How pub201 Protects Your Personal Information
These six principles summarize pub201's approach to your data. The full legal detail is in the sections below — we encourage you to read those too.
Data Minimization
pub201 collects only the personal data that is strictly necessary to operate our platform, comply with PAGCOR and AML regulations, and provide you with a safe and personalized gaming experience. We do not collect data for its own sake.
Encryption & Security
All data transmitted between your device and pub201 is protected by 256-bit SSL/TLS encryption. Personal data at rest is stored on secured servers with restricted access, regular security audits, and intrusion detection systems in place.
No Data Selling
pub201 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to third-party advertisers or data brokers under any circumstances. Your information is used solely to operate the pub201 platform and comply with applicable Philippine law.
Your Data Rights
Under RA 10173, you have the right to access, correct, delete, and object to the processing of your personal data. pub201 provides a clear process for exercising these rights described in Section 9 of this Policy.
PAGCOR Compliance
As a PAGCOR-licensed operator, pub201 is subject to regulatory data requirements including KYC verification and AML transaction monitoring. All such processing is conducted strictly within the bounds of Philippine gaming and data privacy law.
Breach Notification
In the unlikely event of a personal data breach affecting pub201 players, we will notify affected individuals and the National Privacy Commission within the timeframes required by RA 10173 and its Implementing Rules and Regulations.

Introduction
This Privacy Policy ("Policy") is issued by pub201 ("pub201," "we," "us," "our") and governs the collection, use, storage, disclosure, and protection of personal information relating to all users ("you," "Player," "Data Subject") of the pub201 online casino and sports betting platform accessible at pub201.cam ("the Platform").
pub201 is a PAGCOR-licensed online gaming operator committed to protecting the privacy and personal data of every player we serve across the Philippines — from Manila and Cebu to Davao, Iloilo, and beyond. We take our obligations under the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act No. 10173) and its Implementing Rules and Regulations ("IRR") seriously, and this Policy is designed to clearly communicate how we fulfill those obligations.
By creating a pub201 account, making a deposit, placing a wager, or otherwise using the Platform, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy and consent to the collection and processing of your personal data as described herein.

It applies to registered players, prospective registrants, and any individual who interacts with the pub201 Platform.
Data Controller

pub201 has appointed a Data Protection Officer (DPO) who is responsible for overseeing compliance with RA 10173, handling data subject rights requests, and serving as the point of contact for the National Privacy Commission (NPC). Contact details for pub201's DPO are provided in Section 14 of this Policy.

These providers act as Personal Information Processors (PIPs) under RA 10173 and are contractually obligated to process data only on pub201's documented instructions and with appropriate security measures in place.
6.4 No Sale of Personal Data
pub201 does not sell, rent, trade, or otherwise commercially transfer your personal data to third parties for their own marketing or commercial purposes. This prohibition applies regardless of the commercial value of the data involved.

7.2 Managing Cookies
You may control non-essential cookies through your browser settings. Please note that disabling strictly necessary cookies will impair your ability to use the pub201 Platform, including logging in and placing wagers. pub201 does not use cookies to deliver third-party behavioral advertising.

| Technical / Usage Logs | 12 months from collection | Security and fraud detection |
| Marketing Consent Records | Duration of consent + 3 years | Legal obligation (proof of consent) |
Upon expiry of the applicable retention period, pub201 will securely delete or anonymize your personal data in a manner that prevents its reconstruction.
Your Data Subject Rights
Under the Data Privacy Act of 2012 and its IRR, you have the following rights with respect to your personal data held by pub201:
Request a copy of the personal data pub201 holds about you, including how it is used and with whom it has been shared.
Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal data held by pub201. Some corrections may require re-verification of your identity.
Request deletion of your personal data where it is no longer necessary for the purpose it was collected. This right is subject to pub201's legal retention obligations.
Object to the processing of your personal data for marketing purposes or where pub201 relies on legitimate interest as the legal basis for processing.
Request your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format for transfer to another service provider.
Lodge a complaint with the National Privacy Commission (NPC) if you believe pub201 has processed your data unlawfully or in violation of RA 10173.
9.1 Exercising Your Rights
To exercise any of your data subject rights, submit a written request to pub201's Data Protection Officer using the contact details provided in Section 14. We will acknowledge your request within 5 business days and respond substantively within 30 days. Complex requests may require additional time, in which case we will notify you with an explanation and estimated timeline.
We may ask you to verify your identity before processing your request to protect you and other players from unauthorized data disclosure. This verification is a security measure, not an obstacle to exercising your rights.
Data Security Measures
pub201 implements a comprehensive set of technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal data against unauthorized access, accidental loss, destruction, or disclosure. These measures include but are not limited to:
- Transport Encryption: 256-bit SSL/TLS encryption for all data transmitted between your device and pub201's servers;
- At-Rest Encryption: Sensitive data fields including passwords and payment details are encrypted at rest using industry-standard algorithms;
- Access Controls: Strict role-based access controls ensure that only authorized pub201 personnel can access personal data, limited to what is necessary for their specific role;
- Two-Factor Authentication: pub201 staff access to systems containing personal data requires multi-factor authentication;
- Security Audits: Regular penetration testing, vulnerability assessments, and third-party security audits are conducted to identify and remediate security weaknesses;
- Incident Response: pub201 maintains a documented data breach response plan in compliance with NPC Circular 16-03 requirements.
Your Role in Security: While pub201 takes extensive measures to protect your data, you also have a role in keeping your account secure. Use a strong, unique password for your pub201 account, enable two-factor authentication, and never share your login credentials with anyone. If you suspect unauthorized access to your account, contact pub201 support immediately.
Children's Privacy and Age Restriction
pub201 is strictly intended for adults aged 21 years and above as required by PAGCOR regulations. pub201 does not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under the age of 21. Age verification is a mandatory step in the pub201 account registration process and is enforced through documentary KYC checks.
If pub201 discovers that it has inadvertently collected personal data from an individual who is under 21 years of age, we will immediately suspend the relevant account, delete or anonymize the collected data, and notify PAGCOR if required by our licensing obligations.
21+ Only: If you are aware of any person under 21 years old accessing the pub201 Platform, please report this to our customer support team or DPO immediately. Protecting minors from gambling harm is a legal and moral obligation that pub201 takes seriously.
Cross-Border Data Transfers
pub201's primary data processing infrastructure is located within the Philippines. Certain technology service providers engaged by pub201 may process data in other jurisdictions, including data centers located in Southeast Asia and other regions. Where such transfers occur, pub201 ensures that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your personal data to a standard equivalent to that required by RA 10173.
These safeguards may include contractual clauses in our agreements with Personal Information Processors that require them to apply Philippine data protection standards, or use of service providers that maintain internationally recognized security certifications (such as ISO 27001 or SOC 2). pub201 will not transfer personal data to a jurisdiction whose data protection standards are materially inferior to Philippine requirements without your prior consent or a valid legal basis under RA 10173.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
pub201 may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our data practices, Platform features, applicable law, or PAGCOR regulatory requirements. When we make material changes, we will notify registered players by email or by posting a prominent notice on the pub201 Platform at least 7 days before the changes take effect.
The "Last updated" date at the top of this Policy reflects the date of the most recent revision. We encourage you to review this Policy periodically to stay informed about how pub201 protects your personal information. Continued use of the pub201 Platform after the effective date of any revised Privacy Policy constitutes your acceptance of the updated terms.
