j8com Privacy Policy

1. Overview and Scope

This Privacy Policy applies to all personal data processed by j8com in connection with the operation of the j8com.cam website and all related services, including account registration, deposit and withdrawal processing, gameplay, customer support, and marketing communications.

This Policy applies to all individuals whose data j8com processes, including registered players, individuals who inquire about j8com's services without completing registration, and visitors to the j8com.cam website. It does not apply to third-party websites, applications, or services that may be linked to or from the j8com platform.

j8com operates under a valid license issued by the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR). Our data processing activities are conducted in compliance with both the Data Privacy Act of 2012 and applicable PAGCOR regulatory requirements, including mandatory player data reporting obligations. Where PAGCOR regulatory requirements impose data processing obligations that differ from or supplement the general provisions of this Policy, those regulatory obligations take precedence.

7. Data Sharing and Disclosure

j8com does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to any third party for their own commercial purposes. We share your personal data only in the circumstances described below:

7.1 Regulatory and Law Enforcement Authorities

j8com is required to disclose player data to PAGCOR as part of our ongoing licensing obligations. We may also be required to disclose data to the Anti-Money Laundering Council (AMLC), the National Privacy Commission (NPC), Philippine courts, or law enforcement authorities where compelled by a valid legal order, subpoena, or regulatory direction.

7.2 Payment Processors and Banking Partners

We share the minimum necessary transactional data with GCash, PayMaya, BPI, BDO, Metrobank, and other payment partners solely for the purpose of processing deposits and withdrawals. These providers act as independent data controllers for their own data processing activities and are governed by their own privacy policies.

7.3 Identity Verification Service Providers

We engage reputable third-party KYC and identity verification providers to assist with the processing of identity documents. These providers are contractually bound to process your data only on j8com's instructions and in compliance with the Data Privacy Act of 2012.

j8com uses third-party service providers for cloud hosting, data storage, customer support software, and cybersecurity services. These providers are engaged under data processing agreements that require them to implement appropriate technical and organizational security measures.

7.5 Game Software Providers

Game providers whose software is integrated into the j8com platform may receive aggregated, anonymized gameplay statistics. Individual player identity data is not shared with game providers beyond what is strictly necessary to facilitate gameplay and prevent cheating.

8. International Data Transfers

Some of j8com's service providers — including cloud infrastructure and game software providers — may be located outside the Philippines. Where personal data is transferred to countries that may not offer equivalent data protection standards to those under the Data Privacy Act of 2012, j8com ensures that appropriate safeguards are in place.

These safeguards include contractual data processing agreements that incorporate the data protection standards required by the National Privacy Commission, and where applicable, adequacy determinations or binding corporate rules recognized under Philippine data protection law. You may request information about the specific safeguards applicable to your data by contacting our Data Protection Officer.

9. Data Retention

j8com retains personal data only for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by applicable law. The following retention periods apply:

Upon expiry of the applicable retention period, j8com will securely delete or anonymize your personal data in accordance with the Data Privacy Act's disposal requirements.
