889ph Privacy Policy
Your privacy matters to us. This Privacy Policy explains what personal data 889ph collects, how it is used, who it may be shared with, and the rights you hold as a Filipino data subject under Republic Act No. 10173.
All personal data collected by 889ph is stored on encrypted, access-controlled servers. We apply industry-standard security protocols to safeguard your information from unauthorised access, disclosure, or loss.
889ph processes personal data in strict accordance with the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012 (RA 10173) and its implementing rules. You have the right to be informed, to access, and to correct your personal data at any time.
889ph does not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to unaffiliated third parties for their own marketing purposes. Data is shared only where strictly necessary for platform operations or required by Philippine law.
We use cookies and similar technologies solely to improve your 889ph experience — keeping you logged in, remembering your preferences, and helping us understand how players use the platform so we can make it better.
Identity verification (KYC) data submitted to 889ph — including government-issued IDs and proof of address — is handled with the highest level of confidentiality and used exclusively for account verification and regulatory compliance purposes.
You are in control of your marketing preferences. Players can opt out of promotional emails and SMS notifications at any time via their 889ph account dashboard or by contacting our 24/7 live chat support team directly.
Introduction
889ph ("we", "us", "our", "the Platform") is committed to protecting the privacy and personal data of every player and visitor who uses our online gaming platform at https://889ph.net. This Privacy Policy explains in clear, plain English how 889ph collects, uses, stores, discloses, and otherwise processes your personal data in connection with your use of the platform.
This Privacy Policy applies to all individuals who visit the 889ph website, register a player account, use any 889ph service, or interact with us through any channel including live chat, email, or social media. It covers all personal data collected regardless of the device or network used to access the platform — including mobile devices on Globe, Smart, DITO, or any other Philippine telecommunications network.
889ph operates in the Philippine market and processes personal data in compliance with the Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act No. 10173) and its Implementing Rules and Regulations, as overseen by the National Privacy Commission (NPC) of the Philippines.
By registering an account, making a deposit, or continuing to use the 889ph platform, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with how 889ph handles your personal data as described here, please discontinue use of the platform and contact our support team to request account closure.

How We Collect Your Data
889ph collects personal data through the following channels:
- Direct interactions: Data you provide when you register an account, complete KYC verification, make a deposit or withdrawal, contact our support team, or respond to promotions and surveys.
- Automated technologies: When you access the 889ph website or platform, we automatically collect technical and usage data through cookies, web beacons, pixel tags, server logs, and similar tracking technologies (see Section 7 for more details).
- Payment providers: When you transact through GCash, Maya, BPI, BDO, UnionBank, 7-Eleven Cliqq, Coins.ph, or USDT TRC20, we receive transaction confirmation data from these providers to process your deposit or withdrawal.
- Identity verification services: 889ph may use third-party identity verification partners to cross-check the information you provide during KYC against authoritative Philippine data sources.
- Anti-fraud and AML systems: We may receive data from fraud prevention databases and AML screening tools as part of our regulatory compliance obligations.
How We Use Your Personal Data
889ph uses the personal data we collect for the following purposes:
- Account creation and management: To register your 889ph account, verify your identity, maintain your player profile, and manage your preferences.
- Processing transactions: To process deposits and withdrawals via GCash, Maya, BPI, BDO, and other supported Philippine payment methods, and to maintain accurate financial records.
- Regulatory compliance: To comply with obligations under RA 10173 (Data Privacy Act), applicable PAGCOR regulations, the Anti-Money Laundering Act (AMLA), and other Philippine laws. This includes conducting KYC checks, filing regulatory reports, and responding to lawful requests from competent authorities.
- Security and fraud prevention: To detect, investigate, and prevent fraudulent activity, money laundering, collusion, bonus abuse, and other prohibited conduct on the platform.
- Customer support: To respond to your enquiries, resolve disputes, process complaints, and provide assistance through our 24/7 live chat and email support channels.
- Platform improvement: To analyse how players use 889ph — including which games are most popular, how navigation flows are used, and where technical issues arise — so we can improve platform performance and the overall player experience.
- Responsible gaming: To monitor gaming behaviour for indicators of problem gambling, enforce deposit limits and self-exclusion requests, and fulfil our responsible gaming obligations.
