tap646 Privacy Policy – How We Protect Your Data

1. Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how tap646 ("we", "us", or "our"), operating through the website at tap646.best, collects, uses, stores, and protects the personal information of players and visitors based in the Philippines. It is written to be consistent with the Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act No. 10173) and its implementing rules.

By registering an account on tap646 or otherwise using our platform, you acknowledge that you have read this Privacy Policy and that you consent to the collection and processing of your personal data as described here. If you do not agree, you should not create an account or continue using tap646.

This Privacy Policy should be read alongside the tap646 Terms and Conditions. Together, these documents set out the full relationship between you and tap646 in respect of your account and personal data.

2. What Personal Data tap646 Collects

tap646 collects personal information in several different ways depending on how you interact with the platform. The categories below cover the main types of data involved.

2.1 Registration Data

When you create a tap646 account, we collect:

• Your full legal name
• Date of birth (to verify that you are at least 18 years old)
• Mobile phone number
• Email address
• Username and password (password is stored in hashed form)
• Address (required at the identity verification stage)

2.2 Identity Verification Data

Philippine regulations and our own security standards may require us to verify your identity at various points. For this purpose, tap646 may request:

• A government-issued ID (e.g., Philippine passport, SSS card, driver's licence, PhilSys national ID, UMID)
• A recent proof of address document (utility bill or bank statement)
• Proof of ownership of the payment method used for deposits or withdrawals

2.3 Financial and Transaction Data

When you deposit or withdraw on tap646, we collect records of those transactions including the payment method used, the amount in Philippine Peso, the date and time, and the transaction reference. We do not store complete bank account numbers, full card numbers, or e-wallet PINs on our servers.

2.4 Usage and Technical Data

tap646 automatically collects certain technical information when you use the platform, including:

• IP address and general geographic location
• Device type, operating system, and browser version
• Pages visited, time spent, buttons clicked, and session duration
• Referring URL and navigation path through the site

2.5 Communications Data

If you contact tap646 support, we record the content of that communication — whether by email, chat, or other channel — along with the date, time, and outcome. This record is used for quality assurance, dispute resolution, and training purposes.

3. Why tap646 Collects Your Data

Every piece of data tap646 collects is tied to a specific, legitimate purpose. We do not collect data speculatively or "just in case". The table below outlines the primary purposes for processing personal information:

4. Legal Basis for Processing

tap646 processes your personal data under the following legal grounds as recognised by the Data Privacy Act of 2012:

• Consent: You give us clear consent at the point of registration to process your data for account management and direct communications from tap646.
• Contractual necessity: Processing is necessary to fulfil the agreement between you and tap646 — for example, to process a deposit or settle a bet result.
• Legal obligation: tap646 must retain certain records and conduct identity checks to meet regulatory and anti-money laundering requirements.
• Legitimate interest: Processing for fraud prevention, platform security, and abuse detection is conducted under legitimate interest where it does not override your privacy rights.

Where processing is based on consent, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time by contacting support@tap646.best. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing that occurred before the withdrawal.

5. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

tap646 uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to operate the platform correctly and to understand how players use the site. A cookie is a small text file placed on your device when you visit a website. The main types of cookies used on tap646 are:

• Essential cookies: Required for the platform to function. These include session management cookies that keep you logged in and security cookies that prevent cross-site request forgery. These cannot be disabled without breaking platform functionality.
• Analytics cookies: Used to collect aggregated, anonymised information about how visitors navigate tap646. This helps us identify pages that are hard to use or that load slowly. No personally identifiable information is included in analytics reports.
• Preference cookies: Store your chosen language, display settings, or notification preferences so you do not need to re-enter them on each visit.

You can adjust cookie preferences through your browser settings. Note that disabling essential cookies will prevent tap646 from operating correctly for your session. Disabling analytics cookies will not affect your ability to play or transact.

