How yyyph Approaches Data Protection

Before you dive into the full policy, here's a plain-language summary of how yyyph thinks about your privacy. These principles guide every decision we make about data.

Minimum Data, Maximum Purpose

yyyph only collects the data we actually need to run the platform, process your transactions, and keep your account secure. We don't hoover up information for the sake of it.

Bank-Grade Encryption

All data exchanged between your device and yyyph is protected with 256-bit SSL/TLS encryption — the same standard used by major Philippine banks. Your details travel safely, always.

Never Sold to Third Parties

yyyph does not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to any third party for marketing purposes — full stop. Your data is yours, not a commodity for us to profit from.

You're Always in Control

yyyph gives you meaningful control over your own data. Request access, corrections, or deletion at any time through your account settings or by contacting our support team.

Plain Language, Always

This policy is written in plain Philippine English — not dense legalese. If something isn't clear, our support team can explain any section in more detail, anytime.

Breach Notification

In the unlikely event of a data breach affecting your personal information, yyyph will notify you promptly and take immediate steps to contain the breach and protect your account.

Whether you're browsing as a guest, creating an account for the first time, or you've been a regular kabayan player for months, this policy governs how yyyph handles your personal data.

yyyph is committed to complying with applicable Philippine data protection laws, including the Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act No. 10173) and the rules and regulations issued by the National Privacy Commission. As a Filipino player, you have rights under that law, and yyyph respects and upholds all of them.

Data Privacy Act of 2012 (RA 10173): As a registered entity serving Filipino players, yyyph complies with Philippine data privacy law. Your rights as a data subject — including access, correction, and erasure — are protected and enforceable.

4. Who We Share Your Data With

yyyph does not sell your personal data. We share data only with trusted partners and in circumstances required by law. The following categories of third parties may receive your data:

4.1 Payment Processors

To process your GCash, Maya, bank transfer, and card transactions, yyyph shares the minimum necessary financial data with our certified payment processing partners. These partners are contractually bound to handle your data securely and only for payment processing purposes.

4.2 Identity Verification Providers

When you submit KYC documents, yyyph uses licensed identity verification service providers to validate your identity. These providers process your identification data under strict data processing agreements and are not permitted to retain or use your data for any other purpose.

4.3 Regulatory and Law Enforcement Authorities

yyyph is required by law to share certain information with gaming regulators, tax authorities, financial intelligence units, and law enforcement agencies when legally compelled to do so. We will not share more data than legally required and will always act in compliance with due process.

4.4 Technology and Infrastructure Partners

yyyph uses third-party technology providers for services such as cloud hosting, analytics, and customer support software. These providers act as data processors on behalf of yyyph and operate under binding data processing agreements that prohibit any use of your data outside the scope of their contracted service.

yyyph does not share your data with advertisers, data brokers, or any company for marketing purposes without your explicit consent.

5. How Long We Keep Your Data

yyyph retains personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, comply with legal obligations, and resolve any outstanding disputes. The following general retention periods apply:

  • Account data: Retained for the duration of your account's existence plus a minimum of five (5) years after account closure, in line with anti-money laundering regulations.
  • Transaction records: Retained for a minimum of five (5) years from the date of each transaction for regulatory compliance purposes.

  • Technical and gameplay logs: Retained for up to two (2) years for security monitoring and dispute resolution purposes.
  • Marketing consent records: Retained until you withdraw consent, plus a short period to confirm the withdrawal was processed correctly.

When retention periods expire, yyyph will securely delete or anonymise the data so it can no longer be linked to you personally.

6. How We Protect Your Data

yyyph takes data security seriously. We have implemented technical and organisational measures appropriate to the risk level of the data we process. These measures include:

  • 256-bit SSL/TLS encryption for all data transmitted between your device and yyyph servers.
  • Encrypted storage for all sensitive personal and financial data at rest.
  • Access controls ensuring that only authorised yyyph personnel can access personal data, and only to the extent necessary for their specific role.
  • Regular security audits and penetration testing conducted by independent third-party security firms.
  • Two-factor authentication (2FA) available for all yyyph player accounts.
  • Continuous monitoring for suspicious access patterns, unusual login behaviour, and potential security incidents.

No method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure. While yyyph takes every reasonable precaution, we cannot guarantee absolute security. In the event of a breach that poses a risk to your personal data, yyyph will notify you and the relevant authorities without undue delay.

7. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

yyyph uses cookies and similar technologies to make the platform function correctly, improve your experience, and collect analytics data. Here's a plain explanation of what we use and why:

7.1 Essential Cookies

These cookies are strictly necessary for yyyph to function. They manage your session login, remember your language preferences, and enable core platform features. You cannot opt out of these without losing functionality.

7.2 Analytics Cookies

yyyph uses anonymised analytics to understand how players navigate the platform — which pages are most popular, where players encounter difficulties, and how the platform performs on different devices. This helps us make yyyph better. Analytics data does not identify you personally.

7.3 Preference Cookies

These remember your settings and preferences so you don't have to re-enter them each session — for example, your preferred game category or notification settings.

You can manage your cookie preferences through your browser settings. Note that disabling non-essential cookies will not prevent you from using yyyph but may affect some platform features and personalisation.

8. Your Data Rights

As a data subject under Philippine law and applicable data protection regulations, you have the following rights regarding your personal data held by yyyph. You can exercise any of these rights by contacting our support team or through your account settings where applicable:

Right to Access

Request a copy of the personal data yyyph holds about you and information on how it is being used.

Right to Correction

Request that inaccurate or incomplete personal data about you be corrected or updated.

Right to Erasure

Request the deletion of your personal data where it is no longer necessary or where you withdraw consent, subject to legal retention obligations.

Right to Object

Object to yyyph processing your personal data for direct marketing or where processing is based on legitimate interests.

Right to Portability

Request your personal data in a structured, machine-readable format for transfer to another service provider.

Right to Withdraw Consent

Withdraw consent for marketing communications or other consent-based processing at any time, without affecting prior lawful processing.

How to Exercise Your Rights: Contact yyyph support via live chat or email at support@yyyph.best with the subject line "Data Rights Request." We will respond within thirty (30) days. We may need to verify your identity before processing your request.

9. Minors and Age Restriction

yyyph is strictly an 18+ platform. We do not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under eighteen (18) years of age. If you are under 18, do not attempt to register or use the yyyph platform.

Where yyyph discovers or has reasonable grounds to believe that a minor has registered an account, we will immediately suspend that account, delete all associated personal data, and reverse any transactions where possible. Age verification is a mandatory part of the KYC process for all yyyph accounts.

10. Cross-Border Data Transfers

yyyph may need to transfer your personal data to service providers or partners located outside the Philippines — for example, cloud infrastructure providers or identity verification services. Where such transfers occur, yyyph ensures that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your data to a standard equivalent to Philippine data protection law.

These safeguards include data processing agreements, contractual clauses, and — where applicable — transfers only to jurisdictions recognised as providing an adequate level of data protection. yyyph does not transfer personal data to regions with inadequate protections without implementing compensating contractual safeguards.

11. Changes to This Privacy Policy

yyyph may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in law, technology, or how we operate the platform. When we make material changes, we will update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page and notify registered players via email or in-platform notification before the changes take effect.

We encourage you to review this policy periodically. Your continued use of yyyph after changes take effect constitutes your acceptance of the updated Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with changes, you may close your account before the effective date.

12. Contact Us and Complaints
