felbit Privacy Policy — Your Data, Protected
At felbit, your personal information is handled with the highest level of care and transparency. This Privacy Policy explains exactly what data we collect, why we collect it, how we use it, and the rights you hold as a Filipino player under the Data Privacy Act of 2012. We built this policy to be clear — no legal jargon where plain English works better.
felbit fully complies with Republic Act No. 10173, the Data Privacy Act of 2012, and all implementing rules issued by the National Privacy Commission of the Philippines.
All personal data stored on felbit servers is protected with AES-256 encryption at rest and TLS 1.3 encryption in transit, ensuring your information stays private and secure at all times.
As a Filipino data subject, you have the right to access, correct, delete, and port your personal data. felbit makes exercising these rights simple through our support team and account settings.
felbit does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to third-party marketers. Your information is used solely for platform operations, compliance, and improving your gaming experience.
Primary data processing occurs within Philippine-jurisdiction infrastructure. Any cross-border data transfers are conducted under strict contractual safeguards consistent with NPC guidelines.
In the unlikely event of a personal data breach, felbit is committed to notifying affected players and the National Privacy Commission within seventy-two (72) hours as required by law.
How felbit Protects Your Personal Data
This Privacy Policy ("Policy") describes how felbit ("we", "us", "our", "the Company") collects, processes, stores, shares, and protects the personal information of players and visitors ("you", "your", "Data Subject") who use the felbit online casino and sports betting platform accessible at felbit.net.
Introduction & Scope
1.1 This Policy applies to all personal data collected and processed by felbit in connection with the provision of its online gaming, sports betting, promotions, customer support, and payment processing services. It covers data collected through the felbit website, mobile-optimized platform, live chat system, and any other digital channel operated by felbit.
1.2 This Policy is published in compliance with the Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act No. 10173), its Implementing Rules and Regulations, and the applicable issuances of the National Privacy Commission (NPC) of the Philippines. Where PAGCOR's regulatory requirements impose additional data obligations, those requirements are also incorporated into felbit's data handling practices.
1.3 By registering an account on felbit, making a deposit, or otherwise using our services, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy and consent to the collection and processing of your personal data as described herein. If you do not agree with this Policy, you must discontinue use of the felbit platform.
1.4 This Policy should be read together with felbit's Terms & Conditions and Responsible Gaming Policy, which together form the complete framework governing your use of the felbit platform.
Data Controller Identity
2.1 For the purposes of the Data Privacy Act of 2012 and this Policy, felbit is the Personal Information Controller (PIC) responsible for the personal data of all registered players and platform visitors.

2.3 felbit has appointed a Data Protection Officer (DPO) who is responsible for overseeing data protection strategy and implementation, ensuring compliance with the Data Privacy Act, serving as the primary point of contact for all data privacy inquiries, and liaising with the National Privacy Commission when required. Contact details for the felbit DPO are provided in Section 15 of this Policy.

How We Collect Your Data
4.1 Directly from You. The majority of personal data felbit holds is provided directly by you during:
- Account registration — when you provide your name, date of birth, contact details, and create your login credentials;
- KYC verification — when you submit government-issued identification and proof of address documents;
- Payment transactions — when you link a GCash, Maya, bank account, or other payment method to your felbit account;
- Customer support interactions — when you contact our team via live chat or email;
- Promotional participation — when you opt in to bonus offers, tournaments, or marketing communications;
- Responsible gaming requests — when you set deposit limits, request cooling-off periods, or apply for self-exclusion.
4.2 Automatically. When you access and use the felbit platform, we automatically collect certain technical and behavioral data through:
- Server logs that record IP addresses, access times, pages visited, and actions taken;
- Cookies and similar tracking technologies (see Section 11 for full details);
- Game servers that record all bets, outcomes, and session data in real time;
- Security and fraud detection systems that monitor login patterns and transaction behavior.
