We collect only the information necessary to provide and improve our services. We do not collect sensitive personal information beyond what is required for verification and regulatory compliance.

2. How We Use Your Information

The personal data we collect is used solely for the following purposes:

  • Verifying your identity and age to comply with applicable Philippine regulations on online gaming.
  • Processing deposits, withdrawals, and other account transactions in Philippine pesos.
  • Sending account-related notifications, security alerts, and customer support responses.
  • Monitoring platform activity to detect fraud, protect against abuse, and maintain fair play for all users.
  • Improving our platform performance, fixing technical issues, and enhancing the overall player experience on mobile and desktop.
  • Complying with legal obligations, including requests from Philippine regulatory bodies or law enforcement agencies where required by law.

We do not use your personal information to build advertising profiles or sell data to third-party marketing companies. Any communication we send related to promotions will be limited to phluck platform offers and can be opted out of through your account settings.

3. Sharing of Your Data

phluck does not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties for commercial purposes. We may share limited data with trusted third parties only in the following circumstances:

  • Payment processors — to facilitate deposits and withdrawals in Philippine pesos through approved payment channels.
  • Identity verification providers — to confirm your age and identity as required under Philippine gaming regulations.
  • Regulatory and legal authorities — when required by law, court order, or official government request applicable in the Philippines.
  • Platform security partners — to detect and prevent fraudulent transactions and protect the integrity of the platform.

Any third party with whom we share data is contractually required to handle it securely and use it only for the purpose for which it was shared. We do not authorise third parties to use your data for their own marketing or profiling activities.

4. Data Retention

We retain your personal information for as long as your account remains active and for a reasonable period thereafter, as required by Philippine law or regulatory guidelines applicable to online gaming operators. Transaction records are typically retained for a minimum period to satisfy legal and audit requirements. If you close your account, we will delete or anonymise your personal data within a reasonable timeframe, except where retention is required by law. If you would like to know more about how long specific data is kept, you can reach our support team through the FAQ page.

We implement industry-standard technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal information from unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These measures include encryption of data in transit, secure storage protocols, access controls, and regular security reviews. While we take every reasonable precaution to protect your data, no online platform can guarantee absolute security. You also play an important role by keeping your login credentials confidential and by notifying us immediately if you suspect any unauthorised access to your account.
