This Privacy Policy applies to all personal data collected through the 8k818 website, account registration process, customer support communications, and related services. It does not apply to third-party websites or services that may be linked to or mentioned on the platform.
2 Data We Collect
8k818 collects only the personal information necessary to operate the platform safely, comply with applicable legal requirements, and provide Filipino users with a functional account experience. Below is a clear breakdown.
| Category | Examples | When collected |
|---|---|---|
| Identity data | Full legal name, date of birth, government-issued ID number | Registration and identity verification |

3 How We Use Your Data
8k818 uses your personal data for the following specific purposes, and no others without your separate consent:
- Account creation and management — setting up and maintaining your 8k818 account, including authentication and password recovery.
- Identity verification (KYC) — confirming that you are an eligible adult, that your identity matches your payment methods, and that your account is not being used fraudulently.
- Payment processing — facilitating deposits and withdrawals in Philippine pesos through your chosen local payment method.
- Fraud prevention and security — monitoring transactions and account activity for signs of unauthorised access, money laundering, or prohibited conduct as outlined in our Terms and Conditions.
- Regulatory compliance — meeting obligations under applicable Philippine law, including anti-money laundering regulations and data privacy requirements.
- Customer support — responding to your queries, complaints, and account-related requests.
- Platform improvement — understanding how users navigate 8k818 in aggregate to improve functionality and fix issues.
- Responsible gaming — identifying patterns that may indicate problematic gaming behaviour, consistent with our responsible gaming obligations.
We do not use your personal data to build profiles for sale to third-party advertisers. We do not send unsolicited marketing to users who have not opted in. If you receive a communication claiming to be from 8k818 that does not match the email address support@8k818.best, treat it with caution and do not click any links.
4 Legal Basis for Processing
Under the Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act No. 10173) and its implementing rules, 8k818 processes personal data on the following legal grounds:
- Contractual necessity — processing your identity data, contact data, and financial data is necessary to provide the services you signed up for when creating a 8k818 account.
- Legal obligation — processing for identity verification, fraud prevention, and anti-money laundering compliance is required by applicable Philippine law regardless of consent.
- Legitimate interests — processing technical data and transaction data to maintain platform security, prevent fraud, and improve service quality, where these interests are not overridden by your rights.
- Consent — where we send optional communications, such as promotional notifications, we do so only with your explicit opt-in consent, which you may withdraw at any time.
5 Sharing Your Personal Data
8k818 does not sell your personal data. We share it only in the limited circumstances below, and only to the extent necessary for the stated purpose.
- Payment processors — GCash, Maya, GrabPay, Coins.ph, BDO, BPI, UnionBank, and Visa/Mastercard network providers receive only the transaction data needed to process your deposit or withdrawal. These providers operate under their own privacy policies and are subject to applicable Philippine financial regulations.
- Identity verification services — third-party KYC providers who assist 8k818 in confirming user identities receive only the data needed for verification. They are contractually prohibited from using your data for any other purpose.
- Regulatory and law enforcement authorities — 8k818 will disclose personal data to government agencies, regulators, or law enforcement bodies where required to do so by law, court order, or regulatory obligation. We do not volunteer information beyond what is legally required.
- Fraud prevention partners — in cases of suspected fraud, money laundering, or prohibited conduct, limited data may be shared with specialist fraud prevention organisations operating under equivalent data protection standards.
- Professional advisers — legal, accounting, or auditing firms engaged by 8k818 may access personal data strictly as necessary and under confidentiality obligations.
What we will never do: 8k818 will not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to marketers, data brokers, or any third party for commercial purposes unrelated to your 8k818 account.
6 How We Store and Protect Your Data
Personal data collected by 8k818 is stored on secure servers. We apply technical and organisational security measures that are appropriate to the nature of the data and the risks involved. These include:
- Encrypted transmission of data between your device and 8k818 servers using industry-standard protocols.
- Access controls that limit which 8k818 staff members can view personal or financial data, on a need-to-know basis.
- Regular security reviews of systems that store or process personal information.
- Two-factor authentication options for account access to reduce the risk of unauthorised login.
- Secure disposal procedures for personal data that is no longer needed, consistent with the retention periods in Section 7.
While 8k818 takes data security seriously, no internet-based system can guarantee absolute security. You also have a role to play: use a strong, unique password for your 8k818 account, keep your OTPs private, and log out after each session.
If 8k818 becomes aware of a data breach that is likely to result in a risk to your rights and freedoms, we will notify you and the relevant Philippine regulatory authority in accordance with applicable law and within the timeframes required.
7 How Long We Keep Your Data
8k818 retains personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes described in this policy, or as required by applicable Philippine law. The general retention guidelines below apply:
| Data type | Retention period | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Account and identity data | Duration of account + 5 years after closure | Legal and regulatory compliance |
| Financial and transaction records | Minimum 5 years from transaction date | Anti-money laundering regulations |
| KYC verification documents | Duration of account + 5 years | Regulatory requirement |
| Support communications | 3 years from last contact | Dispute resolution and service improvement |
| Technical / session data | Up to 12 months | Security monitoring and fraud detection |
| Marketing consent records | Until consent is withdrawn + 1 year | Proof of consent |
When personal data is no longer required, 8k818 will securely delete or anonymise it so that it can no longer be associated with your identity.
8 Cookies and Similar Technologies
8k818 uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to operate the platform correctly and understand how users interact with it. Here is what we use and why:
- Essential cookies — required for core platform functions such as keeping you logged in during a session and maintaining your account preferences. These cannot be switched off without disrupting your 8k818 experience.
- Security cookies — used to detect and prevent fraudulent login attempts and unusual account activity.
- Performance cookies — collect anonymised data about page load times, error rates, and navigation patterns so we can identify and fix technical issues.
- Functional cookies — remember choices you have made, such as your preferred language or display settings, so you do not have to set them again each visit.
8k818 does not use cookies to serve third-party advertising or to track your activity across other websites. You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings. Disabling essential cookies may prevent certain 8k818 features from working correctly.
9 Your Rights as a Data Subject
As a Filipino user, you have rights under the Data Privacy Act of 2012 (RA 10173) with respect to the personal data 8k818 holds about you. These rights are summarised below.
Right of Access
Request a copy of the personal data 8k818 holds about you and information about how it is used.
Right to Correction
Ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete personal data in your 8k818 account without undue delay.
Right to Erasure
Request deletion of your personal data where it is no longer needed for the original purpose, subject to legal retention obligations.
Right to Object
Object to processing based on legitimate interests, particularly where it affects your rights. Some processing cannot be stopped where it is legally required.
Right to Portability
Request your personal data in a structured, commonly used format so you can transfer it to another service where technically feasible.
Right to Withdraw Consent
Withdraw consent to optional processing — such as marketing communications — at any time without affecting the lawfulness of prior processing.
To exercise any of these rights, contact us at support@8k818.best with your registered account name and a clear description of your request. We will respond within the timeframes required by applicable Philippine privacy law. We may need to verify your identity before processing certain requests.
If you believe 8k818 has not handled your personal data correctly, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the National Privacy Commission of the Philippines (NPC), which is the relevant supervisory authority.
10 Children and Minors
The 8k818 platform is strictly for eligible adults who meet the minimum age requirement under applicable Philippine law. We do not knowingly collect personal data from minors. If we become aware that a minor has registered an account or submitted personal data, we will close the account and delete the associated data as promptly as possible.
If you are a parent or guardian and believe that a minor in your care has created a 8k818 account, please contact us immediately at support@8k818.best so we can take appropriate action.
Keeping minors away from online gaming platforms is a shared responsibility. 8k818 uses age verification tools as part of the registration process, but parental awareness and supervision at home remain equally important.
