POLICY SCOPE AND BASIS
What This Policy Covers and Why We Collect Data
When you create an account on philwn, we collect the details you enter during registration — your name, contact information and the payment method you choose to fund your account. If you use GCash or InstaPay as your deposit or withdrawal route, we record transaction references tied to those rails so we can verify transfers and resolve any discrepancy. We also collect device and session data — such as browser type, IP address and pages visited — to keep the account environment stable and to detect unusual access patterns. We do not sell your personal data to third parties. Data we hold is used strictly to operate your account, process your transactions and respond to your support requests. Retention periods follow applicable data-protection requirements in regions where access is permitted by local law. You can review the full retention schedule by contacting our support team. Our lawful basis for processing depends on the jurisdiction in which you access the platform; nothing in this policy creates a legal claim beyond what local law allows.

INSIDE AND OUTSIDE SCOPE
Where This Policy Applies to Your philwn Account
Not every interaction you have online falls under this policy. Understanding the boundaries helps you know when philwn is responsible for your data and when a third party's own terms govern instead.
Account Access and Registration
Any information you submit when opening or maintaining your philwn account — login credentials, contact details, identity documents requested during verification — is fully within this policy's scope. We control how that data is stored and who can access it.
Payment Transactions via GCash or InstaPay
When you initiate a deposit or withdrawal through GCash or InstaPay, we receive a transaction reference and status from the payment rail. That reference is covered here. The data GCash or InstaPay holds on its own systems is governed by their respective privacy policies, not ours.
Site Content and Session Behaviour
Pages you visit, games you open and session duration are logged in our system to support account security and to present your transaction history accurately. This data stays within our platform and is not shared with advertisers or analytics brokers.
Third-Party Services and Links
If you follow a link that takes you away from philwn — to a payment provider, a game studio's own page or an external support resource — that destination has its own privacy practices. We are not responsible for data collected outside our platform boundary.
YOUR PRIVACY CHOICES
Actions You Can Take Under This Policy
You have practical options when it comes to the personal data we hold on your account. Requesting a copy of your account record, correcting a detail that was entered incorrectly, or asking us to delete data we no longer need are all actions we can process when you contact our support team. To review your transaction history — including GCash deposits and InstaPay transfers — log into your account and open the wallet section; the records shown there are drawn directly from our database. If you notice an error in your registered name, email address or contact number, submit a correction request through the support channel and we will update the record after verifying your identity. For any question about how we store your data or how long we keep it, reach out through the contact paths listed in the section below. We aim to respond to privacy-related requests within the period required by applicable law in your eligible region.
Review Your Records
Log into your account and open the wallet section to see your full transaction history, including GCash and InstaPay entries. For a broader data export, contact support and we will walk you through the request process as allowed under applicable local law.
Correct Account Details
If your registered name, phone number or email address is wrong, raise a correction request with support. We verify your identity before making any change, and we update the record as soon as verification is complete.
Request Data Deletion
You can ask us to remove personal data we no longer need to operate your account. We will confirm what can be deleted under our retention obligations and process the request within the timeframe local law requires for eligible regions.
Raise a Privacy Question
Any question about this policy — what we collect, why we keep it, or how to exercise a right — can be sent directly to our support team. We do not route privacy queries through automated responses; a real team member handles them.

HOW WE PROTECT YOUR DATA
Data Handling, Cookies and Account Security Practices
We apply access controls to limit who within our team can view personal data, and we require identity verification before processing any account-level changes. Cookies placed on your device are used to keep your session active and to remember your account preferences — not to track you across unrelated websites. You can manage cookie settings through your browser; disabling session cookies will require you to log in again each visit. Payment data connected to GCash or InstaPay transactions is stored as reference identifiers, not as raw wallet credentials. We do not store your GCash PIN or InstaPay access codes at any point. Retention of account data continues for as long as your account is active and for the additional period required by applicable law in your eligible region after closure.
Access Controls
Personal data on your account is accessible only to team members who need it to perform their role. We review those access permissions on a regular basis and remove them when no longer required, reducing the risk of internal misuse.
Cookie Handling
Session cookies keep you logged in during your visit. Preference cookies remember your account display settings. We do not use advertising-network cookies. Your browser settings let you control or clear cookies at any time without affecting your account data.
Payment Reference Security
When you deposit or withdraw via GCash or InstaPay, we record only the transaction reference and status — never your wallet PIN or authentication codes. That reference is visible in your wallet history and used only to match the transfer to your account.
Policy Updates
When this policy changes in a material way, we post the updated version on this page and note the date it takes effect. Continuing to use your account after a change is published means you have read the updated terms. You can request the previous version from support.
PRIVACY QUESTIONS ANSWERED
Frequently Asked Questions About Your Privacy on philwn
These are the privacy questions we hear most from account holders. If your question is not covered here, the support channels above are the direct path to an answer.
What personal information does philwn collect when I open an account?
We collect the details you enter during registration: your name, email address, contact number and any identity documents required during verification. We also log device and session data — such as IP address and pages visited — to keep your account secure and your session stable.
Does philwn share my GCash or InstaPay transaction data with third parties?
We do not sell or share your transaction data with advertisers or unrelated third parties. We record only the transaction reference and status provided by GCash or InstaPay to match the transfer to your account. The data those providers hold on their own systems is covered by their own policies.
How can I see what personal data philwn holds about me?
Log into your account and open the wallet section to review your transaction history. For a broader record of the personal data we hold — such as your registration details and support correspondence — contact us through live chat or email and we will process your access request under applicable law.
Can I ask philwn to delete my account data?
Yes. You can submit a deletion request through our support channels. We will confirm which data can be removed immediately and which must be retained for the period required by applicable law in eligible regions. We respond to deletion requests within the timeframe local law requires.
How do I correct a mistake in my registered account details?
Contact support through live chat or email with the correction you need — name, phone number or email address. We verify your identity before making any change. Once verification is complete, we update the record and confirm by email to your registered address.
How long does philwn keep my account data after I close my account?
We retain account data for the period required by applicable data-protection and financial-record laws in the regions where access is permitted. After that retention period ends, we delete or anonymise the data. You can ask our support team for the specific period that applies to your account.
