kpvip Privacy Policy
Your privacy matters to us. This Privacy Policy explains exactly how kpvip collects, stores, processes, and protects the personal information of every registered player on our Philippine online gaming platform. We are fully committed to your rights under the Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act No. 10173).
How kpvip Handles Your Data
Six core commitments that define the kpvip approach to data privacy and player information security.
kpvip practices data minimisation — we only collect personal information that is necessary for account registration, identity verification, transaction processing, and legal compliance. We do not harvest data for sale to third parties.
All personal data held by kpvip is protected with AES-256 encryption at rest and TLS 1.3 encryption in transit. Our infrastructure is hosted on ISO 27001-certified data centres with strict access control and regular third-party security audits.
kpvip shares data only with trusted service providers operating under strict data processing agreements — including our payment processors (GCash, PayMaya, BPI, BDO, Metrobank), KYC verification partners, and game software providers. We never sell your data.
Under RA 10173, you have the right to access, correct, delete, and object to the processing of your personal information. kpvip provides simple tools and a dedicated support channel so you can exercise these rights at any time.
kpvip retains player data only for as long as required by law or legitimate business need. Account data is retained for a minimum of five years post-closure to comply with Philippine AML regulations. After this period, data is securely deleted or anonymised.
In the unlikely event of a personal data breach that poses a real risk to your rights and freedoms, kpvip will notify the National Privacy Commission (NPC) within 72 hours and affected players within a reasonable timeframe, as required by Philippine law.

Data Security
kpvip implements a comprehensive suite of technical and organisational security measures to protect your Personal Data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, destruction, alteration, or disclosure. Our key security measures include:
- AES-256 encryption for Personal Data at rest across all kpvip database systems;

While kpvip takes every reasonable measure to protect your data, no system is completely immune to security risk. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your own Account credentials, and kpvip strongly recommends enabling 2FA on your Account and using a unique, strong password.
Data Retention
kpvip retains your Personal Data for as long as is necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy or as required by applicable Philippine law. The following retention schedules apply:
- Account Data and KYC Documents: Retained for a minimum of five (5) years following Account closure, in compliance with Philippine AML obligations under RA 9160 as amended;

Following the expiry of applicable retention periods, Personal Data is either securely deleted using cryptographic erasure or irreversibly anonymised so that it can no longer be attributed to you. kpvip conducts periodic data retention reviews to ensure that Personal Data is not held beyond its required retention period.
International Data Transfers
kpvip operates primarily within the Philippines and processes the majority of Personal Data on infrastructure located within or serving the Philippine market. However, certain third-party service providers engaged by kpvip — including cloud infrastructure providers and game software partners — may process Personal Data in jurisdictions outside the Philippines.
Where Personal Data is transferred outside the Philippines, kpvip ensures that adequate safeguards are in place to protect that data in a manner consistent with RA 10173 and NPC guidelines. These safeguards may include:
- Standard contractual clauses approved or recognised by the NPC incorporated into data processing agreements with international service providers;
- Transfers to jurisdictions recognised by the NPC as providing an adequate level of data protection;
- Binding corporate rules where the recipient is part of a group of companies with approved intra-group data transfer mechanisms.
You may request information about the specific safeguards in place for any international transfer of your Personal Data by contacting our DPO at [email protected].
Children's Privacy
Age Restriction — Strictly 21+ Only: The kpvip Platform is strictly for adults aged 21 years and older in accordance with Philippine responsible gaming standards. kpvip does not knowingly collect, process, or retain any Personal Data from persons under the age of 21.
kpvip enforces age verification as a mandatory step in the Account registration process. Any Account subsequently identified as belonging to a person under 21 years of age will be immediately closed, all balances forfeited, and all associated Personal Data deleted in accordance with our data retention procedures.
If you are a parent or guardian and believe that your child has registered an Account on the kpvip Platform, please contact us immediately at [email protected] with the subject line "UNDERAGE ACCOUNT REPORT." We will investigate and take appropriate action within 48 hours of notification.
Marketing Communications
kpvip may send you promotional communications about bonuses, new game releases, tournaments, and special offers relevant to your interests as a kpvip player. We will only send you marketing communications where you have explicitly opted in to receive them, either during registration or subsequently through your Account communication preferences.
Marketing communications from kpvip may be delivered via:
- SMS to your registered Philippine mobile number;
- Email to your registered email address;
- Push notifications through the kpvip mobile web application (where enabled on your device).
You may withdraw your consent to receive marketing communications at any time by updating your communication preferences in Account Settings or by contacting support at [email protected] with the subject line "UNSUBSCRIBE." Withdrawal of consent does not affect transactional communications — kpvip will continue to send you account security alerts, transaction confirmations, and service notifications that are necessary for Account operation regardless of your marketing preferences.
