We are committed to protecting the privacy and personal data of all users who interact with our platform.

1.2 For the purposes of this Policy, 17phcash acts as the data controller in respect of the personal information you provide to us. This means we determine the purposes and means by which your personal data is processed.

1.3 If you have any questions about this Policy or about how we handle your personal data, please contact our Data Privacy Officer via our 24/7 live chat support or by email at [email protected].

2. Data We Collect

2.1 Registration Data. When you create a 17phcash account, we collect your full legal name, date of birth, email address, Philippine mobile number, and a username and password of your choosing. This information is required to establish and maintain your account.

2.2 Identity Verification Data. To comply with our legal obligations and to verify that you meet the 21+ age requirement, we may request copies of government-issued identification (such as a Philippine passport, driver's licence, or SSS/UMID card), proof of address, and proof of payment method ownership.

2.3 Financial Data. When you make deposits or request withdrawals, we collect transaction details including the payment method used (e.g., GCash, PayMaya, BPI, BDO, Metrobank, Visa, Mastercard), transaction amounts in Philippine Peso (PHP / ₱), and transaction timestamps. We do not store full card numbers or GCash PINs on our servers.

• Legal Obligation: Processing is required to comply with applicable laws, including anti-money laundering regulations, age verification requirements, and gaming regulatory obligations.
• Legitimate Interests: Processing is necessary for our legitimate interests in operating a secure, fair, and commercially viable gaming platform, provided those interests are not overridden by your rights and interests.

5. Sharing Your Data

5.1 17phcash does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to third parties for their own commercial purposes. We may share your data with the following categories of recipients only to the extent necessary for the purposes described in this Policy:

• Payment Processors: GCash, PayMaya, BPI, BDO, Metrobank, Visa, and Mastercard, to process your deposits and withdrawals. Each processor operates under its own privacy policy and data protection obligations.

• IT & Platform Service Providers: Technology partners who provide hosting, infrastructure, security monitoring, and analytics services necessary to operate the 17phcash platform.
• Regulatory Authorities: Government agencies, law enforcement bodies, and gaming regulators where we are legally required to disclose information, including in connection with anti-money laundering investigations or court orders.
• Professional Advisers: Lawyers, auditors, and accountants who provide professional services to 17phcash, subject to strict confidentiality obligations.

5.2 All third parties with whom we share personal data are required to handle that data in accordance with applicable data protection laws and to implement appropriate security measures. We do not permit our service providers to use your data for their own purposes beyond the specific services they provide to us.

5.3 In the event that 17phcash undergoes a business restructuring, merger, or acquisition, your personal data may be transferred to the successor entity as part of that transaction. We will notify you of any such transfer and the applicable privacy terms before your data is subject to a different privacy policy.

6. Cookies & Tracking Technologies

6.1 17phcash uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your experience on the platform. A cookie is a small text file placed on your device when you visit our website. We use the following categories of cookies:

• Strictly Necessary Cookies: These are essential for the platform to function correctly. They enable core features such as account login, session management, and security. These cookies cannot be disabled without affecting platform functionality.

• Functional Cookies: These cookies remember your preferences, such as your preferred language or display settings, to provide a more personalised experience on return visits.
• Marketing Cookies: Where you have consented, these cookies track your browsing activity to help us deliver relevant promotional content. You may withdraw consent for marketing cookies at any time.

7.2 Once the applicable retention period has expired, your personal data will be securely deleted or anonymised so that it can no longer be associated with you. Where anonymisation is not technically feasible, data will be securely destroyed.

8. Your Rights

In complex cases, we may extend this period by a further thirty (30) days, in which case we will notify you of the extension and the reasons for it.

8.3 We may need to verify your identity before processing a data rights request. This is to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to or altered by an unauthorised person.

9. Data Security

9.1 17phcash implements a comprehensive set of technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, destruction, or disclosure. These measures include:

• Encryption of sensitive data at rest, including financial information and identity documents;
• Role-based access controls limiting staff access to personal data on a need-to-know basis;
• Regular security audits, vulnerability assessments, and penetration testing;

9.2 While we take all reasonable steps to protect your personal data, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security, and you use the platform at your own risk. You are responsible for keeping your account credentials confidential and for notifying us immediately if you suspect unauthorised access to your account.

9.3 In the event of a personal data breach that is likely to result in a risk to your rights and freedoms, 17phcash will notify the relevant regulatory authority and, where required, affected players, in accordance with applicable data breach notification obligations.

10.2 If you are a parent or guardian and believe that your child has registered on 17phcash or provided us with personal data without your consent, please contact our support team immediately via live chat. We will investigate and take appropriate action, including account closure and data deletion, as quickly as possible.
