2.1 Information You Provide Directly

  • Registration Information: When you create a ph959 account, we collect your full legal name, date of birth, gender, email address, mobile phone number, residential address, and chosen username and password. This information is necessary to establish your player identity and verify your eligibility (21+ age requirement in the Philippines).

Our data centers employ 24/7 security monitoring, restricted physical access with biometric authentication, redundant power and cooling systems, and regular equipment maintenance and updates.

Despite these measures, no system is completely secure. If you suspect unauthorized access to your account, change your password immediately and contact our support team at [email protected].

7. Data Retention

ph959 retains your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy and to comply with legal, regulatory, and contractual obligations. Specific retention periods include:
