Under the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012, and as a data subject of bnw55, you have the following rights with respect to your personal data. To exercise any of these rights, please contact bnw55's Data Protection Officer (see Section 14).

bnw55 will respond to all valid data subject requests within fifteen (15) calendar days of receipt, in accordance with NPC guidelines. Complex requests may require up to 30 days; you will be informed of any extension within the initial 15-day period.

The bnw55 Platform is strictly intended for individuals aged twenty-one (21) years and above, in compliance with PAGCOR's iGaming licensing requirements. bnw55 does not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under the age of 21.

Age verification is a mandatory step in the registration process. Any account determined to belong to an individual under the age of 21 will be immediately closed, all associated personal data will be deleted (subject to any mandatory regulatory retention requirements), and any funds associated with the account will be processed in accordance with bnw55's Terms and Conditions.

If you are a parent or guardian and believe that a person under 21 has accessed or registered on bnw55, please contact our Data Protection Officer immediately at the contact details in Section 14. bnw55 will investigate and take appropriate action promptly.

Some of the third-party service providers used by bnw55 — including game software providers such as Pragmatic Play and Evolution Gaming, and cloud infrastructure providers — may process personal data in jurisdictions outside the Republic of the Philippines.

Where personal data is transferred outside the Philippines, bnw55 ensures that such transfers are subject to appropriate safeguards, including contractual data processing agreements requiring the recipient to apply data protection standards consistent with the Philippine Data Privacy Act. bnw55 will not transfer personal data to jurisdictions that do not provide adequate protection for personal data without implementing appropriate safeguards.

For inquiries regarding the specific jurisdictions to which your data may be transferred and the safeguards applied, please contact our Data Protection Officer at the details provided in Section 14.
