Introduction
AP777 Casino ("AP777," "we," "us," or "our") operates the online gaming platform accessible at https://ap777.casino and through the AP777 mobile application (collectively, the "Platform").

Data Retention
AP777 retains your personal data only for as long as is necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by applicable law and regulation. The following general retention periods apply:

When personal data is no longer required, AP777 will securely delete or anonymize it in accordance with industry best practices and applicable data protection standards.
Data Security
AP777 implements a comprehensive set of technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal data against unauthorized access, accidental loss, destruction, alteration, or disclosure. These measures include:
- 256-bit SSL/TLS encryption for all data transmitted between your device and the AP777 Platform — the same standard used by major Philippine banks such as BPI and BDO.
- Encryption of sensitive data at rest, including identity documents and financial information.
- Role-based access controls ensuring that only authorized AP777 personnel with a legitimate need can access personal data.
- Regular security audits, vulnerability assessments, and penetration testing conducted by independent cybersecurity specialists.
- Multi-factor authentication (MFA) for internal systems and administrative access.
- Continuous monitoring of the Platform for suspicious activity, unauthorized access attempts, and data anomalies.
- Staff training on data protection obligations and secure data handling practices.
While AP777 takes all reasonable steps to protect your personal data, no online platform can guarantee absolute security. In the event of a personal data breach that is likely to result in a risk to your rights and freedoms, AP777 will notify the National Privacy Commission (NPC) and affected players in accordance with the requirements of the Data Privacy Act of 2012.
You play an important role in keeping your AP777 account secure. Use a strong, unique password, never share your login credentials with anyone, and contact AP777 support immediately if you suspect unauthorized access to your account.

Children's Privacy
The AP777 Platform is strictly intended for adults aged twenty-one (21) years and above, in accordance with PAGCOR regulations governing online casino gaming in the Philippines. AP777 does not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under the age of 21.
If AP777 becomes aware that personal data has been collected from a person under the age of 21, we will take immediate steps to delete that data and close the associated account. If you are a parent or guardian and believe that your child has registered on the AP777 Platform, please contact our support team immediately so that we can take appropriate action.
AP777 enforces strict age verification at registration and may request documentary proof of age at any time. Any account found to belong to a person under 21 years of age will be immediately closed and all associated data handled in accordance with applicable law.
International Data Transfers
AP777 primarily processes and stores personal data within the Philippines. In certain circumstances, personal data may be transferred to, or accessed by, service providers located outside the Philippines — for example, cloud infrastructure providers or cybersecurity specialists operating in other jurisdictions.
Where such transfers occur, AP777 ensures that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your personal data to a standard equivalent to that required under the Data Privacy Act of 2012. These safeguards may include contractual clauses approved by the National Privacy Commission, binding corporate rules, or transfers to jurisdictions recognized as providing an adequate level of data protection.
AP777 will not transfer your personal data to any jurisdiction that does not provide adequate protections without your explicit consent or a lawful basis for doing so.
Policy Updates
AP777 may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our data processing practices, applicable law, or regulatory requirements. When material changes are made, AP777 will notify registered players via the email address on file and/or through a prominent notice on the Platform prior to the changes taking effect.
The "Last Updated" date at the top of this Policy indicates when the most recent revision was made. We encourage you to review this Policy periodically to stay informed about how AP777 protects your personal data. Your continued use of the AP777 Platform following the publication of an updated Policy constitutes your acceptance of the revised terms.
