PHDream 7 Privacy Policy – How We Protect Your Personal Data

1 Introduction

At PHDream 7, we understand that your personal information matters to you — and it matters to us too. This Privacy Policy is written in plain, accessible language because we believe every Filipino player deserves to understand exactly how their data is handled without having to wade through pages of dense legal text.

This Policy covers all personal data that PHDream 7 collects, processes, stores, and shares in connection with the operation of the PHDream 7 online gaming platform at phdream7.app. It applies to all registered players, visitors to the site, and anyone who contacts PHDream 7 support.

PHDream 7 processes personal data as a Personal Information Controller as defined under Republic Act No. 10173, the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012 (DPA). This means PHDream 7 determines the purposes and means of processing personal data collected through the platform. Where PHDream 7 engages third-party service providers to process data on our behalf, those parties act as Personal Information Processors and are bound by data processing agreements consistent with Philippine law.

2 Who We Are

PHDream 7 is an online gaming platform operated for the Philippine market and accessible at phdream7.app. For the purposes of this Privacy Policy, references to "PHDream 7", "we", "us", and "our" refer to the operator of the PHDream 7 platform.

PHDream 7 has appointed a Data Protection Officer (DPO) responsible for overseeing compliance with the Philippine Data Privacy Act and this Privacy Policy. The DPO can be contacted at:

• Email: privacy@phdream7.app
• General Support: support@phdream7.app

PHDream 7 is registered with the National Privacy Commission of the Philippines as required under the DPA. Players who have concerns about how their data is handled may contact the NPC at complaints@privacy.gov.ph — though we encourage you to contact PHDream 7 directly first so we can resolve matters promptly.

3 Personal Data We Collect

PHDream 7 collects personal data through several channels — directly from you during registration and account use, automatically through your device and browser when you visit the site, and from third parties such as payment processors and identity verification services where applicable.

When you register a PHDream 7 account or interact with the platform, you provide us with information that may include:

• Full legal name as it appears on your government-issued ID;
• Date of birth;
• Philippine mobile number and/or email address;
• Home address (required for certain verification levels);
• Government-issued identification document details (e.g., PhilSys ID number, passport number, driver's licence number);
• Payment account details sufficient to process deposits and withdrawals (e.g., GCash-registered mobile number, bank account details);
• Username and encrypted password;
• Any information you provide when contacting PHDream 7 support.

• Login timestamps and session duration;
• Transaction history (deposits, withdrawals, bets placed, game results);

3.3 Data from Third Parties

PHDream 7 may receive personal data from trusted third parties including:

• Identity verification services confirming document authenticity and age;
• Fraud detection partners flagging suspicious activity patterns;
• Regulatory bodies where information sharing is required by law.

4 How We Use Your Personal Data

PHDream 7 uses your personal data only for purposes that are legitimate, specific, and compatible with why it was originally collected. We never use your data in ways you wouldn't reasonably expect. The main uses are:

• Account creation and management: Creating and maintaining your PHDream 7 account, verifying your identity, and enabling you to log in and use the platform;
• Processing transactions: Handling your deposits, withdrawals, and bet settlements accurately and promptly;
• Delivering gaming services: Operating all games, tracking game histories, calculating winnings, and applying bonuses;
• Legal and regulatory compliance: Satisfying obligations under Philippine gaming regulations, anti-money laundering laws, and the Data Privacy Act — including Know Your Customer (KYC) requirements;
• Fraud prevention and security: Detecting and preventing unauthorised access, account fraud, bonus abuse, money laundering, and other prohibited activities;
• Responsible gaming: Monitoring gameplay patterns to identify potential problem gaming behaviour and applying any self-imposed limits or restrictions you have set;
• Customer support: Responding to your queries, resolving complaints, and maintaining records of our communications with you;
• Platform improvement: Analysing aggregated usage data to understand how the platform is used and improve features, performance, and game selection;
• Communications: Sending you service notifications, security alerts, and — where you have consented — promotional messages about offers and new features at PHDream 7.

5 Legal Bases for Processing

Under the Philippine Data Privacy Act, PHDream 7 must have a lawful basis for processing your personal data. Depending on the type of processing involved, we rely on the following legal grounds:

• Contractual necessity: Processing required to fulfil our obligations under the Terms and Conditions you accepted — including operating your account, processing payments, and delivering gaming services;
• Legal obligation: Processing required to comply with applicable Philippine laws, including gaming regulations, anti-money laundering requirements, and data privacy law;
• Legitimate interests: Processing necessary for the legitimate interests of PHDream 7, including fraud prevention, platform security, and improving our services — where those interests are not overridden by your privacy rights;
• Consent: Processing based on your explicit consent — primarily for marketing communications. Consent can be withdrawn at any time without affecting prior processing.

