pbaodds Privacy Policy
Your privacy matters to us. This Privacy Policy explains how pbaodds collects, uses, stores, and protects your personal information when you use our Philippine betting and gaming platform. We process all data in accordance with the Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act No. 10173).
pbaodds is committed to full transparency in how we handle the personal data of Filipino players. Here is a quick summary of our key data protection commitments.
All personal data collected by pbaodds is stored on secured servers with industry-standard encryption at rest. Access to your data is strictly controlled and limited to authorised personnel with a legitimate operational need.
As a Filipino player, you have the right to access, correct, and request deletion of your personal data held by pbaodds, in accordance with the Data Privacy Act of 2012. You can exercise these rights by contacting our Data Protection Officer.
pbaodds does not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to unaffiliated third parties for their own marketing purposes — ever. Your data is used solely to operate and improve the pbaodds platform and to meet our legal obligations.
We use cookies and similar tracking technologies only to improve your experience on pbaodds. Essential session cookies are required for the platform to function. You can manage optional analytics and preference cookies through your browser settings.
pbaodds processes personal data in full compliance with the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012. We maintain a registered Data Protection Officer and uphold the principles of transparency, legitimate purpose, and proportionality in all data processing activities.
In the unlikely event of a personal data breach that poses a real risk to Filipino players, pbaodds will notify affected individuals and the National Privacy Commission (NPC) within the timeframes required by Philippine data protection law.
This Privacy Policy ("Policy") describes how pbaodds ("we", "us", "our") collects and processes personal data from users ("Player", "you", "your") of the pbaodds platform at pbaodds.app. This Policy applies to all services offered through pbaodds, including sports betting, live casino, slots, bingo, e-sports wagering, and the Ocean King Jackpot game. By registering on or using pbaodds, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Policy. This Policy forms part of the pbaodds Terms & Conditions by reference.
pbaodds is committed to protecting the privacy and personal data of all Filipino players who use our platform. We understand that trust is the foundation of any long-term relationship, and we take our responsibilities as a personal data controller seriously. This Policy has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of Republic Act No. 10173, the Data Privacy Act of 2012 of the Philippines ("DPA"), and its Implementing Rules and Regulations.
As a platform focused on the Philippine market, pbaodds serves players across Manila, Cebu, Davao, Quezon City, Makati, and cities throughout the archipelago.

We process personal data based on the principles of transparency, legitimate purpose, and proportionality as mandated by the DPA. We collect only the data that is necessary for the purposes described in this Policy, we use it only in the ways we describe, and we retain it only for as long as necessary.
pbaodds acts as the personal data controller for all personal data collected through the pbaodds.app platform. Our registered Data Protection Officer (DPO) oversees all data protection activities and can be contacted at the details provided in Section 14 of this Policy.

pbaodds applies the principle of data minimisation — we collect only the personal data that is directly necessary for the purposes stated in this Policy. We do not collect sensitive personal data (such as religion, political affiliation, or medical records) unless you voluntarily provide such information in the context of a responsible gaming support interaction.
pbaodds uses the personal data we collect for the following clearly defined purposes:

pbaodds processes personal data on the following legal bases as provided under the Data Privacy Act of 2012 and its Implementing Rules and Regulations:
- Contractual Necessity — Processing required to perform our contractual obligations to you under the pbaodds Terms & Conditions, including account management, processing of bets, and handling of deposits and withdrawals in PHP.
- Legal Obligation — Processing required to comply with applicable Philippine laws and regulations, including anti-money laundering obligations, KYC requirements, and reporting obligations to gaming regulatory authorities.
- Legitimate Interests — Processing necessary for our legitimate interests in operating a secure and fair gaming platform, including fraud prevention, platform security, responsible gaming monitoring, and analytics — provided these interests are not overridden by your rights and interests.