4.3 From Third Parties. In limited circumstances, felbit may receive personal data about you from third parties, including:
- Identity verification service providers engaged to perform document authentication and facial recognition checks;
- Payment processors who provide transaction confirmation and account ownership data;
- PAGCOR and law enforcement agencies pursuant to regulatory obligations;
- Publicly available sources such as sanctions lists and politically exposed persons (PEP) databases.
How We Use Your Personal Data
5.1 felbit processes your personal data only for specific, legitimate purposes. The primary purposes for which we use your data are as follows:
- Account creation and management: To register your account, authenticate your identity at login, and maintain accurate account records;
- KYC and AML compliance: To verify your identity, age, and source of funds as required by PAGCOR regulations and the Anti-Money Laundering Act (Republic Act No. 9160, as amended);
- Payment processing: To process deposits and withdrawals through GCash, Maya, and other accepted payment channels securely and accurately;
- Game delivery: To provide access to felbit's full catalogue of casino games, bingo, slots, dice, Dragon Hatch, and sports betting markets;
- Responsible gaming: To monitor gaming behavior, enforce player-requested limits, identify at-risk players, and implement self-exclusion requests;
- Fraud and security: To detect unauthorized access, money laundering, bonus abuse, and other prohibited activities on the platform;
- Customer support: To respond to your inquiries, resolve disputes, and deliver quality service in both English and Tagalog;
- Legal and regulatory compliance: To meet our obligations under Philippine law, respond to lawful requests from PAGCOR, the AMLC, and the NPC, and defend against legal claims;
- Marketing communications: To send you information about promotions, new games, and platform updates — but only where you have given your explicit consent, which you may withdraw at any time.
5.2 felbit will not use your personal data for any purpose materially different from those listed above without first obtaining your consent or establishing a separate legitimate legal basis for doing so.
Legal Basis for Processing
6.1 Under the Data Privacy Act of 2012, felbit relies on the following legal bases for processing your personal data:
- Consent: Where you have freely given, specific, informed, and unambiguous consent to the processing of your personal data — primarily for marketing communications and optional profiling features;
- Contractual necessity: Where processing is necessary for the performance of our contract with you (i.e., the Terms & Conditions) — including account management, game delivery, and payment processing;
- Legal obligation: Where processing is required to comply with Philippine laws and regulations, including the Data Privacy Act, Anti-Money Laundering Act, PAGCOR regulations, and National Privacy Commission directives;
- Legitimate interests: Where processing is necessary for felbit's legitimate interests in operating a secure, fair, and sustainable gaming platform — including fraud detection, platform security, and service improvement — provided that such interests are not overridden by your fundamental rights and freedoms.
6.2 Where felbit relies on your consent as the legal basis for processing, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time without prejudice to processing that has already taken place on the basis of consent before its withdrawal. To withdraw consent for marketing communications, use the unsubscribe link in any marketing email or contact our support team via live chat.
Data Sharing & Disclosure
7.1 felbit shares your personal data only in the following limited and necessary circumstances:
- Game providers: Licensed third-party game studios and live dealer providers receive the minimum data necessary to authenticate your game session and record outcomes for integrity purposes. These providers are bound by strict data processing agreements;
- Payment processors: GCash, Maya, BPI, BDO, Metrobank, and other payment partners receive your payment account details and transaction data solely for the purpose of executing your deposits and withdrawals;
- Identity verification providers: Third-party KYC service providers receive your identification documents and biometric data solely for the purpose of completing your identity verification;
- Regulatory authorities: PAGCOR, the Anti-Money Laundering Council (AMLC), the National Privacy Commission, and other competent Philippine government agencies receive data where legally required or upon lawful request;
- Law enforcement: Philippine law enforcement agencies may receive data pursuant to a lawful court order, warrant, or mandatory disclosure obligation;
- Responsible gaming organizations: Where a player has self-excluded, their exclusion status may be shared with PAGCOR's responsible gaming registry to prevent re-registration on other regulated platforms;
- Professional advisors: Legal counsel, auditors, and compliance consultants engaged by felbit may access personal data on a need-to-know basis under strict confidentiality obligations.
