What This Policy Covers

This Privacy Policy applies to all personal information collected by ph897 when you visit our website, register an account, make a deposit or withdrawal, place a bet, or contact our support team. It covers data collected through our website at ph897.bet and through any mobile-optimised version of the platform. By using our services, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this policy. If you do not agree with any part of this policy, please do not use the platform. We update this policy from time to time, and the most current version will always be available on this page.

1. Information We Collect

When you register an account with ph897, we collect personal information including your full name, date of birth, email address, mobile number, and residential address in the Philippines. During the identity verification process, we may also collect a copy of a government-issued ID such as a Philippine passport, driver's licence, or SSS/UMID card. When you make deposits or withdrawals, we collect transaction details including GCash account references or bank account information as required to process payments in PHP. We also collect technical data automatically when you use the platform, including your IP address, device type, browser type, operating system, and session activity logs. This technical data helps us maintain platform security, detect fraud, and improve the overall user experience for Filipino players.

2. How We Use Your Information

ph897 uses your personal information primarily to operate and maintain your account, process deposits and withdrawals in Philippine pesos, and verify your identity in compliance with applicable regulations. We use your contact details to send you important account notifications, security alerts, and responses to your support enquiries. Transaction data is used to process payments accurately and to maintain financial records as required. Technical and usage data is used to monitor platform performance, detect suspicious activity, and protect the integrity of the platform for all users. We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to any third party for marketing purposes — your data stays within the ph897 platform ecosystem.

3. Sharing of Information

ph897 may share your personal information with trusted third-party service providers who assist us in operating the platform, including payment processors such as GCash and partner banks that facilitate PHP transactions. These providers are contractually obligated to handle your data securely and only for the specific purposes for which it was shared. We may also disclose your information to regulatory authorities or law enforcement agencies if required to do so by applicable Philippine law or a valid legal order. In the event of a business transfer or merger, your data may be transferred to the successor entity, subject to the same privacy protections described in this policy. We will never share your personal information with unrelated third parties for advertising or commercial profiling purposes.

4. Data Retention

We retain your personal information for as long as your account remains active and for a reasonable period thereafter as required by applicable regulations and our internal compliance obligations. Identity verification documents and transaction records may be retained for a minimum period as mandated by financial regulations applicable to online gaming platforms serving the Philippines market. If you request account closure, we will deactivate your account and cease active use of your personal data, but certain records may be retained in archived form for legal and compliance purposes. You may contact our support team at [email protected] to enquire about the specific retention period applicable to your data. Once the retention period has expired, your personal data will be securely deleted or anonymised.

5. Cookies and Tracking

ph897 uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to maintain your login session, remember your preferences, and analyse how the platform is used. Essential cookies are required for the platform to function correctly and cannot be disabled. Analytical cookies help us understand which features are most used and where improvements can be made, but they do not identify you personally. You can manage your cookie preferences through your browser settings at any time, though disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of the platform. We do not use third-party advertising cookies or share cookie data with external advertising networks.

6. Your Rights

As a user of ph897, you have the right to access the personal information we hold about you, to request corrections to any inaccurate data, and to request deletion of your data subject to our legal retention obligations. You may also request that we restrict the processing of your data in certain circumstances, or object to processing where it is based on our legitimate interests.

We are committed to handling all data rights requests fairly and transparently, in line with our obligations to Filipino players and applicable data protection principles.

7. Security Measures

All data transmitted between your device and our platform is encrypted using secure protocols. Access to personal data within our organisation is restricted to authorised personnel who require it to perform their job functions. We conduct regular security reviews and maintain incident response procedures to address any potential data breaches promptly. In the unlikely event of a data breach that affects your personal information, we will notify you and the relevant authorities as required by applicable regulations.

8. Children's Privacy

ph897 is strictly an adult platform intended for users aged 21 and above. We do not knowingly collect personal information from individuals under the age of 21. If we become aware that a minor has registered an account or provided personal information, we will immediately close the account and delete all associated data. Parents and guardians who believe their child may have accessed the platform are encouraged to contact us at [email protected] so we can take prompt action. We take our responsibility to protect minors seriously and maintain robust age verification procedures as part of our registration process.
