This includes your full name, date of birth, email address, mobile number, and residential address in the Philippines. We also collect financial information such asyour preferred payment method details and transaction history, which are required to process deposits and withdrawals in Philippine pesos.

All information collected is limited to what is genuinely necessary for the purposes described in this policy, and we do not collect sensitive personal data beyond what is required for identity verification and regulatory compliance.

Information You Provide Directly

The most significant portion of the data we hold about you is information you provide to us voluntarily during registration, account verification, or when contacting our support team. This includes the details you enter into registration forms, documents you submit for identity verification such as a government-issued ID or proof of billing address, and any messages or queries you send to our team. We treat all directly submitted information with strict confidentiality and store it only for as long as it is needed to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected. If you update your account details at any time, we will retain the most recent version of your information and may keep prior records where required by law or for dispute resolution purposes.

Automatically Collected Data

When you access the apk 1 platform through a mobile device or web browser, certain technical information is collected automatically as part of normal platform operation. This includes your IP address, the type and version of your device and operating system, the pages or features you access, the time and duration of your sessions, and any error or crash reports generated during your visit. This data is used solely for platform security monitoring, fraud prevention, and improving the overall performance of our service for Filipino players. We do not use automatically collected data to build advertising profiles or share it with third-party marketing networks.