7.2 All third parties to whom felbit discloses personal data are required to process that data strictly in accordance with felbit's instructions, applicable Philippine law, and their own contractual data protection obligations. felbit conducts due diligence on all data processors before engagement and reviews these arrangements periodically.
Data Retention
8.1 felbit retains personal data only for as long as is necessary to fulfill the purpose for which it was collected, or as required by applicable Philippine law and regulation. The following retention periods apply:
| Data Category | Retention Period | Basis |
|---|---|---|
| KYC / Identity documents | 5 years from account closure | AMLA compliance (RA 9160) |
| Transaction records | 5 years from transaction date | AMLA compliance / PAGCOR regulations |
| Gaming history & logs | 3 years from account closure | PAGCOR regulatory requirements |
| Customer support records | 2 years from resolution date | Legal claims protection |
| Marketing preferences | Until consent withdrawn or account closed | Consent |
| Self-exclusion records | Indefinite (responsible gaming obligations) | PAGCOR responsible gaming framework |
| Technical / server logs | 12 months from creation | Security and fraud detection |
8.2 Upon expiry of the applicable retention period, felbit will securely delete or anonymize personal data in a manner that makes re-identification impossible, unless an ongoing legal obligation requires continued retention.
8. 3 Where felbit is involved in ongoing legal proceedings, regulatory investigations, or unresolved disputes, relevant personal data will be retained until those matters are fully concluded, regardless of the standard retention period that would otherwise apply.
Security Measures
9.1 felbit implements a comprehensive, multi-layered information security programme to protect your personal data against unauthorized access, accidental loss, destruction, alteration, and unlawful disclosure. Our technical and organizational security measures include:
- Encryption: AES-256 encryption for data at rest and TLS 1.3 for all data in transit between your device and felbit servers;
- Access controls: Role-based access control (RBAC) ensures that only authorized felbit personnel with a legitimate need can access personal data, and all access is logged and audited;
- Multi-factor authentication: felbit staff accessing internal systems with personal data are required to use multi-factor authentication on all access points;
- Network security: Firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and Web Application Firewalls (WAF) protect the felbit platform from external threats;
- Penetration testing: Regular third-party security assessments and penetration tests are conducted to identify and remediate vulnerabilities;
- Secure development: felbit follows secure software development lifecycle (SSDLC) practices, including code reviews and security testing before any new feature is deployed to the live platform;
- Staff training: All felbit personnel with access to personal data receive mandatory data privacy and information security training at onboarding and annually thereafter.
9.2 While felbit takes all reasonable steps to protect your data, no information security system is completely impenetrable. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your own felbit account credentials and for ensuring that you log out after each session, particularly when accessing the platform from a shared or public device.
Your Rights as a Data Subject

Cross-Border Data Transfers
13.1 felbit's primary data processing infrastructure is located within Philippine-jurisdiction data centers. However, certain service providers engaged by felbit — including international game studios and identity verification platforms — may be located in, or process data in, jurisdictions outside the Philippines.
13.2 Where personal data is transferred outside the Philippines, felbit ensures that such transfers are protected by appropriate safeguards, including:
- Standard contractual clauses approved by the National Privacy Commission or equivalent data protection authority of the receiving country;
- Adequacy determinations confirming that the receiving country provides a level of data protection equivalent to that of the Philippines;
- Binding corporate rules where data is transferred to entities within the same corporate group as a felbit service provider;
- Explicit consent from the data subject where the above safeguards are not available and the transfer is in the data subject's vital interest.
13.3 felbit maintains a register of all cross-border data transfers and the safeguards applied to each. This information is available to the National Privacy Commission upon request. Players who wish to obtain more information about specific cross-border transfers affecting their personal data may contact the felbit DPO as described in Section 15.
