What This Policy Covers
This Privacy Policy applies to all personal information collected by lotto8 through our website, mobile platform, and any related services available to players in the Philippines. It covers how we gather, store, use, and protect your data, as well as your rights as a data subject under applicable Philippine law. We encourage you to read this document carefully before registering or continuing to use our platform. If you have any questions about how your data is handled, you can reach our support team at [email protected]. This policy may be updated from time to time, and the most current version will always be available on this page.
Section 1
The Information We Collect From You
When you register for an account on lotto8, we collect personal information that is necessary to verify your identity and provide you with a safe, compliant gaming experience. This includes your full name, date of birth, residential address in the Philippines, email address, and mobile number. We also collect a copy of a valid government-issued identification document as part of our Know Your Customer (KYC) verification process, which is required under applicable regulations. During the course of your use of the platform, we may collect additional information such as your transaction history, deposit and withdrawal records, and betting activity. This information is used solely for the purposes described in this policy and is never sold to third parties.
In addition to information you provide directly, we automatically collect certain technical data when you access our platform. This includes your IP address, device type, browser version, operating system, and session activity logs. We use this technical data to maintain platform security, detect suspicious activity, and improve the overall performance of our services for players across the Philippines. If you contact our support team, we may also retain records of that correspondence, including any attachments or screenshots you share with us. All data collected is handled in accordance with the principles of transparency, proportionality, and purpose limitation.

Section 2
How We Put Your Data to Work
The personal information we collect is used primarily to operate and maintain your lotto8 account, process your deposits and withdrawals, and deliver the gaming and sports betting services you have signed up for. We also use your data to verify your identity and age in compliance with Philippine regulations, to detect and prevent fraud, and to ensure that our platform is not used for money laundering or other prohibited activities. Your contact details are used to send you important account notifications, security alerts, and updates about changes to our terms or policies. We do not use your personal data to send unsolicited marketing communications unless you have explicitly opted in to receive them, and you may withdraw that consent at any time by contacting our support team.
We may also use aggregated, anonymised data — which cannot be used to identify any individual — for internal analytics, product development, and platform improvement purposes. This helps us understand how players in the Philippines interact with our services so we can make them more relevant and enjoyable. Where we are required by law or by a regulatory authority to process your data in a specific way, we will do so regardless of your preferences, but we will always inform you of such requirements where we are permitted to do so. Your data is never used to make automated decisions that have a significant legal or similarly significant effect on you without human oversight.
Section 3
When and With Whom We Share Your Information
lotto8 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to any third party for their own marketing or commercial purposes. We may, however, share your data with carefully selected service providers who assist us in operating the platform — such as payment processors, identity verification providers, and fraud detection services. These third-party providers are contractually bound to handle your data only for the specific purposes for which it was shared, and they are required to maintain appropriate security standards. We do not permit them to use your data for any purpose beyond what is strictly necessary to deliver the service they provide to us.
We may also disclose your personal information to regulatory authorities, law enforcement agencies, or other government bodies in the Philippines when we are legally required to do so, or when we believe in good faith that such disclosure is necessary to protect the rights, property, or safety of lotto8, our players, or the public. In the event that lotto8 undergoes a business restructuring, merger, or acquisition, your personal data may be transferred to the successor entity as part of that transaction, subject to the same privacy protections described in this policy. You will be notified of any such change that materially affects how your data is handled.
Section 4
Keeping Your Data Safe and Secure
We take the security of your personal information seriously and implement a range of technical and organisational measures to protect it from unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. All data transmitted between your device and our platform is encrypted using industry-standard SSL/TLS protocols. Sensitive information such as payment details and identity documents is stored in encrypted form on secure servers with restricted access controls. Our security team regularly reviews and updates these measures to address emerging threats and to maintain compliance with applicable data protection standards in the Philippines.
Access to your personal data within our organisation is limited to staff members who have a legitimate need to process it in order to perform their job functions. All such staff are subject to confidentiality obligations and receive regular training on data protection best practices. While we take every reasonable precaution to protect your information, no system is entirely immune to risk, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. If you become aware of any unauthorised access to your account or suspect that your data has been compromised, you should contact our support team immediately at [email protected] so that we can take prompt action to investigate and mitigate the issue.
Section 5
Your Rights Over Your Personal Data
As a data subject under Philippine law, you have a number of rights in relation to the personal information we hold about you. You have the right to request access to your personal data, to receive a copy of it in a commonly used format, and to ask us to correct any inaccuracies. You also have the right to request the deletion of your personal data in certain circumstances — for example, if the data is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, or if you withdraw your consent and there is no other lawful basis for processing. To exercise any of these rights, you can contact our support team at [email protected] with your request, and we will respond within the timeframe required by applicable law.
Please note that some of your rights may be subject to limitations where we are required by law to retain your data — for example, for anti-money laundering compliance or regulatory reporting purposes. In such cases, we will explain the basis for retaining your data and the period for which it will be kept. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the relevant data protection authority in the Philippines if you believe that your rights have been infringed. We take all such concerns seriously and will cooperate fully with any investigation. Our goal is always to handle your personal information in a way that is fair, transparent, and respectful of your rights as a player.

Cookies and How We Use Them
Our platform uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your browsing experience, maintain your session when you are logged in, and gather anonymised analytics data that helps us understand how players use our services. Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your browser, and they do not contain any personally identifiable information on their own. We use strictly necessary cookies to ensure the platform functions correctly — these cannot be disabled without affecting your ability to use the service. We also use functional cookies that remember your preferences, such as your language settings and display options, so that you do not need to re-enter them each time you visit.
Analytics cookies help us understand which parts of the platform are most popular, how players navigate between pages, and where technical issues may be occurring. This information is collected in aggregated form and is not linked to your individual account. You can manage your cookie preferences through your browser settings at any time; however, disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of the platform. By continuing to use lotto8 after being presented with this information, you consent to our use of cookies as described in this policy. If you have questions about specific cookies used on our platform, you are welcome to contact our support team for more details.
