betbolt Privacy Policy
betbolt takes the privacy of every Filipino player seriously. This Privacy Policy describes what personal information betbolt collects when you use the betbolt platform, how that information is used, who it may be shared with, how long it is retained, and what rights you have over your own data. Please read this document carefully. By creating a betbolt account or continuing to use the platform, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Policy.
How betbolt Protects Your Data
Six core principles that shape how betbolt handles your personal information every single day.
256-Bit SSL Encryption
Every piece of data transmitted between your device and betbolt's servers is protected with 256-bit SSL encryption — the same standard used by Philippine banks. Your login credentials, financial details, and personal information are never sent in plain text.
Data Minimisation
betbolt only collects the personal data that is strictly necessary for account registration, identity verification, payment processing, and regulatory compliance. We do not collect data speculatively or for purposes beyond those described in this Policy.
No Unauthorised Third-Party Sharing
betbolt does not sell, rent, or otherwise transfer your personal data to third parties for their own marketing purposes. Data is only shared with trusted partners — such as payment processors and game providers — who are contractually bound to handle it securely.
Your Rights, Your Control
You have the right to access the personal data betbolt holds about you, request corrections, and in certain circumstances request deletion. betbolt provides a clear process for exercising these rights through our support team, in accordance with Philippine data privacy law.
Philippine DPA Compliance
betbolt's data practices are aligned with the Republic Act 10173, otherwise known as the Data Privacy Act of 2012 (DPA) of the Philippines, and the National Privacy Commission's implementing rules. Our handling of your data meets or exceeds the standards set by Philippine law.
Opt-Out of Marketing
betbolt players can opt out of promotional emails, SMS notifications, and in-platform marketing messages at any time. Each marketing communication includes an unsubscribe option, and preferences can also be managed directly within your betbolt account settings without contacting support.
1 Who We Are
betbolt ("betbolt", "we", "us", "our") operates the online casino and sports betting platform accessible at betbolt.pro. betbolt is the data controller responsible for the personal information collected through this platform and through any related customer support, marketing, and account management activities.
This Privacy Policy applies to all registered players, website visitors, and individuals who interact with betbolt's customer support team, regardless of the device or channel used. It covers data collected through the betbolt website, any mobile-optimised version of the platform, and any communication channels operated by betbolt.
2 Data We Collect
betbolt collects personal data across several categories, depending on how you interact with the platform. The categories of data we may collect include:
| Category | Examples | When Collected |
|---|---|---|
| Identity Data | Full legal name, date of birth, government-issued ID number, selfie photo for verification | Registration and KYC verification |
| Contact Data | Email address, mobile number, residential address (barangay, city, province, ZIP) | Registration and account management |
| Financial Data | GCash number, Maya wallet ID, bank account name and number (BPI, BDO, Metrobank), transaction history | Deposits, withdrawals, and KYC |
| Gaming Activity Data | Bet history, game sessions, wager amounts, win/loss records, bonus usage | Continuously during platform use |
| Technical Data | IP address, device type, browser type and version, operating system, session timestamps | On each platform visit or login |
| Communications Data | Support chat transcripts, email correspondence, feedback submissions | When you contact betbolt support |
| Marketing Preferences | Email opt-in/opt-out status, promotional communication preferences, language preference | Registration and account settings |
betbolt does not intentionally collect sensitive personal information beyond what is necessary for identity verification and regulatory compliance. Where government-issued ID documents are required for KYC, these are processed solely for verification purposes and are not retained beyond the period required by applicable law.
