Privacy Policy — 88j Casino

This Privacy Policy ("Policy") describes how 88j Casino ("88j," "we," "us," "our") collects, uses, stores, protects, and discloses the personal information of users ("Player," "User," "you") who access or use the 88j Casino platform available at 88j.lat, including all associated game lobbies, account management features, payment services, customer support channels, and any related digital services.

This Policy is issued pursuant to and in compliance with Republic Act No. 10173, the Data Privacy Act of 2012 of the Philippines ("DPA") and its Implementing Rules and Regulations, as well as the applicable regulations of the National Privacy Commission ("NPC") and the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation ("PAGCOR"). Where applicable, this Policy also reflects obligations under Republic Act No. 9160, the Anti-Money Laundering Act of the Philippines ("AMLA"), as amended.

By registering an account at 88j Casino, depositing funds, or otherwise using our platform, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Policy and consent to the processing of your personal data as described herein. If you do not agree to this Policy, you must refrain from using the 88j Casino platform.

For the purposes of the Data Privacy Act of 2012, 88j Casino is the Personal Information Controller ("PIC") in respect of all personal data collected through the 88j.lat platform. As PIC, 88j Casino determines the purposes and means of processing your personal data and is responsible for ensuring that all processing activities comply with applicable Philippine data privacy law.

88j Casino has appointed a designated Data Protection Officer ("DPO") responsible for overseeing compliance with this Policy, managing data subject requests, and serving as the primary point of contact for data privacy matters. Contact details for the DPO are set out in Section 15 of this Policy.

88j Casino collects the following categories of personal data, depending on how you interact with the platform:

88j Casino collects personal data through the following means:

• Directly from you — when you complete the registration form, submit KYC documents, contact support, or interact with any feature of the 88j Casino platform that requires you to provide information.
• Automatically — through your use of the 88j Casino platform, which generates technical and session data such as IP address, device identifiers, and gaming activity records as described in Section 3.
• Through cookies and similar technologies — as described in Section 8 of this Policy.
• From payment service providers — GCash, Maya, and linked Philippine banks confirm transaction status and payment reference details as part of the deposit and withdrawal processing flow.
• From identity verification service providers — third-party KYC technology partners confirm the authenticity and validity of submitted identification documents as part of the 88j Casino verification process.
• From regulatory and law enforcement authorities — PAGCOR, the AMLC (Anti-Money Laundering Council), or other competent Philippine authorities may provide information relevant to a specific account as part of compliance obligations.

88j Casino processes your personal data for the following purposes:

Under the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012, all personal data processing must be based on at least one of the following legal criteria. 88j Casino processes your data on the following bases:

• Contractual Necessity: Processing required to establish and perform the contract with you — your 88j Casino account and our Terms & Conditions. This covers account creation, payment processing, game delivery, and customer support.
• Legal Obligation: Processing required to comply with Philippine law, including PAGCOR regulatory requirements, AMLA reporting obligations, tax law, and any lawful order from a competent authority.
• Legitimate Interests: Processing necessary for 88j Casino's legitimate business interests where these are not overridden by your rights — including fraud prevention, platform security, and aggregated analytics for service improvement.
• Consent: Where we rely on your consent — for example, for marketing communications or certain non-essential cookies — we will request consent explicitly and separately. You may withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of prior processing.

88j Casino does not sell your personal data to any third party. We share your personal data only with the following categories of recipients and only to the extent strictly necessary for the stated purpose:

88j Casino uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to operate and improve the platform. Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you access the 88j.lat website. They are used for the following purposes:

• Essential Cookies: Strictly necessary for the 88j Casino platform to function — including session authentication, shopping cart functionality for deposits, and security token management. These cookies cannot be disabled without making the platform non-functional.
• Functional Cookies: Remember your preferences such as language settings, game lobby view, and last visited sections of the platform to improve your experience.
• Analytics Cookies: Collect anonymized, aggregated data about how Players navigate and use the 88j Casino platform — which game categories are visited most, how long sessions typically last, and where users exit the platform. This data is used solely to improve the 88j product.
• Security Cookies: Detect suspicious session behavior, support fraud prevention systems, and assist in identifying unauthorized access attempts.

You may configure your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being set. Disabling essential cookies will impair your ability to use the 88j Casino platform, including logging in and processing payments. Disabling functional or analytics cookies will not affect your ability to play but may reduce some personalization features.

88j Casino does not use cookies to build advertising profiles or to track your activity across third-party websites for marketing purposes.

