798jl Privacy Policy — How We Handle Your Data
At 798jl, your personal data is handled with the same care and security we apply to your funds. This Privacy Policy explains exactly what information we collect, how we use it, who we share it with, and the rights you hold as a Filipino player under Philippine law.
Introduction
798jl is a PAGCOR-licensed online gaming platform serving Filipino players across the Philippines, with users from Metro Manila, Cebu, Davao, Iloilo, Pampanga, Cagayan de Oro, and beyond. We take our obligations as a personal information controller seriously and are committed to protecting the privacy and personal data of every player who registers with or visits the 798jl platform.
This Privacy Policy applies to all personal data collected through the 798jl website at https://798jl.net, including through account registration, gameplay, financial transactions, customer support interactions, and any other activity on the platform. By registering for a 798jl account or using the platform, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy.
This Privacy Policy should be read together with the 798jl Terms & Conditions, which govern your overall use of the platform. Where this Privacy Policy uses the term "personal data", it refers to any information that can identify you directly or indirectly as an individual — including your name, contact details, account credentials, device identifiers, and financial information.
Data Controller
798jl acts as the personal information controller in respect of all personal data collected and processed through the platform. As a personal information controller, 798jl determines the purposes and means of processing your personal data, and is responsible for ensuring that such processing complies with the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012 and related NPC issuances.
798jl has appointed a Data Protection Officer (DPO) who is responsible for overseeing compliance with applicable data protection legislation, handling data subject requests, and serving as the primary point of contact for data privacy matters. Contact details for the 798jl DPO are provided in Section 15 of this Privacy Policy.
Personal Data We Collect
798jl collects the following categories of personal data from registered players and platform visitors:
| Category | Examples | Required? |

| Identity Data | Full legal name, date of birth, government-issued ID number, nationality | Required |
| Contact Data | Email address, Philippine mobile number, residential address | Required |

| Communications Data | Support chat logs, email correspondence, feedback submissions | Where applicable |
| Verification Data | Copies of government-issued ID, proof of address, selfie or video verification (KYC) | Required for withdrawals |
798jl does not collect sensitive personal information beyond what is strictly necessary for identity verification, age verification (21+ requirement), and regulatory compliance purposes. We do not collect health data, religious affiliation, or political views.
How We Collect Your Data
798jl collects personal data through the following channels:
- Direct registration: When you create a 798jl account, you provide your identity, contact, and account data directly through the registration form.
- Account activity: As you use the 798jl platform — placing bets, playing casino games, slots, bingo, or sabong — gaming data and financial transaction records are generated and stored automatically.
- KYC verification: When you submit documents for identity or age verification, we collect the personal data contained in those documents, including copies of your government-issued Philippine ID.
- Payment processing: When you make a deposit or request a withdrawal using GCash, PayMaya, BPI, BDO, Metrobank, or another payment channel, financial data is collected through the transaction process.
- Automated technical collection: When you visit the 798jl website, technical data including your IP address, device identifiers, and browsing behaviour on the platform is collected automatically through cookies and similar technologies.
- Customer support: When you contact the 798jl support team, communications data is collected and stored for the purpose of resolving your query and maintaining a record of the interaction.
- Third-party verification providers: Where 798jl uses approved third-party KYC or identity verification services to confirm your identity, data may be received from those providers as part of the verification process.

