Registration details, transaction records, and device information collected to operate your account securely.
To verify your identity, process payments in PHP, and improve your experience on the ph56 platform.

You may request access, correction, or deletion of your personal data at any time by contacting our support team.
ph56 is committed to protecting the privacy and personal data of every player who registers and uses our platform. This Privacy Policy sets out in plain Philippine English exactly what information we collect, why we collect it, how we store and protect it, and the circumstances under which it may be shared with third parties. By creating an account on ph56 and using any of our services — including sports betting, jackpot games, and the ph56 mobile app — you acknowledge that you have read and understood this policy. We operate in full compliance with the Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act No. 10173) of the Philippines and all related implementing rules and regulations issued by the National Privacy Commission. If you have any questions about how your data is handled, you are welcome to contact us using the details provided in your account dashboard at any time.
When you register for a ph56 account, we collect personal information that includes your full legal name, date of birth, Philippine mobile number, and a valid government-issued ID number for age and identity verification purposes. During the deposit and withdrawal process, we collect payment-related details such as your GCash or Maya account reference and Philippine bank account information where applicable — we do not store full card numbers or complete payment credentials on our servers. As you use the platform, we automatically collect technical and behavioural data including your device type, operating system, browser or app version, IP address, session timestamps, pages visited, and betting activity, all of which help us maintain platform security and improve your experience. We may also collect information you voluntarily provide when contacting our support team, submitting a complaint, or participating in any survey or feedback programme. All data collected is limited to what is genuinely necessary for the operation of a licensed online gaming service for Filipino players.
The primary purpose of collecting your personal data is to create and maintain your ph56 account, verify your eligibility to participate in online gaming under Philippine law, and process your deposits and withdrawals accurately in Philippine pesos. We use your identity and age verification data to comply with our obligations under Philippine gaming regulations, including the requirement that all registered players be at least 21 years of age. Technical and behavioural data is used to detect and prevent fraud, identify suspicious account activity, maintain platform security, and ensure fair play for all members across our sports betting and jackpot game offerings. With your consent, we may also use your contact information to send you relevant platform notifications, account updates, or information about promotions — you can opt out of marketing communications at any time through your account settings. We will never use your personal data for purposes beyond those listed in this policy without first obtaining your explicit consent.
ph56 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to any third party for commercial or marketing purposes — this is an absolute commitment we make to every Filipino player on our platform. We share data only with a strictly limited set of trusted service providers who assist us in operating the platform, including our licensed payment processors (GCash, Maya, and partnered Philippine banks) and identity verification services, all of whom are bound by confidentiality agreements and data processing agreements consistent with Philippine data privacy law. We may also disclose your information to the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR), the National Privacy Commission, or other regulatory and law enforcement authorities when required to do so under applicable Philippine law or a valid court order. In the event that ph56 undergoes a business restructuring or change of ownership, your data may be transferred to the successor entity, but only under the same privacy protections outlined in this policy. Any third party that receives your data from ph56 is permitted to use it solely for the specific purpose for which it was shared and is prohibited from any further processing or onward transfer without our written consent.
ph56 uses cookies and similar technologies on our web platform to enable essential site functionality such as maintaining your login session, remembering your language and display preferences, and keeping your bet slip active during a session. We also use performance cookies to understand how players navigate the platform so that we can identify and fix usability issues and improve load times on mobile devices, which are the primary access method for most Filipino players. Strictly necessary cookies are always active as they are required for the platform to function — they cannot be disabled without disrupting your ability to log in and place bets. Analytics cookies are used in aggregated, anonymised form and do not identify you personally; you may opt out of these through your browser settings or the cookie preference centre accessible from the platform footer. We do not use third-party advertising cookies or cross-site tracking technologies that would allow external advertisers to build a profile of your browsing behaviour beyond the ph56 platform itself.
ph56 retains your personal data for as long as your account remains active and for a period of five years after account closure, in line with the record-keeping obligations imposed by Philippine gaming regulations and tax law. Transaction records, including deposit and withdrawal histories, are retained for a minimum of seven years to satisfy anti-money laundering compliance requirements under the Anti-Money Laundering Act of the Philippines. Identity verification documents submitted during the KYC process are retained for the same regulatory minimum period and are stored in encrypted format with strictly controlled access. Once the applicable retention period has expired, your data is securely deleted or anonymised so that it can no longer be linked to your identity. If you request the deletion of your account and there is no regulatory obligation requiring us to retain your data, we will process the deletion within 30 business days of receiving your verified request.
ph56 implements a comprehensive set of technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, alteration, or disclosure. All data transmitted between your device and our platform is protected using industry-standard TLS encryption, and all sensitive data stored on our servers is encrypted at rest using current best-practice encryption standards. Access to personal data within ph56 is restricted on a strict need-to-know basis, and all staff with access to player data undergo regular data privacy and security training. We conduct periodic security assessments and vulnerability testing of our platform infrastructure to identify and remediate any potential weaknesses before they can be exploited. While we take every reasonable measure to protect your data, no internet-based system is completely immune to risk — if you suspect any unauthorised access to your ph56 account, please contact our support team immediately so that we can take action to secure your account.
As a data subject under the Data Privacy Act of 2012, Filipino players have the right to be informed about how their personal data is collected and used, which is the primary purpose of this Privacy Policy. You have the right to access a copy of the personal data we hold about you, and to request a correction of any inaccurate or incomplete information — requests of this nature can be submitted to our support team via the contact details in your account dashboard. You have the right to request the erasure or blocking of your personal data where it is no longer necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, subject to any overriding legal or regulatory retention obligations. You also have the right to object to the processing of your data for direct marketing purposes, and to withdraw any consent you have previously given at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing that occurred before the withdrawal. If you believe your data privacy rights have been violated, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the National Privacy Commission of the Philippines at privacy.gov.ph.
ph56 may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our data practices, platform features, or applicable Philippine law and regulation. When we make material changes to this policy, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page and, where the changes are significant, notify registered members via their registered Philippine mobile number or through an in-platform notification. Your continued use of the ph56 platform following the publication of an updated Privacy Policy constitutes your acceptance of the changes — if you do not agree with any update, you should stop using the platform and contact our support team to discuss your options. We recommend bookmarking this page and reviewing it periodically, particularly if you continue to use ph56 after receiving a notification of an update. Previous versions of this policy are not publicly archived but may be requested from our support team for reference purposes.
