What Information Does phgo Collect and Why?

1. Information We Collect

When you register on phgo, we collect personal information that is necessary to create and manage your account, verify your identity, and comply with applicable regulations in the Philippines. This includes your full name, date of birth, email address, mobile number, and residential address. When you make a deposit or request a withdrawal, we also collect payment-related information such as your GCash number or bank account details — though we do not store full card numbers or sensitive authentication credentials. We may also collect technical data such as your device type, browser version, IP address, and session activity logs to help us maintain platform security and improve your experience. All information collected is used solely for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy and is not sold to third parties for marketing or advertising purposes.

2. How We Use Your Information

phgo uses the personal information we collect to operate and improve the platform, process your deposits and account transactions, verify your eligibility to play, and respond to your support enquiries. We may use your contact details to send you important account notifications, security alerts, or updates about changes to our Terms and Conditions or this Privacy Policy. Your gameplay and session data may be analysed in aggregate to help us understand how Filipino players use the platform and to identify areas for improvement. We do not use your personal data to build advertising profiles or share it with third-party marketing companies. If you have questions about how your data is being used, you can reach our support team through the FAQ page.

3. Sharing of Your Information

phgo does not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to any third party. We may share your data with trusted service providers who assist us in operating the platform — such as payment processors, identity verification services, and technical infrastructure providers — but only to the extent necessary for them to perform their services on our behalf. All third-party service providers are required to handle your data in accordance with applicable data protection standards and are prohibited from using it for their own purposes. We may also disclose your information to regulatory authorities or law enforcement agencies in the Philippines if required to do so by law or in response to a valid legal request. In all other circumstances, your personal data remains within the phgo platform environment.

4. Data Storage and Security

Your personal information is stored on secure servers with access controls, encryption, and monitoring systems in place to protect against unauthorised access, loss, or misuse. phgo applies industry-standard technical and organisational measures to safeguard your data at every stage — from collection through to storage and deletion. While no online platform can guarantee absolute security, we continuously review and update our security practices to address emerging risks. Account passwords are stored in hashed form and are never accessible in plain text by phgo staff. If you suspect that your account has been compromised, please change your password immediately and contact support through the FAQ page.

5. How Long We Keep Your Data

phgo retains your personal information for as long as your account remains active and for a reasonable period thereafter, as required by applicable laws and regulations in the Philippines. Transaction records and identity verification documents may be retained for a longer period to comply with anti-money laundering and financial record-keeping obligations. Once the applicable retention period has expired and there is no legal basis for continued storage, your data will be securely deleted or anonymised. If you close your account, we will process your data deletion request in accordance with our retention schedule and applicable legal requirements. You may request information about how long specific categories of your data are retained by contacting us through the FAQ page.

6. Your Rights Over Your Personal Data

As a player based in the Philippines, you have the right to request access to the personal information phgo holds about you, to request corrections if any details are inaccurate, and to request deletion of your data where there is no longer a legal basis for us to retain it. You also have the right to object to certain types of data processing and to request that we restrict how we use your information while a dispute is being resolved. To exercise any of these rights, please submit your request through the support channels available on the FAQ page, and we will respond within a reasonable timeframe. phgo is committed to handling all data rights requests fairly, transparently, and in accordance with applicable Philippine data protection law.

7. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

phgo uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to maintain your session when you are logged in, remember your preferences, and collect anonymised analytics data about how the platform is used. Essential cookies are required for the platform to function correctly and cannot be disabled. Analytics cookies help us understand which features Filipino players use most frequently so we can continue improving the experience. We do not use cookies to track your activity across third-party websites or to serve targeted advertising. You can manage your cookie preferences through your browser settings, though disabling essential cookies may affect your ability to use certain features of the phgo platform.
