2.3 Data from Third Parties. We may receive personal data about you from third-party identity verification providers, payment processors (such as GCash and PayMaya), and fraud prevention services. We only receive data from third parties where we have a legitimate basis to do so.
bay896 uses your personal data only for the purposes for which it was collected or for compatible purposes that you would reasonably expect. The primary purposes for which we use your data are:
No Automated Decision-Making: bay896 does not make decisions that significantly affect you based solely on automated processing without human review, except where required by law or where you have given explicit consent.
Under the Data Privacy Act of 2012, bay896 processes your personal data on the following legal bases:
5.1 No Sale of Data. bay896 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to third-party marketers or data brokers under any circumstances.
5.2 Service Providers. We share personal data with carefully selected third-party service providers who assist us in operating the Platform. These include identity verification providers, payment processors (GCash, PayMaya, and Philippine banks), cloud hosting providers, and customer support platform providers. All service providers are contractually required to process your data only on our instructions and to maintain appropriate security standards.
5.3 Regulatory Authorities. bay896 is required by Philippine law to disclose certain information to regulatory and law enforcement authorities, including PAGCOR, the AMLC, the National Privacy Commission, and other competent authorities. Such disclosures are made only to the extent required by law.
5.4 Business Transfers. In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or part of bay896's business, your personal data may be transferred to the acquiring entity as part of that transaction. You will be notified of any such transfer and of any changes to this Policy that result from it.
5.5 With Your Consent. We may share your data with third parties for purposes not described in this Policy where you have given your explicit prior consent to such sharing.
Philippine Banks & E-Wallets: When you make a deposit or withdrawal via GCash, PayMaya, or a Philippine bank, your financial data is shared with that payment provider solely for the purpose of processing the transaction. bay896 does not store full payment credentials on its own servers.
6.1 Retention Periods. bay896 retains your personal data for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, to comply with legal obligations, and to resolve disputes. The following general retention periods apply:
6.2 Deletion. When personal data is no longer required for any of the purposes described above, bay896 will securely delete or anonymise it in accordance with our data retention and disposal procedures.
bay896 implements a comprehensive set of technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. These measures include:
