phdrwam Privacy Policy
At phdrwam, your personal data is handled with the same care we give to your gaming experience. This Privacy Policy explains exactly what information we collect, why we collect it, how it is used, and the rights you hold under Philippine law.
Six Pillars of phdrwam Data Protection
phdrwam is committed to full compliance with the Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act No. 10173). Here is a plain-language summary of the six core principles that shape how we handle your personal information.
Minimal Data Collection
phdrwam collects only the personal information that is strictly necessary to verify your identity, process your transactions, and deliver a safe, personalized gaming experience. We do not collect data we do not need.
256-Bit SSL Encryption
All data transmitted between your device and phdrwam's servers is protected using industry-standard 256-bit SSL/TLS encryption. Your payment details, login credentials, and personal records are never transmitted in plain text.
Your Rights Under RA 10173
As a Filipino data subject, you have the right to access, correct, delete, and object to the processing of your personal data. phdrwam has a dedicated data privacy process to handle all such requests promptly and fairly.
Lawful Basis & PAGCOR Compliance
Every instance of personal data processing at phdrwam has a clearly identified lawful basis — whether contractual necessity, legal obligation under PAGCOR and AMLA requirements, or your explicit consent at the point of collection.
No Unauthorized Data Sharing
phdrwam does not sell your personal data to third parties. Data is shared only with regulated service providers who are contractually bound to protect it, or with government authorities where required by Philippine law.
Data Retention & Deletion
phdrwam retains personal data only for as long as required to fulfill the purpose for which it was collected, or as mandated by Philippine regulatory requirements. You may request deletion of your data subject to applicable legal retention obligations.
1. Introduction
phdrwam ("we," "us," or "our") operates the online casino and sports betting platform accessible at https://phdrwam.net. This Privacy Policy describes how phdrwam collects, uses, stores, shares, and protects the personal information of all individuals ("you," "your," or "Player") who access or use our platform, whether through a desktop browser, mobile browser, or any other interface.
This Policy is issued in compliance with the Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act No. 10173) and its Implementing Rules and Regulations (IRR), as enforced by the National Privacy Commission (NPC) of the Philippines. It is also consistent with the data handling standards expected of PAGCOR-regulated online gaming operators.
This Privacy Policy should be read in conjunction with phdrwam's Terms & Conditions and Responsible Gaming Policy, both of which are incorporated by reference.
2. Data Controller
For the purposes of the Data Privacy Act of 2012, phdrwam is the Personal Information Controller (PIC) in respect of all personal data processed through the phdrwam platform. As a PIC, phdrwam determines the purpose and means of processing your personal information and is responsible for ensuring that all processing activities comply with RA 10173.
phdrwam has appointed a Data Protection Officer (DPO) in accordance with the requirements of the NPC. The DPO is responsible for overseeing data protection strategy and implementation, and serves as the primary point of contact for all data privacy-related inquiries, complaints, and rights requests from Filipino data subjects. Contact details for the DPO are provided in Section 14 of this Policy.
Where phdrwam engages third-party service providers (such as payment processors, game software providers, or fraud detection services) to process personal data on its behalf, those parties act as Personal Information Processors (PIPs) and are bound by contractual data processing agreements that require them to implement appropriate technical and organizational security measures.

9. Data Retention
phdrwam retains personal data only for as long as is necessary to fulfill the purpose for which it was collected, or as required by Philippine law and regulatory obligations. The following retention periods apply:

10. Your Data Privacy Rights
Under the Data Privacy Act of 2012, you — as a Filipino data subject — have the following rights in relation to your personal data held by phdrwam:
To exercise any of the above rights, submit a written request to phdrwam's Data Protection Officer at [email protected] with the subject line "Data Privacy Rights Request." phdrwam will respond within fifteen (15) business days. We may require identity verification before processing your request.
11. Children's Privacy and the 21+ Requirement
The phdrwam platform is strictly for individuals aged 21 years and above, in compliance with Philippine gaming regulations enforced by PAGCOR. phdrwam does not knowingly collect personal data from individuals below the age of 21.
All new Accounts are subject to age verification as part of the KYC process. Where phdrwam discovers that an Account has been created by a person below the age of 21, that Account will be immediately suspended, all real-money balances will be returned (less any bonus amounts), and all personal data associated with that Account will be deleted to the extent permitted by applicable law.
If you believe that a person below the age of 21 has registered an Account on the phdrwam platform, please notify us immediately at [email protected].
12. Cross-Border Data Transfers
The phdrwam platform is operated primarily for the benefit of Filipino players, and personal data is stored on servers located within Southeast Asia. However, certain third-party service providers — including game software providers and cybersecurity vendors — may process data in jurisdictions outside the Philippines.
Where personal data is transferred to a country or territory that does not provide an equivalent level of data protection to the Philippines, phdrwam ensures that appropriate safeguards are in place, including:
- Standard contractual clauses approved by the NPC or equivalent regulatory authority;
- Data processing agreements that impose equivalent data protection obligations on the recipient;
- Transfer only to countries recognized by the NPC as providing adequate data protection.
You may request further information about cross-border transfer safeguards by contacting phdrwam's Data Protection Officer.

- Notify registered Players via the email address on file at least seven (7) calendar days before the changes take effect, where those changes materially affect how we handle your personal data;
