Six Ways meryph Looks After Your Privacy

A plain-language summary of the most important privacy commitments on the meryph platform. The full details are in the policy document below.

We Collect Only What We Need

meryph collects personal data that is necessary for account operation, identity verification, transaction processing, and platform security. We do not collect data beyond what is required to provide you with a functioning and secure gaming account.

Your Data Is Encrypted

All data transmitted between your device and meryph is encrypted using SSL/TLS. This applies whether you are accessing the platform on mobile data in Manila or on Wi-Fi in Cebu. Sensitive data such as identification documents submitted for KYC is stored with additional access controls.

We Do Not Sell Your Data

meryph does not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties for their own marketing or commercial use. Your data is used to operate your account and support the platform — not as a product to be shared with advertisers or data brokers.

KYC Data Is Used Only for Verification

Documents submitted for KYC identity verification — such as your Philippine government-issued ID — are used solely to confirm your identity and protect your account. They are not shared with third parties outside of legally required verification processes.

You Have Rights Over Your Data

Under applicable Philippine data protection requirements, you have the right to access the personal data meryph holds about you, request corrections, and in certain circumstances request its deletion. These rights can be exercised by contacting meryph support directly.

Philippines Data Standards Apply

meryph operates with Philippine players as its primary user base. Data handling practices are aligned with applicable Philippine data privacy regulations. Your personal information is treated with the same standard of care regardless of which device or location in the Philippines you access the platform from.


By registering an account on meryph, you acknowledge that you have read this Privacy Policy and agree to the collection and use of your personal data as described here. If you do not agree, you should not create an account or use the platform.

1 Introduction

meryph operates an online gaming platform for players in the Philippines, offering sports betting, live casino, slots, and eBingo. In the course of providing these services, meryph collects and processes certain personal information about its registered users.

This Privacy Policy describes what data we collect, why we collect it, how it is used and stored, who it may be shared with, and what rights you have in relation to your own data. We have written this document in plain language so it is easy to understand — not just for legal compliance, but because we think you deserve a clear explanation of how your information is handled.

This policy applies to all personal data collected through the meryph website, mobile browser access, and account management processes.

2 What Personal Data We Collect

meryph collects personal data in the following categories:

Data Category Examples Purpose
Registration Details Full name, date of birth, email address, mobile number Account creation and identity confirmation
Identity Documents Government-issued Philippine ID, selfie photo KYC verification before withdrawals
Financial Data Deposit and withdrawal records, PHP transaction history Payment processing and account balance management
Gaming Activity Bet history, game sessions, wagering amounts Account records, responsible gaming monitoring
Device and Access Data IP address, browser type, device identifier, access timestamps Security monitoring and fraud prevention
Communication Records Support messages, account notifications Customer service and account management

We collect this data directly from you during registration and account use, and automatically from your device when you access the platform.

3 How We Use Your Personal Data

meryph uses the personal data it collects for the following purposes:

  • Creating and managing your meryph account
  • Verifying your identity and age as required for account activation and withdrawals
  • Processing deposits and withdrawals in Philippine Peso
  • Providing access to the gaming platform and game categories
  • Sending account-related communications including OTP codes, transaction confirmations, and security alerts
  • Detecting and preventing fraud, money laundering, and unauthorised account access
  • Supporting responsible gaming monitoring and self-exclusion requests
  • Complying with applicable Philippine legal and regulatory obligations
  • Responding to your support enquiries and resolving account issues

meryph does not use your personal data for profiling for third-party advertising purposes, and does not sell or rent your data to external parties for their commercial use.

4 KYC Identity Verification

Before processing a withdrawal from your meryph account, we are required to verify your identity. This is a standard practice in the online gaming industry and is in place to protect both players and the platform from fraudulent activity and to ensure that withdrawals are directed only to accounts in the verified player's own name.

KYC verification requires you to submit:

  • A valid Philippine government-issued photo ID (such as a passport, PhilSys ID, driver's licence, SSS card, or UMID)
  • A clear selfie photo, which may be compared to the ID document submitted

Documents submitted for KYC are stored securely and accessed only by authorised meryph personnel involved in the verification process. They are retained for as long as your account is active and for a period thereafter as required by applicable regulations. KYC documents are not shared with third parties except where required by law or for the purpose of completing the verification itself through an authorised verification service.

