This Privacy Policy applies to all personal data collected by pharcadeapk in connection with your use of the platform — including the website, mobile application, and any related services offered under the pharcadeapk brand.

This policy applies to all registered players in the Philippines. If you are accessing pharcadeapk from outside the Philippines, please note that the platform is designed for Philippine residents and all data handling is conducted in accordance with applicable Philippine data protection standards.

By using pharcadeapk, you consent to the collection, use, storage, and sharing of your personal data as described in this policy. This policy should be read alongside the Terms and Conditions, which govern your use of the platform overall.

2 What Personal Data We Collect

pharcadeapk collects personal data from you through multiple points of interaction with the platform. The types of data collected include:

pharcadeapk does not intentionally collect sensitive personal data beyond what is necessary for identity verification and fraud prevention. We do not collect data about your race, religion, political views, or health status.

3 How We Use Your Personal Data

pharcadeapk uses personal data collected from you for the following purposes:

• Account management: Creating and maintaining your pharcadeapk player account, including verifying your identity through KYC and enabling secure login via OTP.
• Transaction processing: Processing deposits in Philippine Peso through local payment channels and handling withdrawal requests to your verified payment account.
• Platform security: Detecting and preventing fraud, money laundering, and unauthorised account access. Technical data such as IP addresses and device information is used for security monitoring.
• Customer support: Responding to your queries and resolving account issues through the pharcadeapk support channels.
• Regulatory compliance: Meeting obligations required under applicable Philippine laws and regulations, including identity verification and transaction record-keeping requirements.
• Platform improvement: Analysing usage patterns in aggregate to improve the platform experience for all players. This analysis does not identify you individually.
• Responsible gaming: Monitoring gameplay patterns to identify potential responsible gaming concerns, consistent with our commitment to player wellbeing.

pharcadeapk will not use your personal data for purposes that are incompatible with those listed above without first notifying you and, where required, obtaining your consent.

4 When We Share Your Data

pharcadeapk does not sell, rent, or share your personal data with third parties for commercial purposes. Your data may be shared with third parties only in the following limited circumstances:

• Payment processing partners: Your financial data is shared with payment processors and financial institutions solely for the purpose of completing your deposit or withdrawal transaction in Philippine Peso. These partners are contractually bound to handle your data securely and only for the stated purpose.
• Identity verification services: KYC verification may involve sharing your identity documents with regulated identity verification providers operating under appropriate data protection standards.
• Legal and regulatory obligations: pharcadeapk may be required to disclose personal data to Philippine government authorities, law enforcement agencies, or courts when required by applicable law. We will only disclose the minimum data necessary to comply with any such requirement.
• Technology and infrastructure providers: Certain technical service providers who support the operation of pharcadeapk may process limited technical data under strict contractual data protection agreements.

5 How Long We Keep Your Data

pharcadeapk retains your personal data for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, including meeting any legal, regulatory, accounting, or reporting requirements.

In practice, this means:

• Account data is retained for as long as your pharcadeapk account is active.
• Transaction records are retained for the period required under applicable Philippine financial record-keeping obligations.
• KYC and identity verification records are retained in line with regulatory requirements applicable to online gaming platforms.
• If your account is closed — whether at your request or by pharcadeapk — certain data will be retained for the minimum period required by law before being securely deleted or anonymised.

If you would like more specific information about the retention period for a particular category of your data, you may contact pharcadeapk support.

6 How We Secure Your Data

pharcadeapk implements technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, loss, alteration, or disclosure. These measures include:

• SSL encryption: All data exchanged between your device and pharcadeapk is encrypted in transit using industry-standard SSL/TLS protocols.
• OTP verification: Sensitive account actions — including login from new devices and high-value transactions — require OTP (one-time password) verification via your registered mobile number.
• Access controls: Access to personal data within pharcadeapk systems is restricted to authorised personnel who require it to perform their job functions, and is subject to internal security policies.
• Ongoing monitoring: pharcadeapk monitors its systems for unusual activity that may indicate a security breach or unauthorised access attempt.

While pharcadeapk takes reasonable and appropriate steps to protect your data, no online platform can guarantee absolute security. You also play a role in keeping your account safe — keep your password private, never share OTP codes, and contact support immediately if you suspect your account has been compromised.

7 Cookies and Tracking Technologies

pharcadeapk uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on its website and mobile app to support platform functionality and improve the player experience.

The types of cookies used include:

• Essential cookies: Required for the platform to function correctly — for example, maintaining your logged-in session. These cannot be disabled without affecting platform functionality.
• Performance cookies: Used to understand how players interact with the platform, such as which pages are visited most and how long sessions last. This data is analysed in aggregate and does not identify individual players.
• Security cookies: Used to detect suspicious activity and support fraud prevention measures.

pharcadeapk does not use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies. If you prefer to manage your cookie settings, you can do so through your browser settings, though this may affect certain aspects of your pharcadeapk experience.

8 Your Data Rights

As a player in the Philippines, you have rights over your personal data held by pharcadeapk. These rights include:

• Right of access: You may request a copy of the personal data pharcadeapk holds about you.
• Right to correction: If any of your personal data held by pharcadeapk is inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to request that it be corrected.
• Right to erasure: In certain circumstances, you may request that pharcadeapk delete your personal data. This right is subject to legal and regulatory obligations that may require us to retain certain data.
• Right to object: You have the right to object to certain uses of your personal data, in particular where processing is based on legitimate interests rather than contractual necessity.
• Right to data portability: Where technically feasible and legally applicable, you may request that your personal data be provided to you in a structured, commonly used format.

To exercise any of these rights, contact pharcadeapk support with your request. We will respond within a reasonable timeframe and in accordance with applicable data protection requirements. You may be asked to verify your identity before your request can be processed.

9 Data of Minors

pharcadeapk is strictly for players aged 21 years and above in the Philippines. The platform does not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under the age of 21.

If pharcadeapk becomes aware that personal data has been collected from a person under the minimum age requirement, that account will be closed immediately and the associated data will be deleted. KYC identity verification is in place to help enforce this requirement.

If you believe a minor has registered on pharcadeapk, please contact our support team so that the matter can be addressed promptly.