- Marketing communications: To send you promotional offers, bonus alerts, and platform news — but only where you have provided consent to receive such communications. You may withdraw this consent at any time.
- Legal proceedings: To establish, exercise, or defend legal claims arising from your use of the 889ph platform.
889ph will not use your personal data for any purpose incompatible with those listed above without first providing you with notice and, where required by law, obtaining your consent.
Legal Basis for Processing
Under the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012, the processing of personal data must be based on one or more lawful criteria. 889ph relies on the following legal bases for processing your personal data:
- Contractual necessity: Processing is necessary to perform the contract between you and 889ph — including registering your account, processing payments, settling bets, and providing customer support.
- Legal obligation: Processing is required to comply with Philippine law, including KYC obligations under AMLA, regulatory reporting requirements, and tax obligations.
- Legitimate interests: Processing is necessary for the legitimate interests of 889ph, including fraud prevention, platform security, responsible gaming monitoring, and internal analytics — provided these interests are not overridden by your privacy rights.
- Consent: For marketing communications and certain non-essential cookie usage, 889ph relies on your freely given, specific, informed, and unambiguous consent. You may withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.
Data Sharing & Disclosure
889ph does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to unrelated third parties. We may share your personal data with the following categories of recipients only to the extent necessary for the stated purpose:
- Payment service providers: GCash, Maya, BPI, BDO, UnionBank, 7-Eleven Cliqq, Coins.ph, and USDT TRC20 processors receive transaction data necessary to process your deposits and withdrawals.
- Identity verification and KYC partners: Third-party providers who assist with verifying your identity and screening against regulatory watchlists.
- Anti-fraud and AML service providers: Platforms and databases used to detect and prevent fraudulent activity, money laundering, and other prohibited conduct.
- Technology and hosting providers: Cloud hosting, cybersecurity, and IT infrastructure vendors who process data on behalf of 889ph under strict data processing agreements.
- Game content providers: Where required by the architecture of certain live dealer or third-party game integrations, limited session data may be shared with licensed game content studios.
- Regulatory and law enforcement authorities: 889ph is legally required to disclose personal data to the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP), the Anti-Money Laundering Council (AMLC), PAGCOR, the National Privacy Commission, and other competent Philippine authorities upon lawful request.
- Legal and professional advisers: Lawyers, auditors, and accountants advising 889ph in connection with legal proceedings, compliance reviews, or business transactions — bound by confidentiality obligations.
All third parties who process personal data on behalf of 889ph are required to handle such data in compliance with RA 10173 and are bound by data processing agreements that restrict use of your data to the specific purposes for which it was shared.
Cookies & Tracking Technologies
889ph uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on the 889ph website to improve your experience, ensure platform security, and gather analytics data that helps us develop better services for Filipino players.
The types of cookies used on the 889ph platform include:
- Strictly necessary cookies: These are essential for the platform to function. They enable core features such as maintaining your login session, remembering your account preferences, and ensuring secure transactions. These cookies cannot be disabled without breaking core platform functionality.
- Analytics cookies: These help us understand how players navigate and use the 889ph platform — for example, which game categories are most visited, how long sessions typically last, and where players encounter technical difficulties. This data is used in aggregate and anonymised form to improve the platform.
- Functionality cookies: These remember your preferences (such as language settings and display options) and personalise your experience across sessions.
- Marketing cookies: Where you have consented, these cookies track your interactions with 889ph promotional content so that we can show you relevant offers and measure the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns.
You can manage your cookie preferences through your browser settings. Most modern browsers allow you to refuse cookies, delete existing cookies, or be alerted when a new cookie is set. Please note that disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of the 889ph platform. Detailed cookie management instructions are available through your specific browser's help documentation.
Data Security
889ph implements technical, organisational, and physical security measures designed to protect your personal data from unauthorised access, accidental loss, destruction, alteration, or disclosure. These measures include:
- Encryption: Personal and financial data is encrypted both in transit (using TLS/SSL protocols) and at rest using industry-standard encryption algorithms.
- Access controls: Access to personal data is restricted on a strict need-to-know basis. 889ph staff are granted access only to the data required to perform their specific job functions, and all access is logged and audited.
