betpm Privacy Policy
At betpm, your privacy is not just a compliance checkbox — it is a core part of how we operate. This Privacy Policy explains exactly what personal data betpm collects from players across the Philippines, how that data is used, who it may be shared with, and what rights you have over your own information. We encourage every betpm player to read this document carefully.
Your Data, Handled Right
Six principles that guide how betpm collects, stores, and uses the personal information of every registered player on our platform.
No Selling of Personal Data
betpm does not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties for commercial marketing purposes — ever. Your data belongs to you, not to advertisers or data brokers.
Bank-Grade Encryption
All personal and financial data transmitted between your device and betpm's servers is protected by TLS 1.3 encryption. Stored data is encrypted at rest using AES-256 protocols across all betpm systems.
You Control Your Data
Registered betpm players have the right to access, correct, and request deletion of their personal data subject to our legal obligations. Submit a data request any time through betpm's support team.
Philippine Law Compliance
betpm processes personal data in accordance with the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act 10173) and the regulations of the National Privacy Commission (NPC). Your rights as a Filipino data subject are fully respected.
Minimum Necessary Collection
betpm collects only the personal data that is necessary for the specific purposes described in this Privacy Policy. We do not collect data speculatively or in excess of what our regulatory obligations and service operations require.
Breach Notification
In the unlikely event of a personal data breach that poses a risk to your rights and freedoms, betpm will notify affected players and report to the National Privacy Commission within the timeframe required by Philippine law.

We do not sell your data. You can request access, correction, or deletion of your data at any time by contacting our support team. This Policy is governed by the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012.
betpm (referred to in this Privacy Policy as "betpm", "we", "us", or "our") is a PAGCOR-authorized online betting and gaming platform accessible at betpm.org. betpm provides Filipino players with access to sports betting, live casino, slots, bingo, jackpot games, and racing markets — all denominated in Philippine Peso (PHP / ₱) and supported by local Philippine payment methods.

This Privacy Policy applies to all registered betpm Players, all visitors to betpm.org, and all individuals whose personal data betpm processes in connection with operating the Platform — whether located in Manila, Cebu, Davao, Quezon City, Makati, or anywhere else in the Philippines.

- Consent: Marketing communications are sent solely on the basis of your freely given, specific, and informed consent. You may withdraw this consent at any time through your account settings or by contacting betpm's support team, without affecting the lawfulness of any processing carried out before withdrawal.
betpm does not use automated decision-making or profiling that produces legal or similarly significant effects on players, beyond the fraud detection and responsible gaming monitoring described above. Where automated assessments affect your account (e.g., flagging a transaction for manual review), you have the right to request human review of that assessment.

- Right to Erasure: You have the right to request deletion of your personal data where it is no longer necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, or where you have withdrawn consent. This right is subject to betpm's legal obligations — for example, we cannot delete transaction records during the retention period required by AML law.

Identity verification will be required before any data is disclosed or deleted.
The betpm Platform is strictly for adults aged 21 years and above, as required by PAGCOR and Philippine gaming regulations. betpm does not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under the age of 21.
If betpm becomes aware that personal data has been collected from a person under 21 years of age — whether through the KYC process, a report from a third party, or any other means — betpm will:
- Immediately suspend the relevant account pending investigation.
- Delete all personal data associated with the underage registration as soon as legally permissible.
- Refund any deposits made to the original payment method, subject to AML verification.
- Report the incident to PAGCOR as required by its regulatory framework.
Parents and guardians: If you believe a minor under your care has registered an account on betpm, contact betpm's support team immediately via live chat at betpm.org. betpm will investigate and take appropriate action without delay. Gambling by minors is illegal in the Philippines and is taken extremely seriously by betpm and PAGCOR.
betpm implements a comprehensive set of technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal data against unauthorized access, accidental loss, destruction, or alteration. These measures include:
- Transport Security: All data transmitted between your browser or mobile device and betpm's servers is encrypted using TLS 1.3. betpm enforces HTTPS across the entire betpm.org domain.
- Storage Encryption: Personal data stored in betpm's databases is encrypted at rest using AES-256 encryption. KYC documents are stored in isolated, access-controlled repositories with additional encryption layers.
- Access Controls: Access to personal data within betpm's systems is restricted on a strict need-to-know basis. Staff members are granted access only to the categories of data necessary for their specific role. All internal access is logged and audited.
- Multi-Factor Authentication: betpm's internal systems require multi-factor authentication for all staff accessing personal data or financial systems.
- Penetration Testing: betpm conducts regular security assessments and penetration tests of its platform infrastructure to identify and remediate vulnerabilities before they can be exploited.
- Incident Response Plan: betpm maintains a documented data breach response plan that defines escalation procedures, notification timelines, and remediation steps in the event of a security incident.
- Staff Training: All betpm staff who handle personal data receive regular data privacy and security training aligned with the requirements of the Data Privacy Act of 2012.
While betpm takes all reasonable steps to protect your personal data, no online platform can guarantee absolute security. You are encouraged to use a strong, unique password for your betpm account and to enable two-factor authentication where available.
betpm's primary data processing infrastructure is located within the Philippines. However, certain service providers — including cloud hosting vendors, game software providers, and KYC technology partners — may process personal data in other jurisdictions.
Where personal data is transferred outside the Philippines, betpm ensures that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect the data, including:
- Contractual clauses in data processing agreements that impose privacy and security obligations on the receiving party equivalent to those required under the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012.
- Transfers only to jurisdictions or organizations that the National Privacy Commission has determined provide an adequate level of data protection.
- Where neither of the above applies, betpm will obtain your explicit consent before transferring your personal data internationally, and will inform you of the potential risks of such transfers.
You may request information about the specific countries to which your personal data may be transferred, and the safeguards applied to those transfers, by contacting betpm's Data Protection Officer using the details in Section 15.
betpm may send you promotional communications about bonuses, new games, special events, and platform updates. Marketing communications are sent only where you have provided explicit consent during registration or subsequently through your account settings.

- SMS to your registered Philippine mobile number.
- Push notifications through the betpm platform (where enabled in your browser or device settings).

- Clicking the unsubscribe link at the bottom of any betpm marketing email.
- Contacting betpm's support team via live chat or email and requesting to be removed from marketing communications.
Withdrawing consent to marketing communications will not affect your ability to use the betpm platform or receive essential service communications such as deposit confirmations, withdrawal notifications, and security alerts — these are sent on the basis of contract performance and cannot be opted out of while your account is active.
betpm reviews and updates this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in our data practices, the services we offer, or applicable Philippine privacy law. The "Last Updated" date at the top of this page indicates when the most recent revision was made.
