• Operating gaming services: To allow you to place wagers, play games and participate in any promotions available on sabong ph, and to settle results and bonuses correctly.
• Responsible gaming: To allow you to set deposit limits, cooling-off periods and self-exclusion instructions, and to monitor for indicators of potential problem gambling activity where required by our operational policies.

4. Legal basis for processing your data

• Contractual necessity: Processing required to fulfil the sabong ph Terms and Conditions that you entered into at registration — including account management, transaction processing and game operation.
• Legal obligation: Processing required to comply with Philippine laws applicable to sabong ph as an operator, including anti-money laundering laws, identity verification requirements and lawful orders from competent public authorities.
• Legitimate interests: Processing for fraud prevention, account security, platform improvement and responsible gaming monitoring — where these interests do not override your fundamental rights and freedoms.
• Consent: For specific processing activities where consent is the most appropriate legal basis, sabong ph will request your explicit agreement at the relevant point. You have the right to withdraw consent at any time, though this may affect your ability to use certain features of the platform.

5. How we share your data

sabong ph does not sell your personal data to third parties. We share data only in the following circumstances and only to the extent strictly necessary:

• Payment processors: Your financial data is shared with the payment providers you use to deposit and withdraw — such as GCash, Maya, GrabPay and Philippine bank partners — for the purpose of processing your transactions.
• Identity verification providers: Where third-party identity verification services are used by sabong ph, relevant identity data is shared with those providers under contractual data protection terms.
• Game software providers: Certain game-related data, such as game round identifiers and bet amounts, may be shared with the software providers who supply game titles available at sabong ph, for settlement and auditing purposes.
• Legal and regulatory authorities: sabong ph will disclose personal data to competent Philippine authorities where required by law, court order or lawful regulatory instruction. We will notify you of any such disclosure unless legally prohibited from doing so.
• Professional advisers: Legal, financial or security advisers may access personal data under strict confidentiality obligations where necessary to provide their services to sabong ph.

All third parties with whom sabong ph shares personal data are required to maintain appropriate data protection standards consistent with the Data Privacy Act of 2012 and the nature of the data shared.

6. Cookies and tracking technologies

sabong ph uses cookies and similar technologies on the platform to support core functionality, maintain session security and analyse aggregate usage patterns. The types of cookies used are described below.

sabong ph does not use third-party advertising cookies or behavioural tracking technologies for the purpose of serving targeted advertising. You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings, though disabling essential cookies may prevent you from logging in or using key platform features correctly.

7. Data security

sabong ph implements technical and organisational security measures to protect personal data from unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration or destruction. These include:

• Encryption of data transmitted between your device and the sabong ph platform.
• Encryption of sensitive data stored in sabong ph systems.
• Role-based access controls limiting internal access to personal data to personnel with a specific operational need.
• Regular security reviews and monitoring of sabong ph systems for anomalous activity.
• Incident response procedures for managing any data breach, including notification obligations under Philippine law.

While sabong ph takes data security seriously, no internet-based system can provide absolute guarantees against all threats. Players also have a responsibility to maintain the security of their own account credentials. Never share your sabong ph password or one-time verification codes with anyone — including individuals claiming to be sabong ph support staff.

8. Data retention

sabong ph retains personal data for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this policy, or as required by applicable Philippine law. In practice, this means:

• Active account data is retained for as long as your sabong ph account remains active.
• Transaction records are retained for a minimum of five years from the date of the transaction, in line with anti-money laundering record-keeping requirements applicable in the Philippines.
• Identity verification documents are retained for the period required by applicable compliance obligations, typically five years from the end of the business relationship.
• Support communications are retained for up to three years from the date of the communication, to allow for the resolution of follow-up queries or disputes.
• Closed account data is retained for the minimum period required by law and then securely deleted or anonymised.

When personal data is no longer required and no legal retention obligation applies, sabong ph will securely delete or irreversibly anonymise it.
