1 Introduction
Welcome to the 8k8ag Privacy Policy. 8k8ag ("we", "our", "us") is the operator of the online casino platform accessible at https://8k8ag.com. We take the privacy of our Filipino players very seriously — not because we have to, but because it is the right thing to do.
This Privacy Policy explains what personal information 8k8ag collects when you use our platform, how we use that information, who we share it with, and what rights you have as a data subject under Philippine law. It applies to all users of the 8k8ag website, mobile browser platform, and any related services.
By registering an account or using any part of the 8k8ag platform, you confirm that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy. This document should be read together with our Terms and Conditions and our Responsible Gaming Policy.
Philippine Data Privacy Act: 8k8ag operates in full compliance with the Republic Act No. 10173, also known as the Data Privacy Act of 2012, and the implementing rules and regulations issued by the National Privacy Commission (NPC) of the Philippines.

3 How We Collect Your Data
8k8ag collects your personal data through the following means:
3.1 Information You Provide Directly
When you register an account, complete your KYC verification, make a deposit or withdrawal, contact our support team, or respond to a promotion, you provide us with personal data directly. This is the primary source of your information in our system.
3.2 Automated Data Collection
As you browse and use the 8k8ag platform, we automatically collect certain technical data. This includes your IP address, browser type, device identifiers, and activity logs. This data is collected via cookies and similar tracking technologies, which are described in more detail in Section 7 of this Privacy Policy.
3.3 Third-Party Sources
We may receive data about you from third-party sources in limited circumstances, such as:
- Payment processors (e.g., GCash, Maya, BDO) for transaction verification.
- Identity verification service providers used during KYC processing.
- Fraud prevention and anti-money laundering (AML) screening tools.
In all cases, third parties who share data with us are required to have a lawful basis for doing so and to have informed you that they may share your information with platforms like 8k8ag.
Your Data Protected in the City and Beyond
From Makati's financial district to your home province — 8k8ag's data protection follows you everywhere.
Safe to Play, Anywhere
Whether you're in Siargao or Cebu, your personal data on 8k8ag is encrypted and always secure.
4 How We Use Your Personal Data
8k8ag uses your personal data only for legitimate and clearly defined purposes. Here is a straightforward breakdown of what we do with your information:
4.1 Operating Your Account
We use your identity and contact data to create and manage your 8k8ag account, verify your age and identity, process your logins, and communicate important account-related updates to you — including security alerts, withdrawal confirmations, and policy change notifications.
4.2 Processing Transactions
Your financial data is used exclusively to process deposits and withdrawals through your chosen payment method. 8k8ag does not store full card numbers or complete e-wallet credentials. All payment processing is handled through secure, encrypted channels.
4.3 Legal and Regulatory Compliance
As a licensed gaming operator, 8k8ag is required by law to maintain certain records and conduct anti-money laundering (AML) checks. Your identity and transaction data may be used to fulfil these obligations and to cooperate with Philippine regulatory authorities when legally required to do so.
4.4 Fraud Prevention and Security
Technical and usage data helps us identify suspicious activity, prevent unauthorised account access, detect multiple account creation, and maintain the integrity of our gaming platform. This protects you as much as it protects 8k8ag.
4.5 Improving Our Platform
Aggregated and anonymised usage data helps us understand how Filipino players use 8k8ag so we can improve game performance, fix technical issues, and develop features that players actually want. This data does not identify you personally.
4.6 Marketing and Promotions
If you have opted in to receive marketing communications, we may use your contact and usage data to send you personalised offers, bonus announcements, and relevant updates about new games or features. You can opt out of marketing emails at any time by clicking the unsubscribe link in any email we send, or by contacting our support team.
5 Legal Basis for Processing
Under the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012, 8k8ag processes your personal data on the following legal grounds:
- Contractual necessity: Processing required to deliver the services you signed up for, including account management and transaction processing.
- Legitimate interests: Processing for fraud prevention, platform security, and business analytics — where our interests do not override your rights.
- Legal obligation: Processing required to comply with Philippine laws, including AML regulations and gaming licensing requirements.
- Consent: Processing for optional purposes such as marketing communications, where you have given your explicit, informed consent.
Note: Where we rely on your consent as a legal basis, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before the withdrawal.
6 Sharing Your Personal Data
8k8ag does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to any third party for their own marketing purposes. Full stop. We only share your data with third parties when there is a clear, legitimate reason to do so:
6.1 Service Providers
We work with trusted third-party service providers who help us operate the 8k8ag platform. These include payment processors (GCash, Maya, GrabPay, banks), identity verification providers, cloud hosting services, and customer support tools. All service providers are bound by contractual obligations to protect your data and use it only for the specific purpose we engage them for.
6.2 Regulatory Authorities
When required by Philippine law or a valid court order, 8k8ag may disclose your personal data to government bodies, law enforcement agencies, or gaming regulators. We will always seek to limit such disclosures to the minimum necessary.
6.3 Business Transfers
In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of 8k8ag's assets, your personal data may be transferred as part of that transaction. You will be notified of any such transfer and your rights will be maintained throughout.
8k8ag will never share your data with advertisers, data brokers, or any third party for commercial profiling without your explicit consent. Pag sinabi naming ligtas ang inyong data — totoo iyon.
7 Cookies and Tracking Technologies
8k8ag uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to improve your experience on our platform. A cookie is a small text file stored on your device by your browser when you visit a website. Here is how we use them:
7.1 Essential Cookies
These cookies are strictly necessary for the 8k8ag platform to function. They keep you logged in during your session, maintain your game state, and ensure security. You cannot opt out of essential cookies without disabling the platform entirely.
7.2 Analytics Cookies
We use analytics cookies to understand how players interact with 8k8ag — which pages are most visited, where users drop off, and which games are most popular. This data is aggregated and anonymised. It helps us make the platform better for everyone.
7.3 Preference Cookies
These cookies remember your preferences — such as your chosen language or display settings — so you do not have to set them every time you visit.
7.4 Marketing Cookies
If you have consented to marketing communications, we may use cookies to deliver relevant promotional content. You can withdraw this consent at any time through your account settings or by contacting our support team.
You can manage your cookie preferences through your browser settings at any time. Please note that disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of the 8k8ag platform.

Every peso deposited or withdrawn through 8k8ag is protected by bank-grade encryption and strict data handling protocols.
8 Data Retention
8k8ag retains your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by Philippine law. The following general retention periods apply:

- Transaction records: Retained for a minimum of 5 years in compliance with BSP and PAGCOR record-keeping requirements.

- Marketing data: Retained until you withdraw your consent or request erasure.
- Technical and usage data: Typically retained for 12–24 months in anonymised form.
When data is no longer required, it is securely deleted or anonymised so it can no longer be associated with you. We conduct regular data audits to ensure we are not holding data longer than necessary.
9 How We Keep Your Data Secure
8k8ag takes data security seriously and has implemented comprehensive technical and organisational measures to protect your personal information against unauthorised access, loss, destruction, or alteration. Our security measures include:

- Encrypted databases with access restricted to authorised personnel only.
- Multi-factor authentication (MFA) for all internal administrative access.
- Regular security audits and penetration testing by independent third-party experts.
- 24/7 system monitoring to detect and respond to any suspicious activity in real time.
- Staff training on data privacy and security best practices in line with the Philippine DPA.
Despite our best efforts, no online platform is 100% immune to security risks. If you suspect that your 8k8ag account has been compromised, please contact us immediately at support@8k8ag.com. We will act quickly to protect your account.
