International Data Transfers
Some of our third-party service providers — including game software developers, analytics platforms, and cloud infrastructure providers — may be located outside the Philippines.

These safeguards may include contractual clauses that require the recipient to protect your personal data to standards equivalent to those required by the Data Privacy Act of 2012, or reliance on the recipient's adherence to internationally recognized data protection frameworks.
Cross-border transfers: 16ph Casino will not transfer your personal data to an overseas recipient unless we have taken reasonable steps to ensure that the recipient provides a comparable level of protection to that afforded under Philippine data privacy law. You may request information about specific cross-border transfer safeguards by contacting our Data Protection Officer.
