pub778 Privacy Policy
pub778 is committed to protecting the personal data of every registered player in the Philippines. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, why we collect it, how it is used and stored, and what rights you have over your own data — all in compliance with Philippine law.
How pub778 Protects Your Data
These six cards summarize pub778's core data protection commitments. They are supported in full by the detailed legal policy below.
Philippine Law Compliance
pub778 processes all personal data in compliance with the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act 10173) and its Implementing Rules and Regulations, as overseen by the National Privacy Commission (NPC).
256-Bit SSL Encryption
All personal data transmitted between your device and pub778's servers is protected by 256-bit SSL encryption. Account credentials, payment details, and KYC documents are never transmitted or stored in an unencrypted format.
Purpose-Limited Collection
pub778 only collects the personal data it genuinely needs to operate accounts, process payments, comply with regulations, and provide customer support. We do not collect data speculatively or beyond what is proportionate to our stated purposes.
No Sale of Personal Data
pub778 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to third-party advertisers, data brokers, or marketing agencies. Your information is not a commodity. It is used solely to support your account and gaming experience on the Platform.
Transparency & Access
You have the right to know what personal data pub778 holds about you, request a copy, request corrections, and under qualifying circumstances, request deletion. pub778 will respond to all valid data subject requests within the timelines set by Philippine law.
Defined Retention Periods
pub778 retains personal data only for as long as it is required for the original collection purpose or as mandated by applicable Philippine regulations. Account data is not held indefinitely after an account is closed without a documented legal basis for extended retention.

Introduction & Scope
This Privacy Policy ("Policy") describes how pub778 ("pub778," "we," "us," or "the Company") collects, processes, stores, discloses, and protects the personal data of individuals ("you," "your," or "Data Subject") who access or use the pub778 online gaming platform available at pub778.club (the "Platform"), including all related sub-domains, mobile interfaces, and associated services.
This Policy applies to all personal data processed in connection with your registration, account management, deposits, withdrawals, gameplay, bonus participation, customer support interactions, and any other use of the pub778 Platform or its services. It applies whether you access pub778 from Manila, Cebu, Davao, Quezon City, Makati, or any other location in the Philippines.
By registering an account on pub778 or otherwise using the Platform, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Policy and consent to pub778's processing of your personal data as described herein. If you do not agree with this Policy, you must not use the pub778 Platform.
This Policy is supplementary to and should be read in conjunction with pub778's Terms and Conditions, which govern the overall use of the Platform.
Data Controller
For the purposes of the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act 10173) and its Implementing Rules and Regulations, pub778 acts as the Personal Information Controller (PIC) with respect to the personal data of registered players and Platform users.
As Personal Information Controller, pub778 is responsible for determining the purposes and means of processing your personal data and for ensuring that such processing is conducted lawfully, fairly, and transparently in accordance with applicable Philippine data protection law.
pub778 has designated a Data Protection Officer (DPO) responsible for overseeing compliance with this Policy and applicable data protection obligations. Contact details for the DPO are provided in Section 15 of this Policy.

pub778 collects the following categories of personal data in connection with the operation of the Platform and the delivery of services to registered players:
| Category | Data Types | Collected When |
|---|---|---|
| Identity Data | Full legal name, date of birth, nationality, government-issued ID details | Registration & KYC verification |
| Contact Data | Email address, mobile number, residential address | Account registration |
| Financial Data | GCash number, PayMaya account, bank account details (BPI, BDO, Metrobank), transaction history | Deposit & withdrawal processing |
| KYC Documents | Copies of government-issued ID, selfie/liveness verification images, proof of address | Identity verification process |

