The bingo8 platform is strictly intended for adults 21 years of age and older. bingo8 does not knowingly collect personal data from persons under 21 years of age. Age verification is conducted as part of the account registration and KYC process to enforce this restriction.
If bingo8 becomes aware that personal data has been collected from a person under the age of 21 — whether through a false age declaration at registration or otherwise — the affected Account will be immediately closed, all associated data will be handled in accordance with PAGCOR requirements and RA 10173, and the matter may be reported to PAGCOR and relevant authorities.
Parents and guardians who share devices with persons under 21 are responsible for preventing underage access to the bingo8 platform. bingo8 recommends the use of device-level parental controls where appropriate.
If you believe a person under 21 has created a bingo8 Account or that their personal data may be held by bingo8, please contact bingo8 support immediately via live chat. We take this seriously and will act on verified reports without delay.
Under the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012 (RA 10173), you have the following rights with respect to your personal data held by bingo8:
12.1 Right to Be Informed. You have the right to be informed about how your personal data is processed, including the purposes, the legal basis, the retention periods, and the parties with whom it may be shared. This Privacy Policy fulfills that obligation.

12.4 Right to Erasure. You may request the deletion of personal data that is no longer necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, or where you withdraw consent (where consent is the processing basis) and no other lawful basis applies. Note that erasure requests may be limited by bingo8's legal retention obligations under the Anti-Money Laundering Act and PAGCOR regulations, which require certain data to be retained for defined periods.
12.5 Right to Object. You may object to the processing of your personal data for direct marketing purposes at any time. You may also object to processing based on legitimate interests, subject to bingo8's right to demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds.
12.6 Right to Data Portability. You have the right to receive a copy of personal data you have provided to bingo8 in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format, where technically feasible.
12.7 Exercising Your Rights.

Responses will be provided within fifteen (15) business days. Where a request cannot be fulfilled in full, bingo8 will explain the reason in writing.
12.8 National Privacy Commission. If you are not satisfied with bingo8's response to a data privacy concern, you have the right to file a complaint with the National Privacy Commission (NPC) of the Philippines.
bingo8 may send promotional emails, SMS notifications, and in-platform messages to Players who have opted in to marketing communications at registration or through Account Settings. Marketing communications may include promotional offers, new game announcements, bonus notifications, and platform updates.
You may withdraw consent to direct marketing at any time by: (a) updating your communication preferences in bingo8 Account Settings; (b) using the unsubscribe link included in any marketing email; or (c) contacting bingo8 support via live chat. Opt-out requests are processed within five (5) business days.
Withdrawing marketing consent does not affect your ability to receive transactional notifications (such as deposit confirmations, withdrawal updates, and KYC status updates) or regulatory notices, which are necessary for the operation of your bingo8 Account and are not subject to marketing opt-out.
bingo8 primarily processes personal data within the Philippines. Where data is processed or stored outside the Philippines — for example, through cloud infrastructure or game provider integrations — bingo8 ensures that appropriate safeguards are in place in accordance with Section 21 of RA 10173 and the NPC's regulations on cross-border data transfers.
These safeguards include contractual clauses requiring overseas recipients to provide a level of data protection substantially equivalent to the protection afforded under RA 10173, and, where applicable, ensuring that the destination country's legal framework has been assessed for adequacy. bingo8 will not transfer personal data to a jurisdiction that does not provide adequate protection without appropriate safeguards in place.
In the event of a personal data breach that is likely to result in a real risk of harm to affected data subjects, bingo8 is required under RA 10173 Section 20 to notify the National Privacy Commission (NPC) within 72 hours of becoming aware of the breach, and to notify affected data subjects without undue delay where the breach poses a high risk to their rights and freedoms.
Breach notifications to affected Users will be sent to their registered email address or mobile number and will describe: the nature of the breach; the categories of data affected; the likely consequences; the measures taken to address the breach; and the steps Users can take to protect themselves. bingo8 maintains a documented incident response procedure to ensure timely and appropriate handling of any data breach event.
bingo8 reserves the right to amend this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in applicable law, regulatory requirements, bingo8's data processing practices, or the services offered on the Platform. Where amendments are material, bingo8 will provide advance notice to registered Users via their registered email address or via an on-platform notification displayed upon login. The effective date of any revised Policy will be stated at the top of the document. Continued use of the bingo8 Platform after the effective date of any amendment constitutes acceptance of the revised Privacy Policy.
In compliance with RA 10173 and NPC Circular 16-01, bingo8 has designated a Data Protection Officer (DPO) who is responsible for overseeing the Platform's compliance with applicable data privacy law, handling data subject rights requests, and serving as the point of contact for the National Privacy Commission.

Please mark privacy-related inquiries with "Privacy / DPO Request" for routing to the appropriate team. bingo8 will acknowledge privacy requests within 3 business days and respond substantively within fifteen (15) business days.
