Privacy Policy – otso88 Online Gaming Platform

1Introduction

This Privacy Policy ("Policy") describes how otso88 collects, uses, processes, and protects your personal data when you create an account, access our platform, place bets, play games, or interact with our services. otso88 is committed to protecting your privacy and handling your data responsibly.

By using the otso88 platform, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy and agree to the practices described here. If you disagree with any aspect of this Policy, you should not use the platform.

2Information We Collect

A. Information You Provide Directly

• Account Registration: Full legal name, date of birth, contact details (email, phone number), residential address, and payment method information.
• Identity Verification: Government-issued ID, proof of address, and other documents required during KYC (Know Your Customer) verification before processing withdrawals.
• Payment Data: Bank account details or e-wallet information used to make deposits and withdrawals. This data is transmitted via secure encrypted channels and is not stored on otso88 servers — it is processed directly by trusted payment providers.
• Communication: Messages you send to support, feedback you provide, and information shared during account inquiries or dispute resolution.

B. Information Collected Automatically

• Device Data: IP address, device type, operating system, browser type, and unique device identifiers used to detect suspicious activity and enforce the one-account-per-person policy.
• Activity Data: Record of your bets, games played, deposits, withdrawals, account logins, and all transactions — maintained for your account history and regulatory compliance.
• Cookies & Similar Technologies: We use cookies to maintain your session, remember your preferences, and understand how you interact with the platform (covered in detail in Section 9).

3How We Use Your Data

otso88 uses your personal information for the following purposes:

• Providing Services: Creating and managing your account, processing deposits and withdrawals, settling bets, and delivering gaming services.
• Verification & Compliance: Conducting identity and address verification to comply with anti-money laundering (AML) and know-your-customer (KYC) regulations.
• Account Security: Detecting fraud, unauthorised access attempts, multiple accounts from the same person, and other abusive activity. We use your device data, location information, and login patterns to identify suspicious behaviour.
• Customer Support: Responding to your inquiries, resolving account issues, and handling disputes or complaints related to your gaming activity.
• Legal Obligations: Complying with laws, court orders, and regulatory requests from relevant authorities in jurisdictions where we operate.
• Communications: Sending you notifications about your account, promotion details (if you opt in), security alerts, and platform updates.

We do not sell your data to third parties for direct marketing purposes. We will not contact you with promotional offers unless you have explicitly opted in to receive them.

4Legal Basis for Processing

We process your personal data on the following legal grounds: (a) to perform services you have requested and contracted for; (b) to comply with applicable laws and regulations; (c) to protect our legitimate interests in preventing fraud, maintaining platform security, and enforcing our terms; and (d) where applicable, based on your explicit consent.

In all cases, we process your data fairly and transparently, and we do not use it for purposes incompatible with those for which it was collected.

5Sharing Your Data

Your personal data is not shared with unrelated third parties for their own use. However, we do share data with the following categories of service providers:

• Payment Processors: Banks and e-wallet providers (GCash, Maya, and others) that process your deposits and withdrawals. They receive only the minimum information needed to execute the transaction securely.
• Identity Verification Services: Third-party verification providers who confirm the authenticity of identity documents during KYC procedures. They are bound by confidentiality agreements and do not retain your data after verification is complete.
• Regulatory Authorities: Information may be disclosed to government agencies, law enforcement, or regulatory bodies when legally required by court order, subpoena, or applicable law.
• Service Providers: Hosting providers, security firms, and other technical service providers who help us operate the platform securely. These providers process data only as directed by otso88 and are contractually bound to protect your privacy.

All third-party service providers are contractually required to maintain the confidentiality and security of your data and are prohibited from using it for any purpose other than fulfilling the services we have contracted them to provide.

6Security Measures

otso88 implements comprehensive security measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, alteration, or loss:

• All data transmitted to and from the platform is encrypted using SSL (TLS 1.2 or higher).
• Account access is protected by password authentication and two-factor OTP verification.
• Data is stored on secure servers with restricted access and regular security audits.
• We monitor for suspicious activity and employ automated fraud detection systems.
• Our team undergoes regular security training and is bound by strict confidentiality agreements.
• We maintain incident response procedures and promptly investigate any suspected data breaches.

While we implement robust safeguards, no security system is entirely foolproof. You are responsible for protecting your own credentials and should never share your password or OTP codes with anyone, including otso88 staff.

7Data Retention

We retain your personal data for as long as necessary to provide services to you and comply with our legal obligations:

• Active Accounts: While your account is open, we retain all necessary data to operate your account, process transactions, and maintain your gaming history.
• Closed Accounts: After account closure, we retain certain data for 5–7 years to comply with anti-money laundering regulations, resolve disputes, and defend legal claims.
• Identity Documents: Copies of identity verification documents are retained for the same period and then securely destroyed unless legal holds require extended retention.
• Transaction Records: Complete transaction histories are retained for regulatory compliance and to honour your right to access your data.

If you request deletion of your account and we have no legal obligation to retain your data, we will securely delete it within the timeframe specified in this Policy.

8Your Rights

You have the following rights regarding your personal data (subject to applicable law and the exceptions outlined in this Policy):

• Right of Access: You have the right to request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
• Right to Correction: You can request that we correct inaccurate or incomplete personal information in your account.
• Right to Deletion: You may request deletion of your personal data where we have no legal obligation to retain it (though some data must be kept for regulatory compliance).
• Right to Opt-Out: You can opt out of receiving promotional communications at any time by adjusting your account preferences or contacting support.
• Right to Know How Your Data Is Used: You can request details about how we process, share, and protect your data.
