Data Privacy & Protection

Privacy Policy — 85 PHP Online Gaming Philippines

At 85 PHP, your privacy isn't an afterthought — it's something we take seriously from the moment you register. This Privacy Policy explains exactly what personal data we collect, why we collect it, who we share it with, how long we keep it, and what rights you have under the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012. Please read it carefully before using the platform.

Last updated: October 1, 2024  ·  Version 2.4

This policy applies to all users of the 85 PHP platform — including the website at 85php.best, all gaming and betting products, and all communication channels including email, live chat, and Viber.

85 php
Your Data Stays in the Philippines
All personal data collected by 85 PHP is stored on servers located within the Philippines or in jurisdictions with equivalent data protection standards. We do not transfer your data offshore to unregulated environments. Your information stays where Philippine law can protect it.
We Never Sell Your Data
85 PHP does not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third-party marketers. The data you provide when registering and playing on 85 PHP is used only for the purposes stated in this policy — operating the platform, verifying your identity, processing transactions, and providing support.
You Control Your Data
Under the Philippine Data Privacy Act, you have the right to access, correct, and request deletion of your personal data at any time. 85 PHP provides clear channels to exercise these rights. We will respond to all data subject requests within the timeframes mandated by applicable law.
1 Who We Are — The Data Controller

85 PHP operates the online gaming and sports betting platform accessible at 85php.best. As the operator of this platform, 85 PHP acts as the data controller for all personal data collected from users registered on the platform. This means we are responsible for determining the purposes and means of processing your personal information.

85 PHP holds a valid gaming license issued by the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR) and operates in compliance with the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act No. 10173), its Implementing Rules and Regulations, and the applicable issuances of the National Privacy Commission (NPC).

We have appointed a designated Data Protection Officer (DPO) who is responsible for overseeing 85 PHP's compliance with applicable data privacy laws. The DPO can be contacted directly at privacy@85php.best. We aim to respond to all privacy-related inquiries within five (5) business days.

In plain terms: 85 PHP is the company in charge of your personal data. The Philippine Data Privacy Act gives you rights over that data, and we are legally obligated to respect those rights. This policy explains how we do that — in language you can actually understand, not just legal jargon.


2 Personal Data We Collect

85 PHP collects only the personal data that is necessary and proportionate to the purposes described in this policy. The categories of data we collect are as follows:

Data Category Specific Items When Collected
Identity Data Full legal name, date of birth, government-issued ID number, ID document images Registration & KYC verification
Contact Data Email address, Philippine mobile number, residential address Registration
Financial Data GCash/Maya account number (masked), bank account details (masked), transaction history Deposit & withdrawal processing
Gaming Data Bet history, game session logs, win/loss records, account balance history During platform use
Technical Data IP address, device type, browser/OS, session timestamps, login history Automatically on access
Communications Data Live chat transcripts, email correspondence, support ticket content When you contact support
Marketing Preferences Opt-in/out status, communication channel preferences, promotion history Registration & account settings

We do not collect sensitive personal information (as defined under the Philippine Data Privacy Act) such as racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious beliefs, health data, or biometric data beyond what is strictly required for identity verification purposes under PAGCOR's Know Your Customer (KYC) requirements.


3 How We Use Your Personal Data

85 PHP uses your personal data only for the specific purposes listed below. We do not repurpose your data for any new use without updating this policy and, where required, obtaining your consent.

  • Account Creation and Management: To register your account, verify your identity, and maintain your account profile on 85 PHP.
  • Service Delivery: To provide access to all betting, gaming, casino, and poker products available on the 85 PHP platform.
  • Payment Processing: To process your deposits and withdrawals via GCash, Maya, bank transfers, and other supported Philippine payment methods.
  • Regulatory Compliance (KYC / AML): To verify your identity and monitor transactions in compliance with PAGCOR licensing requirements and the Anti-Money Laundering Act (AMLA) of the Philippines.
  • Customer Support: To respond to your inquiries, resolve disputes, process complaints, and assist with account issues via live chat, email, or Viber.
  • Security and Fraud Prevention: To detect and prevent fraudulent activity, unauthorized account access, bonus abuse, and other prohibited conduct on the 85 PHP platform.
  • Responsible Gaming: To monitor for patterns of excessive or problematic gambling behavior and to administer deposit limits, self-exclusion, and other responsible gaming tools.
  • Platform Improvement: To analyze platform usage patterns, identify technical issues, and improve the quality and relevance of 85 PHP's products and services.
  • Marketing Communications: To send you promotional offers, bonus notifications, and relevant product updates — only where you have consented to receive such communications and have not subsequently opted out.

