gopub Privacy Policy – How We Protect Your Personal Data
This Privacy Policy explains how gopub collects, uses, stores, and protects your personal information when you use our platform in the Philippines. We are committed to handling your data responsibly and in full compliance with applicable data protection laws. By registering an account or using any feature of the gopub platform, you consent to the practices described in this policy. Please read this document carefully so you understand exactly what information we hold and how we use it. If you have any questions or concerns about your privacy, our support team is always available to help.
1. Information We Collect
When you register and use the gopub platform, we collect several categories of personal information to deliver our services accurately and securely. The primary category is account information, which includes your full name, date of birth, email address, username, and any government-issued identification you provide during the identity verification process. We collect this data to confirm that you are eligible to use the platform, to maintain your account, and to communicate important updates about your account or the services we offer. Providing accurate information during registration is your responsibility, and gopub reserves the right to suspend accounts where false or incomplete details are discovered.
We also collect device and browser information each time you access the platform. This includes your IP address, device type, operating system, browser version, screen resolution, and the pages or features you interact with during your session. This technical data helps us maintain platform security, detect unusual login activity, and continuously improve the performance and usability of the gopub experience. In addition to device data, we collect financial information in connection with deposits and withdrawals. Because gopub operates in the Philippines and all transactions are conducted in Philippine Peso (PHP), we may collect details related to your chosen payment method, transaction amounts, timestamps, and reference numbers, though we do not store full card or bank account numbers on our servers.
Usage data, such as the games you play, bets you place, session durations, and features you access, is also collected automatically. This behavioural data helps gopub personalise your experience, recommend relevant content, and ensure that responsible gaming tools are applied appropriately. We may also collect information you submit voluntarily, such as when you contact our support team, respond to a survey, or request a change to your account settings.
2. How We Use Your Information
gopub uses the personal information we collect strictly for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy. The primary purpose is to provide, operate, and maintain your player account and all associated services, including sportsbook betting, slot games, live casino, and bingo. Your information allows us to process deposits and withdrawals, verify your identity in accordance with anti-money laundering obligations, and deliver customer support when you need assistance. We also use your data to send transactional communications, such as deposit confirmations, withdrawal notifications, and account security alerts.
We may use your information to personalise your experience on the platform, such as displaying game recommendations based on your activity or surfacing relevant promotions that match your preferences. Where you have opted in to receive marketing communications, we may contact you via email with updates about new features, seasonal campaigns, or platform news. You may opt out of marketing messages at any time by contacting our support team at [email protected]. Your data also helps us monitor for fraud, maintain compliance with Philippine gaming regulations, and investigate any suspected breaches of our Terms and Conditions.

3. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
gopub uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to operate the platform effectively and to improve your browsing experience. Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit our site, and they allow us to remember your preferences, keep you logged in securely between sessions, and understand how different parts of the platform are used. We use strictly necessary cookies to ensure that core functions — such as account login, session management, and payment processing — work correctly. Without these essential cookies, the platform cannot function as intended.
In addition to necessary cookies, we use functional cookies that remember your settings and preferences, such as your chosen language or display options. We may also use analytics cookies that collect aggregated, anonymised data about how users navigate the site, which pages receive the most traffic, and where users encounter difficulties. This information is used solely to improve the quality and usability of the gopub platform for all Filipino players. You can manage your cookie preferences through your browser settings at any time; however, disabling certain categories of cookies may affect the functionality of parts of the platform. By continuing to use gopub after being presented with our cookie notice, you consent to the use of cookies as described in this policy.
4. Data Storage and Security
gopub takes the security of your personal data seriously and implements industry-standard technical and organisational measures to protect it against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. All data transmitted between your device and our servers is encrypted using Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology, ensuring that sensitive information such as login credentials and payment details cannot be intercepted in transit. Our servers are housed in secure facilities with restricted physical access, and access to personal data within the gopub organisation is limited strictly to personnel who require it to perform their job functions.
Your personal data is retained for as long as your account remains active and for a reasonable period thereafter as required by applicable Philippine law, including regulations governing financial record-keeping and anti-money laundering compliance. When data is no longer required, it is securely deleted or anonymised in accordance with our internal data retention schedule. While we work hard to protect your information, no system is entirely immune to security risks, and we encourage you to play your part by using a strong and unique password for your gopub account and logging out from shared devices after each session. If you believe your account has been compromised, please contact our support team immediately at [email protected] so that we can take prompt protective action.
5. Sharing Data with Third Parties
gopub does not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to any third party for commercial purposes. However, in order to deliver our services, we may share certain data with trusted third-party service providers who assist us with specific operational functions. These include payment processors who facilitate PHP deposits and withdrawals, identity verification providers who help us confirm that players meet the age and eligibility requirements, and technology partners who support platform hosting, security monitoring, and analytics. All third-party service providers are bound by contractual obligations to handle your data securely and only for the specific purpose for which it was shared.
We may also be required to disclose personal information to regulatory authorities, law enforcement agencies, or government bodies in the Philippines if we receive a lawful request or are legally obligated to do so. In such cases, we will only disclose the minimum amount of information necessary to comply with the legal requirement. We will not share your data with any entity for marketing or advertising purposes without your explicit prior consent. If we enter into a business transaction such as a merger or acquisition, your personal data may be transferred to the relevant successor entity, provided that it agrees to handle your information in a manner consistent with this Privacy Policy.
6. Your Rights as a Data Subject
As a user of the gopub platform based in the Philippines, you have specific rights regarding your personal data under applicable data protection legislation. You have the right to access the personal information we hold about you at any time by submitting a written request to our support team at [email protected]. We will respond to verified access requests within a reasonable timeframe and provide a clear summary of the data we hold and how it is being used. You also have the right to request the correction of any inaccurate or incomplete information in your account, and we will update our records promptly upon verification of the change.
Where your personal data is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, or where you withdraw consent and there is no overriding legal basis for continued processing, you have the right to request the deletion of your data. Requests for deletion will be assessed on a case-by-case basis in accordance with our legal retention obligations. You also have the right to object to the processing of your data for direct marketing purposes, which you may exercise at any time without providing a reason. To exercise any of your data rights, please contact our team at [email protected] with the subject line "Data Rights Request" and include your registered account details so we can verify your identity before processing your request. gopub is committed to responding to all rights requests in good faith and within the timelines required by law.
7. Minor Protection and Policy Updates
The gopub platform is strictly intended for adults aged 18 years and above, and we do not knowingly collect or process personal information from individuals below the minimum age. If we become aware that a minor has registered an account or provided personal data without the appropriate parental or guardian consent, we will promptly close the account and delete all associated personal information from our records. Parents and guardians who believe that a minor in their care has accessed or registered on the gopub platform are strongly encouraged to contact us immediately at [email protected] so that we can take appropriate action without delay. We take our responsibility to protect younger users seriously and actively incorporate age verification into our registration and account review processes.
This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time to reflect changes in our data practices, legal obligations, or the services we offer. When we make a material change to this policy, we will publish the updated version on this page and indicate the effective date at the top of the document. We encourage all gopub players in the Philippines to review this policy periodically to stay informed about how their data is being handled. Your continued use of the platform following the publication of an updated policy constitutes your acceptance of the revised terms.
