Why We Use Your Personal Data

bit160 processes personal data only for specific, legitimate purposes. Using your data for anything beyond what is listed here would require your separate consent or an overriding legal obligation. Here is how bit160 uses the information collected from players:

  • Account creation and management: To set up and maintain your bit160 account, including processing your registration and managing your profile.
  • Identity verification (KYC): To confirm you meet the minimum age requirement of 21 years and to comply with anti-money-laundering regulations applicable to Philippine online gaming operators.
  • Transaction processing: To process deposits via GCash, Maya, BDO, BPI, UnionBank, and other supported local payment methods, and to settle withdrawal requests in Philippine Peso (₱).
  • Platform operation and improvement: To monitor how the platform is used, identify technical issues, and continuously improve the gaming experience for Filipino players.
  • Fraud prevention and security: To detect and prevent fraudulent activity, unauthorised access, money laundering, and other prohibited conduct described in our Terms and Conditions.
  • Customer support: To respond to your inquiries, resolve disputes, and assist you with any issues related to your bit160 account.
  • Marketing communications: To send you information about promotions, bonuses, and new features at bit160, subject to your communication preferences. You may opt out at any time.
  • Responsible gaming: To monitor gaming patterns and proactively apply responsible gaming measures where appropriate, in line with our duty of care to players.
  • Legal and regulatory compliance: To meet reporting, audit, and record-keeping obligations under Philippine law and gaming regulations.
bit160 does not use your personal data to make fully automated decisions that significantly affect you without human review – for example, a fully automated account ban. Decisions of significant impact always involve a member of the bit160 compliance or support team.

Who We Share Your Data With

bit160 does not sell your personal information to third parties. We share data only where necessary to operate the platform, comply with the law, or protect the safety of users and the integrity of the gaming environment. The parties who may receive your data include:

  • Payment service providers: GCash, Maya, GrabPay, Coins.ph, InstaPay/PESONet operators, BDO, BPI, UnionBank, and card networks (Visa, Mastercard). These providers process financial transactions and are required to handle data in compliance with their own privacy standards and applicable regulations.
  • Identity verification services: Third-party KYC providers who assist in verifying identity documents submitted by members to confirm eligibility and comply with AML requirements.
  • Fraud prevention and security vendors: Service providers who help bit160 identify suspicious activity, protect against unauthorised access, and maintain platform integrity.
  • Game software providers: Licensed game developers such as JILI and other content partners who supply the games on the platform. Data shared with these providers is limited to what is technically required to operate the games.
  • Regulatory and government authorities: Philippine gaming regulators, law enforcement agencies, or other government bodies when required by law, court order, or regulatory investigation.
  • Professional advisors: Lawyers, auditors, and compliance consultants who assist bit160 in managing legal obligations. These parties are bound by confidentiality obligations.

All third parties who receive data from bit160 are contractually required to use it only for the stated purpose and to apply appropriate data protection measures. bit160 does not permit third parties to use your data for their own marketing purposes without your explicit consent.

Data Retention

bit160 retains your personal data for as long as your account is active and for a reasonable period afterwards to fulfil the purposes outlined in this policy. The minimum retention periods we apply are:

  • Account and transaction records: Retained for a minimum of five (5) years from the date of the last transaction, in line with anti-money-laundering record-keeping requirements under Philippine law.
  • KYC documents: Retained for the duration of the account relationship and for at least five (5) years after account closure.
  • Support communications: Retained for up to three (3) years from the date of the interaction for quality assurance and dispute resolution purposes.
  • Technical and usage logs: Typically retained for twelve (12) months, after which they are anonymised or deleted.
  • Marketing preferences: Retained until you withdraw consent or request their deletion, whichever comes first.

When your data is no longer needed, bit160 securely deletes or anonymises it. Anonymised data, which cannot be used to identify you, may be retained for analytical and statistical purposes beyond these periods.

  • Strictly necessary cookies: Required for the platform to function correctly. These include session cookies that keep you logged in while you navigate between pages. These cannot be disabled without affecting platform functionality.
  • Preference cookies: Remember your platform settings, language preferences, and personalisation choices so you don't need to reconfigure them on each visit.

  • Security cookies: Used to detect and prevent fraudulent logins, suspicious activity, and unauthorised access attempts.

You can manage or disable non-essential cookies through your browser settings at any time. Note that disabling certain cookies may affect how the platform works. bit160 does not use third-party advertising cookies or share cookie data with ad networks.

How We Protect Your Data

bit160 implements a range of technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data from unauthorised access, loss, alteration, or disclosure. These measures include:

  • SSL/TLS encryption across all data transmissions between your device and the bit160 platform.
  • Encrypted storage for sensitive personal and financial data at rest.
  • Access controls that restrict internal access to personal data to only those employees and contractors who need it to perform their roles.
  • Regular security assessments and vulnerability testing of platform infrastructure.
  • Two-factor authentication options available to members to protect account access.
  • Incident response procedures to detect, report, and respond to personal data breaches promptly.

While bit160 takes all reasonable precautions, no digital system is entirely immune to security risks. In the event of a data breach that poses a risk to your rights, bit160 will notify affected users and the National Privacy Commission of the Philippines in accordance with the Data Privacy Act and its implementing rules.
