4 Legal Basis for Processing

hawkplayreal processes your personal data on the following legal grounds under the Data Privacy Act of 2012:

Contractual necessity — processing required to provide the platform services you have registered for, including account management and payment processing
Legal obligation — processing required to comply with applicable Philippine laws, including anti-money laundering requirements and KYC obligations
Legitimate interests — processing required for fraud prevention, platform security, and responsible gaming monitoring
Consent — where you have provided explicit consent, such as for marketing communications

Where processing is based on consent, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of prior processing.

5 Sharing Your Data

hawkplayreal does not sell or rent your personal data to third parties. We may share your data with trusted third-party providers who assist in delivering our platform services, under strict data processing agreements. These include:

Payment processors who handle PHP transactions via local bank transfer and e-wallet channels
Identity verification service providers who assist with KYC document review
Game providers whose titles are integrated into the hawkplayreal platform
Platform infrastructure and hosting providers
Fraud prevention and security monitoring services

All third-party providers are required to handle your data in accordance with applicable data privacy laws and are not permitted to use your data for any purpose beyond what is necessary to provide the agreed service.

hawkplayreal may also disclose personal data where required by law, court order, or a lawful request from a Philippine government authority. We will notify affected users of such disclosures where permitted by law.

            Note on e-wallets: When you use GCash, Maya, or a local bank transfer to deposit or withdraw, the transaction is processed through the respective payment provider's systems. Your interaction with those payment services is also subject to their own privacy policies.
          

6 Data Security Measures

hawkplayreal implements appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, loss, alteration, or disclosure. These include:

SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) encryption for all data transmitted through the platform
OTP-based verification for account access on new or unrecognised devices
Access controls that limit which staff or systems can access personal data
Regular security reviews and monitoring of platform infrastructure

While hawkplayreal takes reasonable steps to protect your data, no online platform can guarantee absolute security. You are responsible for keeping your own login credentials, password, and OTP codes confidential. If you believe your account security has been compromised, contact hawkplayreal support through your account immediately.

7 Data Retention

hawkplayreal retains your personal data for as long as your account remains active and for a period thereafter as required by applicable laws and business purposes. Specific retention periods depend on the type of data:

Account registration data is retained for the duration of your account and for a defined period following account closure
Transaction and financial records are retained as required under Philippine financial recordkeeping and anti-money laundering obligations
KYC verification documents are retained for the legally required period following your last transaction
Technical and usage data is retained for security, fraud investigation, and responsible gaming purposes for a defined period

When personal data is no longer required for its stated purpose and there is no legal obligation to retain it, hawkplayreal will securely delete or anonymise it.
