6 Cookie Usage
PHJOIN uses cookies to make your browsing experience smoother. Cookies are small data files saved on your device that help us remember your preferences and keep the site working the way you expect.
- Essential cookies: Login sessions and security tokens are part of this group — without them, the site simply won't function properly.
- Functional cookies: These help us remember your chosen language and your personal settings, so you don't have to re-enter them every visit.
- Analytics cookies: These let us see which sections of the site are most popular, so we can keep improving what visitors actually use.

You can manage or delete cookies anytime through your browser settings. However, if you turn off essential cookies, some features of the site may not work as intended.
7 Data storage and security measures
PHJOIN takes data protection seriously and applies industry-grade security technologies to keep your personal information safe. As a PAGCOR-licensed platform, we also follow the Philippine Data Privacy Act to ensure your data is handled properly. Here are the key layers of protection we have in place:
- 256-bit SSL/TLS encryption: All data transmissions happen over encrypted channels, keeping your information private from the moment you send it.
- Encrypted database: Stored data is kept in encrypted form, so even if someone gains access, the data remains unreadable.
- Two-factor authentication (2FA): An added layer of protection is activated whenever you log in to your account, helping confirm it's really you.
- Regular security audits: Our systems are regularly tested by independent third-party experts to verify our security posture and identify any weaknesses.
- Firewall protection: A strong firewall is in place to block unauthorized access attempts before they reach our network.
- Limited Access: At PHJOIN, access to sensitive account information is strictly limited to authorized staff members who need it to perform their duties.
Data Retention Period
PHJOIN keeps your account details on file for as long as your account remains active. Even after an account is closed, some records may be retained for up to five years when Philippine legal or regulatory obligations require it.
8 Your Rights Over Your Personal Data
As a PHJOIN member, you have meaningful rights over the personal information we hold, and we fully respect and uphold those rights.
- Right to Know: You have the right to know exactly what personal details PHJOIN has collected about you, and we are required to provide this information when you ask.

9 Protecting Minors' Information
PHJOIN is a 21+ platform. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone below 21, and our services are not offered to individuals who have not reached the required legal age.
- Age verification takes place during registration, so you may be asked to present a valid ID to confirm that you meet the 21+ requirement.
- To complete your account registration and setup, the KYC step will ask you to present a valid document that confirms your age.
- If we suspect that an account belongs to someone below 21, we will close it immediately as part of our responsible gaming commitment.
- Should personal data from a minor be collected inadvertently, it will be removed from our records without delay.
