Legal Basis for Processing
abc58 processes personal data under the following legal bases, consistent with applicable data protection law:
- Performance of a contract: Processing necessary to register your abc58 account, verify your identity, process financial transactions, and provide games and betting services as requested.
- Legal obligation: Processing required to comply with anti-money laundering regulations, Know Your Customer requirements, responsible gaming obligations, and other applicable law.
- Legitimate interests: Processing for fraud prevention, platform security, internal analytics to improve services, and direct marketing to existing members — where those interests are not overridden by the data subject's rights and freedoms.
- Consent: Processing for optional marketing communications, non-essential cookies, and any other purpose where we have requested and obtained your specific agreement. Consent can be withdrawn at any time without affecting lawfulness of prior processing.
Cookies and Tracking Technologies
abc58 uses cookies and similar technologies to operate and improve the platform. A cookie is a small text file placed on your device when you visit the site. The categories of cookies used at abc58 are:
- Strictly necessary cookies: Required for the platform to function. These include session authentication tokens that keep you logged in to your abc58 account during a visit. They cannot be disabled without breaking core functionality.
- Functional cookies: Remember your preferences such as language settings, preferred stake sizes, and recently viewed games so your abc58 experience is more convenient across sessions.
- Analytics cookies: Collect aggregated, pseudonymised data about how the platform is used — which pages are visited most, where users encounter issues, and how the game catalogue performs. This helps abc58 improve the product.
- Marketing cookies: Used where you have consented to receive tailored promotions. These track whether you engaged with an abc58 promotional communication.
You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings. Note that disabling strictly necessary cookies will affect your ability to log in and use the abc58 platform. For analytics and marketing cookies, you can opt out by adjusting your account privacy preferences or updating your browser settings. A cookie consent banner is presented on your first visit to abc58 for non-essential cookies.
Data Sharing and Disclosure
abc58 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to third parties for their own marketing purposes. We share personal data only in the following limited circumstances:
- Game and platform technology providers: Third-party game developers and platform infrastructure providers who process data on behalf of abc58 to deliver services. These providers are bound by data processing agreements and may not use data for their own purposes.
- Payment processors: GCash, Maya, bank partners, and card networks require certain data to process deposit and withdrawal transactions. Data shared is limited to what is necessary for transaction completion.
- Identity verification services: Third-party KYC providers who verify government-issued ID documents as part of the account verification process.
- Fraud prevention and security services: Providers of fraud detection tools who process behavioural and technical data to identify suspicious activity on the abc58 platform.
- Legal and regulatory authorities: abc58 will disclose personal data to law enforcement, regulatory bodies, or courts when required by law or in response to a valid legal request. We will attempt to notify you of such requests unless prohibited from doing so by law.
- Business transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or asset sale, personal data held by abc58 may be transferred to the acquiring entity, subject to the same privacy protections described in this policy.
abc58 will never share your personal data with advertisers, data brokers, or any unaffiliated company for marketing purposes without your explicit prior consent.
Data Retention
abc58 retains personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes set out in this policy, plus any additional period required by applicable law. Key retention periods are:
- Active account data: Retained for the lifetime of the account plus a minimum of five years after account closure to comply with anti-money laundering regulations.
- Transaction records: Financial records including deposits, withdrawals, and wager histories are retained for a minimum of five years from the date of the transaction.
- KYC documentation: Identity verification documents are retained for the period required by applicable regulatory obligations, typically five years post-account closure.
- Support communications: Customer support transcripts are retained for up to three years from the date of the interaction, unless a longer period is required for an ongoing dispute.
- Marketing preference records: Records of consent or opt-out are retained indefinitely to defend against future complaints, even if other data has been deleted.
- Analytics data: Aggregated, anonymised analytics data may be retained indefinitely as it no longer constitutes personal data once it cannot identify an individual.
When retention periods expire, personal data is securely deleted or anonymised. You may request early deletion of non-legally-required data under the rights set out in Section 9, subject to any applicable legal retention obligations that override that request.