6 Sharing Your Personal Data

PHDream 7 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data. We share your data only in the following limited circumstances:

6.1 Service Providers

PHDream 7 engages trusted third-party service providers who process personal data on our behalf to support the operation of the platform. These include:

• Payment processors (GCash, Maya, InstaPay, banking partners) for deposit and withdrawal processing;
• Identity verification and KYC providers for age and document verification;
• Fraud detection and cybersecurity firms;
• Game content providers (JILI, Pragmatic Play, Evolution Gaming, and others) for game delivery;
• Cloud hosting and data storage providers;
• Customer support platform providers.

All service providers engaged by PHDream 7 are bound by data processing agreements requiring them to handle your data in accordance with the DPA and this Privacy Policy. They may not use your data for their own marketing purposes.

6.2 Legal and Regulatory Disclosures

PHDream 7 may disclose your personal data to government authorities, law enforcement agencies, or regulatory bodies where required or permitted by Philippine law — including the National Privacy Commission, the Philippine Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR), the Anti-Money Laundering Council (AMLC), and law enforcement agencies investigating criminal activity.

6.3 Business Transfers

In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or substantially all of PHDream 7's assets, your personal data may be transferred to the successor entity. PHDream 7 will notify affected players of any such transfer and ensure the receiving party maintains data protection standards consistent with this Policy.

7 Data Retention

PHDream 7 retains personal data for as long as it is necessary for the purposes described in this Policy and as required by applicable Philippine law. The key retention periods that apply to PHDream 7 player data are:

• Active account data: Retained for the duration of your PHDream 7 account and for a period of five years after permanent account closure, as required by anti-money laundering regulations;
• Transaction records: Maintained for a minimum of five years from the date of each transaction in compliance with financial record-keeping obligations;
• Identity verification documents: Retained for at least five years after the end of the business relationship, or longer if required by regulators;
• Support communications: Retained for two years from the date of the interaction unless a longer period is required for dispute resolution;
• Marketing consent records: Retained until you withdraw consent and for a reasonable period thereafter to demonstrate compliance.

After the relevant retention period expires, PHDream 7 will securely delete, destroy, or anonymise your personal data so it can no longer be traced back to you.

9 Your Data Rights

Under the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012, you have clearly defined rights over your personal data. PHDream 7 is committed to honouring these rights promptly and without unnecessary barriers. Here is what you are entitled to:

10 Data Security

PHDream 7 implements appropriate technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, loss, and destruction. Our security measures include:

• TLS/SSL encryption on all data transmitted between your device and PHDream 7's servers;
• Encryption at rest for sensitive personal and financial data stored in our systems;
• Access controls limiting employee access to personal data to only those who need it for their job responsibilities;
• Regular security audits and penetration testing of the PHDream 7 platform;
• Multi-factor authentication available for player accounts and mandatory for administrative access;
• Continuous monitoring for suspicious access patterns, login anomalies, and potential data breaches;
• Employee training on data privacy obligations under the DPA and PHDream 7's internal policies.

While PHDream 7 takes all reasonable steps to protect your data, no system is completely immune to risk. You also play a role in keeping your account secure — use a strong unique password, enable two-factor authentication where available, and never share your login credentials with anyone.

11 Children's Privacy

PHDream 7 is strictly an adults-only platform. No person under the age of 18 is permitted to register an account or use any PHDream 7 service. PHDream 7 does not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18 years of age.

If PHDream 7 becomes aware that personal data has been collected from a person under 18, that data will be deleted immediately and the associated account permanently closed. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has registered on PHDream 7, please contact us immediately at privacy@phdream7.app.

• Post the updated Privacy Policy on this page with a revised "Last Updated" date;
• Notify registered players via their registered email address for significant changes;
• Display a notice on the PHDream 7 platform for a reasonable period after changes take effect.

We encourage you to review this Policy periodically. Continued use of PHDream 7 after a Policy update constitutes your acceptance of the revised terms. If you do not agree with any changes, you may close your account and request deletion of your personal data before the changes take effect.
