Data Protection & Your Privacy
98jili Privacy Policy — How We Handle Your Data in the Philippines
At 98jili, your privacy is not an afterthought — it is a foundational commitment. This Privacy Policy explains exactly what personal data we collect from players in the Philippines, why we collect it, how we store and protect it, and what rights you hold over that information. By registering an account or using any 98jili service, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this policy in full. We encourage you to review this page periodically, as updates may be published when our practices change or when applicable regulations are revised.
1. Information We Collect
When you register and use 98jili, we collect several categories of personal information to deliver a secure, functional, and compliant gaming experience. Account information includes your full legal name, date of birth, email address, mobile number, and the login credentials you create during registration — this information is essential for verifying your identity and maintaining the integrity of your account. Device and browser data is collected automatically when you visit the platform, including your IP address, browser type, operating system, device model, screen resolution, and session timestamps; this technical data helps us detect suspicious activity, optimise platform performance, and tailor the experience to your device. Because 98jili operates in the Philippines and all transactions are denominated in Philippine Peso (PHP), we also collect payment-related information such as your nominated e-wallet details, bank account identifiers, and transaction histories — we do not store full card numbers on our servers and all payment data is handled through encrypted, PCI-compliant channels. Usage data, including the games you play, the sessions you start, the features you interact with, and the duration of your activity, is logged to help us improve platform quality and monitor for problem gaming patterns. We may also collect communications data — the content of messages you send to our support team — to resolve disputes and maintain service records. All data collection is limited to what is reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, and we do not collect sensitive personal information beyond what is required to verify age and identity under applicable Philippine regulations.
2. Why We Use Your Information
98jili uses the data we collect for clearly defined, lawful purposes that are directly tied to operating a safe and enjoyable online gaming platform for players in the Philippines. The primary purpose is account management — creating, maintaining, and securing your player account, processing your deposits and withdrawals in Philippine Peso, verifying your age and identity, and communicating with you about your account status. We use your data to deliver the services you have requested, including access to live casino, slots, sportsbook, and mobile gaming features, and to personalise your experience based on your activity history. Security and fraud prevention is a central use of your information: your device data, IP records, and transaction patterns are analysed to detect unauthorised access, money laundering, duplicate accounts, and other activities that could harm you or the platform. We may use your contact details to send you important service notifications, such as changes to these policies, security alerts, or account verification requests; where you have opted in, we may also send promotional communications about 98jili offers, which you may withdraw consent for at any time. Aggregate, anonymised usage data is used for platform analytics and product development — this data cannot be linked back to any individual player. We do not use your personal data to make fully automated decisions that have legal or similarly significant effects on you without human oversight.
3. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
98jili uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to operate the platform effectively and to understand how players engage with our services. Essential cookies are strictly necessary for the platform to function — they maintain your login session, remember your preferences, and ensure that security checks run correctly; these cookies cannot be disabled without breaking core platform features. Performance cookies collect anonymised data about how pages are used, which features are accessed most frequently, and where technical errors occur, allowing us to continually improve the 98jili experience for all Filipino players. Functionality cookies remember choices you have made — such as language settings or display preferences — so you do not need to re-enter them on every visit. We do not deploy third-party advertising or tracking cookies that follow your browsing activity across other websites. You can manage or delete cookies through your browser settings at any time; please note that disabling essential cookies may prevent you from logging into your account or using certain features. By continuing to use the 98jili platform after being informed of our cookie practices, you consent to the use of cookies as described in this section.
4. Data Storage and Security
All personal data collected by 98jili is stored on secured servers protected by industry-standard technical and organisational safeguards designed to prevent unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. Data in transit between your device and our servers is encrypted using Transport Layer Security (TLS), and sensitive fields such as passwords are stored in hashed form — meaning even our internal team cannot read them in plain text. We maintain strict internal access controls, ensuring that only authorised personnel with a legitimate operational need can access player data, and all such access is logged and periodically audited. Our payment processing infrastructure is handled through PCI-DSS compliant partners, and we do not store raw payment credentials such as full card numbers or CVV codes on 98jili systems. In the event of a data breach that poses a significant risk to affected players, we will notify the relevant regulatory authorities and impacted individuals in accordance with applicable Philippine data protection law within the required timeframe. We retain your personal data only for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this policy, or as required by law; when data is no longer needed, it is securely deleted or anonymised. Players who wish to understand more about the technical measures protecting their data are welcome to contact our support team for a plain-language summary.
5. Sharing Data with Third Parties
98jili does not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties for their own marketing or commercial purposes — this is a firm commitment and not subject to exception. We do share data with a limited set of trusted third-party service providers who assist us in operating the platform, including payment processors, identity verification partners, fraud prevention vendors, and cloud infrastructure providers; all such parties are bound by data processing agreements that restrict them to using your data solely for the contracted purpose and in a manner consistent with this policy. Where required by Philippine law, court order, or lawful regulatory request, 98jili may disclose personal data to government authorities, law enforcement agencies, or regulatory bodies — we will only do so to the extent required and will notify affected players where legally permitted. In the event that 98jili undergoes a corporate restructuring, merger, or acquisition, player data may be transferred to the successor entity as part of the business assets; any such transfer will be subject to equivalent privacy protections and players will be notified in advance. We do not transfer personal data to countries outside the Philippines unless adequate safeguards are in place to ensure an equivalent level of data protection. If you have any concerns about a specific third party that may have received your data in connection with your 98jili account, please contact our support team and we will investigate promptly.
6. Your Rights Over Your Personal Data
As a player based in the Philippines, you have meaningful rights over the personal data that 98jili holds about you, and we are committed to honouring those rights in a timely and transparent manner. You have the right to access a copy of the personal data we hold about you — simply contact our support team with a verified request and we will provide the relevant information within a reasonable timeframe. You have the right to correction: if any of the information in your account is inaccurate, incomplete, or outdated, you may update it directly through your account settings or by requesting assistance from our support team. Where data is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, you have the right to request deletion; please note that some data must be retained for legal, regulatory, or fraud-prevention purposes even after an account is closed. You may also object to or restrict the processing of your data in certain circumstances — for example, if you believe data is being processed without a valid legal basis. If you have given consent for a specific processing activity, such as receiving promotional communications, you may withdraw that consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before the withdrawal. All data rights requests should be submitted through our support channel using your registered email address so we can verify your identity before actioning the request.
7. Protection of Minors and Policy Updates
98jili is strictly an adult platform and does not knowingly collect or process personal data belonging to individuals under 18 years of age. All registration processes include age declaration steps, and we reserve the right to request government-issued identification at any point to verify that a player meets the minimum age requirement. If we discover that personal data has been collected from a minor — whether through misrepresentation during registration or any other means — we will immediately suspend the associated account, delete the relevant data, and take appropriate follow-up action in accordance with Philippine data protection and child protection laws. Parents and guardians who believe their child may have created an account on 98jili are urged to contact our support team immediately so the matter can be investigated and resolved without delay. Regarding policy updates: this Privacy Policy may be revised from time to time to reflect changes in our data practices, new platform features, or updates to applicable regulations. When material changes are made, we will update the effective date at the top of this page and, where appropriate, notify registered players via their registered contact details. Your continued use of the 98jili platform after a revised policy is published constitutes your acceptance of the updated terms. For any questions about this Privacy Policy, please reach out to our support team — contact details are available through the FAQ page — and we will respond as promptly as possible. You may also review our Terms and Conditions and Responsible Gaming guidelines for the full picture of how 98jili operates in the Philippines.