4 Legal Basis for Processing

Under the Philippine Data Privacy Act, 85 PHP must have a lawful basis for each type of personal data processing we conduct. The applicable legal bases are:

  • Contractual Necessity: Processing your identity data, contact data, financial data, and gaming data is necessary to perform the contract between you and 85 PHP — i.e., to provide the gaming and betting services you signed up for.
  • Legal Obligation: Processing for KYC/AML compliance, age verification, and regulatory reporting is required by PAGCOR licensing conditions and Philippine law. We cannot operate the platform without meeting these legal obligations.
  • Legitimate Interest: Processing for fraud detection, security monitoring, and platform analytics is based on our legitimate business interest in maintaining a safe, fair, and functional gaming environment for all 85 PHP members.
  • Consent: Processing for marketing communications is based on the explicit consent you provide during registration or at any point through your account settings. You may withdraw this consent at any time.

Withdrawing your consent to marketing communications will not affect the lawfulness of processing that occurred before withdrawal, and will not affect your ability to continue using the 85 PHP platform.


5 Who We Share Your Data With

85 PHP does not sell your personal data to anyone. We share your data with third parties only where necessary and only under the categories described below. All third-party service providers who receive your data are contractually required to process it only for the stated purpose and to maintain appropriate security standards.

  • Payment Processors: GCash (GXI), Maya (PayMaya Philippines), GrabPay, Coins.ph, and Philippine banking partners require transaction data to process your deposits and withdrawals. Each of these providers operates under their own privacy policies and applicable BSP regulations.
  • Identity Verification Providers: Third-party KYC service providers used to verify government-issued IDs and conduct required AML/CFT checks. These providers are bound by strict data handling agreements with 85 PHP.
  • Game Content Providers: Third-party game studios whose content is hosted on the 85 PHP platform may receive minimal technical data (session tokens, game result data) necessary to operate their games. No identifiable personal information is shared with game providers beyond what is technically required.
  • Regulatory Authorities: PAGCOR and other Philippine government authorities including law enforcement agencies may receive data where we are legally required to disclose it — for example, under AMLA reporting obligations or in response to a valid court order.
  • Platform Security Providers: Third-party fraud detection and cybersecurity providers who monitor the 85 PHP platform for threats and unauthorized access receive technical data (IP addresses, session logs) for security monitoring purposes only.

85 PHP does not share your data with advertising networks, social media platforms, or data brokers for marketing or profiling purposes. Any sharing of personal data is done on a need-to-know basis and is governed by written data sharing agreements that comply with the Philippine Data Privacy Act.


6 Cookies and Tracking Technologies

85 PHP uses cookies and similar tracking technologies (session tokens, local storage) on the platform. These technologies serve different purposes, as described below. You can manage your cookie preferences through your browser settings, though disabling certain categories of cookies may affect the functionality of the 85 PHP platform.

85 PHP does not use third-party advertising cookies or place tracking pixels for cross-site advertising purposes. Our cookies are limited to those necessary for platform operation, security, and internal analytics.


7 Data Retention Periods

85 PHP retains personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by applicable law. The retention periods we apply are as follows:

  • Account and Identity Data: Retained for the duration of your active account plus five (5) years after account closure. This retention period reflects PAGCOR licensing requirements and AMLA obligations that require gaming operators to retain KYC records for a minimum of five years.
  • Financial Transaction Data: Retained for seven (7) years following the date of the transaction, in compliance with the provisions of the Anti-Money Laundering Act and its implementing rules.
  • Gaming Session Data: Retained for five (5) years to support dispute resolution and regulatory audit requirements.
  • Customer Support Communications: Retained for three (3) years from the date of the last interaction, to support ongoing account management and dispute handling.
  • Marketing Preferences and Consent Records: Retained for the duration of your account plus one (1) year after closure, as evidence of valid consent or opt-out status.
  • Technical and Security Logs: Retained for twelve (12) months for security monitoring and fraud detection purposes, then automatically purged.

When retention periods expire, personal data is securely deleted or anonymized in accordance with 85 PHP's data destruction procedures. Anonymized data may be retained indefinitely for statistical and analytical purposes without identifying individual users.


