pph44 respects the privacy of all Filipino players and is committed to protecting your personal information in accordance with the Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act No. 10173) and all applicable Philippine data protection regulations. This Privacy Policy sets out the types of personal data we collect, the purposes for which we process it, the parties with whom we may share it, the security measures we employ, and your rights as a data subject.

pph44 operates as an online casino and sports betting platform serving customers primarily located in the Philippines, including Metro Manila, Cebu City, Davao City, Quezon City, Makati, and other regions across the Philippine archipelago.

This Policy applies to personal information collected from all users of the Platform, whether or not they hold an active pph44 account. If you do not agree with the terms of this Privacy Policy, you should immediately discontinue your use of the Platform.

This means that pph44 determines the purposes and means of processing your personal data. As data controller, pph44 is responsible for ensuring that all data processing activities comply with applicable privacy laws and that your personal data is kept secure.

If you have questions about how pph44 processes your personal data, or if you wish to exercise any of your data protection rights, please contact our Data Protection Officer using the contact details provided in Section 15 of this Policy.

pph44 employs industry-standard technical and organizational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. Our security measures include:

• 256-bit SSL/TLS encryption for all data transmitted between your device and pph44 servers.
• Secure data centers with physical access controls, fire suppression, and redundant power supplies.

While pph44 takes all reasonable precautions to safeguard your data, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure. pph44 cannot guarantee absolute security but will notify you promptly in the event of any data breach that poses a risk to your rights and freedoms.

pph44 primarily stores and processes personal data within the Philippines to comply with local data residency requirements. However, some of our third-party service providers (such as game developers, payment processors, and cloud infrastructure providers) may be located outside the Philippines, including in jurisdictions such as Malta, the United Kingdom, Singapore, and the United States.

Where personal data is transferred internationally, pph44 ensures that appropriate safeguards are in place, such as standard contractual clauses, adequacy decisions, or other mechanisms recognized under Philippine data protection law. These safeguards ensure that your data receives a level of protection equivalent to that provided under Philippine law.

pph44 retains your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, comply with legal and regulatory obligations, and resolve disputes. The specific retention periods are as follows:

• Active Accounts: Personal data is retained for the duration of your account's active status plus an additional period as required by law.
• Closed Accounts: After account closure, pph44 retains transaction records, identity verification documents, and gaming history for a minimum of five (5) years as required by Philippine anti-money laundering regulations.
• Marketing Data: If you opt out of marketing communications, your contact information is retained only to ensure that we do not contact you again.
• Self-Exclusion Records: Records of self-exclusion requests are retained indefinitely to prevent re-registration by excluded players.
• Technical Logs: Server logs, IP addresses, and device identifiers are typically retained for six (6) to twelve (12) months unless required for fraud investigation or legal proceedings.

After the applicable retention period expires, personal data is securely deleted or anonymized such that it can no longer be linked to an identifiable individual.
