ph265 operates in the Philippines and is committed to processing personal data in a

For purposes of applicable Philippine data privacy law, ph265 acts as the

Commission that the recipient country provides an adequate level of data protection.
Where the primary data processing infrastructure of ph265 is located within the
Philippines, all personal data remains subject to Philippine data privacy law.
Any offshore processing is disclosed in this Policy and conducted only with appropriate
protective measures in place.

which it was collected or as required by applicable law. The following general
retention periods apply:

your personal data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, alteration, disclosure,

servers is encrypted using 256-bit SSL/TLS protocols. Sensitive data stored in
ph265's systems is encrypted at rest.

Access Controls: Access to personal data is restricted to ph265
personnel and authorised third-party processors who have a legitimate need to access

Your Responsibilities: No security system is completely impenetrable.

The ph265 Platform is strictly intended for use by adults aged twenty-one (21) years
and above, in accordance with PAGCOR's minimum age requirements for online gaming
participation in the Philippines. ph265 does not knowingly collect personal data from
individuals under the age of 21.
If ph265 discovers or is notified that personal data has been collected from a person
under the age of 21, the relevant Account will be immediately suspended, all data
associated with the Account will be securely deleted, and any funds associated with
the Account will be handled in accordance with applicable law and PAGCOR requirements.
Parents or guardians who believe that a minor has registered or used a ph265 Account
should contact ph265 customer support immediately. ph265 will investigate and take
appropriate remedial action without undue delay.
The ph265 Platform integrates with third-party payment and gaming services to deliver
its full range of features. These third-party providers — including GCash, PayMaya, BPI,
BDO, Metrobank, UnionBank, and JILI Gaming — are independent Personal Information
Controllers subject to their own privacy policies and data processing practices.
ph265 is not responsible for the privacy practices of independent third-party service
providers. Before using any third-party service integrated with ph265, Members are
encouraged to review the applicable third-party privacy policy to understand how their
personal data is handled beyond the ph265 Platform.
ph265 engages all third-party data processors under written data processing agreements
that impose data protection obligations consistent with the Data Privacy Act of 2012
and require processors to implement appropriate security measures.
ph265 reserves the right to update or amend this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect
changes in legal requirements, regulatory guidance, Platform features, or our data
processing practices. When material changes are made to this Policy, ph265 will provide
advance notice to all registered Members via their registered mobile number or by
displaying a prominent notice on the Platform.
The updated Privacy Policy will specify the date on which the changes take effect.
Continued use of the ph265 Platform after the effective date of any amendment
constitutes acknowledgement of the updated Policy. If you do not agree with the
updated Policy, you must cease using the Platform and request Account closure before
the effective date of the changes.
This Privacy Policy was last reviewed and updated on 1 January 2026.
ph265 recommends that all Members review this Policy periodically.
