phbingo.com ("we," "us," "our," or "the Platform") is committed to protecting the privacy and personal data of all users ("you," "Player," or "data subject") who access or use our online gaming services. This Privacy Policy describes how phbingo.com collects, uses, stores, shares, and protects your personal information in connection with your use of the phbingo.com website, mobile interface, and all associated services.

This Privacy Policy is issued in compliance with Republic Act No. 10173, the Data Privacy Act of 2012 (DPA), its Implementing Rules and Regulations (IRR), and the issuances of the National Privacy Commission (NPC) of the Philippines. It should be read together with our Terms & Conditions, which govern your use of the phbingo.com platform.

If you do not agree with any part of this Policy, please discontinue use of the Platform and contact us to close your account.

For the purposes of the Data Privacy Act of 2012 and its IRR, phbingo.com is the personal information controller in respect of the personal data collected through the Platform. This means phbingo.com determines the purposes and means of processing your personal data.

phbingo.com has appointed a Data Protection Officer (DPO) who is responsible for overseeing compliance with the DPA, handling data subject requests, and serving as the primary point of contact with the National Privacy Commission. Contact details for our DPO are provided in Section 14 of this Policy.

phbingo.com is strictly an adult gaming platform. In accordance with Philippine law, our services are available only to individuals who are 21 years of age or older. phbingo.com does not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under the age of 21.

If phbingo.com becomes aware that personal data has been collected from a person under 21 years of age, we will immediately close the relevant account, delete the associated personal data, and return any deposited funds to the verified payment source.

phbingo.com primarily stores and processes personal data within the Philippines. In limited circumstances, personal data may be transferred to or accessed from servers or service providers located outside the Philippines — for example, in connection with cloud infrastructure, cybersecurity services, or game software providers.

Where personal data is transferred outside the Philippines, phbingo.com ensures that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your data to a standard equivalent to that required under the DPA. These safeguards may include:

• Contractual clauses in data processing agreements that require the recipient to protect personal data to DPA standards.
• Transfers to countries or organizations that the NPC has recognized as providing an adequate level of data protection.
• Binding corporate rules where data is transferred within a corporate group.

phbingo.com will not transfer your personal data to a foreign country or international organization unless the transfer is authorized under the DPA and its IRR, and appropriate safeguards are in place.

phbingo.com may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our data processing practices, applicable law, or regulatory requirements. When material changes are made, we will notify registered players by email or through a prominent notice on the phbingo.com platform at least seven (7) days before the changes take effect.

The date of the most recent revision is displayed at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically to stay informed about how phbingo.com protects your personal data. Your continued use of the Platform following the effective date of any update constitutes your acknowledgment of the revised Policy.

If you have any concerns about changes to this Privacy Policy, please contact our Data Protection Officer before the effective date of the changes. If you do not agree with the revised Policy, you may close your account by contacting our support team.
