At ph02, your personal data is handled with the same care we put into every part of the platform. This Privacy Policy explains what information ph02 collects, why we collect it, how we use and protect it, and what rights you have under Philippine data privacy law. Please read it carefully — it matters.
ph02 ("ph02", "we", "us", "our") operates the online gaming platform accessible at ph02.one. We are committed to protecting the privacy and personal data of every player, visitor, and user who interacts with the ph02 platform ("you", "your").

If you believe a minor has registered on ph02, please contact support immediately.
ph02 is committed to preventing underage gambling. Age verification is conducted for all accounts. Parents and guardians are encouraged to use parental control tools to prevent minors from accessing online gambling platforms.
Some of ph02's service providers — including game suppliers and technology infrastructure providers — may be located outside the Philippines. Where personal data is transferred to a recipient in another country, ph02 ensures that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your data, including contractual clauses that require the recipient to apply data protection standards equivalent to those required by the Data Privacy Act of 2012.
ph02 will not transfer your personal data to a country that does not provide an adequate level of data protection without first implementing appropriate safeguards and, where required, obtaining NPC approval for the transfer.
ph02 may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our data processing practices, applicable law, or NPC guidance. The date of the most recent revision is displayed at the top of this page. Where changes are material, ph02 will notify registered players via in-platform notification or the mobile number registered to their account prior to the changes taking effect.
