How phcharm48 Protects You

Privacy is not an afterthought at phcharm48 — it is built into how we operate. Here is a quick overview of what we stand for when it comes to your personal information.

All data you send to phcharm48 — from login credentials to payment details — is protected by 256-bit SSL encryption. Nobody intercepts your information in transit.

Minimal Data Collection

phcharm48 only collects the personal information we genuinely need to operate your account, process payments, and meet our legal obligations. Nothing more, nothing less.

Why This Policy Matters

Your Privacy, Our Responsibility

When you sign up for phcharm48, you trust us with real personal information — your name, your contact details, your payment accounts. That trust is something we take seriously every single day.

The Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012 gives every Filipino the right to know what happens to their personal data. This Privacy Policy is phcharm48's fulfilment of that legal requirement and our promise to you as a player.

Whether you are depositing via GCash in Taguig or placing a PBA bet from Cebu, the same privacy standards apply everywhere you access phcharm48. Your data is always handled with the same level of care and protection, regardless of device or location.

If anything in this Privacy Policy changes, phcharm48 will notify you via email and post a prominent notice on the platform. Continuing to use phcharm48 after the update takes effect means you accept the revised policy.

01 Who We Are

For the purposes of this Privacy Policy, phcharm48 acts as the data controller for all personal information collected through the website at https://phcharm48.net, its associated mobile platform, and any related services.

If you have any questions or concerns about how your personal data is handled, you can reach our Data Privacy Officer directly at support@phcharm48.net. We are committed to resolving data privacy concerns promptly and transparently.

Scope: This Privacy Policy applies to all registered phcharm48 users, visitors to our website, and anyone who contacts us through any channel. By using phcharm48, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this policy.
