6 Data Sharing and Disclosure
playjl does not sell your personal data. However, in the course of operating the platform, certain personal data may be shared with the following categories of regulated third parties strictly for the purposes outlined:
6.1 Payment Service Providers
To process deposits and withdrawals, playjl shares necessary transaction data with payment partners including GCash (operated by Globe Fintech Innovations), Maya (operated by Voyager Innovations), and partner banks (BPI, BDO, Metrobank). These providers are regulated by the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) and are bound by their own data protection obligations.
6.2 KYC and Identity Verification Partners
To fulfill identity verification obligations, playjl may transmit your submitted KYC documents and identity data to regulated third-party verification service providers. These providers are contractually prohibited from using your data for any purpose other than the identity verification service they provide to playjl.
6.3 Game Content Providers
Live casino, slot, and other game content on the playjl platform is supplied by licensed third-party game studios and aggregators. These providers may receive a pseudonymous player identifier and game session data for the purpose of game delivery, round resolution, and technical support. They do not receive your full identity data.
6.4 Regulatory and Law Enforcement Authorities
playjl is required by law to share player data with Philippine regulatory and law enforcement authorities in response to lawful requests, court orders, or regulatory investigations.

6.5 Professional Advisors
playjl may share limited personal data with lawyers, auditors, and compliance consultants engaged to provide professional services, subject to strict confidentiality obligations.

Withdrawal of consent for marketing communications will not affect your ability to use the playjl platform or receive transactional and account-related communications such as deposit confirmations, withdrawal status updates, and security notifications. These service communications are sent regardless of marketing preference settings, as they are necessary for the operation of your account.
13 Third-Party Services and Links
The playjl platform is an end-to-end service operated by playjl. This Privacy Policy applies solely to data collected and processed by playjl in connection with your use of playjl.ws and the associated gaming services.
To the extent that playjl relies on third-party service providers (as described in Section 6), those providers operate under their own privacy policies and data protection practices. playjl selects third-party providers that meet adequate data protection standards and enters into data processing agreements with them where applicable under Philippine law.
playjl is not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party payment platforms such as GCash and Maya. When you interact directly with a third-party payment provider's interface to authorize a transaction, your interaction with that provider is governed by their respective privacy policy.