pub778 does not collect sensitive personal information as defined under the Philippine Data Privacy Act (such as racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious beliefs, health data unrelated to responsible gaming assessments, or criminal record information) except where specifically required by applicable anti-money laundering regulations or where you have expressly provided such information in the context of a responsible gaming support interaction.
How We Collect Personal Data
pub778 collects personal data through the following means:
- Directly from you: When you complete account registration, submit KYC documentation, make a deposit or withdrawal, contact customer support, opt in to promotional communications, or otherwise interact with the Platform.
- Automatically through the Platform: Technical data including IP addresses, device identifiers, session data, and browsing behavior on the Platform is collected automatically through server logs, cookies, and similar technologies when you access and use pub778.club. See Section 6 for full cookie information.
- From payment processors: When you make a deposit or withdrawal, pub778's payment processing partners (including GCash and PayMaya operators) transmit transaction confirmation data to pub778 to reconcile account balances and maintain transaction records.
- From identity verification services: Where third-party KYC or liveness verification tools are used during account verification, those services transmit verification outcomes and supporting data to pub778 in order to confirm your identity and age.
- From fraud prevention and security systems: pub778 uses automated risk assessment and fraud detection systems that may process account data, device fingerprinting signals, and behavioral patterns to identify potentially fraudulent or prohibited activity.

