phcas Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

This Privacy Policy sets out how phcas collects, processes, stores, and protects the personal information of players registered on the phcas platform at phcas.onl. It applies to all users who access the website or create an account, regardless of the device used to access it.

By registering on phcas, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy and agree to the collection and use of your information as described here. If you do not agree with how we handle personal data, you should not use the platform.

phcas may update this policy from time to time. The effective date at the top of this page will reflect the most recent revision. We encourage you to check back periodically.

2. Information We Collect

We only collect information that is necessary to provide and improve the phcas experience, comply with legal requirements, and keep your account secure. The types of data we collect include:

Information You Provide Directly

• Account registration details — full name, date of birth, email address, mobile number, and residential address in the Philippines.
• KYC documents — a valid Philippine government-issued ID such as a PhilSys national ID, passport, or driver's licence, submitted during identity verification.
• Payment information — the name and details of your registered e-wallet (GCash or Maya) or Philippine bank account used for deposits and withdrawals. Full payment credentials are handled by our payment processors, not stored directly by phcas.
• Communications — messages you send to our support team, including any attachments or screenshots you choose to share.

Information Collected Automatically

• Device and browser data — IP address, browser type and version, operating system, and screen resolution.
• Usage data — pages visited, games played, session duration, click patterns, and navigation paths within the platform.
• Cookies and similar technologies — session cookies used to keep you logged in, preference cookies that remember your settings, and analytics cookies that help us understand how players use the site. See Section 7 for more on cookies.

3. How We Use Your Information

The personal data phcas collects is used for the following purposes:

4. Sharing Your Information

phcas does not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties for their own marketing use. We may share your data only in the following circumstances:

• Payment processors — When you make a deposit or request a withdrawal, relevant transaction data is shared with our Philippine payment partners (such as GCash or Maya's processing infrastructure) solely to complete the transaction.
• Identity verification providers — KYC checks may involve a third-party verification service that processes your submitted documents. These providers operate under strict data processing agreements and are not permitted to use your data for any other purpose.
• Platform and technology providers — Service providers who help us run the platform, such as hosting and analytics services, may have limited access to usage data under contractual obligations to maintain confidentiality.
• Legal and regulatory authorities — Where required by Philippine law or a valid legal order, phcas may disclose personal information to the appropriate government bodies or law enforcement agencies.

5. How Long We Keep Your Data

We retain your personal information for as long as your phcas account is active. Once your account is closed, we may continue to hold certain records for a period required by applicable law — for example, transaction records and KYC documents that must be retained for anti-money laundering compliance purposes.

Usage and analytics data that does not identify you personally may be retained in aggregated form for longer periods to help us improve the platform. When data is no longer needed, it is securely deleted or anonymised.

6. How We Protect Your Data

phcas takes the security of your personal information seriously. The protective measures we have in place include:

• SSL/TLS encryption on all data transmitted between your browser or mobile device and our servers.
• OTP authentication to prevent unauthorised account access, even if login credentials are compromised.
• Access controls limiting internal access to personal data to authorised personnel on a need-to-know basis.
• Regular security reviews of platform infrastructure to identify and address potential vulnerabilities.
• Secure storage of KYC documents and payment records, with encryption at rest.

While we use strong technical measures, no online platform can guarantee absolute security. You also play a role in keeping your account safe — use a strong, unique password for phcas, never share your OTP codes, and contact support immediately if you suspect your account has been accessed without your permission.

7. Cookies

phcas uses cookies and similar technologies to make the platform work properly and to understand how players use it. Here is a summary of the cookies we use:

• Essential cookies — Required for the platform to function. These include session cookies that keep you logged in during your visit. Disabling them will prevent you from using the site.
• Preference cookies — Remember your settings, such as display preferences, so you do not need to set them again on each visit.
• Analytics cookies — Help us understand which pages and features players use most often. This data is aggregated and does not identify you individually.

Most modern browsers allow you to manage or block cookies through your browser settings. Blocking essential cookies will affect your ability to log in and use the phcas platform normally.

8. Your Rights as a Player

As a registered phcas player based in the Philippines, you have the following rights regarding your personal data:

• Right to access — You can request a copy of the personal information phcas holds about you.
• Right to correction — If any of your personal details are inaccurate or out of date, you can ask us to correct them. You can update basic account information directly from your account settings.
• Right to erasure — You may request deletion of your personal data, subject to legal retention requirements. For example, transaction records we are legally required to keep cannot be immediately deleted.
• Right to object — You can opt out of receiving marketing communications from phcas at any time by updating your notification preferences in your account settings or contacting support.
• Right to data portability — You may request a copy of your data in a structured, machine-readable format where technically feasible.

To exercise any of these rights, contact the phcas support team. Details are available on the About Us page. We will respond to verified requests within a reasonable timeframe in accordance with applicable law.

9. Minors

phcas is strictly for adults aged 21 and above. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under the age of 21. If we become aware that a minor has registered an account, that account will be closed immediately and all associated data will be deleted. If you believe a minor has accessed phcas, please contact our support team right away.

10. Changes to This Policy

phcas may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, platform features, or applicable law. When we make significant changes, we will post the updated policy on this page with a revised effective date. For material changes, we may also notify you directly through your registered email address or via a notice on the platform.

Continued use of phcas after a policy update indicates your acceptance of the revised terms. If you have questions about any changes, you are welcome to reach out to our support team or check the FAQ for guidance.
