At Playtok, we take your privacy seriously. We know that handing over personal information to an online casino requires a real level of trust — and we want to make sure that trust is well-placed. This Privacy Policy explains in plain, straightforward language exactly what personal data we collect when you use the Playtok platform, why we need it, what we do with it, who we might share it with, and how you can exercise your rights as a data subject under Philippine law.

This policy applies to all personal data processed by Playtok in connection with your use of the playtok.click website, any related mobile interface, our customer support channels, and all payment and verification processes connected to your account.

Short version: Playtok collects only what it needs to run your account, process your payments, keep things secure, and comply with Philippine law. We never sell your data. You have the right to see, correct, and delete your data at any time by contacting our Data Privacy Officer.

1Overview of This Policy

This Privacy Policy forms part of the overall terms governing your use of Playtok. It should be read together with the Playtok Terms and Conditions and Responsible Gaming Policy. By registering an account or using any part of the Playtok platform, you confirm that you have read and understood this policy and consent to the collection and processing of your personal data as described herein.

Playtok is committed to processing personal data lawfully, fairly, and transparently — in full compliance with the Republic Act 10173, otherwise known as the Data Privacy Act of 2012 (DPA), its Implementing Rules and Regulations, and the issuances of the National Privacy Commission (NPC) of the Philippines.

If you have any concerns or questions about this policy at any time, our dedicated Data Privacy Officer is available to assist you. Contact details are set out in Section 14 of this document.

2Who We Are

Playtok is an online gaming platform operating at playtok.click, designed and maintained for Filipino players. For the purposes of the Data Privacy Act of 2012, Playtok acts as the Personal Information Controller in respect of the personal data it collects directly from you during registration, account use, and payment processing.

Where Playtok engages third-party service providers — such as payment processors, game content providers, identity verification services, and infrastructure partners — those parties act as Personal Information Processors under binding data processing agreements that require them to handle your data only in accordance with Playtok's instructions and this policy.

The Playtok Data Privacy Officer can be reached at support@playtok.click with the subject line "Data Privacy Inquiry".

3Personal Data We Collect

Playtok collects personal data only to the extent necessary to provide the platform's services, comply with legal obligations, and protect the safety and security of all players. The categories of personal data we collect include:

Category Examples Collected When
Identity Data Full legal name, date of birth, nationality, government-issued ID details Registration & KYC verification
Contact Data Mobile number, email address, home address Registration
Financial Data GCash number, Maya account, bank account details (name, account number), transaction history Deposit & withdrawal processing
Account Data Username, encrypted password, account balance, betting and gaming history Account creation & ongoing use
Technical Data IP address, device type, operating system, browser type, session duration, pages visited Every platform visit
Communications Data Support chat transcripts, emails, feedback submitted When you contact support
Verification Media Selfie photos, scanned government ID images KYC verification process

Playtok does not collect sensitive personal information such as racial or ethnic origin, religious beliefs, health records, or political opinions, except where legally required for compliance with anti-money laundering or responsible gaming obligations.

4How We Collect Your Data

Playtok collects personal data through the following channels:

  • Directly from you — when you register an account, complete identity verification, make a deposit or withdrawal, contact support, or update your account details.
  • Automatically — through cookies, web analytics tools, and server logs when you browse or interact with any part of the Playtok platform. This includes your IP address, device identifiers, session data, and page interactions.
  • From third parties — from payment processors (GCash, Maya, banks) who confirm the status and ownership of transactions; from identity verification service providers who validate government ID authenticity; and from fraud prevention and AML screening services where required by law.

When data is collected from third-party sources, Playtok ensures that those third parties have the lawful authority to share the data with us and that the sharing is limited to what is necessary for the purposes described in this policy.

5Why We Use Your Data

Playtok uses your personal data only for specific, legitimate purposes. We do not process your data in ways that are incompatible with the reason it was originally collected. The main purposes for which we use your data are:

  • Account management: Creating and maintaining your Playtok account, verifying your identity and age, processing logins, and keeping your account settings up to date.
  • Payment processing: Processing deposits and withdrawals via GCash, Maya, bank transfer, and card — including verifying that payment accounts are held in your name as required under anti-money laundering rules.
  • Legal and regulatory compliance: Meeting our obligations under Philippine gaming regulations, the Anti-Money Laundering Act (AMLA), the Data Privacy Act of 2012, and applicable PAGCOR licensing requirements.
  • Fraud and security prevention: Detecting and investigating suspicious activity, preventing unauthorised account access, and identifying potential money laundering or collusion.
  • Platform improvement: Analysing aggregated, anonymised usage data to understand how players interact with Playtok and to improve the platform's design, performance, and game selection.
  • Customer support: Responding to your queries, resolving payment disputes, and addressing account issues efficiently.
  • Responsible gaming: Monitoring account activity to identify signs of problem gambling behaviour and facilitating the use of responsible gaming tools you request.
  • Marketing communications: Sending you promotional offers, bonuses, and news about Playtok — but only where you have given your explicit consent. You can withdraw marketing consent at any time from your account settings or by emailing our support team.

6Legal Basis for Processing

Under the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012, Playtok relies on the following legal bases for processing personal data:

  • Consent: Where you have given clear and specific consent — for example, when you agree to receive marketing communications, or when you consent to this Privacy Policy during registration.
  • Contract: Where processing is necessary to perform our agreement with you — including account creation, game provision, and payment processing.
  • Legal obligation: Where processing is required to comply with Philippine law — including AMLA compliance, age verification obligations, and data retention requirements under gaming regulations.
  • Legitimate interests: Where Playtok has a legitimate business interest in processing your data — such as fraud prevention, platform security, and abuse detection — provided those interests are not overridden by your rights and freedoms.

Where Playtok relies on consent as the legal basis for processing, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal of consent will not affect the lawfulness of any processing that took place prior to the withdrawal.

7Sharing Your Personal Data

Playtok does not sell your personal data to any third party — ever. We share your data only in the following limited and necessary circumstances:

  • Payment processors: GCash, Maya (Voyager Innovations), GrabPay, Coins.ph, InstaPay-connected banks (BDO, BPI, UnionBank), and Visa/Mastercard acquiring banks receive only the data required to process your specific transaction.
  • Identity verification providers: Third-party KYC services that validate government-issued ID documents and perform age and identity checks. These providers operate under strict data processing agreements with Playtok.
  • Game content providers: JILI and other game suppliers may receive anonymised session identifiers necessary to deliver game functionality. They do not receive your name, contact information, or financial data.
  • Regulatory and law enforcement authorities: Where required by Philippine law — including PAGCOR, the Anti-Money Laundering Council (AMLC), the National Privacy Commission, or a court of competent jurisdiction — Playtok will disclose data as legally required.
  • Infrastructure and technology providers: Cloud hosting, analytics, and security service providers who assist in operating the Playtok platform. All such providers are bound by data processing agreements that restrict their use of your data to the services they provide to Playtok.

All third parties with whom Playtok shares personal data are contractually required to process that data securely, lawfully, and solely for the specified purposes.

8Data Storage and Security

All personal data collected by Playtok is stored on secure servers protected by industry-standard security measures. The key security protections in place include:

  • 256-bit SSL/TLS encryption for all data in transit between your device and Playtok servers.
  • Encryption at rest for all sensitive data stored in Playtok databases, including identity documents, financial account references, and passwords (which are stored as one-way cryptographic hashes — never in plaintext).
  • Access controls — only authorised Playtok personnel who require access to your data for their specific role are permitted to view it. Access is logged and audited.
  • PCI-DSS Level 1 compliant card payment processing — card data never passes through or is stored on Playtok servers.
  • Regular security assessments including vulnerability scans and penetration testing conducted by independent security professionals.

In the event of a personal data breach that is likely to affect your rights and freedoms, Playtok will notify you and the National Privacy Commission within 72 hours of becoming aware of the breach, as required by the Data Privacy Act of 2012 and NPC Circular 16-03.

10Data Retention

Playtok retains your personal data only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this policy, or as required by applicable Philippine law. Retention periods by data category are as follows:

  • Account and identity data: Retained for the lifetime of your account and for a minimum of 5 years after account closure, as required by PAGCOR licensing obligations and AMLA record-keeping requirements.
  • Transaction and financial data: Retained for a minimum of 5 years from the date of each transaction, in line with Philippine AMLA requirements.
  • KYC verification documents: Retained for 5 years from the date of verification, or longer if required by a specific regulatory directive.
  • Support communications: Retained for 2 years from the date of the last communication, or longer if related to an unresolved dispute or legal matter.
  • Technical and session data (cookies, logs): Aggregated analytics data is retained for up to 24 months. Raw server logs are retained for 90 days.
  • Marketing preferences: Retained until you withdraw consent, at which point marketing communications will cease within 48 hours.