Cookies & Tracking Technologies
pub778 uses cookies and similar technologies (including local storage, session storage, and pixel tags) on the Platform to support functionality, measure performance, and maintain session security. The following cookie categories are used:
- Strictly Necessary Cookies: Required for the Platform to function correctly. These include session authentication tokens, login persistence cookies, and security cookies. They cannot be disabled without significantly impairing the Platform's usability. No consent is required for these cookies.
- Functional Cookies: Enable enhanced features such as remembering your language preference, game display settings, and whether you have dismissed on-screen notices. Disabling these cookies will result in loss of personalized settings.
- Analytics Cookies: Used by pub778 to measure aggregate user behavior on the Platform — such as which game categories are most visited and how players navigate the site. Data collected through analytics cookies is aggregated and not linked to individual identities for reporting purposes. These cookies require your consent where applicable.
- Security and Fraud Prevention Cookies: Used by pub778's fraud detection systems to identify anomalous patterns, bot activity, or unusual device behavior. These cookies are part of pub778's security infrastructure and operate in the background without collecting content from your device.
You may manage cookie preferences through your browser settings. Most modern browsers allow you to block or delete cookies. Note that blocking strictly necessary cookies will prevent you from logging in to or using your pub778 Account. pub778 does not use cookies to serve third-party advertising or share behavioral data with external advertising networks.
Data Sharing & Disclosure
pub778 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data. pub778 may share your personal data with the following categories of recipients, strictly on a need-to-know basis and subject to appropriate contractual data protection obligations:
- Payment Processors: GCash, PayMaya, BPI, BDO, Metrobank, and other approved payment service providers receive the personal and financial data necessary to process your deposit and withdrawal requests.
- KYC and Identity Verification Partners: Third-party identity verification service providers receive identity and document data to complete age and identity verification processes required for account compliance.
- Game Providers: Certified game providers operating on the pub778 Platform may receive anonymized or pseudonymized session identifiers to deliver game functionality. Game providers do not receive your full identity or financial data.
- Fraud Prevention and Security Services: Specialist fraud detection and cybersecurity service providers may access account and technical data to identify and mitigate fraudulent activity on the Platform.
- Regulatory and Law Enforcement Authorities: pub778 is required by law to report certain information to PAGCOR, the Anti-Money Laundering Council (AMLC), the National Privacy Commission (NPC), and other Philippine regulatory bodies where required. pub778 will also respond to lawful requests from law enforcement authorities in accordance with applicable Philippine law.
- Legal and Professional Advisors: pub778's legal counsel, auditors, and compliance advisors may access personal data where strictly necessary for the provision of professional advice, subject to professional confidentiality obligations.
International Data Transfers
pub778 operates primarily within the Philippines and prioritizes the use of service providers with operations in the Philippines or the Asia-Pacific region. In some cases, however, the provision of services may involve the transfer of personal data to servers or service providers located outside the Philippines — for example, where cloud infrastructure, game provider platforms, or specialist security services operate from other jurisdictions.
Where such international transfers occur, pub778 ensures that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your personal data to a standard at least equivalent to the protections afforded under the Philippine Data Privacy Act. Such safeguards may include contractual data processing agreements, standard contractual clauses, or transfers to jurisdictions that the National Privacy Commission has recognized as providing adequate protection.
By using the pub778 Platform, you acknowledge and consent to the transfer of your personal data to jurisdictions outside the Philippines where this is necessary for the provision of Platform services, subject to the safeguards described above.
Data Security
pub778 implements appropriate technical and organizational security measures designed to protect your personal data against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, loss, or destruction. Security measures in place at pub778 include:
- Transport Layer Security: All data transmitted between your device and pub778's servers is protected by 256-bit SSL/TLS encryption. The Platform does not accept unencrypted HTTP connections.
- Data-at-Rest Encryption: Personal data and financial records stored in pub778's databases are encrypted at rest using industry-standard encryption protocols.
- Access Controls: Access to personal data within pub778's internal systems is restricted on a strict need-to-know basis. Access is authenticated, logged, and subject to regular review.
- Two-Factor Authentication: pub778 offers 2FA for player accounts and enforces 2FA for internal administrative access to systems holding personal data.
- Regular Security Audits: pub778's technical infrastructure undergoes periodic security reviews and penetration testing to identify and address potential vulnerabilities.
- Incident Response: In the event of a personal data breach affecting your rights and interests, pub778 will notify affected players and the National Privacy Commission (NPC) within the timeframes required by the Data Privacy Act.
No security system is entirely infallible. While pub778 takes all reasonable steps to protect your personal data, you also have a responsibility to maintain the security of your account credentials and to promptly report any unauthorized activity to pub778 support.
Data Retention
pub778 retains personal data only for as long as it is necessary for the purpose for which it was collected or as required by applicable Philippine law. The following general retention guidelines apply:
- Active Account Data: Personal data associated with an active pub778 account is retained for the full duration of the account's active status plus any mandatory post-closure retention period required by law.
- Transaction and Financial Records: Deposit, withdrawal, and gaming transaction records are retained for a minimum of five (5) years following the transaction date, in accordance with applicable Philippine anti-money laundering record-keeping requirements.
- KYC Documents: Identity verification documents are retained for a minimum of five (5) years following the closure of the associated account or the completion of the last transaction, whichever is later.
- Customer Support Communications: Live chat transcripts and support email correspondence are retained for a minimum of two (2) years from the date of the interaction.
- Marketing Data: Where processing is based on consent, marketing preference data is retained until consent is withdrawn. Upon withdrawal, pub778 will suppress the data subject's details from marketing communications within a reasonable operational timeframe.
Following the expiry of the applicable retention period, personal data is securely deleted or anonymized in accordance with pub778's internal data disposal procedures. Anonymized aggregate data — which can no longer be linked back to any individual — may be retained indefinitely for analytical and reporting purposes.

Minors & Age Restriction

Third-Party Services & Links
The pub778 Platform integrates third-party services — including certified game providers, payment processors, and security tools — in order to deliver its services to players. These third parties operate under their own privacy policies and data processing agreements, which govern how they handle any personal data shared with them by pub778 in accordance with this Policy.
pub778 is not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party services that operate independently of the Platform. pub778 enters into data processing agreements with all third-party processors to ensure that personal data is handled to a standard consistent with this Policy and applicable Philippine law.
The pub778 Platform does not contain links to external third-party websites for advertising or referral purposes. Any links present on the Platform are limited to internal Platform pages.

Material changes to this Policy will be communicated to registered players via the email address registered to their Account and/or via a notice prominently displayed on the Platform.
Your continued use of the pub778 Platform following the publication of an updated Policy constitutes your acknowledgment of and agreement to the revised terms. The effective date at the top of this document will always reflect when the Policy was last reviewed and updated. We encourage you to review this Policy periodically.
