jl988 Privacy
Policy

This Privacy Policy is issued by jl988 ("jl988," "the Platform," "we," "us," "our") and applies to all personal data collected from individuals ("you," "User," "Player") who access jl988.org, register an account, make deposits, place wagers, or otherwise interact with any jl988 service.

jl988 is committed to processing your personal data lawfully, fairly, and transparently in accordance with the Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act No. 10173), its Implementing Rules and Regulations (IRR), and the issuances of the National Privacy Commission (NPC) of the Philippines. Where applicable, jl988 also processes data to comply with PAGCOR's regulatory requirements and the Anti-Money Laundering Act of 2001 (Republic Act No. 9160, as amended).

By accessing jl988.org or creating a jl988 account, you confirm that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy. Your continued use of jl988 constitutes your ongoing acknowledgment of this Policy. This Privacy Policy should be read alongside the jl988 Terms & Conditions.

For the purposes of the Data Privacy Act of 2012, the data controller responsible for personal data collected through jl988.org is:

• Platform Name: jl988

• Regulatory Status: Authorized by PAGCOR (Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation)

jl988 has registered its data processing systems with the National Privacy Commission in accordance with NPC Circular 16-01 and its amendments. Our appointed Data Protection Officer (DPO) may be contacted via the details provided in Section 15 of this Policy.

jl988 collects the following categories of personal data, depending on how you interact with the Platform:

jl988 does not knowingly collect sensitive personal information (as defined under RA 10173) beyond what is strictly required for identity verification and regulatory compliance. We do not collect racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious beliefs, health data, or sexual orientation from jl988 players.

jl988 processes your personal data on the following legal bases as recognized under the Data Privacy Act of 2012:

• Contractual Necessity: Processing required to fulfill the jl988 Player Agreement — including account creation, account management, deposit and withdrawal processing, and customer support;
• Legal Obligation: Processing required to comply with PAGCOR licensing requirements, the Anti-Money Laundering Act (RA 9160 as amended), the Data Privacy Act (RA 10173), and applicable NPC circulars;
• Legitimate Interests: Processing for fraud prevention, platform security, abuse detection, and improving jl988 services — where our legitimate interests are not overridden by your privacy rights;
• Consent: Processing for marketing communications, cookies beyond strictly necessary functionality, and any data use not covered by the above bases — where you have provided clear, informed, and freely given consent.

Where jl988 relies on consent as the legal basis for processing, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out prior to withdrawal.

jl988 uses personal data for the following specific purposes:

5.1 Account Administration

5.2 KYC and Regulatory Compliance

To verify your identity and age (21+ as required by PAGCOR), conduct enhanced due diligence where required under AMLA, screen against government-issued watchlists, report suspicious transactions to the Anti-Money Laundering Council (AMLC), and respond to regulatory enquiries from PAGCOR or other Philippine government agencies.

5.3 Financial Operations

To deliver the jl988 gaming experience — loading games, maintaining session state, recording bet and win/loss outcomes, calculating jackpot contributions, applying and tracking bonus usage, and enforcing betting limits.

5.5 Responsible Gaming

To implement deposit limits, loss limits, session time controls, and self-exclusion orders you have requested; to identify gaming behavior that may indicate potential gambling harm; and to comply with PAGCOR's Responsible Gaming program requirements.

jl988 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data. We share personal data only in the following circumstances, and only to the minimum extent necessary:

• Payment Processors: GCash (G-Xchange Inc.), PayMaya Philippines, Inc., BPI, BDO, Metrobank, and Visa/Mastercard network processors — for the sole purpose of processing your financial transactions;
• KYC and Identity Verification Providers: Licensed third-party verification services that assist jl988 with identity and age verification — subject to data processing agreements that bind them to confidentiality and RA 10173 compliance;
• Game Software Providers: JILI, PG Soft, Pragmatic Play, CQ9, Habanero, and other licensed game providers — limited to technical session data required to deliver game content. Game providers do not receive your identity or financial data;
• Regulatory Authorities: PAGCOR, the Anti-Money Laundering Council (AMLC), the National Privacy Commission (NPC), the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP), or other Philippine government agencies — where required by law, court order, or regulatory directive;
• Legal and Security Service Providers: Law firms, forensic investigators, and fraud prevention service providers — where required to protect jl988's legal rights or to investigate potential criminal activity;
• Business Transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or substantially all of jl988's assets, your data may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to equivalent privacy protections and advance notice to affected players.

jl988.org uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to operate the platform, maintain your session, and improve the user experience. The following categories of cookies are used:

• Strictly Necessary Cookies: Required for the platform to function — including session authentication, CSRF protection, load balancing, and cashier functionality. These cannot be disabled without impairing platform operation;
• Functional Cookies: Remember your preferences — such as language settings, remembered login (if you select "Remember Me"), and game lobby filters. These persist across sessions on the same device;
• Analytics Cookies: Collect anonymized data about how players use jl988 — including page views, session duration, error rates, and navigation paths. Used solely to improve jl988's platform. Applied only with your consent;
• Security Cookies: Support jl988's fraud detection and bot prevention systems — including device fingerprinting and login anomaly detection. These operate at the session level and do not store identifiable data beyond the session.

