ph177 Privacy Policy –
How We Handle Your Personal Data

1 Introduction

ph177 ("we", "us", "the platform") operates the online gaming platform accessible at ph177.vu. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and share personal information in connection with your registration and use of ph177. It applies to all players who access the platform from the Philippines.

By creating an account on ph177 or continuing to use the platform after this policy has been updated, you confirm that you have read and understood how we handle your data. This policy should be read alongside our Terms & Conditions and Responsible Gaming guidelines.

We take our responsibility to handle your personal data seriously. The data we collect is limited to what is genuinely needed to operate the platform, process your transactions, comply with applicable obligations, and keep your account secure.

2 Information We Collect

ph177 collects personal information in two main ways: directly from you when you register and use the platform, and automatically as part of normal platform operation. Here is a breakdown of both.

Information you provide directly:

• Registration details: Full legal name, date of birth, email address, Philippine mobile number, and residential address.
• Identity verification (KYC): Government-issued ID documents, selfies or photos for liveness checks, and supporting documentation required to verify your identity before withdrawals are processed.
• Financial information: Your Philippine bank account details or e-wallet details submitted for withdrawal processing. ph177 does not store full card numbers or cryptocurrency wallet addresses, as these are not accepted payment methods.
• Communications: Messages you send to our support team by email or live chat, including any attachments or documents you share in the course of a support interaction.

Information collected automatically:

• Device and connection data: IP address, device type, operating system, browser type and version, and mobile network.
• Session and usage data: Pages visited, games played, bets placed, session duration, and in-platform navigation patterns.
• Transaction records: A full record of all deposits, withdrawals, bets, and game results associated with your account.
• Cookies and similar technologies: See Section 6 for details on how cookies are used on ph177.

3 How We Use Your Information

ph177 uses your personal information only for the purposes for which it was collected. The table below summarises the primary uses of each category of data we hold.

We do not use your personal data to make automated decisions that significantly affect you without human review. We do not sell your personal data to third parties for marketing purposes.

4 Sharing & Disclosure

ph177 does not sell your personal data. We share your information only in the following limited circumstances:

• Payment processors: Your Philippine banking or e-wallet details are shared with the payment service providers that process your deposits and withdrawals in PHP. These providers are contractually required to handle your data securely and only for the purpose of processing your transaction.
• Identity verification providers: Your KYC documents and identity information are shared with third-party verification services used to check government-issued IDs. These providers are engaged specifically for this purpose and operate under data processing agreements with ph177.
• Platform infrastructure providers: Service providers who host the platform infrastructure, provide fraud detection tooling, or support platform operations may have access to certain data as part of delivering those services. Access is limited to what is necessary for the service being provided.
• Legal and compliance obligations: We may disclose your personal data where we are required to do so by applicable law, court order, or regulatory authority. We will not disclose more data than is required by the relevant obligation.

All third parties who receive your data as part of the above are required to handle it in accordance with applicable data protection standards and are not permitted to use your data for any purpose beyond the service they are providing to ph177.

5 Data Security

ph177 takes reasonable and appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data from unauthorised access, loss, or disclosure. The key security measures in place include:

• SSL encryption: All data transmitted between your device and ph177.vu is protected by SSL/TLS encryption, preventing interception in transit.
• OTP authentication: Two-factor authentication using a one-time password sent to your registered Philippine mobile number is required when logging in from a new device.
• Access controls: Access to personal data and KYC documents within ph177's systems is restricted to personnel with a legitimate operational need. Access logs are maintained.
• Secure storage: Sensitive data including identity documents is stored in access-restricted environments with encryption at rest.

6 Cookies & Tracking Technologies

ph177 uses cookies and similar technologies on the platform. A cookie is a small text file placed on your device by your browser when you visit ph177.vu. Here is how we use them:

• Essential cookies: These are required for the platform to function. They maintain your login session so you don't have to re-enter your credentials on every page. Disabling these will prevent you from staying logged in.
• Analytics cookies: These help us understand how players navigate the platform — which pages are most visited, where errors occur, and how different features are used. This data is used to improve ph177 for Filipino players.
• Security cookies: Used as part of fraud detection and multi-account identification, these help us recognise unusual activity patterns that may indicate account compromise or abuse.

You can manage or disable cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies on a per-site basis. Note that disabling essential cookies will affect your ability to stay logged in to ph177. For instructions on managing cookies in your specific browser, refer to your browser's help section.

7 Data Retention

ph177 retains your personal data for as long as your account is active and for a reasonable period after closure, as required to meet legal and compliance obligations, resolve outstanding disputes, and maintain records of completed transactions.

KYC documents and transaction records are retained for a minimum period required by applicable law following account closure. After the applicable retention period, data is either deleted or anonymised so it can no longer be linked to you as an individual.

If you request account closure, your account will be closed and your personal data will be retained for the applicable minimum retention period before being deleted or anonymised. You may contact support to confirm the retention status of your data following account closure.

8 Your Rights Over Your Data

As a ph177 account holder, you have the following rights in relation to the personal data we hold about you:

• Access: You may request a copy of the personal data ph177 holds about you.
• Correction: If any of the personal information in your account is inaccurate or incomplete, you can request that it be corrected. Some corrections may require supporting documentation.
• Deletion: You may request that we delete your personal data. This right is subject to applicable data retention requirements — data that must be kept for legal or compliance reasons cannot be deleted until the relevant retention period has passed.
• Objection to processing: Where we process your data based on legitimate interests, you may object to that processing in certain circumstances.
• Data portability: You may request a copy of the data you have provided to ph177 in a structured, machine-readable format where this is technically feasible.

To exercise any of these rights, contact ph177 support at [email protected]. We will respond to data requests within a reasonable period. Some requests may require identity verification before we can action them.

9 Children & Minors

ph177 is strictly for adults aged 21 and above. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 21. If we discover that an account has been created by or on behalf of a person under 21, that account will be closed immediately and the data associated with it will be handled in accordance with applicable rules.

If you believe a minor has registered on ph177, please contact us at [email protected] so we can investigate and take appropriate action.

10 Third-Party Links

ph177.vu may contain links to third-party services — for example, payment channel providers or app store listings. These third-party websites and services operate independently of ph177 and have their own privacy policies. ph177 is not responsible for the privacy practices of any third-party site or service. We recommend reviewing the privacy policy of any third-party site you visit before providing your personal information.

11 Changes to This Policy

ph177 may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in how we operate, changes to applicable data protection requirements, or improvements to how we describe our data practices. When updates are made, the revised policy will be published on this page with an updated effective date.

Where changes are material, we will make reasonable efforts to notify registered players through in-platform messaging or other appropriate means. Your continued use of ph177 after an updated Privacy Policy has been published constitutes your acceptance of the revised terms.

We recommend checking this page periodically to stay informed about how ph177 handles your personal data.