6. Who tap646 Shares Your Data With

tap646 does not sell or rent your personal data to any third party. We share data only in the following limited circumstances:

• Payment processors: When you make a deposit or withdrawal, your transaction data is shared with the relevant payment service provider (such as GCash, Maya, or your bank) to the extent necessary to complete the transaction. These providers operate under their own privacy policies.
• Identity verification services: Where document verification is required, data may be shared with a licensed third-party verification provider operating under data processing agreements with tap646.
• Technology and hosting providers: tap646 uses third-party cloud hosting and infrastructure providers. These providers access data solely to maintain and operate the systems on which tap646 runs and are bound by data processing agreements.
• Legal and regulatory authorities: tap646 may be required by law to disclose account records, transaction data, or identity documents to regulatory bodies, law enforcement agencies, or courts in the Philippines or in other applicable jurisdictions. tap646 will not notify you of such a disclosure where prohibited from doing so by law.
• Fraud prevention networks: In cases of suspected fraud, tap646 may share limited identifying information with financial crime prevention services to protect the platform and other players.

All third parties with whom tap646 shares personal data are required to handle that data in accordance with applicable privacy law and the terms of data processing agreements maintained by tap646.

7. How Long tap646 Keeps Your Data

tap646 retains personal data only for as long as necessary for the stated purpose or as required by applicable law. The general retention principles are:

• Active account data: Retained for the full period that your account remains open and active on tap646.
• Closed account data: Following voluntary or administrative closure of your account, core identity and transaction records are retained for a minimum of five (5) years to comply with anti-money laundering obligations and applicable accounting requirements.
• Communications data: Support conversations and correspondence are retained for up to three (3) years from the date of the most recent communication in a given matter.
• Session and usage logs: Technical usage logs are retained for up to twelve (12) months, after which they are deleted or fully anonymised.
• Fraud investigation records: Where an account was closed due to confirmed or suspected fraud, tap646 may retain relevant data indefinitely for the purpose of preventing re-registration and protecting the platform.

When data is no longer required and no legal obligation compels its retention, tap646 deletes or anonymises it using secure methods.

8. Security Measures

tap646 implements a range of technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data from unauthorised access, accidental loss, alteration, or disclosure. These measures include:

• Encryption of data in transit using TLS/HTTPS protocols across all pages and API connections.
• Password storage using industry-standard one-way hashing algorithms — tap646 staff cannot retrieve your actual password.
• Access controls that restrict which staff members can view player account data based on their role and the principle of least privilege.
• Routine security audits and vulnerability assessments of the platform infrastructure.
• Monitoring systems that detect unusual login patterns, rapid account changes, or signs of credential compromise.
• Secure data deletion protocols applied when records reach the end of their retention period.

No online system is 100% immune to attack. In the unlikely event of a data breach affecting your personal information, tap646 will notify affected players and relevant authorities in accordance with applicable data breach notification obligations.

You play an equally important role in keeping your account secure. Use a unique, strong password for tap646, never share your credentials or one-time codes with anyone, and log out from shared devices after every session.

9. Your Privacy Rights

As a data subject under the Data Privacy Act of 2012, every tap646 player in the Philippines has the following rights in relation to their personal information:

To exercise any of these rights, send a written request to support@tap646.best with the subject line "Privacy Rights Request" and include your registered account details. tap646 will respond within a reasonable period, typically within thirty (30) calendar days. Some requests may require identity verification before they are processed.

10. Children and Minors

tap646 is strictly intended for adults aged 18 years and above. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If during account review tap646 determines or reasonably suspects that an account holder is under 18, the account will be suspended immediately and any associated balances withheld pending investigation.

If you are a parent or guardian and you believe that a minor has created an account on tap646 using inaccurate age information, please contact us immediately at support@tap646.best so that we can investigate and take appropriate action.

11. Updates to This Privacy Policy

tap646 may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the law, in our data processing practices, or in the features and services available on the platform. When material changes are made, we will post the updated policy on this page with a revised effective date and, where appropriate, notify registered players by email or account notification.

We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically. Your continued use of tap646 after the effective date of an updated policy constitutes acceptance of the changes. If the changes are not acceptable to you, please stop using tap646 and contact us to request account closure.
