Privacy Policy
for 77pht
77pht is committed to safeguarding the personal data of every Filipino player on our platform. This Privacy Policy explains what data we collect, why we collect it, how it is used, and the rights you hold under Philippine law.
At 77pht, your privacy is not an afterthought. These six principles guide everything we do with your personal data.
Minimal Data Collection
77pht only collects personal data that is strictly necessary for account registration, identity verification, payment processing, and regulatory compliance. We do not collect data just because we can.
No Sale of Your Data
Your personal information is never sold, rented, or traded to third-party marketers. Data shared with partners is limited to what is legally required — and nothing more.
Bank-Grade Encryption
All data transmitted between your device and 77pht servers is protected by TLS 1.3 encryption. Sensitive fields such as passwords and payment details are encrypted at rest using AES-256.
Your Rights Are Respected
Under the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012, you have the right to access, correct, and request deletion of your personal data. 77pht has clear processes to honour every request promptly.
PAGCOR & NPC Compliance
77pht operates under PAGCOR oversight and in full compliance with the National Privacy Commission (NPC) guidelines. Our data practices are audited regularly by independent compliance reviewers.
Transparent Policy Updates
Whenever this Privacy Policy is materially updated, registered players are notified via email at least 14 days before changes take effect. You will never be surprised by a silent policy change.
01 Introduction
77pht (referred to in this document as "we", "us", or "our") operates the online gaming platform accessible at 77pht.net and any associated mobile or Progressive Web App (PWA) versions (collectively, the "Platform"). We are committed to protecting and respecting the privacy of every person who interacts with our Platform.
This Privacy Policy describes in clear terms how 77pht collects, uses, stores, discloses, and protects your personal data. It has been drafted in accordance with the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act No. 10173), its Implementing Rules and Regulations, and the applicable guidelines issued by the National Privacy Commission (NPC) of the Philippines.
We strongly encourage you to read this policy in full. If anything is unclear, please contact our Data Protection Officer (DPO) using the details provided in Section 15.
02 Scope & Applicability
This Privacy Policy applies to all personal data processed by 77pht in connection with:
- Registration and maintenance of a player account on the Platform;
- All financial transactions, including deposits and withdrawals, processed through the Platform;
- Your participation in any game, promotion, VIP programme, or tournament hosted by 77pht;
- Any communication you initiate with 77pht support, including live chat, email, and feedback submissions;
- Your browsing and interaction with any page or feature of the Platform, whether or not you are logged in.
This policy applies to all players located in the Philippines, including those accessing the Platform from Manila, Cebu, Davao, Quezon City, Makati, and all other regions across the archipelago. It does not apply to third-party websites that may be linked from our Platform — always review the privacy policy of any external site you visit.
03 Personal Data We Collect
77pht collects the following categories of personal data, depending on your level of engagement with the Platform:
3.1 Registration & Identity Data
| Data Type | Examples | Required? |

| Date of birth | Used to verify 21+ age requirement | Yes |

3.2 Financial & Transaction Data
When you make deposits or request withdrawals, we collect payment method details sufficient to process the transaction. For GCash and PayMaya this includes your registered mobile number. For bank transfers (BPI, BDO, Metrobank, UnionBank) this includes account name, account number, and bank branch. We do not store full card numbers or CVV codes on our servers.
3.3 Gaming & Activity Data
We collect records of all game sessions, wager amounts, win/loss outcomes, bonus usage, and session durations. This data is used for account integrity, responsible gaming monitoring, dispute resolution, and regulatory reporting to PAGCOR.
3.4 Technical & Device Data
We automatically collect IP address, device type and model, operating system version, browser type, screen resolution, and session timestamps. This technical data is used for fraud detection, security monitoring, and Platform optimisation.
3.5 Communications Data
Records of all support interactions — including live chat transcripts, emails, and submitted feedback forms — are retained for quality assurance, dispute resolution, and regulatory compliance purposes.
04 How We Collect Your Data
77pht collects personal data through the following means:
- Directly from you — when you register, complete KYC verification, make a deposit, contact support, or respond to a survey;
- Automatically — through cookies, web beacons, and server logs as you browse and interact with the Platform;
- From payment providers — GCash, PayMaya, and partner banks may share transaction confirmation data with us to reconcile payments;
- From identity verification partners — third-party KYC service providers may share verification results with us, but raw document images are processed securely and not retained beyond the verification period;
- From PAGCOR and regulatory databases — we may receive data from PAGCOR regarding self-exclusion lists, problem gambling registries, or regulatory directives concerning your account.
05 Purpose of Processing
77pht processes your personal data only for specific, legitimate purposes. The table below outlines the primary purposes and the corresponding data categories used:

