Your privacy matters to us. This page explains exactly what personal information panalowin collects, why we collect it, how we use it, and the rights you hold as a player based in the Philippines. Reading this takes just a few minutes and is well worth your time.
When you register and use the panalowin platform, we collect certain personal information that is necessary to operate your account, verify your identity, process transactions, and keep the platform safe for all Filipino players. We only collect information that genuinely serves one of these purposes — we do not collect data for the sake of it. Below is a clear breakdown of the categories of information we may hold about you and the reasons each category is needed.
This includes your full name, date of birth, nationality, and a copy of a valid government-issued ID when verification is required. We collect this information to confirm that you meet the age and eligibility requirements for using the platform in the Philippines. Identity data is also used to prevent fraud, duplicate account creation, and unauthorised access. Without this information, we cannot safely onboard you as a registered player. All identity documents are stored with strict access controls and are never shared without legal obligation.
We collect your email address and mobile number during registration so we can send you account-related communications, security alerts, and responses to your support enquiries. Your contact details are never used for unsolicited marketing without your explicit consent. We may also use your mobile number for two-factor authentication to protect your account from unauthorised logins. You can update your contact information at any time through your account settings. Contact data is retained only for as long as your account remains active or as required by applicable Philippine law.
To process deposits and withdrawals through our local Philippine payment channels, we need to collect certain financial details such as your registered GCash number, bank account reference, or other relevant payment identifiers. We do not store full card numbers or sensitive authentication credentials — payment data is handled through our secure payment partners and is never held in plain text on our servers. Transaction records are maintained for regulatory and audit purposes as required under Philippine financial regulations. If you have questions about a specific transaction, our support team can help you trace it. Visit the Payment page or Finance page for more detail on how payments work.
When you access panalowin through our mobile platform or web browser, we automatically collect certain technical information including your device type, operating system, browser version, IP address, and session activity logs. This data helps us optimise the platform's performance, detect unusual login patterns that may indicate account compromise, and improve the overall experience for Filipino players. Usage data is anonymised where possible and is never used to single out individual players for commercial profiling. We do not track your activity on third-party websites or apps outside of our own platform. Logs are retained for a limited period and then securely deleted.
Every piece of data we hold about you is used for a specific, legitimate purpose. We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties for commercial gain — full stop. The sections below explain the main ways your data is put to work on your behalf, and the technical and organisational safeguards we have in place to keep it secure throughout its lifecycle on our systems.
Your personal data is essential for creating and maintaining your player account, processing your deposits and withdrawals in Philippine pesos, and ensuring that the games and features you access behave correctly for your account profile. Without your information, we simply cannot run a safe, personalised platform experience. We also use your data to send you important account notifications such as login alerts, withdrawal confirmations, and responses to support tickets you raise. These operational communications are not optional marketing messages — they are core to keeping your account transparent and secure. If you ever need to update any of the information we hold, you can do so directly through your account or by contacting [email protected].
We use identity, financial, and device data together to monitor for signs of fraudulent activity, money laundering, underage access, and other prohibited conduct under our Terms and Conditions. This monitoring is a legal requirement under Philippine regulations applicable to online gaming platforms, and it is also simply the right thing to do to protect our entire player community. When we detect a potential security issue, we may temporarily restrict account access while we investigate — this is done to protect you, not to penalise you. We cooperate with relevant Philippine government authorities when lawfully required to share information as part of an official investigation. Our security team reviews access logs and transaction patterns on an ongoing basis to stay ahead of emerging threats.
We apply industry-standard encryption to data both in transit (using TLS) and at rest on our servers, so that your personal information is never exposed in readable form even if a storage system were ever compromised. Access to personal data within our organisation is limited strictly to staff who need it for their specific job function, and all such access is logged and auditable. Passwords are never stored in plain text — they are hashed using modern cryptographic algorithms before storage. We regularly review and update our security practices as technology and threat landscapes evolve, and our platform undergoes periodic security assessments. If a data breach were ever to occur that poses a significant risk to your rights, we would notify you and the relevant Philippine authorities as required by law.
In order to deliver the full panalowin experience to players across the Philippines, we work with a limited set of trusted service providers — such as local payment processors, cloud hosting providers, and customer support technology partners. These third parties are only given access to the data they strictly need to perform their service, and they are contractually required to handle it in accordance with applicable Philippine data protection law. We do not allow our service providers to use your data for their own marketing or commercial purposes. We do not sell your data to data brokers, advertisers, or any other commercial third party. Any change to our third-party arrangements that materially affects how your data is used will be reflected in an update to this Privacy Policy.
Under applicable Philippine data protection law, including the Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act No. 10173), you have a set of clear rights regarding your personal information. We are committed to honouring these rights promptly and transparently. Below is a summary of what you are entitled to and how to exercise each right.
You have the right to request a copy of the personal information we hold about you at any time. We will provide this within a reasonable timeframe and in a clear, readable format. To make an access request, contact us at [email protected] with your registered account details so we can verify your identity before releasing any data.
If any personal information we hold about you is inaccurate, incomplete, or out of date, you have the right to request a correction. You can update basic account details directly through your account settings, or contact our support team for assistance with information that requires manual review or verification before it can be amended.
You may request that we delete your personal information in certain circumstances — for example, if your account is closed and there is no longer a legal or regulatory reason for us to retain it. Note that some data must be retained for a minimum period under Philippine financial and gaming regulations even after account closure, and we will inform you of any such retention obligation when processing your request.
You have the right to object to the processing of your personal data for purposes beyond what is strictly necessary to operate your account and comply with our legal obligations. If you believe we are using your data in a way that goes beyond what you consented to or what is required by law, please raise your concern with us and we will review it seriously and respond in writing.
To exercise any of the rights described above, or if you have any concern about how your personal information is being handled, please reach out to us directly at [email protected]. Please include your registered account email address and a brief description of your request so we can locate your records and respond as efficiently as possible. We aim to acknowledge all privacy-related requests within three business days and to resolve them fully within the timeframe required under Philippine law. If you feel your concern has not been addressed to your satisfaction, you also have the right to lodge a complaint with the National Privacy Commission of the Philippines. We take all privacy feedback seriously and use it to continuously improve our data handling practices.
