At phpruby, your personal data is handled with the same care we put into every part of the platform. This Privacy Policy explains exactly what information we collect, why we collect it, how we use it, and the rights you have as a Filipino player under the Data Privacy Act of 2012.
phpruby ("phpruby," "we," "us," or "our") operates the online casino platform accessible at phpruby.net and through our mobile application (collectively, the "Platform").

This Privacy Policy is issued in compliance with Republic Act No. 10173, otherwise known as the Data Privacy Act of 2012 (DPA), its Implementing Rules and Regulations, and the issuances of the National Privacy Commission (NPC) of the Philippines. It also reflects applicable requirements under PAGCOR's regulatory framework for licensed online gaming operators.

If you do not agree, please discontinue use of the Platform and contact our support team to close your account.

Under the Data Privacy Act of 2012, phpruby processes your personal data on the following legal bases:
phpruby does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to third parties for their own marketing purposes. We share your data only in the following circumstances and only to the extent necessary:
We engage trusted third-party service providers who process data on our behalf under strict data processing agreements, including: KYC and identity verification providers; payment processors (GCash, PayMaya, Philippine banks); cloud hosting and infrastructure providers; customer support platform providers; and fraud detection and AML screening services.
phpruby is required by Philippine law to disclose personal data to PAGCOR, the Anti-Money Laundering Council (AMLC), the National Privacy Commission, and other competent authorities when lawfully required. We will notify you of such disclosures where permitted by law.
In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or substantially all of phpruby's assets, your personal data may be transferred to the acquiring entity, subject to the same privacy protections described in this Policy. We will notify registered users of any such transfer.
We may share your data with third parties for purposes not listed above if you have given your explicit prior consent to such sharing.
phpruby retains your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by applicable Philippine law and PAGCOR regulations. The following general retention periods apply:
Upon expiry of the applicable retention period, phpruby will securely delete or anonymise your personal data in accordance with NPC-approved disposal methods.
phpruby implements appropriate technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. These measures include:
In the event of a personal data breach that is likely to result in serious harm to your rights and freedoms, phpruby will notify the NPC within 72 hours of becoming aware of the breach and will notify affected users without undue delay, as required by the DPA.
While we take all reasonable steps to protect your data, no online platform can guarantee absolute security. You are responsible for keeping your phpruby login credentials confidential and for notifying us immediately if you suspect unauthorised access to your account.
phpruby uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to operate the Platform, remember your preferences, analyse usage patterns, and support security functions. The types of cookies we use include:
You may manage non-essential cookies through your browser settings. Disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of the Platform. phpruby does not use cookies to serve third-party advertising or to track your activity on other websites.
Under the Data Privacy Act of 2012, you have the following rights with respect to your personal data held by phpruby:
To exercise any of these rights, please contact our Data Protection Officer (see Section 14). We will respond to all verified requests within fifteen (15) business days, as required by the DPA.
phpruby strictly prohibits access by persons under 21 years of age, in compliance with Philippine law governing casino-style gambling. We do not knowingly collect personal data from minors. If we become aware that a minor has registered an account or provided personal data, we will immediately close the account, delete the associated data, and report the incident as required by applicable law.
If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has accessed phpruby, please contact our support team immediately so we can take appropriate action.
Some of phpruby's service providers and infrastructure partners may be located outside the Philippines. Where personal data is transferred to a country that does not provide an equivalent level of data protection to the DPA, phpruby will ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place, such as contractual clauses approved by the NPC or equivalent data transfer mechanisms, to protect your personal data in accordance with Philippine law.
phpruby will not transfer your personal data to jurisdictions that are subject to international sanctions or that are identified by the NPC as providing inadequate data protection, without your explicit prior consent.
phpruby reserves the right to update or amend this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in our data processing practices, applicable Philippine law, or NPC guidance. When material changes are made, we will update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page and notify registered users via email or in-platform notification where appropriate.
Your continued use of the Platform after the effective date of any amended Privacy Policy constitutes your acceptance of the updated terms. If you do not agree with any changes, you must stop using the Platform and may request account closure by contacting our support team.

Six key commitments that define how phpruby handles your personal data every single day.
All data transmitted between your device and phpruby's servers is protected by TLS/SSL encryption. Sensitive stored data — including passwords and financial details — is encrypted at rest using AES-256, the same standard used by major Philippine banks.
phpruby's identity verification process is designed to comply with both the Data Privacy Act of 2012 and PAGCOR's KYC requirements. We collect only the minimum data necessary to verify your identity and age, and we store it securely for the legally required period.
phpruby never sells, rents, or trades your personal data to third-party marketers. Your information is shared only with service providers who help us operate the Platform, and only under strict data processing agreements that bind them to the same privacy standards.
phpruby has appointed a registered Data Protection Officer (DPO) as required by the NPC. Our DPO oversees all data privacy compliance, handles your rights requests, and serves as the point of contact for the National Privacy Commission.
Under the DPA, you have the right to access, correct, delete, and port your personal data. You can update most account details directly in your phpruby settings, or contact our DPO for more complex requests. We respond within 15 business days.
In the unlikely event of a data breach that poses serious risk to your rights, phpruby will notify the NPC within 72 hours and inform affected users without undue delay — fully in line with the mandatory breach notification requirements of the Data Privacy Act.
Your privacy is protected. Your data is secure. Now enjoy the full phpruby experience — slots, live casino, bingo, and more — knowing your personal information is in safe hands.
