At 88phx, your personal data belongs to you. This Privacy Policy explains in clear, straightforward terms what information we collect when you use the platform, why we collect it, how we store and protect it, who we share it with, and what rights you have under Philippine data privacy law.
This Privacy Policy applies to all personal information collected, processed, stored, or transmitted by 88phx in connection with the operation of the 88phx online gaming platform accessible at 88phx.org. It governs information collected from all visitors to the platform, whether or not they are registered account holders.
By accessing or using the 88phx platform — including browsing the website, creating an account, making a deposit, placing a wager, claiming a bonus, or contacting customer support — you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy and consent to the collection and use of your personal information as described herein.
This Privacy Policy is issued in compliance with the Republic Act No. 10173, also known as the Data Privacy Act of 2012 of the Philippines, its Implementing Rules and Regulations, and the relevant issuances of the National Privacy Commission (NPC) of the Philippines. Where applicable, 88phx also observes internationally recognised data protection principles consistent with the regulatory framework of the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR).
This Privacy Policy should be read alongside the 88phx Terms and Conditions, which set out the broader contractual relationship between 88phx and registered players.
For the purposes of the Data Privacy Act of 2012 and this Privacy Policy, 88phx is the personal information controller in respect of all personal data collected through the 88phx platform. As the data controller, 88phx determines the purposes for which and the manner in which personal data is processed.
88phx has designated a Data Privacy Officer (DPO) responsible for overseeing compliance with applicable data privacy laws, responding to data subject requests, and managing privacy-related complaints. Queries and formal requests concerning this Privacy Policy or your personal data may be directed to the 88phx Data Privacy Officer at [email protected]. Please include "Data Privacy Request" in the subject line of your communication.

Under the Data Privacy Act of 2012, 88phx processes personal information only where a valid legal basis exists. The legal bases applicable to 88phx's processing activities are:
88phx uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to operate and improve the platform. A cookie is a small text file stored on your device by your browser when you visit a website. 88phx uses the following categories of cookies:
You may manage your cookie preferences through your browser settings. Disabling certain categories of cookies may affect your ability to use some features of the 88phx platform. For guidance on managing cookies in your specific browser, consult your browser's help documentation.
88phx does not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties for commercial purposes. Personal data is shared only in the following circumstances and only to the extent necessary for the stated purpose:
88phx retains personal information only for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by applicable law. The following retention periods apply:
Following the expiry of the applicable retention period, personal data is securely deleted or anonymised in accordance with recognised data destruction standards.
88phx implements a comprehensive range of technical and organisational security measures designed to protect your personal information against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, loss, or destruction. These measures include:
Notwithstanding these measures, no data transmission over the internet or electronic storage system is unconditionally secure. 88phx cannot guarantee absolute security but commits to implementing and maintaining security measures consistent with industry best practices and applicable Philippine regulatory requirements.
The 88phx platform primarily stores and processes personal data within the Philippines. Where personal data is transferred to servers or service providers located outside the Philippines — for example, in connection with cloud infrastructure, game software delivery, or cybersecurity services — 88phx ensures that such transfers occur only in compliance with the Data Privacy Act of 2012 and the cross-border data transfer requirements issued by the National Privacy Commission.
Specifically, 88phx requires that any overseas recipient of Philippine resident personal data provides an adequate level of data protection equivalent to that afforded under Philippine law, either through contractual safeguards (including binding data processing agreements incorporating the NPC's standard contractual clauses), adequacy determinations, or other approved transfer mechanisms.
Players who wish to obtain further information about the safeguards in place for international data transfers may contact 88phx's Data Privacy Officer at [email protected].
As a data subject under Philippine law, you have the following rights in respect of your personal data held by 88phx:
To exercise any of the above rights, please submit a written request to [email protected] with the subject line "Data Privacy Request." 88phx will acknowledge your request within 3 business days and provide a substantive response within 30 days, or notify you if additional time is required in complex cases.
The 88phx platform is strictly intended for adults aged 21 years and above, in accordance with PAGCOR regulations and Philippine gaming law. 88phx does not knowingly collect personal information from individuals below the age of 21.
If 88phx discovers or is notified that personal data has been collected from an individual below the minimum age, 88phx will immediately close the associated account, delete all personal information relating to that individual, and refund any deposits made by that individual through the original payment method — provided the identity of the minor can be verified.
If you are a parent or guardian and believe that a minor in your care has registered an account with 88phx, please contact 88phx support immediately at [email protected].
The 88phx platform may display informational references to third-party services, payment providers, or game software providers in the context of describing platform features. This Privacy Policy applies exclusively to personal data processed by 88phx in connection with the 88phx platform.
Third-party services engaged by 88phx — including payment processors such as GCash and PayMaya, and game software providers — operate under their own privacy policies and data protection frameworks. 88phx is not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party services and encourages players to review the privacy policies of any third-party services they use in connection with their 88phx account.
When you make a payment via GCash or another third-party payment provider, your payment credentials and transaction data are processed directly by that provider in accordance with its own terms. 88phx receives only the confirmation data necessary to credit your account — 88phx does not store your GCash PIN, full bank account numbers, or card CVV codes.
88phx reserves the right to update or amend this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in applicable law, regulatory requirements, platform features, or data processing practices. The revised Privacy Policy will be published on the 88phx platform with an updated effective date.
Where an amendment involves a material change to how 88phx processes your personal data — particularly a change that could affect your privacy rights or your ability to control your information — 88phx will provide advance notice through an in-platform notification or an email to your registered address before the change takes effect.
Continued use of the 88phx platform following the effective date of any amendment constitutes acknowledgement of the updated Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with an amendment, you may exercise your right to erasure or account closure as described in Sections 11 and 14 of the 88phx Terms and Conditions.
For all privacy-related queries, data subject access requests, or formal complaints concerning 88phx's handling of your personal information, please contact the 88phx Data Privacy Officer:
88phx acknowledges all data privacy requests within 3 business days. Substantive responses to access requests, erasure requests, and formal complaints are provided within 30 days of receipt. Where a request requires additional time due to complexity, 88phx will notify you of the expected timeline.
If you are not satisfied with 88phx's response to your privacy complaint, you have the right to escalate your concern to the National Privacy Commission of the Philippines (NPC), which is the designated supervisory authority for data privacy matters in the Philippines. The NPC accepts complaints from data subjects regarding alleged violations of the Data Privacy Act of 2012.
Six core data protection principles that guide how 88phx handles the personal information of every Filipino player on the platform.
Every piece of data you send to 88phx — from your login credentials to your GCash deposit confirmation — travels over a 256-bit SSL-encrypted connection. No one on the same network, whether public WiFi in a Makati café or a shared connection in Cebu, can intercept it in transit.
88phx collects only the personal information it genuinely needs to operate the platform, verify identities, process payments, and comply with PAGCOR and AMLA regulations. We do not collect data speculatively or hold it beyond legally mandated retention periods.
88phx does not sell, rent, or commercially trade your personal information to any third party for advertising or marketing purposes. Your data is used solely in the context of operating and improving the 88phx platform and meeting legal obligations.
This Privacy Policy is written in direct compliance with Republic Act No. 10173, the Data Privacy Act of 2012, and the Implementing Rules and Regulations issued by the National Privacy Commission of the Philippines. Your rights as a Filipino data subject are fully recognised and honoured.
88phx does not hold your data indefinitely. Retention periods are defined by regulatory requirements — primarily the five-year record-keeping obligations under AMLA — and personal data is securely deleted or anonymised once the relevant period expires.
In the unlikely event of a personal data breach that could affect your rights, 88phx is committed to notifying affected players and the National Privacy Commission within the timeframes required by Philippine law — not after weeks of internal deliberation, but promptly and transparently.
88phx handles your personal information with the same care and accountability that Filipino players deserve. Now that you know how your data is protected, explore the platform, log in to your account, or review our other policy documents for a complete picture of your rights.
