Your privacy matters to us. This Privacy Policy explains exactly what personal data mineph collects, why we collect it, how we use it, and the rights you have as a Filipino player on our platform.
Before diving into the full policy, here are the six core principles that guide every data decision we make at mineph.
mineph collects only the personal data that is necessary for specific, legitimate purposes — account management, payment processing, regulatory compliance, and improving your gaming experience. We do not collect data speculatively or for undefined future uses.
Your data is protected by 256-bit SSL encryption in transit and AES-256 encryption at rest. Access to personal data within the mineph organization is strictly role-based — only staff who need your data to perform their duties can access it.
We tell you clearly what data we collect, why we collect it, and who we share it with. There are no hidden data practices at mineph. This Privacy Policy is written in plain English so every Filipino player can understand exactly how their information is handled.
Every data processing activity at mineph is grounded in a lawful basis under the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act No. 10173) — whether that is your consent, the performance of our contract with you, a legal obligation, or our legitimate interests as a licensed gaming operator.
mineph retains your personal data only for as long as it is needed for the purpose it was collected, or as required by Philippine law and PAGCOR regulations. When data is no longer needed, it is securely deleted or anonymized in accordance with our data retention schedule.
Under the Philippine Data Privacy Act, you have the right to access, correct, delete, and port your personal data. mineph makes it straightforward to exercise these rights. Contact our Data Protection Officer at any time and we will respond within the timeframes required by law.