8 Security Measures

85 PHP implements a comprehensive set of technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal data from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. Our security framework includes:

  • Encryption in Transit: All data transmitted between your device and the 85 PHP platform is encrypted using TLS 1.2 or higher. Sensitive data including payment details is never transmitted in plain text.
  • Encryption at Rest: Sensitive personal data stored in 85 PHP's databases — including identity documents, financial account references, and authentication credentials — is encrypted at the database level using AES-256 encryption.
  • Access Controls: Internal access to personal data is restricted on a need-to-know basis. Staff with access to personal data are required to complete data privacy training and are subject to confidentiality obligations.
  • Two-Factor Authentication: Two-factor authentication is available to all 85 PHP members and is required for staff accounts with access to member data systems.
  • Security Monitoring: 85 PHP's security team monitors the platform 24/7 for anomalous access patterns, potential intrusions, and unauthorized data access attempts.
  • Incident Response: In the event of a personal data breach that poses a risk to your rights and freedoms, 85 PHP will notify the National Privacy Commission within 72 hours of becoming aware of the breach, and affected members will be notified without undue delay.

While we take all reasonable steps to protect your data, no online platform can guarantee absolute security. You play an important role in your own data security by maintaining a strong, unique password for your 85 PHP account and enabling two-factor authentication.


9 Your Rights Under the Data Privacy Act

The Philippine Data Privacy Act grants you specific rights over your personal data held by 85 PHP. We are committed to making it straightforward for you to exercise these rights. Submit any request to our Data Protection Officer at privacy@85php.best — we will acknowledge your request within three (3) business days and aim to respond in full within fifteen (15) business days.

Right to Access
Request a copy of the personal data 85 PHP holds about you, including information on how it is being used.
Right to Correction
Request that inaccurate, outdated, or incomplete personal data in your 85 PHP account be corrected or updated.
Right to Erasure
Request deletion of your personal data where it is no longer necessary for the purpose it was collected, subject to legal retention requirements.
Right to Object
Object to the processing of your personal data for direct marketing purposes at any time, with immediate effect.
Right to Portability
Receive a copy of your personal data in a structured, machine-readable format and transfer it to another controller.
Right to Complain
File a complaint with the National Privacy Commission (NPC) of the Philippines if you believe 85 PHP has violated your data privacy rights.

10 Children's Privacy

The 85 PHP platform is strictly intended for persons aged 21 years and above. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under the age of 21. The platform employs age verification measures during the registration process to prevent underage access.

If 85 PHP discovers or is notified that personal data has been collected from a person under 21 years of age, we will immediately close that account, delete all associated personal data, and void any transactions or winnings in that account in accordance with our Terms and Conditions and applicable PAGCOR regulations.

If you are a parent or guardian and believe your minor child has created an account on 85 PHP, please contact us immediately at support@85php.best so we can take prompt action to close the account and delete the associated data.


11 Marketing Communications

85 PHP may send you promotional emails, SMS notifications, or in-app messages about bonuses, new products, tournaments, and platform updates. We will only send marketing communications to you if you have explicitly consented to receive them — either during registration or at a later point through your account settings.

You can opt out of marketing communications at any time through the following methods:

  • Clicking the unsubscribe link in any marketing email from 85 PHP.
  • Updating your communication preferences in your 85 PHP account settings under "Notifications."
  • Contacting our support team via live chat or emailing support@85php.best with a request to opt out of all marketing communications.

Opting out of marketing communications will not affect essential service communications — we will still send you transaction confirmations, security alerts, account verification messages, and mandatory regulatory notifications regardless of your marketing preferences, as these are necessary for the operation of your account.

Note that responsible gaming communications — including reminders about deposit limits, session time alerts, and self-exclusion information — are treated as essential service communications and are sent regardless of marketing opt-out status.


12 Changes to This Privacy Policy

85 PHP may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in our data processing practices, new regulatory requirements, or updates to the platform's features and services. The date of the most recent revision is always displayed at the top of this page alongside the version number.

When we make material changes to this policy — changes that significantly affect how we use your personal data or your rights — we will notify you by email to the address registered on your 85 PHP account at least fourteen (14) days before the changes take effect. For minor changes (such as clarifications or formatting updates), we may update the policy without individual notification.

