The 88merry platform is strictly intended for individuals who are at least 21 years of age, in accordance with Philippine law. We do not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under the age of 21. If we become aware that we have inadvertently collected personal data from an underage individual, we will take immediate steps to delete that data and close the associated account.
If you are a parent or guardian and believe that your child has registered an account with 88merry, please contact our support team immediately at [email protected]. We will investigate and take appropriate action without delay.
Age Verification: 88merry employs age verification technology and manual KYC review to prevent underage access. Any winnings accrued by an underage player will be forfeited in full and the account will be permanently closed.
88merry primarily stores and processes player data on servers located within the Philippines. In certain circumstances, your personal data may be transferred to and processed in countries outside the Philippines — for example, where we use cloud-based service providers whose infrastructure is located abroad.
Where such transfers occur, 88merry ensures that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your personal data, including contractual clauses that require the recipient to provide a level of data protection equivalent to that required under Philippine law. By using the Platform, you consent to such transfers where they are necessary for the provision of our services.
The 88merry platform may contain links to third-party websites or services. This Privacy Policy applies solely to data collected and processed by 88merry through the Platform. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of any third-party websites, and we encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party sites you visit.
88merry reserves the right to update or amend this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in our data processing practices, applicable law, or the features of the Platform. Any amendments will be published on this page with an updated "Last Updated" date.
Where amendments are material — for example, where we introduce a new purpose for processing your data or a new category of data sharing — we will provide reasonable advance notice via email or an in-platform notification. Your continued use of the Platform following the publication of any amended Privacy Policy constitutes your acceptance of the revised terms.
We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically to stay informed about how 88merry protects your personal data.
