1. Scope and acceptance of this policy
This policy applies whenever you interact with the Pinoy Time website, account dashboard, cashier, games, betting markets, support channels, promotions, or related services. It covers visitors as well as registered members. When you use Pinoy Time, you acknowledge that your information will be handled as described here and in accordance with applicable Philippine privacy requirements.
The policy should be read together with the Terms and Conditions that govern account access, gaming, payments, and acceptable behaviour. If you do not agree with this policy, please do not submit personal information or create a Pinoy Time account. Existing members who have concerns may contact our privacy team using the details at the end of this page.
Plain-language promise: Pinoy Time aims to collect only what is reasonably needed, explain why it is needed, protect it while it is held, and remove or anonymise it when retention is no longer required.
2. Personal information we collect
The information collected by Pinoy Time depends on how you use the platform. A visitor reading a game guide provides less information than a registered member who deposits, places wagers, and requests a withdrawal. The main categories are listed below.
| Information category |
Examples |
Main purpose |
| Account details |
Name, date of birth, email address, mobile number, username, and account preferences |
Registration, communication, age screening, and account administration |
| Identity information |
Government-issued identification, verification photograph, address, and document details |
Know Your Customer checks, fraud prevention, and regulatory compliance |
| Payment information |
Payment method, transaction reference, account holder name, amount, and status |
Processing deposits and withdrawals and investigating disputed transactions |
| Gaming activity |
Game choices, stakes, results, bonuses, session length, and transaction history |
Operating services, resolving queries, monitoring risk, and supporting responsible gaming |
| Technical data |
IP address, browser, device type, operating system, login time, and security events |
Site performance, account protection, analytics, and abuse detection |
| Support records |
Messages, complaint details, verification responses, and case history |
Answering questions and keeping a reliable record of account decisions |
Please provide accurate and current information. Incorrect account or payment details can delay verification and withdrawals. Pinoy Time may ask you to update information when records appear incomplete, inconsistent, or outdated.
3. How we collect information
Most information is collected directly from you. This happens when you register, update your profile, upload verification documents, deposit through GCash or another supported method, place a wager, request a withdrawal, set responsible gaming limits, or speak with Pinoy Time support.
Some technical and usage information is recorded automatically when you access Pinoy Time. These records may include login attempts, device characteristics, navigation activity, session duration, and system events. Automatic collection helps the platform work correctly, remember appropriate settings, recognise suspicious access, and investigate technical issues.
Pinoy Time may also receive limited verification or transaction information from authorised payment processors, identity-check providers, banks, card networks, fraud-prevention services, and game suppliers. We request only information relevant to the service being performed and require providers to handle it appropriately.
4. How Pinoy Time uses personal information
Pinoy Time uses personal information to create and maintain accounts, verify player eligibility, process peso transactions, deliver games and betting markets, calculate balances, settle results, and provide customer support. These activities are necessary to operate the service you request.
We also use information to keep the platform safe. This includes checking unusual logins, investigating payment mismatches, detecting multiple accounts, preventing collusion, identifying bonus misuse, and responding to suspected fraud. Security reviews may combine account, device, transaction, and gaming records so that Pinoy Time can make a fair and informed decision.
Player data may be reviewed for responsible gaming purposes. For example, sudden changes in deposit frequency, session length, or betting behaviour may support safer-gaming messages or account interventions. Pinoy Time does not promise that automated monitoring can identify every risk, so players should still use deposit limits, breaks, and self-exclusion whenever needed.
With the appropriate permission or other valid basis, Pinoy Time may send service news, bonus information, game updates, and account notices. Essential messages about security, payments, policy changes, or responsible gaming may still be sent because they relate directly to account operation.
5. Legal grounds for processing
Depending on the situation, Pinoy Time processes personal information because it is needed to perform the agreement with you, comply with a legal obligation, protect legitimate operational interests, prevent fraud, establish or defend legal claims, or act with your consent.
Consent is not used where another ground is more appropriate. For example, Pinoy Time does not rely on marketing consent to keep transaction records required for compliance. If processing is based on consent, you may withdraw that consent for future use. Withdrawal does not make earlier lawful processing invalid and may not affect information that must still be retained.
Our approach is informed by the Data Privacy Act of 2012 and related Philippine privacy principles, including transparency, legitimate purpose, and proportionality. Pinoy Time reviews data practices as services, technology, and applicable requirements develop.
6. Payments, identity checks, and account verification
Payment details are used to complete deposits and withdrawals through supported Philippine methods, including GCash, Maya, GrabPay, Coins.ph, InstaPay or PESONet bank transfer, BDO, BPI, UnionBank, and eligible Visa or Mastercard cards. Pinoy Time generally records transaction references and status information rather than storing full payment credentials when a payment provider handles them directly.
Identity checks help confirm that an account belongs to an adult player and that the payment method is in the same name. Pinoy Time may request an accepted government ID, a current photograph, proof of address, or additional transaction information. Requests are based on account risk, withdrawal activity, or legal and operational requirements.
Verification documents are sensitive and receive restricted handling. They are used for identity confirmation, anti-fraud checks, payment security, and compliance. Pinoy Time does not use verification documents for unrelated advertising.
Never send your password, OTP, wallet PIN, or complete card security code. Genuine Pinoy Time support does not need those details to verify your identity or process a normal account request.
7. When information may be shared
Pinoy Time does not sell player information. Limited information may be shared with service providers that help operate the website, host data, deliver games, process payments, verify identity, detect fraud, provide communications, or support customer cases. Providers are expected to use the data only for authorised purposes and to apply suitable safeguards.
