72ph Privacy Policy
At 72ph, protecting your personal information is as important to us as delivering a world-class gaming experience. This Privacy Policy explains exactly what data we collect, how we use it, who we share it with, and the rights you hold as a Filipino player under the Data Privacy Act of 2012.
How 72ph Handles Your Data
Six core principles that govern every piece of personal information you share with 72ph — from registration to your last withdrawal.
72ph only collects the personal data that is strictly necessary to operate your account, process transactions, and comply with Philippine regulatory requirements. We do not harvest data for advertising profiling or sell it to data brokers.
All data transmitted between your device and 72ph is protected by 256-bit SSL/TLS encryption. Our servers are protected by firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and regular independent security audits to keep your information safe at all times.
As a 72ph player, you have the right to access, correct, delete, and port your personal data at any time. You can also withdraw consent for non-essential processing without affecting your ability to use the platform for core gaming activities.
72ph's data practices are designed to comply with Republic Act 10173, the Data Privacy Act of 2012, as administered by the National Privacy Commission (NPC) of the Philippines. We take our obligations under Philippine privacy law seriously.
72ph retains personal data only for as long as is necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by applicable Philippine law and regulatory obligations. We publish clear retention periods for each data category in this Privacy Policy.
You can opt out of marketing communications from 72ph at any time — via the unsubscribe link in any email, through your account settings, or by contacting our support team. Opting out of marketing does not affect your account functionality or game access.
Introduction
72ph ("we", "us", "our") is committed to protecting the personal information of every player who uses our platform at 72ph.ws. This Privacy Policy describes the types of personal data we collect, the purposes for which we process that data, the parties with whom we may share it, and the rights available to you as a data subject under Philippine law.
This Privacy Policy applies to all personal data processed by 72ph in connection with the registration and use of a 72ph account, participation in games, deposits and withdrawals, customer support interactions, and marketing communications. It applies to all players accessing 72ph from the Philippines and elsewhere.
By registering a 72ph account or using the 72ph platform, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with any part of this policy, you should discontinue use of the platform and contact [email protected] to request account closure.
Personal Data We Collect
72ph collects personal data through multiple touchpoints across the player relationship. The categories of data we collect are described below:
2.1 Registration Data
When you create a 72ph account, we collect: full legal name, date of birth, email address, Philippine mobile number, and a password (stored in hashed form — never in plain text). This data is required to create and maintain your account.
2.2 Identity Verification (KYC) Data
To comply with Philippine anti-money laundering regulations and age verification requirements, we collect: copies of government-issued photo identification (e.g., Philippine passport, SSS ID, UMID, or driver's licence), proof of address documents, and proof of payment method ownership. This data is collected only when required for verification purposes.
2.3 Financial Data
When you make deposits or request withdrawals, we collect transaction records including deposit amounts, withdrawal requests, payment method identifiers (e.g., GCash registered mobile number, BPI account suffix), and transaction timestamps. We do not store full bank account numbers, card numbers, or full e-wallet credentials on our servers.
2.4 Gaming Activity Data
We record your gaming activity on the 72ph platform, including games played, wager amounts, session duration, win/loss outcomes, and bonus usage. This data is used for account management, responsible gaming monitoring, dispute resolution, and regulatory reporting.
2.5 Technical and Device Data
When you access 72ph, we automatically collect certain technical data including: IP address, browser type and version, operating system, device type, screen resolution, referring URL, and session duration. This data is used for security, fraud prevention, and platform optimisation.
2.6 Communications Data
When you contact 72ph customer support via email, live chat, or any other channel, we retain records of those communications, including your name, contact details, and the content of the interaction. This data is used to manage support queries and improve service quality.

72ph engages third-party service providers for functions including cloud hosting, cybersecurity, customer support tooling, and analytics. These providers act as data processors under contract with 72ph and are not permitted to use your data for any purpose beyond providing the contracted service.

72ph will respond to all data rights requests within thirty (30) calendar days of receipt.

Data Security
72ph implements a comprehensive, multi-layered security framework to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. Our security measures include:
- Encryption in transit: All data exchanged between your browser or app and 72ph servers is encrypted using TLS 1.2 or higher with 256-bit SSL certificates.
- Encryption at rest: Sensitive personal data stored on 72ph servers — including identity documents and financial records — is encrypted at rest using AES-256 encryption.
- Access controls: Access to personal data within 72ph is restricted to authorised personnel on a strict need-to-know basis. All internal access is logged and subject to regular review.
- Password security: Player passwords are never stored in plain text. We use industry-standard cryptographic hashing with salting to protect your login credentials.
- Two-factor authentication: 72ph offers two-factor authentication (2FA) for all player accounts to provide an additional layer of account security beyond your password.
- Penetration testing: Our platform undergoes regular independent security audits and penetration testing to identify and remediate vulnerabilities before they can be exploited.
- Intrusion detection: 72ph operates real-time intrusion detection and monitoring systems to identify and respond to suspicious activity on our infrastructure.
9.1 Data Breach Response
In the event of a personal data breach that is likely to result in a risk to your rights and freedoms, 72ph will notify the National Privacy Commission within seventy-two (72) hours of becoming aware of the breach, as required by the DPA. Where the breach is likely to result in a high risk to you personally, we will also notify you directly without undue delay, providing clear information about the nature of the breach, the data affected, and the steps we are taking to address it.
Children's Privacy and Age Restriction
72ph is strictly an adult gaming platform. In accordance with Philippine law, you must be at least 21 years of age to register and use the 72ph platform. We do not knowingly collect personal data from individuals below the age of 21.
All registrations are subject to age verification as part of our KYC process. Where 72ph discovers or has reason to believe that a registered account belongs to a person under 21 years of age, we will immediately suspend the account, conduct a full review, and permanently close the account if the underage use is confirmed. Any funds in such an account will be handled in accordance with applicable Philippine regulatory guidance.
If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has registered on the 72ph platform, please contact us immediately at [email protected] so that we can take appropriate action.