- Consent — Processing based on your freely given, specific, informed, and unambiguous consent, including sending you marketing communications about pbaodds promotions, bonuses, and new game categories. You may withdraw this consent at any time.
pbaodds does not sell your personal data. We may share your personal data with the following categories of third parties, strictly on a need-to-know basis and subject to appropriate data processing agreements:
We share necessary financial and identity data with payment processors that facilitate GCash, PayMaya, BPI, BDO, Metrobank, and Visa/Mastercard transactions. These providers process data solely to execute and verify your transactions and are bound by strict confidentiality and security obligations.
To meet our age verification and AML obligations, we may share identity documents and related data with licensed third-party KYC verification providers. These providers are contractually prohibited from using your data for any purpose beyond the verification service they provide to pbaodds.
We use third-party fraud detection and security services to protect our platform and players from fraudulent activity. These services may process device identifiers, IP addresses, and transaction patterns to identify and prevent suspicious activity.
pbaodds may be required by law to disclose personal data to Philippine government agencies, regulatory authorities (including PAGCOR), or law enforcement bodies. We will only make such disclosures where we are legally obligated or permitted to do so, and where practicable, we will notify you before doing so.
Our platform infrastructure is supported by technology service providers (including cloud hosting services). These providers may process personal data solely as data processors on our behalf, under strict contractual terms that prohibit independent use of the data.
pbaodds will never sell, rent, or exchange your personal data with unaffiliated companies for their own commercial use. We do not share your betting history, financial data, or identity documents with marketing companies, data brokers, or any entity that has not executed a formal data processing agreement with pbaodds.
The pbaodds platform uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to ensure the platform functions correctly, to improve your experience, and to understand how Filipino players interact with our services. The following categories of cookies are used:
- Strictly Necessary Cookies — Essential for the platform to operate. These include session cookies that authenticate your login, maintain your bet slip, and preserve your account preferences. These cookies cannot be disabled without impairing your ability to use pbaodds.
- Performance & Analytics Cookies — Used to collect anonymised information about how players use the platform (page load times, feature usage, error rates). This data helps us improve platform performance. These cookies do not identify you personally.
- Functional Cookies — Store your preferences such as language settings, odds format, and interface layout so that your choices are remembered between sessions.
- Security Cookies — Support fraud detection and authentication security functions, including protection against cross-site request forgery (CSRF) and session hijacking.
You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings. Please note that disabling strictly necessary cookies will prevent you from logging in to pbaodds. For detailed information about the specific cookies in use, please contact our support team.

pbaodds implements comprehensive technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. Our security framework includes:
- TLS/SSL encryption for all data transmitted between your browser or device and pbaodds servers
- AES-256 encryption for personal data stored at rest on pbaodds servers
- Multi-factor authentication (MFA) for administrative access to systems containing personal data
- Role-based access controls ensuring that pbaodds staff can only access the personal data they need for their specific job function
- Regular third-party security audits and penetration testing of the pbaodds platform
- Automated real-time monitoring for suspicious access patterns and potential data breach indicators
- Secure payment processing via PCI DSS-compliant payment gateways — card data is never stored on pbaodds servers
While pbaodds takes all reasonable precautions to safeguard your personal data, no online platform can guarantee absolute security. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your pbaodds login credentials. If you suspect your account has been compromised, contact our support team immediately.
In the event of a personal data breach that poses a real risk to your rights and freedoms, pbaodds will notify affected players and file the required notification with the National Privacy Commission (NPC) within 72 hours of becoming aware of the breach, in compliance with NPC Circular 16-03.
Under the Data Privacy Act of 2012, all Filipino players have the following rights in relation to their personal data held by pbaodds. You may exercise any of these rights by contacting our Data Protection Officer at the details provided in Section 14:
- Right to be Informed — You have the right to be informed about how pbaodds collects and processes your personal data, as set out in this Policy.
- Right to Access — You have the right to request a copy of the personal data that pbaodds holds about you, including information about how it is being used.
- Right to Rectification — You have the right to request correction of any inaccurate or incomplete personal data we hold about you.
- Right to Erasure — You have the right to request deletion of your personal data where it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, subject to our legal retention obligations.
- Right to Object — You have the right to object to the processing of your personal data where we rely on legitimate interests as our legal basis, including for direct marketing purposes.
