amjil Privacy Policy

1 Introduction & Scope

amjil ("we," "us," "our") is committed to protecting the privacy and security of personal information belonging to its Members and prospective Members ("you," "your") in full compliance with the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act 10173, hereinafter "DPA") and its Implementing Rules and Regulations (IRR).

This Privacy Policy governs the collection, use, storage, sharing, and disposal of personal data processed by amjil in connection with the operation of the amjil online gaming and sports betting platform accessible at amjil.org.

This policy does not apply to third-party websites, payment processors, or game providers whose links or interfaces may appear within the amjil platform. Those parties operate under their own privacy policies and amjil accepts no responsibility for their data practices.
