mw55 Privacy Policy
At mw55, your personal data is handled with the same care we apply to your account funds. This Privacy Policy explains exactly what information we collect, why we collect it, how it is used, and the rights you hold as an mw55 player under Philippine data protection law.
Last updated: January 2026How mw55 Protects Your Data
Six core principles that guide how mw55 handles personal information collected from Filipino players across the platform.
Encrypted at Every Step
All personal data transmitted between your device and mw55 is protected by 256-bit SSL encryption — the same standard used by Philippine banks. Whether you're depositing via GCash or updating your profile, your data travels over a fully encrypted connection.
Never Sold to Third Parties
mw55 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to any commercial third party. Your data is used exclusively to operate your account, process transactions, and comply with PAGCOR regulatory obligations — nothing else.
You Control Your Data
As an mw55 player, you have the right to access, correct, or request deletion of your personal data at any time. These rights are protected under the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act 10173) and are fully honoured by mw55.
Minimal Data Collection
mw55 collects only the data that is strictly necessary for account management, identity verification, transaction processing, and regulatory compliance. We don't collect data for the sake of it — every data point has a defined and legitimate purpose.
PAGCOR & DPA Compliant
mw55 operates under PAGCOR licensing requirements and is fully compliant with the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012. Our data handling practices are reviewed regularly to ensure ongoing compliance with all applicable NPC (National Privacy Commission) guidelines.
Clear Retention Limits
Your personal data is retained only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes outlined in this policy, or as required by PAGCOR regulations and Philippine law. Once data is no longer needed, it is securely deleted or anonymised in accordance with NPC guidelines.
1 Introduction
This Privacy Policy ("Policy") describes how mw55 ("mw55", "we", "us", "our") collects, uses, stores, and protects personal information obtained from individuals ("you", "Player", "User") who access or use the mw55 online gaming platform at mw55.bet.
mw55 is committed to protecting the privacy and personal data of all users in accordance with Republic Act No. 10173, also known as the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012 (DPA), its Implementing Rules and Regulations (IRR), and all applicable issuances of the National Privacy Commission (NPC). By registering an account or continuing to use the mw55 platform, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy.

Our designated Data Protection Officer (DPO) is responsible for overseeing compliance with the Philippine Data Privacy Act and can be contacted via the details provided in Section 14 of this Policy.
