niceph26 Privacy Policy

niceph26 acts as the Data Controller for all personal data collected and processed through the niceph26 platform. niceph26 operates under a PAGCOR license and is subject to the Data Privacy Act of 2012, the Anti-Money Laundering Act (Republic Act No. 9160, as amended), and all applicable PAGCOR data governance directives.

niceph26 has appointed a Data Protection Officer (DPO) responsible for overseeing compliance with the DPA and this Privacy Policy. Contact details for the DPO are provided in Section 13 of this Policy.

Where niceph26 engages third-party service providers to process personal data on its behalf — such as payment processors, identity verification providers, or cloud infrastructure providers — those parties act as Data Processors under written agreements that require them to process personal data only on niceph26's documented instructions and in compliance with the DPA.

niceph26 collects the following categories of personal data from registered players and platform users:

niceph26 does not collect sensitive personal information — such as racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious beliefs, health data, or biometric data — unless specifically required by PAGCOR regulations or Philippine law, and only with your explicit consent where required.

niceph26 collects personal data through the following means:

• Direct collection: Information you provide when registering an account, completing KYC verification, making a deposit or withdrawal, contacting support, or participating in promotions.
• Automated collection: Technical and gaming data collected automatically when you access and use the niceph26 platform, including through cookies, server logs, and session tracking technologies.
• Third-party sources: Identity and fraud-check data received from licensed KYC verification providers, payment processors, and credit reference agencies where permitted by Philippine law.
• PAGCOR and regulatory sources: Information shared by PAGCOR or other Philippine government agencies in connection with regulatory compliance, licensing obligations, or anti-money laundering investigations.

niceph26 processes your personal data only for specific, legitimate purposes and on a recognized legal basis under the DPA. The table below sets out the primary purposes for which niceph26 processes personal data:

niceph26 will not process your personal data for any purpose that is incompatible with the purposes listed above without first obtaining your consent or establishing a new legal basis for processing.

6.1 Third-Party Service Providers. niceph26 shares personal data with carefully selected third-party service providers who assist in delivering the niceph26 platform and its services. These include KYC and identity verification providers, payment processors (including GCash, PayMaya, and partner banks), cloud hosting and infrastructure providers, customer support platform providers, and fraud detection and cybersecurity partners. All such providers are bound by data processing agreements that restrict their use of personal data to the specific services they provide to niceph26.

6.2 Regulatory and Government Authorities. niceph26 is required by Philippine law to disclose personal data to PAGCOR, the Anti-Money Laundering Council (AMLC), the National Privacy Commission (NPC), and other competent government authorities when required by law, court order, or regulatory directive. niceph26 will comply with all such lawful disclosure requirements without prior notice to the affected data subject where the law so permits or requires.

6.3 Business Transfers. In the event of a merger, acquisition, restructuring, or sale of all or part of niceph26's business, personal data held by niceph26 may be transferred to the acquiring entity as part of that transaction. niceph26 will notify affected users of any such transfer and ensure that the receiving entity is bound by privacy obligations no less protective than those in this Policy.

6.4 No Sale of Personal Data. niceph26 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to any third party for their own marketing or commercial purposes. Personal data is shared only as described in this Section and only to the extent necessary for the stated purpose.

7.1 Retention Periods. niceph26 retains personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by applicable Philippine law and PAGCOR regulations. The following general retention periods apply:

7.2 Secure Disposal. Upon expiry of the applicable retention period, niceph26 will securely delete or anonymize personal data in a manner that prevents reconstruction or identification of the data subject. Anonymized data may be retained indefinitely for statistical and analytical purposes.

8.1 Technical Safeguards. niceph26 implements industry-standard technical security measures to protect personal data against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. These measures include 256-bit SSL/TLS encryption for all data transmitted between your device and the niceph26 platform, encryption of sensitive data at rest, multi-factor authentication for account access, and regular penetration testing and vulnerability assessments of the platform infrastructure.

8.2 Organizational Safeguards. Access to personal data within niceph26 is restricted on a strict need-to-know basis. All niceph26 staff and contractors with access to personal data are subject to confidentiality obligations and receive regular data privacy training. niceph26 maintains a formal information security policy aligned with PAGCOR's technical security standards.

8.3 Data Breach Response. In the event of a personal data breach that is likely to result in a risk to the rights and freedoms of affected data subjects, niceph26 will notify the National Privacy Commission within seventy-two (72) hours of becoming aware of the breach, in accordance with NPC Circular No. 16-03. Affected data subjects will be notified without undue delay where the breach is likely to result in a high risk to their rights.

8.4 Your Role in Security. While niceph26 takes all reasonable steps to protect your personal data, the security of your account also depends on you. You are responsible for keeping your niceph26 login credentials confidential and for notifying niceph26 immediately if you suspect unauthorized access to your account.
