1. Who We Are

phaaa is an online gaming and entertainment platform operated for players based in the Philippines. Our platform is accessible at https://phaaa.bid and offers fish games, live casino, bingo, and a full game lobby — all designed for mobile use with Philippine peso (PHP) payments. When you register an account or use any feature on the platform, you are sharing certain personal information with us. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle that information responsibly and in accordance with applicable Philippine data protection laws, including the Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act No. 10173). If you have any questions about our identity or data practices, you may reach us at [email protected].

2. What Information We Collect

When you register and use the phaaa platform, we collect the following categories of personal information. Registration details include your full name, date of birth, email address, and the username and password you create. Payment and transaction data includes deposit and withdrawal records, payment method details, and transaction history in Philippine pesos. We also collect device and usage information such as your IP address, browser type, operating system, and the pages or games you interact with during your session. If you contact our support team, we retain records of that correspondence including your email address and the content of your messages. We collect only the information that is necessary to provide you with a safe, functional, and compliant gaming experience on the platform.

3. How We Use Your Information

The personal information we collect is used for the following purposes. First, to create and manage your account, verify your identity, and ensure you meet the minimum age requirement of 21 years old as required under Philippine gaming regulations. Second, to process your deposits and withdrawals in PHP and maintain accurate transaction records. Third, to provide customer support and respond to your enquiries in a timely manner. Fourth, to monitor platform activity for signs of fraud, prohibited conduct, or problem gambling behaviour, in order to protect both you and the integrity of the platform. Fifth, to send you important service-related communications such as account updates, security alerts, or changes to this Privacy Policy. We do not use your personal data for unsolicited marketing without your explicit consent, and we do not sell your data to any third party under any circumstances.

4. How We Share Your Information

phaaa does not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to outside parties. We may share your data with trusted third-party service providers who assist us in operating the platform — for example, payment processors who handle your PHP transactions or technology providers who support our platform infrastructure. These partners are contractually required to handle your data securely and only for the specific purpose for which it was shared. We may also disclose your information to regulatory authorities or law enforcement agencies in the Philippines if we are legally required to do so, or if disclosure is necessary to prevent fraud or protect the safety of our users. In all cases, we share only the minimum amount of information necessary to fulfil the relevant purpose.

5. Data Retention

We retain your personal information for as long as your account remains active and for a reasonable period thereafter, as required by applicable Philippine laws and regulations. Transaction records and account history may be retained for a minimum of five years in accordance with financial record-keeping obligations. If you request the closure of your account, we will deactivate it promptly and begin the process of removing or anonymising your personal data, except where retention is required by law. You may contact us at [email protected] to enquire about the specific retention period applicable to your data. We review our data retention practices regularly to ensure we are not holding information longer than necessary.
