starlight88 Privacy Policy – How Your Data Is Collected and Protected
This Privacy Policy explains how starlight88 collects, uses, stores, and protects the personal information of members registered on our platform in the Philippines. We are committed to handling your data with transparency, care, and full respect for your rights as a user. By registering an account and using any part of the starlight88 platform, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this policy. We encourage you to review this page periodically, as we may update it from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or applicable data protection requirements. If you have questions about how your information is handled, our FAQ page is a good starting point.
1. Information We Collect
When you register and use the starlight88 platform, we collect several categories of personal information to enable your account, process transactions, and provide a secure gaming experience tailored to Philippines members. The types of information we may collect include:
- Account information: Your full legal name, date of birth, email address, mobile number, and a password you create at registration. This information is required to verify your identity and maintain your account in good standing.
- Payment and transaction data: Details related to deposits and withdrawals made in Philippine Peso (PHP), including payment method identifiers, transaction amounts, timestamps, and reference numbers. We do not store full payment card numbers on our servers.
- Device and browser data: Technical information such as your IP address, browser type and version, operating system, device model, screen resolution, and mobile carrier. This data helps us optimise the platform for your device and detect suspicious activity.
- Usage data: Records of your activity on the platform, including pages visited, games accessed, session duration, click patterns, and in-game actions. This data is used for platform improvement, fraud prevention, and responsible gaming monitoring.
- Cookies and tracking data: Information collected through cookies and similar tracking technologies as described in Section 3 of this policy.
- Communications data: Records of your interactions with our support team, including messages, inquiries, and any documents submitted for identity or age verification purposes.
We collect only the information that is necessary for the purposes described in this policy. You are responsible for ensuring that all information you provide to starlight88 is accurate, complete, and kept up to date. Providing false or misleading information may result in account suspension or closure in line with our Terms and Conditions.
2. How We Use Your Information
starlight88 uses the personal information we collect for clearly defined purposes, all of which are necessary to operate the platform, comply with regulatory requirements, and deliver a safe and enjoyable experience for our Philippines members. We do not use your information for any purpose beyond what is described here without first obtaining your consent where required by law.
The primary purposes for which we use your data include: verifying your identity and age to confirm eligibility before account activation; processing PHP deposits and withdrawals through supported payment channels; detecting and preventing fraud, money laundering, and other prohibited activity; maintaining the technical performance and security of the platform; personalising your experience based on device type, game preferences, and session history; sending account-related communications such as transaction confirmations, security alerts, and policy updates; and meeting our obligations under applicable Philippine laws and gaming regulations. We may also use aggregated, anonymised usage data to analyse trends and improve the features available on the platform, but this anonymised data cannot be used to identify you individually. If you contact our support team, the information you provide will be used to resolve your inquiry and to improve our service quality over time.
3. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
starlight88 uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to make the platform function correctly, remember your preferences, and gather analytics data that helps us improve your experience. A cookie is a small text file placed on your device when you visit our platform; it does not contain executable code and cannot access other files on your device. We use the following categories of cookies:
- Essential cookies: Required for the platform to function. They manage your login session, maintain security tokens, and remember your language or display settings. These cookies cannot be disabled without affecting platform functionality.
- Analytics cookies: Help us understand how members navigate the platform — which pages are visited most, where users encounter difficulties, and how long sessions last. This data is aggregated and used to improve the platform's layout and performance.
- Functional cookies: Remember your preferences such as game category selections, notification settings, and previously entered account details (excluding passwords) to speed up your next visit.
- Security cookies: Detect abnormal activity such as multiple failed login attempts, unusual transaction patterns, or access from unrecognised devices, helping us protect your account from unauthorised access.
Most browsers allow you to manage or delete cookies through their settings menu. Please note that disabling essential cookies may prevent some features of the starlight88 platform from working correctly on your mobile browser. We do not use third-party advertising cookies or sell cookie data to any external marketing networks. If you continue using the platform after being presented with our cookie notice, you are consenting to our use of cookies as described in this policy.