88j Casino retains personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by applicable Philippine law. The following retention principles apply:

• Active Account Data: Retained for the full duration of your active 88j Casino account plus a minimum of five (5) years following account closure, in compliance with PAGCOR record-keeping requirements and AMLA obligations.
• KYC & Identity Documents: Retained for a minimum of five (5) years from the date of collection, as required by the AMLA and PAGCOR regulations. Following this period, KYC documents are securely deleted unless an active legal obligation requires further retention.
• Transaction Records: Retained for a minimum of five (5) years as required by AMLA and PAGCOR. Transaction records may be retained for longer periods if subject to an active investigation or legal proceedings.
• Communications Data: Customer support records are retained for three (3) years from the date of the interaction, unless required longer for dispute resolution or legal proceedings.
• Marketing Preferences: Opt-out records are retained indefinitely to prevent future unsolicited marketing contact.
• Technical & Device Data: Session logs and IP records are retained for twelve (12) months, except where retained longer for active fraud investigations or security incidents.

Following the expiry of applicable retention periods, personal data is securely deleted or anonymized in a manner that prevents reconstruction of the original data.

88j Casino implements technical and organizational measures appropriate to the risk level of the personal data we process. Our security framework includes the following controls:

• Transport Layer Security: All data transmitted between your device and 88j Casino servers is encrypted using TLS 1.2 or above. The 88j.lat domain is served exclusively over HTTPS.
• Data Encryption at Rest: Sensitive personal data stored on 88j Casino servers — including KYC documents and financial identifiers — is encrypted at rest using industry-standard encryption algorithms.
• Access Controls: Access to personal data is restricted to 88j Casino personnel and authorized service providers who require the data to perform their specific functions. Access is controlled through role-based permissions, multi-factor authentication, and access logging.
• Password Hashing: Account passwords are irreversibly hashed using a strong cryptographic hashing function with individual salts. 88j Casino staff cannot read your password under any circumstances.
• Intrusion Detection: The 88j Casino platform is monitored by automated security systems designed to detect and alert on unauthorized access attempts, unusual data access patterns, and potential security incidents.
• Penetration Testing: 88j Casino undergoes periodic third-party security assessments to identify and remediate vulnerabilities in the platform's security architecture.

In the event of a personal data breach that is likely to pose a risk to your rights and freedoms, 88j Casino will notify the National Privacy Commission within seventy-two (72) hours of becoming aware of the breach, as required by the Data Privacy Act. Affected individuals will be notified as soon as reasonably practicable where the breach is likely to result in a high risk to their rights.

Under the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012, you have the following rights with respect to your personal data held by 88j Casino. These rights may be exercised by contacting our Data Protection Officer as set out in Section 15.

88j Casino will respond to all data subject rights requests within thirty (30) calendar days of receipt. Complex or multiple requests may require up to sixty (60) days. We will communicate any extension to you within the initial 30-day period. To exercise any of the above rights, please contact our DPO using the details in Section 15. We may be required to verify your identity before processing your request.

The 88j Casino platform is strictly intended for adults aged twenty-one (21) years and above in compliance with PAGCOR regulations and Philippine law. 88j Casino does not knowingly collect, process, or store personal data of individuals below the age of 21.

If you are a parent or guardian and believe that a person under 21 has registered an account at 88j Casino or otherwise provided personal data to our platform, please contact our Data Protection Officer immediately using the contact details in Section 15. Upon verification of the report, 88j Casino will promptly close the account and delete all personal data associated with it.

Where 88j Casino engages service providers whose infrastructure is located outside the Philippines — for example, cloud infrastructure providers or game software platforms — your personal data may be transferred to and processed in jurisdictions outside the Republic of the Philippines.

Any such international transfer of personal data is made only where 88j Casino has ensured that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your data at a standard equivalent to the protections afforded under the Philippine Data Privacy Act. These safeguards may include contractual clauses that bind the recipient to DPA-equivalent data protection standards, or where the destination jurisdiction has been assessed to provide an adequate level of data protection.

Where international transfers are made to game software providers, these providers are certified and operate under their own regulatory frameworks which include data protection obligations. 88j Casino does not transfer sensitive personal information such as KYC documents internationally except where strictly required for identity verification services and where appropriate contractual protections are in place.

88j Casino reserves the right to update or amend this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our data processing practices, Philippine law, PAGCOR requirements, NPC guidance, or our platform features. All amendments will be published on this page at 88j.lat/privacy-policy with an updated "Last Updated" date.

Material changes to this Policy — meaning changes that significantly affect your rights or how we use your personal data — will be communicated to you via a notification on the 88j Casino platform and, where practicable, via SMS or email to your registered contact details. Material changes will take effect no earlier than fourteen (14) days after publication of the revised Policy.

Your continued use of the 88j Casino platform following the effective date of any revised Policy constitutes your acknowledgment of the changes. If you do not agree to any revised Policy, you should stop using the platform and may request account closure in accordance with the process described in our Terms & Conditions.
