cashph Privacy Policy
cashph is committed to protecting the personal data of every Filipino player on our platform. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, why we collect it, how we use it, and your rights under the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012.
Our Privacy Commitments
How cashph Protects Your Data
Before reading the full legal text below, here are the six core privacy commitments that govern how cashph handles the personal information of every Filipino player registered on our platform.
We Collect Only What We Need
cashph follows the principle of data minimisation. We collect only the personal data that is strictly necessary to operate a PAGCOR-licensed gaming platform — your identity for KYC, your contact details for support, and your transaction data for AMLA compliance. We do not harvest data beyond what is required.
Your Data Is Encrypted & Secured
All personal data transmitted to and stored on cashph's systems is protected using industry-standard encryption (TLS in transit, AES-256 at rest). Access to personal data within cashph is restricted on a need-to-know basis, and all staff with data access are bound by confidentiality obligations.
We Never Sell Your Data
cashph does not sell, rent, or commercially trade your personal data to third parties. Data shared with third parties is limited to what is required by law (PAGCOR, AMLC, NPC), necessary for platform operations (payment processors, KYC providers), or specifically consented to by you.
You Control Your Own Data
As a data subject under the Philippine Data Privacy Act (R.A. 10173), you have the right to access, correct, delete, and object to processing of your personal data. cashph provides practical mechanisms to exercise these rights and will respond to all data rights requests within the timeframes specified by the NPC.
We Retain Data Only As Long As Required
cashph retains personal data only for as long as it is necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by Philippine law — including the AMLA's 5-year record-keeping requirement. When data is no longer required and retention is not mandated, it is securely deleted or anonymised.
We Will Notify You of Breaches
In the event of a personal data breach that affects your rights and freedoms, cashph will notify the National Privacy Commission (NPC) within 72 hours of becoming aware of the breach, and will notify affected data subjects as soon as reasonably practicable, in accordance with NPC Circular 16-03.
Who We Are — Data Controller
1.1 For the purposes of the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012 (R.A. 10173), cashph is the Personal Information Controller (PIC) in respect of the personal data of players and users of the cashph platform.
1.2 cashph operates as an online gaming platform licensed by the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR) and is subject to the data protection requirements of PAGCOR's licensing conditions in addition to those of the NPC.
1.3 cashph has designated a Data Protection Officer (DPO) responsible for overseeing compliance with R.A. 10173 and this Policy. Contact details for the DPO are provided in Section 16 of this Policy.
Scope of This Policy
2.1 This Policy applies to all personal data collected by cashph from or about:
- Registered players and account holders on the cashph platform;
- Visitors to the cashph website who have not yet registered an account;
- Individuals who contact cashph's customer support team;
- Individuals who participate in cashph promotions, surveys, or communications.
2.2 This Policy does not apply to the data practices of third-party service providers, payment processors, or external websites that may be referenced in communications from cashph. Each such third party operates under its own privacy policy, which you should review independently.
2.3 Where cashph acts as a Personal Information Processor (PIP) — processing data on behalf of another controller — the privacy obligations applicable to that processing are governed by the contract between cashph and the relevant controller, in addition to R.A. 10173.
