p898k is committed to protecting the personal data of every Filipino player on our platform. This Privacy Policy explains what we collect, how we use it, who we share it with, and the rights available to you under Philippine data protection law.
This Privacy Policy ("Policy") describes how p898k ("we", "us", "the Operator") collects, uses, stores, discloses, and otherwise processes the personal data of individuals ("you", "Players", "Data Subjects") who access or use the p898k online gaming platform at p898k.vip. p898k is committed to processing personal data in accordance with Republic Act No. 10173, the Data Privacy Act of 2012 (DPA), its Implementing Rules and Regulations (IRR), and the applicable issuances of the National Privacy Commission (NPC). This Policy should be read alongside the p898k Terms and Conditions.
This Policy applies to all personal data processed by p898k in connection with the operation of the p898k platform, including data collected through the website at p898k.vip, the p898k mobile application, customer support interactions, and any other channel through which you interact with p898k as a registered or prospective player.
By registering a p898k account or using any p898k service, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy. Where your consent is required as a legal basis for a specific processing activity, we will request that consent separately and explicitly. Where we rely on other legal bases — such as contractual necessity, legal obligation, or legitimate interest — this Policy explains those bases.
This Policy does not cover third-party websites, services, or applications that may be linked to or from p898k. p898k is not responsible for the privacy practices of third parties, and Players should review the privacy policies of any third-party services they use in connection with their p898k account, including GCash, PayMaya, BPI, BDO, and Metrobank.
p898k is the data controller in respect of the personal data processed under this Policy. As data controller, p898k determines the purposes and means of processing your personal data and is responsible for ensuring that such processing complies with the Data Privacy Act of 2012 and applicable NPC regulations.
p898k has designated a Data Protection Officer (DPO) responsible for overseeing compliance with data protection obligations and serving as the primary point of contact for data subjects exercising their rights under the DPA. Contact details for the DPO are provided in Section 15 of this Policy.
p898k operates under PAGCOR's regulatory framework. This means that certain data processing activities — particularly those related to player identity verification, transaction monitoring, and anti-money laundering compliance — are conducted under legal obligations imposed by PAGCOR and by the Anti-Money Laundering Council (AMLC) pursuant to Republic Act No. 9160 (as amended by Republic Act No. 10365).

p898k's services are strictly restricted to individuals aged 21 years and older. p898k does not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under 21 years of age. The 21+ age requirement is enforced through the mandatory KYC verification process applicable to all new accounts.
If p898k becomes aware that personal data has been collected from a person under the age of 21, it will take immediate steps to close the associated account, delete the personal data to the extent permitted by PAGCOR and AMLC record-keeping obligations, and report the matter to PAGCOR as required. Parents or guardians who become aware that a minor has registered a p898k account should contact our support team immediately so that appropriate action can be taken.
p898k's primary data processing operations are conducted within the Philippines. However, certain service providers engaged by p898k — including cloud hosting providers, game studios, and KYC verification services — may process data in other countries. Where personal data is transferred outside the Philippines, p898k ensures that appropriate safeguards are in place, including contractual data protection clauses consistent with NPC requirements for cross-border data transfers.
p898k does not transfer personal data to countries or organisations that do not provide an adequate level of data protection as assessed under the Data Privacy Act of 2012 and NPC guidelines, unless supplementary safeguards are implemented to provide equivalent protection.
p898k reserves the right to update or modify this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in applicable law, regulatory requirements, or our data processing practices. Where changes are material, p898k will notify registered Players via the contact details held on their account — by SMS to the registered Philippine mobile number, or by email where an email address is registered.
The effective date of the current version of this Policy is stated at the top of this document. We encourage Players to review this Policy periodically to stay informed about how p898k protects their personal data. Continued use of the p898k Platform following notification of changes constitutes acceptance of the revised Privacy Policy.
