swerteplus Privacy Policy — How We Protect Your Personal Data
At swerteplus, your privacy matters as much as your gaming experience. This Privacy Policy explains what personal information we collect from players in the Philippines, how we use and protect it, and what rights you have over your own data. Please read this document carefully before registering or using any part of the platform.
1. Information We Collect
Account and Identity Information
When you register an account on swerteplus, we collect the personal information you provide during the sign-up process, including your full legal name, date of birth, email address, mobile number, and any government-issued ID details required for identity verification. This information is necessary to create and manage your account, comply with applicable age verification requirements, and fulfil our obligations under Philippine gaming regulations. We may also collect additional information if you voluntarily update your profile or contact our support team. All identity information you submit is used solely for the purposes described in this policy and is never sold to advertisers or marketing companies. Keeping your account information accurate and current helps us serve you better and process any withdrawal requests without unnecessary delays.
Device, Browser, and Usage Data
When you access swerteplus through a mobile browser, tablet, or desktop device, we automatically collect certain technical data about your device and browsing session. This includes your IP address, device type and model, operating system version, browser type, screen resolution, time zone, and the pages or features you interact with on the platform. We also collect session data such as login timestamps, session duration, betting history, game preferences, and navigation patterns within the platform. This technical information helps us diagnose performance issues, optimise the mobile experience for players in the Philippines, detect unusual or potentially fraudulent account activity, and improve overall platform stability. We do not use device data to build advertising profiles or share it with unrelated third parties.
Payment and Transaction Information
To process deposits and withdrawals in Philippine Peso (₱ PHP), we collect relevant transaction details including deposit amounts, withdrawal requests, payment method type, and transaction reference numbers associated with your preferred local payment channel. We do not store full payment card numbers or complete e-wallet credentials on our servers; instead, transactions are handled through secure payment processing channels that apply their own data protection standards. Your payment history within the platform is retained as part of your account record for dispute resolution, regulatory compliance, and audit purposes. All financial data is handled with the same level of care and security as your identity information. If you have questions about a specific transaction, our support team can assist you by referencing the transaction record associated with your account.
2. How We Use Your Information
swerteplus uses the personal information we collect strictly for the purposes of operating and improving the platform, fulfilling our legal and regulatory obligations, and providing a safe and enjoyable gaming experience for players across the Philippines. The primary uses of your data include: verifying your identity and age at registration, processing deposits and withdrawals in Philippine Peso, delivering platform notifications and account-related communications, and resolving any disputes or support requests you raise with our team. We do not use your personal data for unsolicited marketing communications without your explicit consent, and we do not build or sell advertising profiles based on your gaming behaviour.
In addition to core account operations, we use aggregated and anonymised usage data to analyse how players interact with the sportsbook, slot online, and live casino sections of the platform. This analysis helps our product and engineering teams identify areas for improvement, fix technical issues, and prioritise features that matter most to our Philippine player base. Aggregated data of this kind does not identify any individual player and is never shared in a form that could be linked back to you personally. We may also use your contact information to send you important service announcements, such as changes to these policies, scheduled maintenance notices, or security alerts related to your account. These communications are considered essential service messages and are not subject to marketing opt-out controls, though you may adjust notification preferences for non-essential messages through your account settings.
3. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
swerteplus uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to provide core platform functionality, remember your session preferences, and analyse how the platform is used. Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit the platform; they allow us to keep you logged in between sessions, remember your language and display preferences, and ensure that the sportsbook and live casino features load correctly on your mobile browser. Without essential cookies, certain parts of the platform may not function as intended, and your login session may not persist correctly across page loads.
In addition to strictly necessary cookies, we may use analytical cookies to understand how players navigate the platform, which pages are visited most frequently, and where technical errors occur. These analytical cookies collect information in aggregate and do not identify you personally. We do not use third-party advertising cookies or permit ad networks to set tracking cookies through the swerteplus platform. If you wish to manage or disable cookies, you can adjust your browser settings to block or delete cookies at any time; however, please be aware that disabling essential cookies may affect your ability to log in and use the platform normally. For the best mobile experience on the swerteplus platform in the Philippines, we recommend keeping essential cookies enabled in your browser.
4. Data Storage and Security
All personal data collected by swerteplus is stored on secure servers that employ industry-standard encryption, access controls, and regular security audits to protect against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. Data transmitted between your device and the swerteplus platform is protected using Transport Layer Security (TLS) encryption, which ensures that your account credentials, payment information, and browsing activity cannot be intercepted by third parties during transmission. We apply the principle of least privilege to our internal systems, meaning that only authorised personnel whose roles require access to specific categories of personal data are permitted to view or process it.
We retain your personal data for as long as your account remains active and for a reasonable period thereafter as required by applicable laws, regulatory obligations, or legitimate business purposes such as dispute resolution and fraud prevention. When your data is no longer needed for these purposes, it is securely deleted or anonymised in accordance with our internal data retention schedule. While we take every reasonable precaution to safeguard your information, no online platform can guarantee absolute security against all possible threats. If you suspect that your account has been compromised or that your personal data has been accessed without authorisation, please contact our support team immediately so that we can investigate and take appropriate remedial action. We also encourage all players to use strong, unique passwords and to log out of their accounts after each session, particularly when accessing the platform from a shared or public device.
5. Sharing Data with Third Parties
swerteplus does not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties for their own marketing or commercial purposes. We may share limited categories of your data with carefully selected service providers who assist us in operating the platform, including payment processing partners who handle Philippine Peso transactions, identity verification services used for KYC compliance, and technical infrastructure providers who host and maintain platform systems. Each of these service providers is contractually required to handle your data in accordance with applicable data protection standards and is prohibited from using your information for any purpose other than the specific service they provide to swerteplus.
In certain circumstances, we may be required to disclose personal information to regulatory authorities, law enforcement agencies, or other government bodies in the Philippines if we receive a lawful request, court order, or are otherwise obligated to do so under applicable law. We will only disclose the minimum amount of information necessary to comply with such legal obligations and, where permitted, will endeavour to notify you of any such disclosure. We do not share your personal data with other online gaming platforms, advertisers, or data brokers under any circumstances. If we ever intend to change our data-sharing practices in a material way, we will update this Privacy Policy and notify registered players through the platform before any such change takes effect.
6. Your Rights as a User
As a registered player on the swerteplus platform, you have the right to access the personal information we hold about you, request corrections to any inaccurate or outdated data, and, in certain circumstances, request the deletion of your personal data. To exercise any of these rights, you may contact our support team directly and we will respond to your request within a reasonable timeframe. When you request access to your data, we will provide you with a summary of the personal information associated with your account, the purposes for which it is being used, and the categories of any third parties with whom it has been shared.
If you believe that any personal information we hold about you is incorrect, incomplete, or out of date, you can request a correction and we will update your records accordingly after verifying your identity. The right to deletion — sometimes called the "right to be forgotten" — applies in situations where your data is no longer necessary for the purposes it was collected, or where you withdraw consent and there is no other lawful basis for continued processing. Please note that certain data may need to be retained even after a deletion request is processed, for example to comply with anti-money laundering regulations or resolve outstanding disputes. If you have concerns about how your data is being handled, you also have the right to raise a complaint with the appropriate data protection or regulatory authority in the Philippines. We are committed to working with you to resolve any privacy-related concerns in a transparent and timely manner.
7. Minor Protection
The swerteplus platform is strictly intended for adults aged 18 years and above. We do not knowingly collect, store, or process personal information from individuals under the age of 18, and we take active steps to prevent minors from registering or accessing the platform. As part of our registration process, all users are required to confirm that they meet the minimum age requirement, and we reserve the right to request government-issued identification documents at any point to verify a user's age and identity. If we become aware that personal data has been collected from a minor, we will take immediate action to delete that information and close the associated account.
Parents and guardians who believe that a minor in their care has registered on the swerteplus platform or has had their personal information collected without appropriate consent are encouraged to contact our support team as soon as possible. We will investigate such reports promptly and take all necessary steps to protect the minor's privacy and ensure their account is removed from the platform. Our commitment to responsible gaming and the protection of vulnerable individuals — including minors — is a core part of how we operate. For more information about our responsible gaming measures and parental controls, please visit the Responsible Gaming page.
8. Policy Updates and Contact Information
swerteplus reserves the right to update or revise this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in our data practices, applicable laws, regulatory requirements, or the features and services available on the platform. When material changes are made to this policy, the effective date at the top of the page will be updated, and we will notify registered players through an in-platform announcement or account notification. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically to stay informed about how we collect, use, and protect your personal information. Your continued use of the platform after a revised policy has been published constitutes your acceptance of the updated terms.
