What This Privacy Policy Covers
Six principles that summarise how mn88 handles your personal data — before you read the full policy below.
mn88 collects personal data you provide during registration (name, date of birth, mobile number, email), KYC documents (Philippine government-issued ID), payment information, and data generated by your use of the platform such as login history, game activity, and device identifiers.
Your data is used to operate your mn88 account, verify your identity, process GCash and bank transactions, detect fraud, comply with PAGCOR and AML regulations, provide customer support, and improve the platform. We do not sell your personal information to third-party marketers.
mn88 shares personal data only with payment processors (GCash, Maya, BPI, BDO, etc.), licensed game providers, KYC/identity verification partners, and regulatory authorities (PAGCOR, AMLC) where required by Philippine law. All third-party partners are bound by data processing agreements.
All personal data at mn88 is protected by 256-bit SSL encryption in transit, access-controlled server environments, and strict internal data handling policies. We apply the principle of data minimisation — collecting only what is necessary — and retain data only for as long as legally required.
Under the Philippines' Data Privacy Act (RA 10173), you have the right to access, correct, erase, restrict, and object to the processing of your personal data held by mn88. You may exercise these rights at any time by contacting our Data Protection Officer (DPO) or via the account settings page.
mn88 uses cookies and similar technologies to keep your session active, remember your preferences, and analyse platform performance. Strictly necessary cookies cannot be disabled. Analytics and preference cookies may be managed through your browser settings. No third-party advertising cookies are used on mn88.

This Privacy Policy applies to all personal data collected and processed by mn88 ("the Platform," "we," "us," or "our") through the website at mn88.lat and any related mobile interfaces, APIs, or communication channels. It should be read alongside the mn88 Terms & Conditions and Responsible Gaming Policy. By registering for or using an mn88 account, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy and consent to the processing of your personal data as described herein.
Introduction & Scope
mn88 is committed to handling your personal data responsibly, transparently, and in accordance with applicable Philippine data protection law — principally the Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act No. 10173), its Implementing Rules and Regulations (IRR), and the relevant issuances of the National Privacy Commission (NPC) of the Philippines.
This Privacy Policy governs the collection, use, storage, sharing, and protection of personal data submitted to or generated by mn88 through all channels, including:
- The mn88.lat website and any mobile-optimised interface;
- The account registration, login, and KYC verification process;
- Deposits and withdrawals via GCash, Maya, bank transfer, and other supported Philippine payment channels;
- Live chat, email, and any other customer support communication;
- Game play, betting activity, and in-session data generated on the Platform;
- Marketing and promotional communications where you have opted in.
This Policy applies to all registered mn88 players, prospective players who browse the Platform without registering, and any person who contacts mn88 for support or information. It does not apply to third-party websites or services linked from mn88, which operate under their own privacy policies.
Data Controller
For the purposes of the Data Privacy Act of 2012, mn88 acts as the Personal Information Controller (PIC) in respect of personal data collected through the Platform. mn88 determines the purposes and means of processing your personal data and is responsible for ensuring that processing is carried out lawfully, fairly, and transparently.
mn88 has appointed a Data Protection Officer (DPO) responsible for overseeing compliance with RA 10173. Contact details for the DPO are provided in Section 15 of this Policy. The DPO is your primary point of contact for any data privacy concern, rights request, or complaint.

- Marketing Communications: Sending promotional offers, bonus notifications, and platform updates to players who have opted in to receive such communications. You may withdraw this consent at any time.
Legal Bases for Processing
Under Section 12 of the Data Privacy Act of 2012, mn88 processes personal data on the following legal bases:
- Contract Performance: Processing necessary to perform the contract between you and mn88 (i.e., providing the Platform's gaming and account services);
- Legal Obligation: Processing required to comply with obligations under Philippine law, including RA 9160 (AMLA), PAGCOR's licensing conditions, and NPC registration requirements;
- Legitimate Interests: Processing for fraud prevention, platform security, responsible gaming monitoring, and analytics — where those interests are not overridden by your data protection rights;
- Consent: Processing for optional purposes such as marketing communications, where you have given freely given, specific, informed, and unambiguous consent. You may withdraw this consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing prior to withdrawal.
Sharing & Disclosure of Personal Data
mn88 shares personal data with third parties only to the extent necessary for the purposes described in this Policy and only where appropriate safeguards are in place. Recipients of your personal data may include:
- Payment Processors: GCash (Mynt), Maya (Voyager Innovations), BPI, BDO, Metrobank, InstaPay, PesoNet, QR Ph, GrabPay, and 7-Eleven CLiQQ — solely for processing your deposits and withdrawals;
- KYC & Identity Verification Partners: Third-party providers that assist mn88 in verifying the authenticity of government-issued Philippine IDs and conducting liveness checks — processing under strict data processing agreements;
- Game Providers: Licensed game studios (e.g., PG Soft, Pragmatic Play, JDB) receive limited session tokens to authenticate your game access — they do not receive your full personal profile;
- Regulatory Authorities: PAGCOR, the Anti-Money Laundering Council (AMLC), the National Privacy Commission (NPC), and Philippine law enforcement where disclosure is required by law, court order, or regulatory directive;
- Fraud Prevention Services: Third-party fraud and risk assessment platforms that process transaction and behavioural data to detect suspicious activity;
- IT and Infrastructure Providers: Cloud hosting and data centre providers operating under data processing agreements with security standards equivalent to or exceeding mn88's own requirements.
