phgo Privacy Policy

When you create an account on phgo, we collect basic personal information including your name, email address, date of birth, and country of residence within the Philippines. We require this information to verify that you meet the minimum age requirement and to provide you with a personalised platform experience tailored to Filipino users. When you interact with our content — such as reading betting tips, saving analysis articles, or browsing platform reviews — we may collect usage data including the pages you visit, the time you spend on each section, and the device and browser type you use to access the platform. This technical information helps us improve the performance and layout of phgo for mobile users across all regions in the Philippines. We do not collect payment card details, bank account numbers, or any financial credentials, as phgo does not process monetary transactions directly.

The personal information you provide upon registration is used primarily to create and manage your phgo account, authenticate your identity when you log in, and send you important service-related communications such as account confirmations and policy updates. Usage and behavioural data collected during your browsing sessions is analysed in aggregate form to help us understand which types of content — sports analysis, high roller tips, or platform reviews — are most valuable to our Filipino audience. We may use your email address to send you optional newsletters or platform updates, but only where you have provided explicit consent during registration or through your account preferences. phgo will never use your personal information to make automated decisions that have legal or similarly significant effects on you without your prior knowledge. All data processing activities are conducted strictly for the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, and any new use of your data will be communicated to you before it takes effect.

phgo does not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to any third party under any circumstances. We may share limited data with trusted service providers who assist us in operating the platform — such as web hosting, analytics, and email delivery services — but these providers are contractually bound to use your data solely for the purpose of delivering services to phgo and are prohibited from any independent use. In the event that phgo is required by law, court order, or regulatory authority in the Philippines to disclose personal information, we will comply with such requirements while notifying you to the extent permitted by applicable law. If phgo undergoes a business merger, acquisition, or transfer of assets, your personal data may be transferred as part of that transaction, and we will notify all affected users in advance with a clear explanation of the change. We do not share your data with advertisers, gambling operators, or any commercial third parties seeking to market products or services directly to you.

phgo uses a minimal set of cookies that are strictly necessary for the platform to function correctly, including session cookies that keep you logged in during your visit and preference cookies that remember your language and display settings. We do not use third-party advertising cookies, cross-site tracking pixels, or any technology designed to follow your browsing behaviour outside of the phgo platform. When you first visit phgo, a cookie notice will be displayed to inform you of our cookie practices, and you may adjust your browser settings at any time to block or delete cookies, although doing so may affect the functionality of certain platform features. Analytics data collected through first-party tools is aggregated and anonymised before any analysis is conducted, meaning no individual user can be identified from the data we review. We review our cookie practices regularly to ensure they remain aligned with current Philippine data protection guidance and international best practice.

phgo implements industry-standard technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal information against unauthorised access, loss, alteration, or disclosure. These measures include encrypted data storage, secure HTTPS connections across all pages of the platform, and restricted internal access to personal data on a need-to-know basis only. We retain your personal information for as long as your account remains active or as required to fulfil the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, and for any additional period required by Philippine law or legitimate business need. If you close your account, we will securely delete or anonymise your personal data within a reasonable period, except where retention is required by applicable law or where data has already been irreversibly anonymised. In the unlikely event of a data breach that poses a risk to your personal information, phgo will notify affected users and the relevant Philippine regulatory authority within the timeframes prescribed by law.

Under the Republic Act No. 10173, also known as the Data Privacy Act of 2012, Filipino users have the right to be informed about how their personal data is being processed, to access the personal data we hold about them, and to correct any inaccurate or outdated information. You also have the right to object to the processing of your personal data under certain circumstances, to request the erasure or blocking of your data where it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, and to data portability where technically feasible. To exercise any of these rights, please contact the phgo support team with your full registered name, email address, and a clear description of your request, and we will respond within the period required by applicable law. phgo will not retaliate against or penalise any user for exercising their data rights in good faith. We are committed to making the process of exercising your rights as straightforward and accessible as possible for all users in the Philippines.

phgo reserves the right to update this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in our data practices, platform features, or applicable Philippine law. When material changes are made, we will update the effective date shown at the top of this page and, where appropriate, notify registered users via email or an in-platform notice prior to the changes taking effect. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically so that you remain informed about how your personal information is being protected. Your continued use of phgo after the publication of any updated Privacy Policy constitutes your acceptance of the revised terms. If you do not agree with any changes to this policy, you should discontinue use of the platform and may contact us to request deletion of your account and associated personal data.
