• Contact Data: Email address, mobile number, and residential address (including city, province, and postal code within the Philippines).
• Financial Data: Payment method details (e.g., GCash account reference, PayMaya account reference, BPI/BDO/Metrobank account details), transaction history, deposit and withdrawal records, and account balance information.

• Consent: Where we rely on your consent (e.g., for marketing communications), you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.

5. Sharing Your Data

bets088 does not sell your personal data. We may share your data with the following categories of recipients, strictly on a need-to-know basis:

• Payment Processors: GCash, PayMaya, BPI, BDO, Metrobank, and other payment service providers, to process your financial transactions.

All third parties with whom bets088 shares personal data are required to handle that data in accordance with applicable privacy laws and our data processing standards.

6. Data Retention

When personal data is no longer required, bets088 will securely delete or anonymise it in accordance with our data retention schedule.

7. Security

bets088 implements appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. These measures include:

• Regular security audits and penetration testing of the Platform
• Segregated storage of player funds, separate from operational accounts

While bets088 takes all reasonable steps to protect your data, no online platform can guarantee absolute security. You are responsible for keeping your account credentials confidential and for notifying us immediately if you suspect any unauthorised access to your account.