- Right to Data Portability — You have the right to receive a copy of your personal data in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format, and to request that we transmit this data to another controller where technically feasible.
- Right to Restrict Processing — You have the right to request that pbaodds restricts the processing of your personal data in certain circumstances, such as while a rectification request is being assessed.
- Right re: Automated Decisions — You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing that produces significant effects on you, without human review.
pbaodds will respond to all data subject rights requests within 15 business days of receipt. We may ask you to verify your identity before processing your request. In complex cases, we may extend this period by a further 15 business days, in which case we will notify you of the extension and the reasons for it.
If you believe your data privacy rights have been violated, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the National Privacy Commission (NPC) of the Philippines. The NPC is the government body responsible for enforcing the Data Privacy Act of 2012.
To exercise any of your data subject rights, contact the pbaodds Data Protection Officer by email at the address provided in Section 14 of this Policy. Please include your registered pbaodds account username and a clear description of the right you wish to exercise. Identity verification will be required before we can process your request.
The pbaodds platform is strictly for players aged 21 years and above in accordance with Philippine gaming regulations. We do not knowingly collect, process, or retain personal data from individuals under the age of 21. This age restriction reflects both the legal requirements of Philippine gambling law and our commitment to responsible gaming.
During the registration process, all players are required to provide their date of birth and to confirm that they are aged 21 or over. All accounts are subject to mandatory KYC age verification using government-issued identification documents before any deposit or withdrawal may be processed.
If pbaodds discovers or has reasonable grounds to believe that a registered account belongs to a person under the age of 21, we will immediately suspend the account, reverse any pending transactions, and permanently delete all personal data associated with that account. Any winnings accrued on an underage account will be forfeited.
If you are aware of a minor attempting to access the pbaodds platform, please contact our support team immediately at the email address provided in Section 14. We take underage gambling extremely seriously and will act promptly on all reports.
pbaodds primarily stores and processes personal data of Filipino players within the Philippines or in jurisdictions that provide an adequate level of data protection. In limited circumstances, personal data may be transferred to, or accessible from, countries outside the Philippines — for example, where we use global cloud infrastructure providers or specialist third-party technology services.
Where such international transfers occur, pbaodds ensures that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your personal data in accordance with the Data Privacy Act of 2012. These safeguards may include:
- Data processing agreements incorporating standard contractual clauses approved by the National Privacy Commission
- Transfers only to jurisdictions that the NPC has determined provide an adequate level of data protection
- Binding corporate rules where transfers occur within a corporate group
For more information about the international transfer safeguards in place for a specific processing activity, please contact our Data Protection Officer.
The pbaodds platform may contain links to third-party websites or services — for example, links to PAGCOR's official responsible gaming resources or to payment service provider portals. This Privacy Policy applies only to the pbaodds platform and does not cover the privacy practices of any third-party website or service.
pbaodds has no control over and accepts no responsibility for the content, privacy policies, or data processing practices of any third-party site. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any third-party website you visit before providing your personal data to that site.
pbaodds reserves the right to update or amend this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our data processing practices, applicable Philippine laws, or regulatory requirements. The effective date at the top of this Policy indicates when it was last updated.
Where we make material changes to this Policy — that is, changes that significantly affect how we process your personal data or your rights as a data subject — we will notify you by email to your registered pbaodds email address and/or by a prominent notice on the pbaodds platform at least 14 days before the changes take effect.
Your continued use of the pbaodds platform after the effective date of a revised Policy constitutes your acceptance of the updated terms. If you do not agree with any material changes to this Policy, you have the right to close your pbaodds account and request erasure of your personal data as described in Section 9.
We recommend reviewing this Privacy Policy periodically. The most current version of this Policy is always available at pbaodds.app/privacy-policy. If you have opted in to receive communications from pbaodds, we will also notify you by email when significant updates are made.
If you have any questions, concerns, or requests relating to this Privacy Policy or the way pbaodds handles your personal data, please contact our Data Protection Officer. We are committed to resolving all privacy-related enquiries promptly and transparently.
