Data Protection & Member Privacy
ah77 Privacy Policy – How Your Personal Data Is Handled
At ah77, protecting the personal information of every member in the Philippines is a core responsibility we take seriously. This Privacy Policy explains what data we collect when you use our platform, how we use and store it, who we may share it with, and what rights you have over your own information. By registering an account or continuing to use the ah77 platform, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this policy. We encourage you to review this page periodically, as it may be updated to reflect changes in our practices or applicable Philippine law. If you have questions about how your data is handled, the FAQ page covers common privacy-related queries.
What Information We Collect and Why
When you register and use the ah77 platform, we collect certain personal information that is necessary to operate your account, process transactions, and comply with Philippine gaming regulations. The types of data we collect fall into three broad categories: information you provide directly, information generated by your use of the platform, and information we may receive from third-party verification services where required by law.
Registration Information
When you create an account on ah77, we collect your full name, date of birth, email address, mobile number, and a username and password of your choosing. This information is required to verify that you meet the minimum age requirement of 21 years under Philippine gaming law, and to ensure that each account belongs to a unique, identifiable individual. We may also ask for your residential address in the Philippines to comply with anti-money laundering obligations. All registration data is stored securely and is never shared with unaffiliated third parties for marketing purposes. You are responsible for ensuring that the information you provide is accurate and kept up to date.
Transaction and Payment Data
Every deposit and withdrawal you make on the platform generates a transaction record that includes the amount in Philippine pesos, the payment method used, the date and time, and the outcome of the transaction. We retain these records as required by Philippine financial regulations and to resolve any disputes that may arise regarding your account balance. Payment method details such as e-wallet account numbers or bank reference numbers are stored only to the extent necessary to process and verify transactions. We do not store full card numbers or sensitive authentication credentials on our servers. Transaction history is accessible to you at any time through your account dashboard.
Gaming Activity Records
The platform automatically records your gaming activity, including which games you play — such as online bingo, slot games, or sports betting — the bets you place, the outcomes, and the duration of your sessions. This data is used to ensure fair play, detect unusual patterns that may indicate problem gambling, and comply with regulatory reporting requirements in the Philippines. Gaming activity records also help us improve the platform experience and tailor relevant content to your preferences. We do not use your gaming data to target you with third-party advertising. You may request a summary of your gaming history by contacting our support team.
Device and Technical Data
When you access ah77 through your mobile browser or any other device, we automatically collect certain technical information including your IP address, device type, operating system, browser version, and session timestamps. This data is used for security purposes — for example, to detect unauthorised login attempts or suspicious access patterns — and to ensure the platform functions correctly across different devices commonly used by Filipino members. We do not use device data to build advertising profiles or share it with data brokers. Technical logs are retained for a limited period and then deleted in accordance with our data retention schedule. If you access the platform from multiple devices, each session is logged separately for security monitoring.
Your Rights Over Your Personal Data
As a member based in the Philippines, you have specific rights over the personal information that ah77 holds about you, in accordance with the Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act No. 10173) and its implementing rules. We are committed to honouring these rights promptly and transparently. The following cards outline the key rights available to you and how to exercise them.
Right to Access
You have the right to request a copy of the personal data we hold about you at any time. We will provide this information within a reasonable timeframe and in a format that is easy to understand. Access requests can be submitted through the contact details provided on this platform. We may ask you to verify your identity before releasing any personal data to protect against unauthorised disclosure. There is no fee for a standard access request.
Right to Correction
If any of the personal information we hold about you is inaccurate, incomplete, or outdated, you have the right to request that we correct it. You can update basic account details such as your mobile number or email address directly through your account settings. For corrections to identity documents or other verified information, please contact our support team with the relevant supporting documents. We will process correction requests as quickly as possible and notify you once the update has been made. Keeping your information accurate helps us serve you better and ensures compliance with Philippine regulations.