You may manage cookie preferences through your browser settings at any time. Note that disabling strictly necessary cookies will prevent you from accessing your jl988 account. jl988 does not use cross-site tracking cookies or share cookie data with advertising platforms.

jl988 retains personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by applicable Philippine law. The following retention periods apply:

At the end of the applicable retention period, personal data is securely deleted or anonymized in accordance with NPC-recommended data destruction procedures.

jl988 implements appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal data against unauthorized access, accidental loss, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These measures include:

• AES-256 encryption for data at rest in jl988's databases and document storage systems;
• TLS 1.3 encryption for all data in transit between your device and jl988's servers (indicated by the HTTPS prefix and padlock in your browser);
• Role-based access controls ensuring jl988 staff access only the data necessary for their specific job function;
• Multi-factor authentication requirements for all jl988 administrative system access;
• Regular penetration testing and vulnerability assessments by qualified security professionals;
• 24/7 intrusion detection and anomaly monitoring on jl988's server infrastructure;
• Mandatory privacy and security training for all jl988 personnel who handle personal data.

Despite these measures, no internet-based platform can guarantee absolute security. You are responsible for keeping your jl988 login credentials confidential and for notifying jl988 immediately if you suspect unauthorized access to your account.

As a data subject under the Data Privacy Act of 2012, you have the following rights with respect to your personal data held by jl988:

To exercise any of these rights, contact jl988's Data Protection Officer at the details provided in Section 15. jl988 will respond to verified requests within 30 days. jl988 may need to verify your identity before processing your request to prevent unauthorized data access.

Where jl988 is required by law (including AMLA and PAGCOR regulations) to retain certain data, your right to erasure may be limited to the extent of that legal obligation — jl988 will inform you of the specific retention requirement applicable.

jl988 is strictly an adults-only platform for players aged 21 and above, consistent with PAGCOR's age requirements for casino-style gambling in the Philippines. jl988 does not knowingly collect, store, or process personal data of individuals under 21 years of age.

Age verification is mandatory during the KYC process. Any account found to belong to a person under 21 years of age will be immediately suspended, all associated personal data will be deleted, and any funds deposited will be returned through the original payment method.

If you believe a minor has created a jl988 account, please contact support immediately at the email address provided in Section 17. jl988 takes underage gambling extremely seriously and cooperates fully with parental requests and PAGCOR investigations in such cases.

jl988 will only send you marketing communications — including promotional emails, SMS notifications about bonuses, and push notifications about new games — where you have given explicit, informed consent during registration or subsequently via your account settings.

You may withdraw your consent to receive marketing communications at any time by:

• Updating your communication preferences in your jl988 account settings (under Notifications/Marketing); or
• Following the unsubscribe link included in every jl988 marketing email; or
• Contacting jl988 customer support to request removal from all marketing lists.

Withdrawal of marketing consent does not affect jl988's ability to send you service-related communications — such as account verification, deposit confirmations, withdrawal notifications, security alerts, and mandatory responsible gaming messages — which are necessary for the administration of your account and are not marketing communications.

jl988's primary data processing operations are located within the Philippines. Where personal data is transferred to or accessible by service providers located outside the Philippines — for example, international game content delivery networks or cloud infrastructure providers with regional data centers — jl988 ensures that such transfers are governed by:

• Contractual data processing agreements that impose data protection obligations equivalent to those required by RA 10173;
• NPC-approved cross-border data transfer mechanisms where applicable; and
• Transfers only to countries or organizations that provide adequate levels of data protection as assessed in accordance with NPC guidance.

jl988 does not transfer KYC documents, government ID copies, or financial transaction records outside the Philippines except where strictly required by law or by the processing activities of PAGCOR-required compliance service providers.

jl988.org may contain references to third-party payment services (such as GCash and PayMaya) accessed through their own interfaces when you initiate a transaction. Once you navigate away from jl988.org to a third-party service, that service's own privacy policy governs the personal data you provide to them. jl988 is not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party services and recommends that you review the privacy policy of any third-party service before providing personal data.

Game content delivered within the jl988 platform by third-party providers (JILI, PG Soft, Pragmatic Play, etc.) operates within jl988's platform environment. These providers receive only the technical session data required to deliver the game — they do not receive your identity, contact, or financial data.

jl988 has appointed a Data Protection Officer (DPO) in accordance with the Data Privacy Act of 2012 and NPC Circular 16-01. The DPO is responsible for overseeing jl988's data protection compliance, handling data subject rights requests, and serving as the point of contact with the National Privacy Commission.

To contact jl988's DPO for privacy-related concerns, data access requests, or to report a potential data protection issue:

• Contact Method: Email jl988 customer support at [email protected] with the subject line "Data Privacy Request – DPO"
• Response Commitment: DPO enquiries are acknowledged within 3 business days and substantively responded to within 30 calendar days
• Escalation: If you are not satisfied with jl988's response, you may file a complaint directly with the National Privacy Commission at privacy.gov.ph

jl988 reviews and updates this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in our processing activities, applicable Philippine law, NPC guidance, or PAGCOR regulatory requirements. The current effective version is always published at jl988.org/privacy-policy, with the effective date clearly indicated at the top of the document.

For material amendments that affect how we use your personal data or that reduce your privacy rights, jl988 will provide advance notice of at least 14 days via email to your registered address before the amended policy takes effect. Continued use of jl988 after that notice period constitutes your acceptance of the revised Privacy Policy.

The NPC provides formal complaint procedures through its official channels. jl988 cooperates fully with all NPC investigations and complies with all NPC determinations and orders.