Data Security
abc58 implements technical and organisational security measures designed to protect your personal data from unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. Key measures include:
- Encrypted data transmission using TLS/SSL protocols for all data exchanged between your device and the abc58 platform
- Encrypted storage of passwords — abc58 never stores your password in readable form
- Access controls that restrict internal data access to personnel with a documented operational need
- Regular security assessments and monitoring of platform infrastructure
- Fraud detection systems that flag anomalous account behaviour in real time
While abc58 takes all reasonable precautions, no online platform can guarantee absolute security. You also have a role in protecting your account: choose a strong, unique password, do not share your abc58 login credentials with anyone, and log out of shared devices after each session. If you suspect unauthorised access to your account, contact abc58 support immediately.
Your Rights Over Your Personal Data
As an abc58 member you have the following rights in relation to your personal data. To exercise any of these rights, contact us at the details provided in Section 14. We will respond within a reasonable timeframe and at no charge for ordinary requests.
Request a copy of the personal data abc58 holds about you. We will confirm what data exists, why it is held, and who it has been shared with.
Request correction of any inaccurate or incomplete personal data held on your abc58 account. Some corrections may require re-verification.
Request deletion of your personal data where it is no longer needed for its original purpose, subject to any legal retention obligations that apply.
Request that abc58 limits how your data is used, for example while a disputed accuracy issue is investigated, without requiring full deletion.
Request a copy of your personal data in a structured, machine-readable format where processing is based on consent or contract performance.
Object to processing based on legitimate interests, including profiling and direct marketing. Marketing opt-outs take effect immediately upon request.
Please note that some rights are subject to limitations — for example, abc58 may be legally required to retain certain data regardless of a deletion request, or may need to verify your identity before fulfilling a data access request to ensure data is not handed to an unauthorised person.
Marketing and Communications Opt-Out
abc58 may send you promotional emails, SMS messages, and in-platform notifications about bonuses, new games, sports events, and platform updates. These communications are sent only where you have opted in during registration or on a separate basis.
- You can opt out of marketing emails at any time by clicking the unsubscribe link in any marketing message.
- You can update marketing preferences in your abc58 account settings.
- You can request opt-out by contacting abc58 support directly.
- Opting out of marketing does not affect transactional communications — you will still receive important account notifications such as deposit confirmations, withdrawal updates, and security alerts.
Members who have self-excluded under the responsible gaming tools are automatically removed from all marketing lists immediately upon exclusion. No promotional material will be sent to a self-excluded member for the duration of the exclusion period.
Children's Privacy
abc58 is strictly for adults aged 18 years and above. The platform does not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under 18. Registration requires date of birth confirmation and abc58 performs age verification checks as part of the KYC process.
If abc58 discovers or is notified that a minor has registered an account or provided personal data, the account will be closed immediately, balances will be handled in accordance with applicable rules, and all personal data related to the minor will be deleted from our systems as promptly as legally permissible.
If you are a parent or guardian and believe a minor may have registered at abc58, please contact support immediately with relevant details so we can act without delay.
Cross-Border Data Transfers
abc58 operates with the support of technology partners and service providers who may be located outside the Philippines. Where personal data is transferred to third countries, abc58 ensures that adequate protections are in place, including:
- Data processing agreements that require recipients to apply data protection standards consistent with this policy
- Use of service providers in jurisdictions recognised as providing adequate data protection
- Standard contractual clauses or equivalent safeguards where required
By using abc58 and providing personal data, you acknowledge that data may be transferred and processed in locations outside the Philippines for the purposes described in this policy, subject to the protections described above.
Updates to This Privacy Policy
abc58 reviews and updates this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in platform operations, legal requirements, or data handling practices. When material changes are made, we will notify registered members via the email address on their account or through a prominent notice on the abc58 platform before the changes take effect.
The "Last updated" date at the top of this page indicates when the current version came into effect. We encourage all abc58 members to review this page from time to time, particularly when they receive a notification of an update. Continued use of the platform after a policy update constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
