At JL998, your privacy is not an afterthought — it is a core part of how we build and operate our platform. This Privacy Policy explains what personal data JL998 collects from Filipino players, how we use it, who we share it with, and what rights you have over your own information. Please read this policy carefully before registering a JL998 account.
JL998 ("we," "us," "our," or "the Platform") operates the online gaming website accessible at jl998.app, including the JL998 mobile application and all associated services. JL998 acts as the Personal Information Controller (PIC) for the personal data collected through the platform, as defined under the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012.
This Privacy Policy applies to all registered players, prospective players who browse the JL998 website, and any individual whose personal data is processed by JL998 in connection with the delivery of our gaming services to the Philippine market.
If you have questions about how JL998 handles your personal data, you may contact our Data Protection Officer (DPO) using the contact details provided in Section 13 of this policy.

Under the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012, you have the following rights with respect to your personal data held by JL998:
To exercise any of the above rights, please contact JL998's Data Protection Officer using the details in Section 13. JL998 will respond to all verified data subject requests within thirty (30) days of receipt. We may request proof of identity before processing your request to protect against unauthorized access to your data.
If JL998 becomes aware that personal data has been collected from an individual under 21 years of age, we will immediately suspend the associated account, delete the personal data in question, and void any gaming activity conducted by the underage individual. If you believe a minor has registered a JL998 account, please contact our support team immediately so we can take appropriate action.
JL998 employs age verification measures during the registration process and may request additional proof of age at any time. Parents and guardians are encouraged to use parental control software to prevent minors from accessing online gaming platforms.
The JL998 platform may contain links to third-party services, such as payment gateways and game providers. This Privacy Policy applies only to data processed by JL998 directly. When you interact with third-party services — for example, when completing a GCash or PayMaya transaction — you are subject to the privacy policy of that third-party provider.
JL998 is not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party services. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party services you use in connection with your JL998 account. JL998 selects third-party partners carefully and requires all partners who process personal data on our behalf to maintain appropriate data protection standards consistent with Philippine law.
JL998 may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our data processing practices, applicable Philippine law, or regulatory requirements. When material changes are made, JL998 will notify registered players by email or through an in-platform notification at least seven (7) days before the changes take effect.
The "Last Updated" date at the top of this policy indicates when the most recent revision was made. Your continued use of the JL998 platform after the effective date of any update constitutes your acceptance of the revised Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with the updated policy, you must cease using JL998 and may request account closure by contacting our support team.
We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically to stay informed about how JL998 protects your personal data.