When the retention period for your data expires, Playtok will securely delete or anonymise the data so that it can no longer be linked to you as an individual.

11Your Data Rights

Under the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012, you have the following rights with respect to your personal data held by Playtok. These rights can be exercised at any time by contacting our Data Privacy Officer:

Right to Access

You have the right to request a copy of all personal data that Playtok holds about you. We will provide this within 15 business days of receiving your verified request, at no charge for the first request each calendar year.

Right to Correction

If any personal data held by Playtok is inaccurate, incomplete, or outdated, you have the right to request that it be corrected. Most account data can be updated directly from your account settings; other corrections can be requested via support.

Right to Erasure

You can request deletion of your personal data where it is no longer necessary for the purposes it was collected, or where you withdraw consent. Note that legal retention obligations (AMLA, PAGCOR) may require us to retain certain data even after account closure.

Right to Object

You have the right to object to the processing of your personal data where Playtok relies on legitimate interests as the legal basis, including profiling for responsible gaming monitoring. We will cease processing unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds that override your rights.

Right to Data Portability

Where technically feasible, you may request that Playtok provide your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format — for example, to transfer your account history to another service. Submit a portability request to our DPO.

Right to Complain

If you believe Playtok has not handled your personal data in accordance with the Data Privacy Act, you have the right to file a complaint with the National Privacy Commission (NPC) of the Philippines. We always encourage you to contact us first so we can resolve your concern directly.

To exercise any of your data rights, contact the Playtok Data Privacy Officer at support@playtok.click with the subject "Data Rights Request". Please include your registered email address and a clear description of your request. We may ask you to verify your identity before processing the request to protect your account from unauthorised data disclosure.

12Minors and Under-Age Players

Playtok is strictly an adult platform. We do not knowingly collect personal data from individuals below the age of 21 years. Age verification is conducted during registration and again before first withdrawal, using government-issued identification documents.

If Playtok discovers or has reason to believe that personal data has been collected from a person under 21 years of age, the account will be suspended immediately, all collected data will be deleted without unnecessary delay, and any deposits will be returned to the originating payment method to the extent practicable.

If you are a parent or guardian and believe that your child has created a Playtok account, please contact us immediately at support@playtok.click with the subject "Minor Account Report". We take these reports very seriously and will act promptly.

13Changes to This Privacy Policy

Playtok may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in Philippine law, NPC guidance, our business operations, or the way the platform functions. When we make material changes, we will notify registered players via email and/or an in-platform notification at least 7 days before the changes take effect.

The effective date of the current version is always displayed at the top of this page and in the "Last Updated" indicator in the table of contents. We encourage you to review this policy periodically so you are always aware of how your data is being handled at Playtok.

Continued use of the Playtok platform after a policy update takes effect constitutes your acceptance of the revised policy. If you do not accept the updated policy, you should stop using the platform and contact us to close your account.

How Playtok Protects Your Privacy Every Day

Practical measures that go beyond policy — built into the platform itself.

End-to-End Encryption

Every connection to Playtok is encrypted with 256-bit SSL/TLS — the same standard used by Philippine banks. Your login credentials, payment details, and personal data are never transmitted in plaintext, whether you're on WiFi, LTE, or 5G.

Two-Factor Authentication

Optional but strongly recommended — 2FA at Playtok adds a second verification step every time you log in. Even if someone else gets hold of your password, they cannot access your account without your second factor.

No Data Sales — Ever

Playtok has never sold player data to any third party and has no plans to do so. Your personal information is used only to run your account, process your payments, and keep the platform secure and compliant with Philippine law.

Philippine Data Privacy Act Compliant

Playtok operates in full compliance with Republic Act 10173 and NPC implementing rules. Our Data Privacy Officer oversees all personal data processing activities and ensures our practices remain current with NPC guidance and circulars.

Card Data Never Stored

Card payments at Playtok are processed through a PCI-DSS Level 1 certified gateway. Your card number and CVV never touch our servers — they go directly to the payment processor and are never stored by Playtok in any form.

Breach Notification Ready

In the event of any data breach affecting your personal data, Playtok is legally obligated — and operationally ready — to notify you and the National Privacy Commission within 72 hours, as required by Philippine law and NPC Circular 16-03.
