Privacy Policy
At richph, we take the privacy of our Filipino players seriously. This Privacy Policy explains exactly what personal data we collect when you use our online casino and betting platform, why we collect it, how it is used and protected, and what rights you have over your own information.
How richph Protects Your Privacy
These six principles underpin how richph handles every Filipino player's personal data — from the moment of registration through every transaction and gaming session.
256-Bit SSL Encryption
Every connection between your device and richph is secured with 256-bit SSL encryption — the same standard used by Philippine banks like BPI and BDO. Your login credentials, financial data, and personal information are never transmitted in plain text.
Your Data Stays Yours
richph does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to third parties for their own commercial marketing purposes. Your information is used exclusively to deliver, secure, and improve the richph gaming experience for you as a Filipino player.
Data Privacy Act Compliance
richph operates in compliance with the Republic Act No. 10173, the Data Privacy Act of 2012, and its implementing rules and regulations, administered by the National Privacy Commission (NPC) of the Philippines.
Minimal Data Collection
richph collects only the personal data that is genuinely necessary for account management, identity verification, financial processing, and regulatory compliance. We do not collect data beyond what is required to deliver our services safely and lawfully.
Your Rights, Respected
Under Philippine law, you have the right to access, correct, erase, and object to the processing of your personal data held by richph. You may exercise any of these rights at any time by contacting our support team, and richph will respond within the timeframes required by the Data Privacy Act.
Defined Retention Periods
richph retains your personal data only for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected, or as required by applicable Philippine law including anti-money laundering regulations. Data that is no longer required is securely deleted or anonymised.

This Privacy Policy ("Policy") is issued by richph ("richph," "we," "us," "our") and applies to all personal data processed in connection with your access to and use of the richph online gaming platform accessible at richph.cam ("Platform"), including all casino games, sports betting, bingo rooms, and account management services offered therein.

In such cases, only the information strictly necessary for identity verification is extracted and retained.

Cookies & Tracking Technologies
richph uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on the Platform to ensure its proper functioning, enhance your player experience, and gather analytics data that helps us improve our services.
- Strictly Necessary Cookies: Essential for the Platform to function. These include session cookies that maintain your logged-in state, security tokens, and load balancing cookies. These cannot be disabled without affecting the basic operation of the Platform.
- Functional Cookies: Used to remember your preferences, such as your language setting and game display preferences, to personalise your richph experience across sessions.
- Analytics Cookies: Used to collect anonymised data on how players interact with the richph Platform, including pages visited, features used, and session duration. This data helps richph identify areas for improvement and optimise Platform performance.
- Security Cookies: Used to support fraud detection and account security monitoring, including device fingerprinting used to identify suspicious login activity from unrecognised devices or locations.
You may manage cookie preferences through your browser settings. Please note that disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of the richph Platform, including your ability to maintain an authenticated session. richph does not use third-party advertising cookies or track your browsing activity on websites other than richph.cam.
Security Measures
richph implements a multi-layered security framework designed to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, destruction, and accidental loss. Our security measures include, but are not limited to:
- 256-bit SSL/TLS encryption on all data transmissions between your device and richph servers.
- Encrypted storage of sensitive personal data including passwords (hashed), financial data, and identity documents.
- Multi-factor authentication options for account login, including SMS OTP to your registered Philippine mobile number.
- Role-based access controls limiting richph staff access to personal data to those with a genuine operational need.
- Automated threat detection systems monitoring for anomalous login patterns, failed authentication attempts, and suspicious transaction activity.
- Regular security assessments and penetration testing conducted by independent cybersecurity specialists.
- Data breach response procedures aligned with the NPC's Personal Data Breach Management guidelines, including mandatory notification timelines.
While richph implements robust security measures, no system can guarantee absolute security. You also have a role in protecting your own data — including keeping your richph login credentials confidential, enabling two-factor authentication, and logging out of your Account when using shared or public devices.
Data Retention
richph retains your personal data for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected, or as required by applicable Philippine law. The following general retention periods apply:
- Account and Identity Data: Retained for the duration of your active Account and for a minimum of five (5) years following account closure, in compliance with AML record-keeping requirements under Philippine law.
- Financial Transaction Records: Retained for a minimum of five (5) years from the date of the transaction, as required under the Anti-Money Laundering Act and Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas regulations.
- Customer Support Records: Retained for three (3) years from the date of the last interaction, or longer where a dispute or regulatory matter is unresolved.
- Technical and Usage Data: Aggregated analytics data may be retained indefinitely in anonymised form. Identifiable technical data (such as IP logs) is retained for up to twelve (12) months for security purposes.
- Marketing Consent Records: Retained for the duration of the consent and for three (3) years thereafter as evidence of the consent given.
At the end of applicable retention periods, richph will securely delete or anonymise personal data so that it can no longer be linked to an identifiable individual.

Minors & Age Restriction
The richph Platform is strictly intended for use by individuals who are at least 21 years of age. richph does not knowingly collect personal data from persons under the age of 21. The collection of personal data from minors is categorically prohibited under richph's policies and constitutes a serious violation of applicable Philippine law governing both data protection and online gaming.
richph enforces mandatory KYC age verification for all registered accounts. Any Account found to be operated by an individual under 21 years of age will be immediately closed, all personal data associated with that Account will be deleted or anonymised to the extent permitted by law, and any funds held in the Account will be handled in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
If you are a parent or guardian and believe that your child under 21 has registered on richph and provided personal data without your knowledge, please contact richph's support team immediately using the contact details in Section 15. richph will investigate and take appropriate action, including account closure and data deletion, as promptly as possible.
Cross-Border Data Transfers
Certain third-party service providers engaged by richph — including game providers such as Evolution Gaming and Playtech — may process personal data in jurisdictions outside the Philippines. Where such cross-border transfers occur, richph ensures that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your personal data in accordance with the requirements of the Data Privacy Act of 2012 and NPC regulations on cross-border data transfers.
Safeguards employed by richph for cross-border transfers include data processing agreements incorporating standard contractual clauses, contractual requirements for the recipient to implement equivalent data protection standards, and transfer impact assessments where required. richph will not transfer your personal data to jurisdictions that do not provide an adequate level of personal data protection without implementing appropriate compensating measures.