Continued use of the 85 PHP platform after the effective date of an updated Privacy Policy constitutes your acknowledgment of the changes. If you disagree with any updates, you have the right to close your account and request deletion of your data as described in Section 9 of this policy.


13 Contact Our Data Protection Officer

For all privacy-related inquiries, data subject requests, or concerns about how 85 PHP handles your personal data, please contact our Data Protection Officer directly:

  • Email: privacy@85php.best — preferred channel for all formal data privacy requests.
  • Live Chat: Available 24/7 through the 85 PHP platform for general privacy questions.
  • Mail: Data Protection Officer, 85 PHP, Philippines. (Exact registered address available on request.)

We aim to acknowledge all formal data privacy requests within three (3) business days and to resolve them in full within fifteen (15) business days. Where the complexity of your request requires additional time, we will notify you of the extended timeline and the reason for it.

If you are not satisfied with our response to your privacy concern, you have the right to lodge a complaint directly with the National Privacy Commission of the Philippines. Information about how to file a complaint with the NPC is available on the NPC's official website.

Data Privacy in Practice

What 85 PHP's Privacy Commitment Means for You Day-to-Day

Privacy policies can feel abstract — so let's make it concrete. When you deposit ₱500 into your 85 PHP account using GCash, your GCash account number is passed to the payment processor to complete the transaction, then stored in masked form (e.g., 09XX-XXX-X456) in our system. We never store your full GCash credentials, and we never share your payment details with any third party other than the payment processor needed to complete the transaction.

When you play a PBA bet at 85 PHP, your bet is recorded against your account ID — not your name or ID number — in the game logs. The personal information attached to your account is kept in a separate, access-controlled database from your gaming activity logs. This separation means that even within our internal systems, access to your personal data is compartmentalized.

When your account is eventually closed, we retain the minimum data required by PAGCOR and AMLA regulations, then purge everything else on schedule. Your data does not sit in our systems indefinitely — it has a defined lifecycle, and we enforce it.

How 85 PHP Protects Your Privacy Every Day

Practical measures that make a real difference to the security of your personal data on the platform.

Password Never Stored in Plain Text
Your 85 PHP account password is hashed using a one-way cryptographic algorithm before storage. Even our own engineers cannot read your password — only you know it. This means a data breach of our database would not expose your actual password to attackers.
Two-Factor Authentication
Enable 2FA on your 85 PHP account to add a second layer of security beyond your password. Even if someone obtains your password, they cannot access your account without your registered mobile device. Available for all members at no extra cost.
No Cross-Platform Tracking
85 PHP does not use advertising trackers or third-party pixels that follow you across other websites after you leave the platform. What happens on 85 PHP stays on 85 PHP — your browsing activity outside this platform is your own business.
Minimal Data by Design
We only ask for the personal information we actually need. No unnecessary fields during registration, no optional data collection disguised as required. Data minimization is one of the core principles of the Philippine Data Privacy Act, and 85 PHP applies it genuinely.
Breach Notification Commitment
If a security incident ever puts your personal data at risk, 85 PHP will notify you and the National Privacy Commission within the legally required timeframes. You will receive clear information about what happened, what data was affected, and what steps we are taking to address it.
Annual Privacy Audits
85 PHP conducts annual internal privacy audits to review data processing activities, assess vendor compliance, test security controls, and update this policy as needed. Our Data Protection Officer oversees these audits and reports findings to senior management.

Philippine Data Privacy Act

85 PHP and the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012

Republic Act No. 10173 — the Philippine Data Privacy Act — is the foundation of how 85 PHP handles your personal information. The law sets out eight key privacy principles: transparency, legitimate purpose, proportionality, and five others related to data quality, security, retention, openness, and data subject access. Every section of this Privacy Policy is written to reflect and comply with these principles.

The National Privacy Commission (NPC) is the Philippine government body that enforces the Data Privacy Act. 85 PHP cooperates fully with NPC oversight and has a designated Data Protection Officer registered with the NPC as required by the Act's implementing rules. If you ever feel that 85 PHP has not respected your privacy rights, the NPC provides a formal complaint mechanism through its official channels.

We believe that complying with the Data Privacy Act isn't just a legal requirement — it's a baseline of respect for our members. Filipino players entrust 85 PHP with their personal and financial information. That trust is something we work to earn and maintain every day, not just when regulators are watching.

Your data, your rights — always protected at 85 PHP
