The kimgph platform uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your gaming experience, maintain session continuity, and gather analytical data about platform usage. By continuing to use the kimgph platform with cookies enabled in your browser, you consent to our use of cookies as described below.

10.1 Types of Cookies Used

• Strictly Necessary Cookies: Required for the kimgph platform to function correctly. These include session authentication cookies, security tokens, and cookies that maintain your login state. These cannot be disabled without impairing your ability to use the platform;
• Functional Cookies: Enable personalised features such as remembering your language preferences, display settings, and recently played games;
• Analytical Cookies: Used to understand how players use the kimgph platform — which games are most popular, how long sessions typically last, and where users encounter difficulties — so that we can improve platform design and performance;
• Security Cookies: Used to detect and prevent fraudulent activity, unauthorized access attempts, and suspicious usage patterns.

10.2 Managing Cookies

You may control and delete cookies through your browser settings. Instructions for managing cookies are available in your browser's help documentation. Please note that disabling strictly necessary cookies will prevent you from logging into your kimgph account and using platform features that require authentication.

The kimgph platform integrates with third-party payment processors including GCash and PayMaya, as well as licensed game content providers. Each of these third parties operates under its own privacy policy and data protection framework. When you initiate a GCash or PayMaya transaction through kimgph, that transaction is also governed by the relevant payment provider's privacy policy.

kimgph is not responsible for the data processing practices of third-party service providers beyond the contractual data protection obligations we impose on them as described in Section 6.1 of this Privacy Policy. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party services you interact with through the kimgph platform.

The kimgph platform is strictly intended for use by individuals who are twenty-one (21) years of age or older, in accordance with PAGCOR regulations governing online gaming in the Philippines. kimgph does not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under the age of 21.

Age verification is a mandatory component of the kimgph registration and KYC process. If kimgph becomes aware that personal data has been collected from an individual who is under 21 years of age, the associated account will be immediately suspended, all funds will be returned to the original payment source, and the personal data will be deleted as promptly as applicable legal obligations permit.

kimgph's primary operations and data storage infrastructure are based within or closely aligned with the Philippines. In certain circumstances — such as where game content providers, cloud infrastructure providers, or security service providers operate data centres outside of the Philippines — your personal data may be transferred to or processed in jurisdictions outside the Republic.

Where such transfers occur, kimgph ensures that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your personal data to a standard equivalent to Philippine data protection requirements, including through contractual data protection clauses with the relevant service providers. Any transfer of data outside the Philippines is conducted in accordance with the cross-border transfer provisions of the Data Privacy Act of 2012 and related NPC issuances.

kimgph reserves the right to update or modify this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in our data processing practices, platform features, applicable law, or PAGCOR regulatory requirements. The most current version of this Privacy Policy will always be available on this page, and the "Last Updated" date at the top of the document will reflect the date of the most recent revision.

Where changes to this Privacy Policy are material — for example, where we introduce a new category of data processing or a new sharing arrangement — kimgph will notify you by email to your registered address or through a prominent in-platform notification prior to the change taking effect. Your continued use of the kimgph platform after the effective date of any revised Privacy Policy constitutes your acceptance of the updated terms.

For any questions, concerns, or requests relating to this Privacy Policy or the processing of your personal data by kimgph, please contact our Data Protection Officer through the following channel:

If you are not satisfied with kimgph's response to your data privacy concern, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the National Privacy Commission of the Philippines, which oversees enforcement of the Data Privacy Act of 2012 and serves as the competent supervisory authority for data protection matters in the Philippines.
