7.2 Right to Correction

If you believe any personal information we hold about you is inaccurate, incomplete, or outdated, you have the right to request correction or update of that information. You can update most account information directly through your account settings or by contacting customer support for assistance.

7.3 Right to Erasure

You may request deletion of your personal information under certain circumstances, including when the data is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, when you withdraw consent (where consent was the basis for processing), or when processing is unlawful. Please note that we may be required to retain certain information for legal, regulatory, or legitimate business purposes even after receiving a deletion request.

7.4 Right to Object and Restrict Processing

You have the right to object to processing of your personal information for direct marketing purposes at any time.

7.5 Right to Data Portability

You have the right to receive your personal information in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format and to transmit that data to another service provider without hindrance from beet88, where technically feasible.

7.6 Right to Withdraw Consent

Where we process your personal information based on consent, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before withdrawal. You can manage your marketing preferences and consent settings through your account dashboard.

8. Data Retention

beet88 retains your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected and to comply with legal, regulatory, accounting, and reporting obligations. Specific retention periods vary depending on the type of information and applicable legal requirements:

• Account Information: Maintained throughout the duration of your active account relationship and for five (5) years after account closure to comply with PAGCOR recordkeeping requirements and anti-money laundering regulations

• Marketing Data: Retained until you withdraw consent or request deletion, whichever occurs first

After the applicable retention period expires, we securely delete or anonymize your personal information in accordance with our data retention schedule and applicable laws. Even after deletion from active systems, some information may persist in backup archives for a limited additional period before permanent destruction.

9. International Data Transfers

Your personal information is primarily processed and stored on servers located within the Philippines. However, some of our third-party service providers and business partners may be located in other countries, which may result in your data being transferred to, stored in, or accessed from jurisdictions outside the Philippines. When we transfer personal information internationally, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your data, including contractual commitments requiring third parties to provide equivalent levels of data protection as required under Philippine law and technical security measures to protect data in transit and at rest.
