5bmv Privacy Policy
At 5bmv, protecting the personal data of our Filipino players is not just a legal obligation — it is a fundamental part of how we operate. This Privacy Policy explains what personal information we collect, why we collect it, how it is used, and the rights you hold as a data subject under Philippine law.
How 5bmv Handles Your Data
These cards summarise 5bmv's key privacy commitments. The complete legal text follows in the sections below — please read the full policy before using the platform.
Minimal Data Collection
5bmv collects only the personal data that is strictly necessary to operate your account, process transactions, comply with PAGCOR regulations, and deliver the gaming services you have requested. We do not collect data for its own sake.
Secure Storage & Transmission
All personal data held by 5bmv is stored in encrypted form on secure servers. Data transmitted between your device and the 5bmv platform is protected by TLS 1.3 encryption. We maintain industry-standard access controls to prevent unauthorised data access.
No Sale of Personal Data
5bmv does not sell, rent, or commercially trade your personal data to any third party. Where data is shared with service providers, it is done strictly to enable the delivery of 5bmv's services and is governed by binding confidentiality agreements.
NPC Compliance — RA 10173
5bmv processes personal data in compliance with the Philippines' Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act 10173) and the implementing rules enforced by the National Privacy Commission (NPC). Your rights as a Filipino data subject are actively respected.
Defined Retention Periods
5bmv retains personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, or as required by applicable Philippine law and PAGCOR regulations. Once retention periods expire, data is securely deleted or anonymised.
Breach Notification
In the unlikely event of a personal data breach affecting your information, 5bmv is committed to notifying affected Players and the National Privacy Commission within the timeframes required by RA 10173, with clear details on the nature of the breach and remedial actions taken.

7.2 Regulatory Authorities
5bmv is required to disclose certain personal data to PAGCOR, the National Privacy Commission, the Anti-Money Laundering Council (AMLC), and other competent Philippine authorities where required by applicable law, regulatory mandate, or court order.
7.3 Business Transfers

No Data Sales: 5bmv strictly prohibits the sale or commercial licensing of your personal data to advertisers, data brokers, or any other commercial third party. Your data is used exclusively for the purposes stated in this Privacy Policy.
