8k817 uses cookies and similar technologies to operate the platform, maintain your session, and improve your experience. The following types of cookies are used:
- Strictly necessary cookies: Required for the platform to function. These include session authentication tokens, CSRF protection tokens, and load-balancing cookies. These cannot be disabled without preventing you from using 8k817.
- Functional cookies: Remember your preferences such as language settings, display preferences, and recently played games. These improve your experience but are not essential.

- Marketing cookies: Used to deliver relevant promotional content and track the effectiveness of 8k817's marketing efforts. These are only activated where you have provided consent.
You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings. Disabling strictly necessary cookies will prevent you from logging in to your 8k817 account. For other cookie types, opting out may affect the functionality and personalisation of the platform but will not prevent basic access.
7. Data Retention
8k817 retains personal data for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. The following general retention periods apply:

8. Data Security
8k817 implements a range of technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal information against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. These measures include:
- Transport Layer Security (TLS / SSL) encryption for all data transmitted between your device and 8k817 servers.
- Encryption of sensitive data at rest, including KYC documents and financial information, using industry-standard encryption protocols.
- Role-based access controls limiting employee access to personal data on a strict need-to-know basis.
- Multi-factor authentication requirements for platform administrative access.
- Regular security assessments and penetration testing of platform infrastructure.
- Segregation of player funds from operational accounts, reducing exposure in the event of a financial security incident.
While 8k817 takes reasonable steps to protect your data, no internet-based platform can guarantee absolute security. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your own 8k817 account credentials and for notifying 8k817 support immediately if you suspect unauthorised access to your account.
In the event of a personal data breach that is likely to result in a risk to your rights and freedoms, 8k817 will notify the relevant Philippine regulatory authorities and, where required, affected individuals in accordance with the timelines prescribed by the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012 and its implementing rules.
