These providers process your financial data under their own privacy policies and applicable regulatory requirements.
For KYC purposes, phnice works with identity verification service providers who process government-issued ID data and biometric information in accordance with Philippine data protection law. These providers are contractually prohibited from using your data for any purpose other than identity verification for phnice.
Game studios and platform providers whose games appear on phnice may receive limited technical data (e.g., session tokens, game round IDs) necessary for game operation and RNG certification. No personally identifiable information beyond session identifiers is shared with game content providers for routine game operation.
phnice engages third-party service providers for hosting, analytics, fraud detection, and customer support infrastructure. These providers process personal data only under phnice's documented instructions and are subject to data processing agreements with appropriate security and confidentiality obligations.
phnice does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to third parties for their own commercial or marketing purposes.
phnice uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to operate the platform, maintain your login session, detect fraud, and improve the user experience. The following categories of cookies are used:
You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings. Disabling strictly necessary cookies will impair your ability to log in and use phnice. phnice does not use third-party advertising cookies or cross-site tracking technologies for commercial advertising purposes.
phnice retains personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected, subject to the following minimum retention periods required by law:
After applicable retention periods expire, personal data is securely deleted or anonymised. Data that has been anonymised is no longer personal data and may be retained indefinitely for aggregate analytics.
phnice implements technical and organisational security measures appropriate to the sensitivity of the personal data it processes. Security measures include:
Despite these measures, no internet-based system can guarantee absolute security. phnice encourages all players to use strong, unique passwords and enable two-factor authentication on their phnice accounts.

If phnice becomes aware that personal data has been collected from a person under 21, that data will be deleted promptly and the associated account will be closed with any deposits returned via the original payment method after verification.
If you believe that a person under 21 has registered a phnice account, please contact phnice support immediately at [email protected].
phnice operates primarily within the Philippines and processes most personal data on servers located in the Philippines. Where phnice engages third-party service providers (such as cloud hosting, analytics, or fraud detection vendors) that process data outside the Philippines, phnice ensures that appropriate safeguards are in place in accordance with the National Privacy Commission's requirements for cross-border data transfers, including data processing agreements with standard contractual clauses where applicable.