5 Data Sharing and Third Parties

meryph does not sell your personal data to third parties. In the normal course of operating the platform, we work with the following categories of service providers who may process data on our behalf:

  • Payment processors — to facilitate PHP deposits and withdrawals through Philippine banking channels and supported e-wallets
  • Identity verification providers — to assist with KYC document checking where applicable
  • Platform technology providers — hosting, security monitoring, and platform infrastructure services
  • Customer support tools — to manage and track support communications

Any third party that processes data on behalf of meryph is required to handle it in accordance with applicable data privacy standards and only for the specific purpose for which it was shared. meryph remains responsible for how your data is handled by these partners.

meryph may also disclose personal data where required to do so by applicable Philippine law, court order, or regulatory authority. In such cases, we will comply with lawful requirements and, where legally permitted, notify you of any such disclosure.

6 Security Measures

meryph applies technical and operational security measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, loss, alteration, or disclosure. These include:

  • SSL/TLS encryption on all data transmitted between your device and the meryph platform
  • OTP (one-time password) authentication for account login and sensitive account actions
  • Access controls limiting who within the meryph team can view sensitive account data
  • Monitoring systems for unusual account activity, including login anomalies and transaction patterns
  • Secure storage of KYC documents with restricted access

While meryph takes reasonable steps to protect your data, no internet-based service can guarantee absolute security. You also play a role in keeping your account safe — use a strong, unique password, enable OTP verification, and do not share your login credentials with anyone. If you suspect your account has been accessed without your authorisation, contact meryph support immediately.

7 How Long We Keep Your Data

meryph retains your personal data for as long as your account is active and for a period thereafter as required to comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. The specific retention period varies depending on the type of data:

  • Account registration data is retained for the duration of your account and for a minimum period thereafter as required by applicable Philippine regulations
  • Transaction records are retained in accordance with financial record-keeping requirements
  • KYC documents are retained for the period required under applicable identity verification and anti-money laundering obligations
  • Support communications are retained for a reasonable period to enable follow-up on unresolved issues

When personal data is no longer required for its original purpose and no legal obligation requires its continued retention, meryph will delete or anonymise it.

8 Cookies and Browser Data

meryph uses cookies and similar browser-based technologies to support the operation of the platform. These include:

  • Session cookies — to maintain your login state while you are using the platform, so you do not have to log in repeatedly as you navigate between sections
  • Security cookies — to support fraud detection and account authentication processes
  • Functional cookies — to remember your preferences and platform settings within a session

meryph does not use third-party advertising or tracking cookies. Your browser settings allow you to manage or disable cookies, though disabling certain cookies may affect how the meryph platform functions — particularly session management and login persistence.

9 Your Data Rights

As a player based in the Philippines, you have rights in relation to your personal data under applicable Philippine data privacy law. meryph supports and respects these rights:

Right to Access

You can request a summary of the personal data meryph holds about you. We will respond to verified access requests within a reasonable timeframe.

Right to Correction

If any of your personal data on file is inaccurate or outdated, you can request that it be corrected through your account settings or by contacting support.

Right to Deletion

In certain circumstances, you may request the deletion of your personal data. Deletion requests are subject to any legal or regulatory retention obligations that may apply.

Right to Object

You have the right to object to certain uses of your personal data. Where your objection is valid and no overriding legal basis applies, meryph will stop the processing you have objected to.

To exercise any of these rights, contact meryph support at [email protected]. We may need to verify your identity before processing a data rights request. We aim to respond to all requests within a reasonable period and will inform you if additional time is needed.

10 Minors

meryph is strictly for players aged 21 and above. The platform does not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under the age of 21. If meryph becomes aware that personal data has been collected from a minor, that account will be closed and the data deleted in accordance with applicable requirements.

If you believe a minor has registered on meryph, please contact support at [email protected] so the matter can be investigated and addressed promptly.

11 Changes to This Privacy Policy

meryph may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the platform, applicable law, or data handling practices. When material changes are made, registered players will be notified through the platform or via their registered contact details where reasonably practicable.

The current version of this policy is always available on this page. We recommend reviewing it periodically, particularly when you make significant account changes or conduct large transactions. Continued use of meryph following notification of an updated policy constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
