okwbet Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

okwbet ("we," "us," "our," or the "Platform") is committed to protecting the privacy and personal data of all users who access or register on the okwbet website at okwbet.cam. This Privacy Policy describes our practices with respect to the collection, use, storage, sharing, and protection of personal information in accordance with the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act No. 10173), its Implementing Rules and Regulations, and applicable PAGCOR data governance requirements.

12. Minors and Age Restriction

The okwbet platform is strictly intended for persons aged 21 years and above, consistent with Philippine gambling laws and PAGCOR regulations. okwbet does not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under 21 years of age.

If we discover that a registered account belongs to a person under the age of 21, we will immediately suspend the account, void any gameplay activity, and arrange for the return of any deposited funds (excluding bonus amounts). All personal data collected from the underage account will be permanently deleted except where retention is required by law.

If you are a parent or guardian and believe your minor child has registered an okwbet account, please contact us immediately at [email protected].

13. Cross-Border Data Transfers

Certain okwbet service providers — including game content platforms, cloud infrastructure providers, and fraud detection services — may process personal data outside the Philippines. Where such cross-border transfers occur, okwbet ensures they are covered by appropriate safeguards, including:

• Contractual clauses requiring the recipient to apply data protection standards equivalent to Philippine law;
• Adequacy assessments to verify that the destination country's privacy laws provide comparable protection; and
• Data minimization — only the minimum data necessary for the specific service is transferred.

Cross-border transfers are reported to PAGCOR as required under our licensing conditions.

14. Changes to This Privacy Policy

okwbet reserves the right to update this Privacy Policy at any time. Material changes — those that significantly affect your rights or how your data is used — will be communicated to registered users via email notification or prominent in-platform announcement at least 30 days before the changes take effect, giving you time to review the updated policy.

The "Last Updated" date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. Continued use of the okwbet platform after the effective date of any change constitutes acceptance of the revised Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with the changes, you may close your account before the effective date.