Legal Basis for Processing
Under the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012, 798jl relies on the following legal bases for processing your personal data:
- Contractual necessity: Processing is necessary for the performance of the contract between 798jl and the player — specifically, the Terms & Conditions governing the player account. This covers account management, payment processing, and game delivery.
- Legal obligation: Processing is necessary to comply with 798jl's legal obligations under Philippine law, including PAGCOR licensing requirements, anti-money laundering obligations under the AMLA, and tax reporting obligations under the BIR.
- Legitimate interests: Processing is necessary for the legitimate interests of 798jl, including fraud prevention, platform security, responsible gaming monitoring, and the improvement of our services — provided those interests are not overridden by your rights and freedoms.
- Consent: Where 798jl processes personal data for marketing communications or for optional platform features, we rely on your freely given, specific, informed, and unambiguous consent. You may withdraw this consent at any time.
Data Sharing and Disclosure
798jl does not sell your personal data to third parties. We share personal data only in the following limited circumstances and with appropriate safeguards in place:
- PAGCOR and Philippine regulatory authorities: As a licensed operator, 798jl is required to submit player data and gaming activity reports to PAGCOR and, where applicable, to the Anti-Money Laundering Council (AMLC) and the Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR), in compliance with our licensing and legal obligations.
- Payment service providers: Personal and financial data is shared with verified Philippine payment processors — including GCash, PayMaya, BPI, BDO, and Metrobank — to process deposits and withdrawals. These providers are bound by their own data protection obligations and are not authorised to use your data for any other purpose.
- Identity verification providers: 798jl may share identity data with approved KYC and age verification service providers for the purpose of verifying your identity and confirming you meet the 21+ age requirement.
- Technology and hosting providers: 798jl uses third-party technology infrastructure providers to operate the platform. These providers process data on our behalf and are bound by data processing agreements that prohibit independent use of the data.
- Law enforcement: Where required by a valid legal order, warrant, or directive from a competent Philippine authority, 798jl will disclose personal data as required by law.
Cookies and Tracking Technologies
798jl uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on the platform to ensure proper functionality, improve your user experience, and support security monitoring. The following types of cookies may be used:
- Strictly necessary cookies: Required for the platform to function correctly. These include session authentication cookies that keep you logged into your 798jl account, and security tokens that protect against cross-site request forgery. These cannot be disabled without impairing platform functionality.
- Functional cookies: Used to remember your preferences, such as language settings, display options, and previously selected game categories, to personalise your 798jl experience.
- Analytics cookies: Used to collect aggregated, anonymised data about how players navigate and interact with the platform, enabling 798jl to identify areas for improvement. Analytics data does not identify individual players.
- Security and fraud-prevention cookies: Used to detect unusual or suspicious activity patterns, including potential bot activity or account takeover attempts.
You may manage your cookie preferences through your browser settings. Please note that disabling strictly necessary cookies will prevent the 798jl platform from functioning correctly and may prevent you from accessing your account.
Data Retention
798jl retains personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by applicable Philippine law. The following retention periods apply:
- Active account data: Retained for the duration of your active 798jl account plus a minimum of five (5) years after account closure, in compliance with PAGCOR and AMLA record-keeping requirements.
- Financial transaction records: Retained for a minimum of five (5) years following the date of the transaction, in compliance with anti-money laundering obligations and BIR record-keeping requirements.
- KYC and identity verification documents: Retained for a minimum of five (5) years following account closure, as required by PAGCOR licensing conditions and the AMLA.
- Customer support communications: Retained for three (3) years following the closure of the relevant support interaction, for dispute resolution and quality assurance purposes.
- Technical and device data: Retained for twelve (12) months from collection, unless a longer retention period is required for a specific security investigation.
- Marketing consent records: Retained for the duration of your consent and for three (3) years following withdrawal of consent, as evidence of compliance.
Following the expiry of the applicable retention period, personal data is securely deleted or anonymised in accordance with 798jl's data disposal procedures.
Data Security
798jl implements a comprehensive set of technical and organisational security measures designed to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. Our security measures include:
- 256-bit SSL/TLS encryption for all data transmitted between your device and the 798jl platform;
- Encryption of sensitive data at rest within our databases, including financial account details and identity documents;
- Strict access controls, ensuring that personal data is accessible only to 798jl staff and authorised processors with a legitimate need for access;
- Multi-factor authentication requirements for administrative access to systems holding personal data;
- Regular security audits, penetration testing, and vulnerability assessments conducted by qualified information security professionals;
- Documented incident response procedures to ensure prompt detection, reporting, and management of any data security incident.
While 798jl takes all reasonable precautions to safeguard your personal data, no online platform can guarantee absolute security. You are also responsible for maintaining the security of your own account credentials — see Section 4 of the 798jl Terms & Conditions for your security responsibilities.
Your Data Privacy Rights
As a data subject under the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012, you hold the following rights in respect of your personal data held by 798jl. You may exercise any of these rights by contacting the 798jl Data Protection Officer using the details in Section 15.
Children's Privacy and Age Restriction
798jl is strictly an adult platform. In accordance with Philippine law and PAGCOR licensing requirements, the 798jl platform is available only to persons who are 21 years of age or older at the time of registration.
798jl does not knowingly collect personal data from any person under 21 years of age. Age verification is a mandatory step in the 798jl registration and KYC process. Where 798jl becomes aware that personal data has been collected from a person under the age of 21, that account will be immediately suspended, and the personal data of the underage individual will be deleted as promptly as operationally and legally permissible.
Third-Party Links
The 798jl platform may contain links to third-party websites, payment processors, and service providers. This Privacy Policy applies only to the 798jl platform itself. 798jl is not responsible for the privacy practices or content of any third-party website or service that you access via a link from the 798jl platform.
We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party services you use in connection with your 798jl account, including the privacy policies of GCash, PayMaya, and other payment providers, before providing those services with any personal data.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
798jl reserves the right to amend this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in applicable Philippine law, NPC guidance, PAGCOR requirements, or our internal data processing practices. Material changes to this Privacy Policy will be communicated to registered players via the email address associated with their account and/or through a prominent notice on the 798jl platform prior to the changes taking effect.
The effective date of the most current version of this Privacy Policy is displayed at the top of this document. Your continued use of the 798jl platform following the effective date of any amendment constitutes your acknowledgment of the revised Privacy Policy. If you do not accept the revised terms, you should discontinue use of the platform and may request account closure in accordance with the 798jl Terms & Conditions.