4. Data Storage and Security
Your personal data is stored on secure servers that are protected by industry-standard technical and organisational security measures. starlight88 applies encryption protocols for data in transit and at rest, ensuring that sensitive account and payment information transmitted between your device and our platform is protected against interception. Access to personal data within our organisation is restricted on a strict need-to-know basis, and all staff with access to member data are bound by confidentiality obligations.
We retain your personal data for as long as your account remains active and for a period after closure as required by applicable Philippine anti-money laundering laws, tax regulations, and gaming compliance obligations. The specific retention period may vary depending on the category of data and the legal basis for retaining it, but we do not keep personal data longer than is necessary for the stated purpose. When data is no longer required, it is securely deleted or anonymised so that it can no longer be linked to you as an individual. While we take every reasonable precaution to safeguard your information, no online platform can guarantee absolute security, and you are also responsible for keeping your login credentials confidential and for notifying us immediately if you suspect unauthorised access to your account.
5. Sharing Data with Third Parties
starlight88 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties for their own marketing or commercial purposes. We share your data only in the limited circumstances described below, and only to the extent necessary to fulfil the relevant purpose. Any third party that receives your data on our behalf is contractually required to keep it confidential and to use it solely for the purpose for which it was shared.
We may share your information with: payment service providers that process PHP deposits and withdrawals on behalf of members in the Philippines; identity and age verification services used to confirm eligibility during account registration; technology service providers who support the operation of our platform infrastructure, security systems, or customer support tools; and regulatory bodies, law enforcement agencies, or courts in the Philippines when we are required to disclose information by law, court order, or other legal obligation. In the event of a business transfer, merger, or acquisition, member data may be transferred to the acquiring entity, subject to the same privacy protections described in this policy. We do not share your data with any third-party advertising or analytics platforms that could use it to target you with external marketing.
6. Your Rights Over Your Personal Data
As a member of starlight88 and a resident of the Philippines, you have meaningful rights over your personal data, and we are committed to honouring those rights in a timely and transparent manner. You may exercise any of the following rights by contacting our support team through the details provided at the end of this policy:
- Right of access: You may request a copy of the personal data we hold about you, along with information about how it is being used and with whom it has been shared.
- Right to correction: If any of the personal information we hold is inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to request that it be corrected without undue delay.
- Right to deletion: You may request that we delete your personal data where it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, subject to any legal obligations that require us to retain certain records.
- Right to restrict processing: In certain circumstances, you may ask us to limit the way we use your data while a dispute or request is being resolved.
- Right to data portability: Where technically feasible and permitted by law, you may request a copy of your data in a structured, commonly used format.
We will respond to all valid data rights requests within a reasonable timeframe and will always explain our reasoning if we are unable to fulfil a request in full. Please note that some requests — particularly for deletion — may be limited where retention is required by Philippine law or gaming regulations. If you believe your rights have not been respected, you may escalate your concern to the relevant data protection authority in the Philippines.
7. Minor Protection and Age Verification
starlight88 is strictly intended for adults aged 18 years and above, in accordance with Philippine gaming regulations. We do not knowingly collect or process personal data from individuals under the age of 18. During registration, all applicants are required to confirm their date of birth and to warrant that they meet the minimum age requirement. Where we have reasonable grounds to suspect that a member may be under the legal age, we will suspend the account and request supporting identity documentation before allowing any further activity.
If a parent or guardian believes that a minor has registered an account on the starlight88 platform without authorisation, they should contact our support team immediately. We will investigate the matter promptly and, if a minor is confirmed to have registered, we will close the account and ensure that any funds associated with it are handled appropriately in accordance with our account closure procedures. We also encourage parents and guardians to make use of parental control tools available on mobile devices and browsers to restrict access to gaming platforms. For more information on safe and responsible gaming practices, including self-exclusion tools available to adult members, please visit the Responsible Gaming page.