- Two-factor authentication: Sensitive administrative systems are protected by multi-factor authentication to reduce the risk of unauthorised access.
- Regular security assessments: 889ph conducts regular vulnerability assessments and penetration testing to identify and address security risks before they can be exploited.
- Incident response: 889ph maintains a data breach response plan. In the event of a personal data breach that is likely to result in significant harm to affected players, 889ph will notify the National Privacy Commission and affected players within the timeframes required by RA 10173.
While 889ph takes robust steps to protect your data, no online platform can guarantee absolute security. Players are encouraged to use strong, unique passwords for their 889ph accounts, enable two-factor authentication where available, and to contact 889ph support immediately if they suspect unauthorised account activity.
Data Retention
889ph retains personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, subject to our obligation to retain certain records for longer periods as required by Philippine law.
- Active accounts: Personal data associated with an active 889ph account is retained for the lifetime of the account plus a minimum period following account closure as required by applicable regulations.
- Financial and transaction records: Under the Anti-Money Laundering Act and related regulations, 889ph is required to retain transaction records for a minimum of five (5) years from the date of the transaction.
- KYC documents: Identity verification documents are retained for a minimum of five (5) years following account closure or the completion of the relevant transaction, as required by AMLA implementing rules.
- Communication records: Support chat transcripts, email correspondence, and complaint records are retained for a minimum of three (3) years to facilitate dispute resolution and compliance review.
- Marketing data: Consent records and marketing preference data are retained for the duration of the player relationship and for a reasonable period thereafter to demonstrate regulatory compliance.
Upon expiry of the applicable retention period, personal data is securely deleted or anonymised in a manner that renders it impossible to re-identify the individual to whom it relates.
Your Data Subject Rights
As a data subject under the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012 (RA 10173), you are entitled to the following rights with respect to your personal data held by 889ph:
You have the right to know what personal data 889ph collects about you, how it is used, and with whom it is shared — as set out in this Privacy Policy.
You have the right to request a copy of the personal data 889ph holds about you. Requests can be submitted through the 24/7 live chat or by email.
If your personal data held by 889ph is inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to request correction. You can update basic profile information directly in your account dashboard.
In certain circumstances, you may request deletion of your personal data. Note that this right is subject to 889ph's legal obligations to retain data under AMLA and other Philippine regulations.
You have the right to object to certain types of processing, including processing based on legitimate interests and direct marketing. Objections to marketing can be actioned through your account settings.
Where technically feasible, you may request that 889ph provides your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format so that it can be transferred to another service provider.
Where processing is based on your consent (e.g. marketing communications), you may withdraw that consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal.
If you believe 889ph has not handled your personal data in compliance with RA 10173, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the National Privacy Commission of the Philippines.
Children's Privacy
The 889ph platform is strictly intended for adults aged 21 years and older, in compliance with applicable Philippine law governing casino-style online gaming. 889ph does not knowingly collect, use, or retain personal data from individuals under the age of 21.
If 889ph becomes aware that personal data has been collected from a person under 21 without appropriate parental or guardian consent, we will take immediate steps to delete that data and close the associated account. Any winnings or balances held in such an account may be forfeited in accordance with our Terms & Conditions.
Parents and guardians who are aware that a minor may have registered an account with 889ph are encouraged to contact our support team immediately via the 24/7 live chat facility.
Cross-Border Data Transfers
As an online platform, 889ph may use cloud hosting, game content, and technology service providers whose infrastructure is located outside the Philippines. Where personal data is transferred to a recipient in another country, 889ph ensures that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your data in a manner consistent with RA 10173.
Safeguards for international transfers may include:
- Data processing agreements incorporating standard contractual clauses approved by the National Privacy Commission or equivalent regulatory bodies.
- Transfer to countries recognised as providing an adequate level of data protection under applicable Philippine regulations.
- Binding corporate rules where data is transferred within a group of related companies.
889ph does not transfer personal data internationally any more than is strictly necessary for the operation of the platform and the fulfilment of our contractual and legal obligations.

889ph reserves the right to update or amend this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in our data practices, platform features, legal obligations, or regulatory requirements. The effective date displayed at the top of this page indicates the date of the most recent revision.
