5Legal Basis for Processing

Under the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012, vip778 processes your personal data on the following legal bases:

• Contractual necessity: Processing required to perform our contract with you — i.e., operating your vip778 account, processing transactions, and delivering gaming services.
• Legal obligation: Processing required to comply with PAGCOR licensing conditions, AMLA reporting obligations, tax regulations, and other applicable Philippine laws.
• Legitimate interests: Processing for fraud prevention, platform security, responsible gaming monitoring, and aggregated analytics, where these interests are not overridden by your data protection rights.

6Data Sharing and Disclosure

vip778 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data. We share personal data only in the following circumstances:

• Service providers: Trusted third-party vendors who assist in operating the vip778 platform, including KYC/identity verification providers, payment processors (GCash, PayMaya, banking partners), game software providers, cloud hosting providers, and customer support platform providers. All service providers are bound by data processing agreements that restrict their use of your data to the specific services they provide to vip778.
• Regulatory authorities: PAGCOR, the Anti-Money Laundering Council (AMLC), the National Privacy Commission (NPC), and other Philippine government authorities, where disclosure is required by law, court order, or regulatory direction.
• Law enforcement: Philippine law enforcement agencies, where disclosure is required in connection with the investigation or prosecution of criminal activity, including fraud and money laundering.
• Business transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or part of vip778's business, your personal data may be transferred to the acquiring entity, subject to equivalent data protection obligations. You will be notified of any such transfer.

In all cases of data sharing, vip778 applies the principle of data minimisation — sharing only the minimum personal data necessary for the specific purpose.

While vip778 takes all reasonable steps to protect your personal data, no online platform can guarantee absolute security. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account login credentials and for notifying vip778 immediately if you suspect unauthorised access to your account.

11Children's Privacy and Age Restriction

The vip778 platform is strictly intended for adults aged 21 years and above, in accordance with Philippine law and PAGCOR regulations governing casino-style gambling. vip778 does not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under the age of 21.

During registration, all applicants are required to confirm that they are at least 21 years of age and to submit a valid Philippine government-issued ID for age verification. Any account found to belong to a person under 21 will be immediately suspended, all balances forfeited, and the matter reported to PAGCOR.

If you believe that a person under 21 has registered a vip778 account, please contact our support team immediately so that we can investigate and take appropriate action.

12Cross-Border Data Transfers

vip778 primarily processes and stores personal data within the Republic of the Philippines. In certain circumstances, personal data may be transferred to or accessed from locations outside the Philippines — for example, where vip778 uses cloud infrastructure or game software providers with servers in other jurisdictions.

Where personal data is transferred outside the Philippines, vip778 ensures that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your data to a standard equivalent to that required under the Philippine Data Privacy Act. These safeguards may include:

• Data processing agreements incorporating standard contractual clauses approved by the National Privacy Commission.
• Transfers to jurisdictions that the NPC has determined provide an adequate level of data protection.
• Binding corporate rules where transfers are made within a corporate group.

You may request information about the specific safeguards applicable to any cross-border transfer of your personal data by contacting our Data Protection Officer.