Information may also be disclosed when required by applicable law, a valid regulatory request, a court order, or a lawful investigation. Pinoy Time may share relevant records to protect players, enforce platform terms, prevent financial crime, or respond to a credible security incident.
If the business undergoes a merger, restructuring, financing, or transfer of assets, information may be reviewed or transferred as part of that transaction. Any successor handling Pinoy Time data would remain responsible for protecting it under applicable requirements and the commitments communicated to players.
8. Cookies, analytics, and device information
Cookies and similar browser technologies help Pinoy Time maintain sessions, recognise logged-in members, remember preferences, support security controls, and understand whether pages work correctly. Some cookies are necessary for core account functions and cannot be disabled without affecting platform access.
Performance information may be used in combined or de-identified form to understand popular sections, detect errors, and improve mobile usability. Pinoy Time aims to avoid collecting more device information than needed for these functions.
You can use browser controls to remove or block cookies. However, blocking essential cookies may prevent login, cashier functions, game loading, or saved preferences from working properly. Closing a browser session does not automatically delete records that Pinoy Time must retain for security or transaction history.
9. How information is protected
Pinoy Time uses layered administrative and technical measures designed to reduce unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, or loss. Measures may include access restrictions, account authentication, activity logging, data separation, secure transmission controls, staff confidentiality duties, provider checks, and incident-response procedures.
No online system can promise absolute security. Players also have an important role. Use a unique password, keep your registered mobile number secure, avoid signing in on shared devices, and log out after a session. Tell Pinoy Time promptly if you notice an unfamiliar login, transaction, or change to your profile.
If a data incident is identified, Pinoy Time will investigate, contain the issue, assess the likely impact, and provide notices when required. The information in a notice will depend on what happened and what practical action affected players should take.
10. How long data is retained
Pinoy Time keeps personal information only for as long as it is reasonably needed for the purpose collected or for an applicable legal, security, accounting, dispute, and anti-fraud requirement. Different categories may have different retention periods.
Closing an account does not always mean immediate deletion of every record. Transaction histories, verification records, responsible gaming exclusions, support decisions, and fraud-prevention information may need to remain available after closure. This helps Pinoy Time meet legal duties, handle disputes, and prevent an excluded or banned account from being reopened improperly.
When retention is no longer justified, information is deleted, securely disposed of, or anonymised so it can no longer identify a player. Pinoy Time reviews stored information and retention needs as operational and legal requirements change.
11. Your privacy rights and choices
Subject to applicable law and valid exceptions, you may ask Pinoy Time whether personal information is being processed, request access to eligible records, correct inaccurate details, object to certain uses, withdraw consent, or request deletion or restriction. You may also raise a concern about how your information has been handled.
To protect your account, Pinoy Time may need to verify your identity before completing a privacy request. Please provide enough information to locate the account and understand what you are asking for. We will not ask for your password, OTP, or wallet PIN.
Some requests may be limited where information must be retained for financial records, legal obligations, fraud prevention, responsible gaming exclusion, or an ongoing dispute. If Pinoy Time cannot complete a request fully, we will explain the main reason where permitted.
Communication preferences
You may change eligible promotional communication preferences through your account or by contacting support. Security alerts, transaction confirmations, service notices, and important policy updates are operational messages and may still be delivered while your Pinoy Time account remains open.
12. Responsible gaming and sensitive account decisions
Responsible gaming is part of account protection. Pinoy Time may use deposit history, time spent playing, limit changes, communication records, and betting patterns to support safer-gaming controls. This may lead to a reminder, a request for information, a temporary restriction, or a discussion about available limits.
Self-exclusion records may be retained after account closure so that the exclusion remains effective. Pinoy Time treats these records as restricted information and uses them for player protection, compliance, and enforcement of the chosen exclusion period.
Automated tools can help flag unusual patterns, but significant account decisions may also receive human review. You may contact Pinoy Time support if you believe an account restriction was based on incomplete or inaccurate information. You can also review the full Responsible Gaming page for available controls.
13. Age restriction and information about minors
Pinoy Time is intended only for people aged 21 and above. We do not knowingly offer accounts or gaming services to minors. Registration information and identity checks may be used to confirm age before full account services or withdrawals are available.
If Pinoy Time learns that an account belongs to a person below the permitted age, access will be restricted and the information will be reviewed. Necessary records may be retained to document the action, meet legal duties, and prevent another unauthorised registration.
Parents and guardians should protect payment accounts, mobile wallets, devices, and passwords from unauthorised use. Concerns about possible access by a minor should be reported to Pinoy Time promptly.
14. Updates to this Privacy Policy
Pinoy Time may update this policy when services, payment options, legal requirements, or privacy practices change. The latest version will appear on this page with an updated revision date. Material changes may also be communicated through an account message or another reasonable channel.
We encourage members to review this page from time to time. Continued use of Pinoy Time after an update means the revised policy applies to later activity, subject to any additional consent required by law.
15. Privacy questions and contact details
For a privacy request, correction, account-data question, or concern about how information was handled, contact the Pinoy Time privacy team at privacy@pinoytime.asia. For general account support, use support@pinoytime.asia.
Include your registered email address, a clear description of the request, and any relevant transaction or case reference. Do not include your password, OTP, wallet PIN, or full card details. Pinoy Time may request appropriate identity verification before discussing protected account information.
If your concern is about account rules rather than privacy, read the Terms and Conditions. Common account and payment questions are also covered on the FAQ page.