77pht does not use your personal data for automated individual decision-making that produces significant legal effects on you without human oversight and the ability to request review.
06 Legal Basis for Processing
Under the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012, 77pht processes your personal data on the following legal bases:
- Contractual necessity — processing required to perform our contractual obligations to you as a registered player, including operating your account, processing deposits, and paying out winnings;
- Legal obligation — processing required to comply with PAGCOR regulations, Anti-Money Laundering Act (AMLA) obligations, and NPC directives;
- Legitimate interests — processing necessary for fraud prevention, Platform security, and responsible gaming monitoring, where those interests are not overridden by your privacy rights;
- Consent — for optional processing such as marketing communications and personalised promotional offers. You may withdraw consent at any time by updating your account communication preferences or contacting support.
07 Data Sharing & Disclosure
77pht does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data. We share data only in the following limited circumstances:
- Payment processors — GCash, PayMaya, and partner banks receive only the data required to complete your transaction;
- KYC and identity verification providers — securely process your submitted documents to confirm your identity and age; they are contractually bound to use your data only for this purpose;
- PAGCOR — as our regulatory authority, PAGCOR may require us to disclose player account data, gaming activity records, and financial transaction reports as part of its oversight mandate;
- Anti-Money Laundering Council (AMLC) — we are legally required to file Suspicious Transaction Reports (STRs) and Currency Transaction Reports (CTRs) where thresholds or criteria under the AMLA are met;
- Law enforcement and courts — we will disclose personal data in response to a valid court order, subpoena, or lawful request from a Philippine law enforcement authority;
- Game content providers — third-party game studios and live dealer providers may receive anonymised session data for RNG certification and technical audit purposes only. They do not receive your name, contact details, or financial information;
- IT and security service providers — hosting, cloud storage, and cybersecurity vendors operating under strict data processing agreements are permitted to access data only as necessary to provide their contracted services.
08 Data Retention
77pht retains personal data for no longer than is necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, subject to mandatory regulatory retention periods. The following retention schedule applies:
| Data Category | Retention Period | Basis |
|---|---|---|
| Account & identity data | 5 years after account closure | PAGCOR / AMLA requirement |
| Financial transaction records | 5 years from transaction date | AMLA / tax compliance |
| Gaming activity logs | 3 years from session date | PAGCOR regulatory reporting |
| KYC documents | 5 years after account closure | AMLA / NPC guidance |
| Support communications | 3 years from last interaction | Legitimate interest / dispute resolution |
| Technical / device logs | 12 months from collection | Security monitoring |
| Marketing preferences | Until consent is withdrawn | Consent |
After the applicable retention period, data is securely deleted or anonymised in accordance with NPC-approved data disposal procedures. Anonymised, aggregated data may be retained indefinitely for statistical and business intelligence purposes, as it can no longer be attributed to any individual.
09 Security Measures
77pht implements a layered security framework to protect your personal data from unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. Our key technical and organisational security measures include:
- TLS 1.3 encryption for all data in transit between your device and our servers;
- AES-256 encryption for sensitive data stored at rest, including passwords (hashed with bcrypt), payment credentials, and KYC document references;
- Multi-factor authentication (MFA) options available to all registered players for account login;
- Role-based access controls (RBAC) — 77pht staff can only access player data to the extent required by their specific job function;
- Regular penetration testing conducted by independent cybersecurity firms to identify and remediate vulnerabilities;
- 24/7 security monitoring and intrusion detection systems (IDS) covering all production infrastructure;
- Data breach response plan — in the event of a personal data breach, affected players and the NPC will be notified within 72 hours of discovery, in line with NPC Circular No. 16-03.
While 77pht takes all reasonable precautions, no digital platform can guarantee absolute security. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your own account credentials and for notifying us immediately if you suspect unauthorised access to your account.

| Marketing | Personalised promotional content within the Platform for logged-in players | Yes — opt-in via account preferences |

11 Your Data Privacy Rights
Under the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012, you are entitled to the following rights in relation to your personal data held by 77pht. We are committed to honouring each of these rights within the timeframes prescribed by law.
Right to Access
You may request a copy of the personal data we hold about you, along with information on how it is being used and with whom it has been shared. We will respond within 15 business days of a verified request.
Right to Rectification
If any personal data we hold about you is inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to have it corrected. Basic account details such as contact number and address can be updated directly from your account settings.
Right to Erasure
You may request deletion of your personal data where it is no longer necessary for the purpose it was collected, or where you withdraw consent and no other legal basis applies. Mandatory regulatory retention periods may limit the scope of erasure requests.
Right to Object
You may object to the processing of your personal data for direct marketing purposes at any time. You may also object to processing based on legitimate interests, and we will assess whether our interests override your privacy rights on a case-by-case basis.
Right to Data Portability
You may request your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format (such as CSV or JSON) where technically feasible and where processing is based on consent or contractual necessity.
Right to Lodge a Complaint
If you believe 77pht has mishandled your personal data, you have the right to lodge a complaint directly with the National Privacy Commission (NPC) of the Philippines at privacy.gov.ph. We encourage you to contact our DPO first so we have an opportunity to resolve your concern.
12 Children & Minors
If 77pht becomes aware that personal data has been collected from a person under 21 years of age, the account will be immediately suspended, all data associated with the account will be permanently deleted, and any deposits made will be returned to the source payment method after identity verification of the rightful account holder.
Parents and guardians who believe a minor may have accessed the Platform using their details are encouraged to contact our support team immediately via live chat so that the account can be investigated and secured without delay.
13 Cross-Border Data Transfers
77pht primarily processes and stores player data on servers located within the Philippines. In limited circumstances — such as where a game content provider or IT infrastructure partner operates facilities in another country — personal data may be transferred outside the Philippines.
Any cross-border transfer of personal data is conducted in compliance with Section 21 of the Data Privacy Act of 2012 and the NPC's guidelines on cross-border data flows. Specifically, 77pht ensures that:
- The receiving country provides a comparable level of data protection, or
- Appropriate contractual safeguards are in place, including data processing agreements that incorporate NPC-approved standard contractual clauses, and
- The transfer is limited to the minimum data necessary for the specific processing purpose.
You may request details of any cross-border data transfers affecting your personal data by contacting our DPO.
14 Policy Amendments
77pht reserves the right to update or amend this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in applicable law, regulatory guidance from PAGCOR or the NPC, changes in our data processing practices, or improvements to our Platform.
