usage history. This data is used to operate the platform, resolve disputes, detect irregular play patterns, enforce responsible gaming limits, and comply with PAGCOR reporting requirements.
When you access ph896, we automatically collect technical information including your IP address, browser type and version, operating system, device model, screen resolution, and session timestamps. This data is used for security monitoring, fraud detection, geographic compliance verification, and platform performance optimization.
When you contact ph896 via live chat, email, Messenger, or Viber, we retain records of those communications including their content, timestamps, and associated account identifiers. These records are used to resolve inquiries, train our support team, and maintain a record of platform interactions as required by our regulatory obligations.
ph896 uses cookies and similar tracking technologies as described in Section 10 of this Policy. Cookie data collected includes session identifiers, preference settings, and aggregated analytics information.
ph896 processes your personal data for the following specific purposes:
Under the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012, ph896 processes personal data on one or more of the following lawful grounds:
ph896 shares personal data with trusted third-party service providers who process data on our behalf as Personal Information Processors ("PIPs") under the DPA. These include payment gateway operators (GCash, PayMaya, and bank partners), cloud infrastructure providers, KYC verification platform vendors, fraud detection service providers, and customer support platform operators. All PIPs are bound by data processing agreements that restrict their use of your data to the specific services they provide to ph896.
Game providers (including PG Soft, Pragmatic Play, Jili, JDB, and others) may receive certain technical session data necessary to operate their games within the ph896 platform. This data is limited to session tokens and bet records and does not include your full identity or payment information.
ph896 discloses personal data to PAGCOR, AMLC, the NPC, and Philippine law enforcement authorities where required by law, court order, or binding regulatory directive. Such disclosures are made in strict compliance with applicable legal requirements and are limited to what is necessary to fulfill the specific legal obligation.
ph896 does not sell, rent, lease, or exchange your personal data to any third party for that party's own marketing, profiling, or commercial purposes. Your data is used solely to operate and improve the ph896 platform and fulfill our legal obligations.
Some of ph896's service providers — particularly cloud infrastructure and game content providers — may process data on servers located outside the Philippines. Where such cross-border data transfers occur, ph896 ensures they are conducted in accordance with Section 21 of the DPA and NPC Circular No. 16-01, including the application of appropriate safeguards such as contractual clauses that provide the same level of protection as that afforded under Philippine data privacy law.
ph896 does not transfer personal data to countries that do not provide an adequate level of data protection without first implementing appropriate safeguards and, where required, obtaining NPC authorization.
ph896 retains personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected and to comply with applicable legal and regulatory retention requirements. The following retention schedule applies:
| Data Category | Retention Period | Basis |
|---|---|---|
| Account registration data | Duration of account + 5 years post-closure | PAGCOR / AMLC regulatory requirement |
| KYC / identity documents | Duration of account + 5 years post-closure | Anti-Money Laundering Act (RA 9160 as amended) |
| Transaction records | 5 years from transaction date | AMLC / PAGCOR compliance |
| Gaming activity logs | 3 years from session date | PAGCOR dispute resolution requirements |
| Support communications | 3 years from last interaction | Legitimate interest / dispute resolution |
| Marketing consent records | Until consent withdrawn + 1 year | DPA / NPC guidelines |
| Cookie and session data | Up to 13 months | Platform analytics and security |
Upon expiry of the applicable retention period, personal data is securely deleted or anonymized such that it can no longer be associated with an identifiable individual.
ph896 implements and maintains appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect personal data against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. Measures in place include:
Notwithstanding these measures, no internet transmission or electronic storage system is entirely secure. ph896 cannot guarantee absolute security but commits to implementing industry-standard protections and to notifying affected players and the NPC promptly in the event of a personal data breach in accordance with Section 20(f) of the DPA.
Cookies are small text files placed on your device by ph896 when you visit ph896.club. They allow the platform to recognize your device across sessions and store preferences, authentication tokens, and usage analytics. ph896 also uses similar technologies including web beacons and local browser storage for equivalent purposes.
You may adjust your cookie preferences through your browser settings or, where applicable, through the cookie preference center on ph896.club. Disabling non-essential cookies will not prevent you from using the platform but may limit certain personalization features. Note that disabling strictly necessary cookies will prevent login and full use of ph896.
ph896 does not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under the age of 21. The platform is strictly intended for adult users in the Philippines who are 21 years of age or older, in compliance with PAGCOR regulations governing online gaming participation.
Where ph896 discovers that personal data has been collected from an individual under 21 — whether through false age declaration or otherwise — it will immediately close the associated account, delete the personal data collected, void any bonuses, and forfeit any associated balances as described in the Terms & Conditions.
Under the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012, you have the following rights with respect to your personal data held by ph896. To exercise any of these rights, contact our Data Protection Officer through the channels in Section 15. ph896 will respond to verified rights requests within fifteen (15) days.
If you have a concern about how ph896 handles your personal data, we encourage you to contact our Data Protection Officer first to allow us to address the matter directly. We commit to responding to all data privacy complaints within fifteen (15) working days of receipt.
If you are not satisfied with ph896's response, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the National Privacy Commission of the Philippines (NPC). The NPC accepts complaints from Filipino data subjects whose rights under the DPA have been violated. Information on filing a complaint with the NPC is available through government channels.
ph896 reserves the right to update or amend this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in our data processing practices, applicable law, or regulatory requirements. Where changes are material, ph896 will notify registered Players via in-platform notification or email at least fourteen (14) days before the changes take effect, except where immediate implementation is required by law.
The date of the most recent revision is displayed at the top of this Policy. Your continued use of ph896 following the effective date of any amendment constitutes acknowledgment of the revised Policy. We encourage you to review this Policy periodically to stay informed about how ph896 protects your personal data.
For all matters relating to this Privacy Policy, the exercise of your data subject rights, or any concern about ph896's personal data handling practices, please contact ph896's Data Protection Officer through the following channels:
ph896's Data Protection Officer is a designated role responsible for overseeing data privacy compliance and is independent in the performance of data protection duties. All data privacy inquiries are handled confidentially and with priority.