Right to Erasure
You may request the deletion of your personal data where it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, or where you withdraw your consent and there is no other legal basis for processing. Please note that certain data — such as transaction records and identity verification documents — must be retained for a minimum period under Philippine anti-money laundering and gaming regulations, and cannot be deleted on request during that period. Once the mandatory retention period has passed, we will delete or anonymise your data upon a valid erasure request. Closing your account does not automatically trigger immediate deletion of all data.
Right to Object
You have the right to object to the processing of your personal data for certain purposes, including direct marketing communications from ah77. If you no longer wish to receive promotional messages, you can opt out at any time by updating your communication preferences in your account settings or by contacting our support team. Objecting to marketing communications will not affect your ability to use the platform or access your account. We will honour all valid objection requests within a reasonable period. Note that we may still send you essential service communications such as account security alerts and transaction confirmations.
Data Portability
Where technically feasible, you have the right to receive a copy of your personal data in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format so that you can transfer it to another service provider. This right applies to data that you have provided to us directly and that we process on the basis of your consent or a contract with you. To submit a portability request, please contact our support team with your account details and specify the data you require. We will respond within a reasonable timeframe and provide the data in a format such as CSV or JSON where possible. This right does not extend to data that we are legally required to retain.
Right to Complain
If you believe that ah77 has not handled your personal data in accordance with the Data Privacy Act of 2012 or this Privacy Policy, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the National Privacy Commission of the Philippines. Before doing so, we encourage you to contact our support team first so that we have the opportunity to address your concern directly and promptly. We take all privacy complaints seriously and will investigate each one thoroughly. You will receive a response acknowledging your complaint and outlining the steps we are taking to resolve it. Filing a complaint with us does not affect your right to escalate the matter to the National Privacy Commission at any time.
Data Sharing, Retention, and Security
We do not sell your personal data to third parties. There are limited circumstances in which we may share your information with trusted partners or authorities, all of which are described clearly below. We also outline how long we keep your data and the security measures we have in place to protect it.
When We Share Your Data
ah77 may share your personal information with payment processors and e-wallet providers in the Philippines solely for the purpose of completing your deposit or withdrawal transactions. We may also share data with identity verification services to confirm your age and identity as required by Philippine gaming regulations. In cases where we are legally obligated — such as a court order, regulatory investigation, or anti-money laundering inquiry — we will disclose the minimum necessary information to the relevant Philippine authority. We do not share your data with advertisers, data brokers, or any unaffiliated commercial third parties. All third-party service providers we work with are contractually bound to handle your data securely and only for the specific purpose for which it was shared.
How Long We Keep Your Data
We retain your personal data for as long as your account remains active and for a period thereafter as required by Philippine law. Transaction records and identity verification documents are typically retained for a minimum of five years in compliance with anti-money laundering regulations. Gaming activity logs are kept for a shorter period unless they are relevant to an ongoing investigation or dispute. Once the applicable retention period has expired, your data is securely deleted or anonymised so that it can no longer be linked back to you. If you close your account, we will begin the deletion process for data that is not subject to a mandatory retention requirement.
Security Measures We Use
The ah77 platform uses industry-standard security measures to protect your personal data from unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. All data transmitted between your device and our servers is encrypted using secure protocols, and sensitive account information is stored using strong encryption at rest. We conduct regular security reviews and apply updates promptly to address any identified vulnerabilities. Access to personal data within our organisation is restricted to staff who need it to perform their job functions, and all such staff are trained on data protection obligations. Despite these measures, no online platform can guarantee absolute security, and we encourage you to use a strong, unique password and to keep your login credentials confidential.
Policy Updates and Contact
This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time to reflect changes in our data practices, new regulatory requirements, or improvements to our platform. When we make material changes, we will update the effective date shown at the bottom of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically so that you remain informed about how your data is being handled. If you have any questions, concerns, or requests relating to your personal data, please contact our support team using the email address listed in the footer of this page.
