This Privacy Policy explains how ffjl Casino collects, processes, stores, and protects your personal data in compliance with the Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act 10173) of the Philippines and PAGCOR's regulatory requirements. Please read this document carefully before registering an Account.
ffjl processes all personal data in full compliance with Republic Act 10173, the Data Privacy Act of 2012, and its Implementing Rules and Regulations. We are registered with the National Privacy Commission (NPC) as required for entities that process sensitive personal information.
ffjl collects only the personal data that is strictly necessary for the purposes described in this Policy. We do not collect data speculatively or for purposes beyond those outlined here. Every data point we collect has a clearly identified legal basis and purpose.
ffjl does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to unrelated third parties for commercial purposes. Your data is shared only with essential service providers and regulatory authorities as described in this Policy — never monetised without your explicit consent.
As a PAGCOR-licensed operator, ffjl has mandatory data-sharing obligations with PAGCOR and the Anti-Money Laundering Council (AMLC) under Philippine law. These regulatory disclosures are not discretionary and are set out transparently in this Privacy Policy.
Personal data stored by ffjl is protected with SSL 256-bit encryption in transit, AES-256 encryption at rest, access controls limiting staff access to only what their role requires, and regular security assessments. We follow industry-standard security practices for financial data handling.
Under the Data Privacy Act of 2012, you have legally protected rights over your personal data including the right to be informed, to access, to rectify, to erase, to object, to data portability, and to lodge a complaint with the NPC. ffjl has procedures to facilitate the exercise of all these rights.
In this Privacy Policy, the following terms carry the meanings defined below:

Where processing is based on your consent, withdrawal of that consent will not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out prior to withdrawal, nor will it affect processing that continues on a different legal basis.

You can manage your cookie preferences through your browser settings. Disabling essential and security cookies will impair your ability to use the Platform, including the ffjl Login function. Disabling analytics and preference cookies will not affect your ability to use the Platform but may result in a less personalised experience.
ffjl retains personal data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected and to comply with applicable legal and regulatory retention obligations. The following retention periods apply:
| Data Category | Retention Period | Legal Basis |

ffjl implements appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, loss, or destruction. Our security measures include:
Under the Data Privacy Act of 2012, you have the following rights with respect to your personal data held by ffjl. These rights are legally protected and ffjl will not penalise you for exercising them:
The right to know that your personal data is being collected and the purposes for which it is processed — satisfied by this Privacy Policy.
The right to obtain a copy of your personal data held by ffjl and information about how it is processed.
The right to have inaccurate or incomplete personal data corrected. Some data corrections require updated KYC documentation.
The right to have your personal data deleted, subject to legal retention obligations (particularly AMLA and PAGCOR requirements that override erasure requests).
The right to object to processing based on legitimate interests or for direct marketing purposes. Objections to marketing are always honoured immediately.
The right to receive your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format where technically feasible.
To exercise any of these rights, submit a written request to our Data Protection Officer at the contact details in Section 17. ffjl will respond within fifteen (15) days of receiving a verifiable request. We may require identity verification before processing certain requests to protect against unauthorised access to your data.
If you are not satisfied with ffjl's response to a data rights request, you have the right to file a complaint directly with the National Privacy Commission of the Philippines at the NPC's official address.
The ffjl Platform is strictly restricted to individuals aged 21 years and above in compliance with PAGCOR's Philippine gaming regulations. ffjl does not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under 21 years of age.
If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child may have registered on ffjl, please contact our Data Protection Officer immediately at [email protected]. We take age compliance extremely seriously and will act promptly on any such notification.
ffjl will send you marketing communications — including promotional offers, bonus notifications, and new game announcements — only where you have provided explicit, freely given consent during Account registration or at a subsequent point. Marketing consent is entirely optional and is separate from the essential service communications required for Account operation.
You may withdraw your consent to receive marketing communications at any time by:
Withdrawal of marketing consent will be processed within five (5) business days. You will continue to receive essential service communications (account security alerts, transaction confirmations, KYC requests, and responsible gaming notifications required by PAGCOR) regardless of your marketing preference.
ffjl does not share your contact details with third-party marketers for the purpose of sending you their marketing materials.
In the event of a personal data breach affecting ffjl's systems, ffjl will follow the following procedures in compliance with NPC Circular No. 16-03 on Personal Data Breach Management:
ffjl's primary data processing infrastructure is located within the Philippines. Where ffjl engages third-party service providers whose systems are located outside the Philippines — for example, cloud infrastructure or certain specialised software tools — any transfer of personal data to those providers is subject to ffjl's assessment that the recipient country provides an adequate level of protection, or the implementation of appropriate safeguards including contractual clauses.
In all cases, international transfers of personal data by ffjl are carried out in compliance with NPC rules on cross-border data transfers, specifically NPC Advisory No. 2017-01 and applicable sections of the Data Privacy Act's Implementing Rules and Regulations.
Players may request information about specific international data transfers affecting their personal data by contacting the DPO at [email protected].
ffjl reserves the right to update this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in our data processing practices, applicable Philippine law, NPC guidance, or PAGCOR requirements. All amendments will be posted on this page with an updated effective date and version number.
Where amendments are material — for example, where we introduce a new processing purpose or a new category of data sharing — ffjl will notify registered Players by email or in-platform notification at least fourteen (14) days before the change takes effect. For non-material amendments, including minor clarifications and corrections, the updated Policy will be posted without advance notice.
Your continued use of the ffjl Platform after an amendment's effective date constitutes your acknowledgment of the revised Policy. If you object to any amendment, you may close your Account prior to the effective date. Please review this Policy periodically. The effective date and version number at the top of this page indicate when the Policy was last updated.
ffjl has designated a Data Protection Officer (DPO) in compliance with NPC Circular No. 16-01. The DPO is responsible for overseeing ffjl's compliance with the Data Privacy Act and this Privacy Policy, and is the primary contact for all data privacy matters.
To exercise your data subject rights, submit a privacy inquiry, report a suspected data breach, or raise a concern about ffjl's data processing practices, contact the DPO using the details below:
When contacting the DPO for data rights requests, please include your full name, registered Account mobile number, a description of your request, and a copy of a valid government-issued ID for identity verification. ffjl will not process data rights requests that cannot be matched to a verified Account holder.
