p898k retains your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, including satisfying legal, regulatory, accounting, and reporting requirements. The following general retention periods apply:

• Intrusion detection systems and real-time monitoring for suspicious activity on the platform.
• Secure data centres with physical access controls for servers hosting p898k data.

While p898k takes all reasonable steps to protect your data, no online platform can guarantee absolute security.

11 Children's Privacy

The p898k platform is strictly intended for adults aged 21 years and above, in accordance with Philippine gaming regulations. p898k does not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under the age of 21.

If p898k becomes aware that personal data has been collected from a person under 21 years of age, we will immediately suspend the associated account, delete the personal data in question, and void any transactions made through that account. Any deposited funds will be returned to the originating payment method after deduction of any bonuses received.

If you are a parent or guardian and believe that your child has registered on p898k, please contact our support team immediately so we can take appropriate action.

12 International Data Transfers

p898k primarily stores and processes personal data within the Philippines. Where it is necessary to transfer personal data to service providers or infrastructure located outside the Philippines — for example, cloud hosting or analytics services — p898k ensures that such transfers are carried out in compliance with the Data Privacy Act of 2012 and its Implementing Rules and Regulations.

International transfers are protected by appropriate safeguards, including contractual data processing agreements that require overseas recipients to maintain data protection standards equivalent to those required under Philippine law. p898k does not transfer personal data to jurisdictions that do not provide an adequate level of data protection without implementing appropriate additional safeguards.

13 Updates to This Privacy Policy

p898k reserves the right to update or amend this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in our data processing practices, applicable law, or platform features. The date of the most recent revision is displayed at the top of this page.

Where changes are material, p898k will notify registered players via email or platform notification at least seven (7) days before the changes take effect. Your continued use of the p898k platform after the effective date of any update constitutes your acceptance of the revised Privacy Policy.

We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically to stay informed about how p898k protects your personal data.
