1. Overview
Ply time takes privacy seriously — not because it's a legal obligation (although it is), but because our players deserve to know exactly what happens to their information. Trust is what makes players choose ply time over other platforms, and that trust only holds if we handle your data with care.
This Privacy Policy covers all personal data collected when you use the ply time website, create an account, make transactions, participate in games and promotions, or contact our support team. It applies to all Filipino players and any other user who accesses the ply time platform regardless of location.
Ply time operates in compliance with the Philippines' Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act 10173) and its implementing rules and regulations. We are registered as a personal information controller with the National Privacy Commission (NPC) as required by law.
Short version: Ply time collects your data to run the platform, process payments, and keep your account safe. We don't sell your data. We don't share it without good reason. And you have the right to ask us to update or delete it.
2. What We Collect
Ply time collects the following categories of personal information:
| Category | Examples | Purpose |

3. How We Collect Your Information
Ply time collects personal information through the following channels:
Direct Collection
When you register an account, you provide your name, contact details, and date of birth directly. When you submit identity documents for verification, we collect that document data. When you contact support, we collect the details of that conversation. This is information you knowingly and voluntarily share with ply time.
Automated Collection
When you visit the ply time website or use the platform, certain technical data is collected automatically. This includes your IP address, device identifier, browser type, and session duration. We also log the games you access and the actions you take within the platform. This helps us keep the platform secure and identify unusual activity that may indicate fraud or unauthorized access.
Third-Party Sources
Where necessary for identity verification or fraud prevention, ply time may receive information from trusted third-party service providers such as identity verification agencies or payment processors. This data is only received when you have authorized us to do so, either directly or through the terms of the service provider you use.
4. How We Use Your Data
Ply time uses collected data for the following purposes:
- Account management: Creating, maintaining, and verifying your ply time account
- Transaction processing: Handling deposits, withdrawals, and bonus credits accurately and securely
- Identity verification: Confirming that you meet age and eligibility requirements in compliance with PAGCOR regulations
- Fraud prevention and security: Detecting and preventing unauthorized access, collusion, money laundering, and other prohibited activities
- Customer support: Responding to inquiries, resolving disputes, and improving service quality

Ply time does not use your data for automated decision-making that would have significant legal effects on you without human review, except as required by law enforcement or regulatory authorities.
5. Legal Basis for Processing
Under the Philippines Data Privacy Act, ply time processes your personal information based on the following lawful grounds:
- Contractual necessity: Processing required to operate your account and deliver the services you signed up for
- Legal obligation: Compliance with PAGCOR licensing requirements, anti-money laundering laws, and other applicable Philippine regulations
- Legitimate interests: Fraud prevention, platform security, and improvement of services — balanced against your privacy rights
- Consent: Marketing communications and non-essential cookie placement, where your opt-in is required and freely given
Where processing is based on consent, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before the withdrawal.
6. Who We Share Your Data With
Ply time does not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We share data only in the following circumstances:
Service Providers
We work with trusted third-party service providers who assist in operating the ply time platform. These include payment processors (GCash, Maya, and banking partners), identity verification providers, cloud hosting providers, and customer support software providers. Each provider is bound by a data processing agreement and may only use your data for the specific purpose for which it was shared.
Regulatory and Law Enforcement
Ply time is required by Philippine law to cooperate with PAGCOR, the Anti-Money Laundering Council (AMLC), the National Privacy Commission, and law enforcement agencies when formally requested. We will disclose only the minimum information necessary to comply with any lawful order.
Business Transfers
In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets involving ply time, personal data may be transferred as part of that transaction. You will be notified in advance and given the opportunity to object or request deletion.
We will never share your data with advertisers, data brokers, or any third party for their own marketing purposes without your explicit consent.
7. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
Ply time uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to operate the platform and improve your experience. Here is what each type does:
Essential Cookies
These are necessary for the platform to function. They keep you logged in during a session, maintain your game state, and enable secure transactions. You cannot opt out of essential cookies without losing access to the platform.
Analytics Cookies
These help ply time understand how players use the platform — which pages load slowly, which games are most popular, and where users tend to drop off. The data is aggregated and anonymized. You can opt out of analytics cookies in your account settings.
Preference Cookies
These remember your settings such as language preference and display options so you don't have to set them every time you visit.
You can manage your cookie preferences through your browser settings or the cookie consent tool on the ply time platform. Blocking certain cookies may affect how some features work.
8. How Long We Keep Your Data
Ply time retains personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purpose for which it was collected, or as required by law. The following retention periods apply:
- Account data: Retained for the duration of your account and for five (5) years after account closure, as required by PAGCOR and anti-money laundering regulations
- Transaction records: Retained for ten (10) years in compliance with Philippine financial regulations
- Support communications: Retained for two (2) years from the date of the last interaction
- Technical logs: Retained for ninety (90) days, after which they are automatically deleted
- Marketing preferences: Retained until you withdraw consent or close your account
At the end of the applicable retention period, personal data is securely deleted or anonymized so that it can no longer be associated with any individual.
9. How We Protect Your Data
Ply time implements technical and organizational measures designed to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. Key security measures include:

- Encryption of sensitive data at rest, including financial information and identity documents
- Multi-factor authentication options for account login
- Regular penetration testing and vulnerability assessments conducted by independent security firms
- Role-based access controls within ply time so staff can only access data relevant to their function
