G Panalo Full Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how G Panalo ("we," "our," or "the platform") collects, uses, stores, and protects the personal information you provide when you access or use our website at gpanalo.best. By registering an account or using any of our services, you confirm that you have read and understood this G Panalo privacy policy.
We built G Panalo for Filipino players who want a safe, reliable, and enjoyable online gaming experience. Keeping your privacy intact is non-negotiable — we treat your data the way we'd want our own handled.
1. Information We Collect
To provide you with our services, G Panalo collects the following types of personal information:
- Registration Data: Full name, date of birth, email address, mobile number, and a username you choose.
- Identity Verification: Government-issued ID (such as a Philippine postal ID, driver's license, or passport) when required for KYC compliance.
- Financial Data: GCash mobile number, Maya account details, BDO/BPI/UnionBank account numbers, or Visa/Mastercard details used for deposits and withdrawals. We do not store full card numbers — only tokenised references.
- Device and Technical Data: IP address, browser type, operating system, screen resolution, and cookies placed on your device during your session.
- Gameplay Data: Your betting history, game preferences, session duration, and transaction logs within the G Panalo platform.
- Communications: Messages you send to our customer support team, survey responses, and feedback you voluntarily submit.
We only collect information that is genuinely needed to run the platform safely and fairly. We do not ask for data we don't need.
2. How G Panalo Uses Your Information
Your personal data is used for the following specific purposes:
- To create and manage your G Panalo account and verify your identity.
- To process deposits, withdrawals, and internal transfers through your chosen payment method (GCash, Maya, GrabPay, Coins.ph, InstaPay/PESONet, or bank transfer).
- To detect and prevent fraud, money laundering, underage gambling, and other prohibited activities.
- To personalise your in-platform experience — for example, showing game recommendations based on what you enjoy playing.
- To send you transactional notifications (deposit confirmations, withdrawal updates, security alerts).
- To send promotional offers and bonuses if you have opted in to marketing communications.
- To comply with the legal and regulatory obligations that apply to licensed online gaming operators in the Philippines.
- To improve our platform, fix bugs, and develop new features based on aggregated, anonymised usage data.
3. Legal Basis for Processing
G Panalo processes your personal data on one or more of the following legal bases under the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act 10173):
- Contract performance: Processing is necessary to deliver the service you've signed up for.
- Legal obligation: We are required by law to collect and retain certain data for anti-money laundering and responsible gaming compliance.
- Legitimate interests: We process certain data to protect the security of the platform and our users.
- Consent: For marketing communications, we rely on your explicit opt-in consent, which you can withdraw at any time.
4. How Long We Keep Your Data
We keep your personal data for as long as your G Panalo account is active, plus an additional period as required by law. Specifically:
- Account and identity data: retained for a minimum of 5 years after account closure, as required by anti-money laundering regulations.
- Transaction records: retained for 5 years from the date of the transaction.
- Marketing preferences: retained until you withdraw consent or request deletion.
- Customer support records: retained for 3 years from the last interaction.
Once the applicable retention period expires, your data is securely deleted or anonymised so it can no longer identify you.
5. Sharing Your Information
G Panalo does not sell your personal data to third parties, full stop. We may share limited data with trusted service providers who help us operate the platform — but only under strict contractual agreements that prohibit them from using your data for any other purpose. These include:
- Payment processors and e-wallet providers (for GCash, Maya, GrabPay, and bank transactions).
- Identity verification and KYC service providers.
- Cloud hosting and data storage providers.
- Fraud prevention and cybersecurity partners.
- Customer support software providers.
We may also disclose your data to government regulators, law enforcement agencies, or courts when required by Philippine law or a valid legal order. In such cases, we will only provide the minimum information required and, where legally permitted, notify you.
6. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
G Panalo uses cookies and similar technologies to keep the platform running smoothly and to understand how players use our site. Here's a plain-language breakdown of what we use:
- Strictly necessary cookies: These keep you logged in and enable core platform functions. You cannot opt out of these without losing access to the service.
- Performance cookies: These help us understand which pages load slowly, which games crash, and how players navigate the site — all in anonymised form.
- Preference cookies: These remember your language, display settings, and other personal preferences.
- Marketing cookies: These are used to show you relevant promotions on the G Panalo platform. You can opt out via your account settings.
Most browsers let you block or delete cookies through their settings. Note that blocking essential cookies will affect your ability to use the platform.

9. Children's Privacy
G Panalo is strictly an 18+ platform. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under the age of 18. If you believe a minor has registered on our platform, please contact us immediately at privacy@gpanalo.best and we will investigate and delete the account promptly.
Age verification is part of our standard KYC process. Any account found to belong to a minor will be permanently suspended and any funds will be returned per applicable regulations.