All third-party processors engaged by mn88 are required to process personal data only on mn88's documented instructions and in accordance with data protection obligations consistent with RA 10173.
Data Retention
mn88 retains personal data for the minimum period necessary to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected, subject to applicable legal and regulatory retention requirements. The following retention periods apply:
| Data Category | Retention Period | Basis |
|---|---|---|
| Account & identity records | 5 years after account closure | PAGCOR & AMLA requirements |
| Transaction / financial records | 5 years from transaction date | RA 9160 (AMLA) as amended |
| KYC documents | 5 years after account closure | PAGCOR KYC requirements |
| Customer support records | 3 years from last interaction | Legitimate interests (disputes) |
| Game session / wagering logs | 3 years from session date | PAGCOR & dispute resolution |
| Marketing consent records | Until consent is withdrawn + 1 year | RA 10173 consent obligations |
| Cookie / session data | Session duration to 12 months | Platform functionality |
Upon expiry of the applicable retention period, personal data is securely deleted or anonymised in a manner that prevents re-identification, unless retention for a longer period is required by a specific legal obligation.
Security Measures
mn88 implements technical and organisational security measures appropriate to the sensitivity of the personal data we process. These include:
- Encryption in Transit: All data transmitted between your device and mn88 servers is encrypted using TLS 1.2+ (256-bit SSL), consistent with the standards used by Philippine banks for online transactions;
- Encryption at Rest: Sensitive data fields (ID document images, payment tokens, passwords) are encrypted at rest using AES-256;
- Access Controls: Personal data is accessible only to mn88 personnel with a documented, role-specific business need. Access is governed by the principle of least privilege and is regularly audited;
- Password Security: Player passwords are stored as salted cryptographic hashes — mn88 staff cannot see your password in plain text;
- Two-Factor Authentication: mn88 supports SMS-based 2FA for player accounts, adding a second verification layer beyond username and password;
- Intrusion Detection: mn88 systems are monitored for unauthorised access attempts, anomalous login patterns, and security incidents around the clock;
- Incident Response: mn88 maintains a data breach response plan compliant with NPC Circular 16-03 requirements, including notification obligations to the NPC and affected data subjects within prescribed timeframes.
While mn88 takes all reasonable measures to protect your personal data, no internet transmission or electronic storage method is 100% secure. Players are reminded to use strong, unique passwords for their mn88 accounts and to enable two-factor authentication to maximise account security.
Cookies & Tracking Technologies
mn88 uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to provide, secure, and improve the Platform. The following categories of cookies are used:
| Cookie Type | Purpose | Can Be Disabled? |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly Necessary | Session management, authentication, fraud prevention, load balancing | No — required for Platform to function |
| Functional / Preference | Remembering language settings, game lobby layout preferences, responsible gaming settings | Yes — via browser settings |
| Analytics | Aggregated, anonymised data on page performance, error rates, and feature usage — used to improve mn88 | Yes — via browser settings |
mn88 does not use third-party advertising or behavioural tracking cookies. No data collected via mn88 cookies is shared with advertising networks. You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings; however, disabling strictly necessary cookies will impair or prevent access to the Platform.
International Data Transfers
As mn88 partners with game providers and infrastructure vendors whose servers may be located outside the Philippines, personal data may in some cases be transferred to, processed in, or stored in jurisdictions other than the Philippines.
Where such transfers occur, mn88 ensures that appropriate safeguards are in place in accordance with Section 21 of RA 10173 and the NPC's guidelines on cross-border data transfers. Safeguards include:
- Data processing agreements requiring the recipient to protect the data to a standard at least equivalent to RA 10173;
- Transfer only to jurisdictions that the NPC has determined provide adequate protection, or to recipients that have implemented adequacy measures acceptable under Philippine law;
- Contractual clauses binding the recipient to the same data protection obligations applicable to mn88.
No personal data is transferred to any jurisdiction for the purpose of evading the protections of the Data Privacy Act of 2012 or any other applicable Philippine law.
Your Rights Under RA 10173
The Data Privacy Act of 2012 grants you the following rights with respect to your personal data held by mn88. You may exercise any of these rights at any time by contacting the mn88 Data Protection Officer (see Section 15):
Children & Minors
mn88 does not knowingly collect personal data from any person under the age of 21. The Platform is strictly for adults aged 21 and above in compliance with PAGCOR's regulations governing online gaming in the Philippines.
mn88 implements mandatory age verification during account registration and KYC. If mn88 discovers or has reason to believe that personal data has been collected from a person under 21, the account will be immediately closed, all associated data will be deleted or anonymised, and any balance will be returned via the original payment method following identity verification of the account holder's guardian or legal representative.
If you believe a minor has registered or is using an mn88 account, please notify our support team immediately via live chat or email so that we can take prompt action.
Responsible Gaming & Data Processing
mn88 processes certain personal data — including game session history, deposit frequency, and responsible gaming tool settings — specifically to support its responsible gaming obligations. This data is used to:
- Honour self-exclusion requests immediately and across all access points to the Platform;
- Monitor for behavioural indicators consistent with problem gambling and, where appropriate, prompt players with responsible gaming information;
- Record and enforce deposit limits, loss limits, and session time caps set by the player;
- Comply with PAGCOR's player protection requirements for online gaming operators.
Self-exclusion data is retained beyond the standard account closure period as required by PAGCOR to prevent a self-excluded player from re-registering on mn88 during the exclusion period. This retention is in the player's own interest and is a legal obligation for regulated operators.
For full details on mn88's responsible gaming tools and resources, please visit the Responsible Gaming page.
