Philippine Law
Compliant with RA 10173
The Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012 gives Filipino citizens meaningful control over their personal information. At tara bet, compliance with RA 10173 isn't just a legal checkbox — it's something we genuinely believe in.
We have a designated Data Protection Officer, maintain a personal data inventory, conduct regular privacy impact assessments, and are registered with the National Privacy Commission (NPC). If you believe we have mishandled your data, you have the right to file a complaint directly with the NPC.
Our goal is to be the kind of platform that Filipino players can trust with their personal information — because trust, once broken, is hard to rebuild.
5. Legal Basis for Processing
Under the Data Privacy Act, every instance of personal data processing must have a legitimate legal basis. The bases tara bet relies on include:
- Performance of contract: Processing necessary to operate your account, process transactions, and provide the services you signed up for.
- Legal obligation: Processing required by Philippine law, including anti-money laundering compliance, tax reporting, and gaming regulatory requirements.
- Legitimate interests: Processing for fraud prevention, platform security, and responsible gaming monitoring — where our legitimate interests are not overridden by your privacy rights.
- Consent: Where you have explicitly opted in to receive marketing communications or for any processing activity not covered by the bases above. You may withdraw consent at any time.
6. Who We Share Your Data With
Tara bet does not sell your personal data. We share it only in the following limited circumstances:
- Payment providers: GCash, Maya, GrabPay, Coins.ph, BDO, BPI, UnionBank, and card processors receive the minimum data necessary to complete your transactions.
- KYC and identity verification providers: Third-party verification services that help us confirm your identity in compliance with Philippine AML regulations.
- IT and security service providers: Companies that help us run and secure the tara bet platform, under strict contractual obligations to protect your data.
- Regulatory authorities: The Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR), the Anti-Money Laundering Council (AMLC), the National Privacy Commission (NPC), or law enforcement agencies — when legally required to do so.
- Professional advisors: Legal counsel or auditors, where necessary for compliance or dispute resolution, under strict confidentiality obligations.
All third parties that receive your data are required to handle it in a manner consistent with the Data Privacy Act. We do not allow them to use your data for their own purposes beyond the service they provide to tara bet.
7. How Long We Keep Your Data
Tara bet retains your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes outlined in this policy. The specific retention periods we follow are:
- Account data: Retained for the duration of your active account, plus a minimum of 5 years after account closure — as required by Philippine AML law.
- Transaction records: Kept for a minimum of 5 years in compliance with financial record-keeping requirements.
- KYC documents: Retained for at least 5 years from the date of submission or the date the business relationship ends, whichever is later.
- Support communications: Retained for up to 2 years after the last interaction for quality assurance and dispute resolution purposes.
- Technical and usage data: Generally retained for 12–24 months for analytics and security purposes.
When retention periods expire, data is securely deleted or anonymized so it can no longer be linked to you.
8. How We Protect Your Data
Tara bet implements a range of technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal data from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction:
- All data transmitted between your device and tara bet is protected by Transport Layer Security (TLS) encryption.
- Sensitive stored data is encrypted at rest using AES-256 or equivalent standards.
- Access to personal data within tara bet is restricted on a need-to-know basis, with role-based access controls enforced.
- We conduct regular security assessments and vulnerability testing of our platform.
- Our staff who handle personal data are trained in data privacy requirements and bound by confidentiality obligations.
- Multi-factor authentication is available to all players and mandatory for administrative access.
While no system is completely impenetrable, tara bet is committed to maintaining security standards that go beyond minimum compliance. In the event of a security incident that affects your personal data, we will notify you and the National Privacy Commission within the timeframes required by Philippine law.
9. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
