1. Introduction

This Privacy Policy applies to all users of the s888 platform at s888.st, including visitors who browse without an account and registered players who actively use the service. It describes how s888 collects, stores, uses, and protects personal information in the course of providing online gaming and sports betting services to players in the Philippines.

By registering an account on s888 or continuing to use the platform, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with how we handle personal data, please do not register or continue using the platform.

s888 may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with a revised date. We encourage you to check back periodically. Continued use of the platform after any update constitutes your acceptance of the revised policy.

2. Information We Collect

The personal information s888 collects falls into the following categories:

Category	Examples	When Collected
Registration Data	Full name, date of birth, email address, mobile number	At account registration
Identity Verification	Government-issued ID (e.g. PhilSys, driver's licence, passport), selfie for liveness check	During KYC process
Financial Data	Bank account name, e-wallet account name, transaction history in PHP	On deposit or withdrawal
Device & Usage Data	IP address, browser type, device model, pages visited, session duration	Automatically during platform use

We do not intentionally collect sensitive personal data beyond what is required for identity verification. If you believe we hold data about you that is inaccurate or unnecessary, you may contact support to request a review.

3. How We Use Your Information

s888 uses the personal information we collect for the following purposes:

• Account management: Creating and maintaining your player account, processing logins, and managing account security including OTP authentication.
• Transaction processing: Handling PHP deposits and withdrawals through Philippine bank transfers and local e-wallets such as GCash and Maya.
• Identity verification: Fulfilling KYC obligations to confirm player identity before processing withdrawal requests and to prevent underage gaming.
• Fraud prevention and security: Monitoring account activity for unusual patterns, investigating suspected fraud, and protecting the integrity of the platform.
• Customer support: Responding to your queries, complaints, and requests through chat or email.
• Platform improvement: Analysing aggregated usage data to understand how players use s888 and where we can improve the experience.
• Communications: Sending account-related notifications such as transaction confirmations, security alerts, and updates to our terms or this policy.

s888 does not use your personal data for automated decision-making that produces legal or similarly significant effects on you without human review.

4. Legal Basis for Processing

s888 processes your personal data on the following grounds:

• Contract performance: Processing is necessary to deliver the gaming and betting services you registered for, including account management and transaction handling.
• Legal obligation: Certain data processing — particularly KYC identity verification — is carried out to comply with applicable legal and regulatory requirements.
• Legitimate interests: We process device and usage data to detect fraud, maintain platform security, and improve our services, provided these interests are not overridden by your rights.
• Consent: Where we send you promotional communications or use non-essential cookies, we do so based on your consent, which you may withdraw at any time.

5. Cookies and Tracking

s888 uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you access the platform. Cookies are small text files stored on your device that help the platform function properly and allow us to understand how it is being used.

The types of cookies s888 uses include:

• Essential cookies: Required for the platform to function. These keep you logged in during your session and maintain your account state. Disabling these will prevent the platform from working correctly.
• Functional cookies: Remember your preferences such as language settings and display options so you do not have to set them again on each visit.
• Analytics cookies: Help us understand which pages are visited most, how long players stay on each section, and where issues may occur. This data is aggregated and does not identify you personally.

Cookies do not store your payment details, government ID, or account password. You can manage cookie settings through your browser. Note that disabling essential cookies will affect your ability to use the platform.

6. Data Sharing and Third Parties

s888 does not sell your personal data. We share data only in the following limited circumstances:

• Payment processors: To facilitate PHP deposits and withdrawals, transaction details are shared with the relevant Philippine bank or e-wallet provider. These parties handle your data under their own privacy policies and security standards.
• Identity verification services: KYC document verification may be assisted by third-party identity verification providers. These providers are bound by strict confidentiality obligations and may only use your data for the verification purpose.
• IT and security providers: Technical service providers who support platform infrastructure, hosting, and cybersecurity may access data as part of their service delivery. They are contractually required to protect it.
• Legal and regulatory authorities: s888 may disclose personal data when required by law, court order, or a request from a competent authority. We will notify you where legally permitted to do so.

Any third party that receives personal data from s888 is required to maintain appropriate security measures and use the data only for the specified purpose.

7. Data Retention

s888 retains personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this policy, or as required by applicable law.

• Active account data is retained for the duration of your account and for a defined period after account closure.
• Transaction records, including PHP deposit and withdrawal history, are retained for a minimum period as required for financial record-keeping purposes.
• KYC documents are retained in line with identity verification regulatory requirements.
• Support correspondence is retained for a reasonable period to assist with follow-up queries and dispute resolution.

Once data is no longer required and retention obligations have been met, s888 will securely delete or anonymise it.

8. Data Security

s888 takes the security of your personal data seriously. We implement a combination of technical and organisational measures to protect against unauthorised access, loss, alteration, or disclosure. These include:

• SSL/TLS encryption on all data transmission between your device and our servers.
• Secure, access-controlled storage for KYC documents and financial records.
• OTP-based authentication for account login and sensitive actions.
• Regular security assessments and monitoring of platform infrastructure.
• Strict internal access controls limiting data access to personnel with a genuine operational need.

While s888 takes every reasonable precaution, no online platform can guarantee absolute security. You also play a role in keeping your account safe — never share your password, OTP, or account credentials with anyone. If you suspect your account has been accessed without your permission, contact support immediately.

9. Your Rights

As a registered player on s888, you have the following rights regarding your personal data:

• Right to access: You may request a copy of the personal data s888 holds about you.
• Right to correction: If any of your personal data is inaccurate or incomplete, you may request that it be corrected.
• Right to erasure: In certain circumstances, you may request that your personal data be deleted. Note that some data may need to be retained for legal or regulatory reasons even after account closure.
• Right to restrict processing: You may ask us to limit how we use your data in certain situations while a dispute is being resolved.
• Right to withdraw consent: Where processing is based on your consent — such as receiving promotional communications — you may withdraw that consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of prior processing.

To exercise any of these rights, contact the s888 support team. We will respond as promptly as possible. Identity verification may be required before we action your request to ensure we are speaking with the account holder.

10. Children and Minors

s888 is strictly for players aged 21 and above. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone below the legal gaming age. Age verification is part of our registration and KYC process. If we become aware that a minor has registered on the platform, the account will be closed immediately and any associated data reviewed in line with our obligations.

If you believe a minor has accessed or registered on s888, please contact support immediately.

11. Changes to This Policy

s888 may revise this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in how we operate, changes in applicable law, or improvements to our data practices. When we make material changes, we will update the date at the top of this page. We may also notify registered players via email or an in-platform notice for significant changes.

Your continued use of s888 after any update to this policy constitutes your acceptance of the revised terms. If you do not agree with the updated policy, you should stop using the platform and contact support to close your account.
