The phtaya 16 Platform is strictly intended for persons aged 21 years and above, in accordance with Philippine gaming regulations. phtaya 16 does not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under the age of 21.

Where such transfers occur, phtaya 16 ensures that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your personal data, including contractual clauses that require the recipient to apply data protection standards equivalent to those required under RA 10173. phtaya 16 will not transfer your personal data to a jurisdiction that does not provide an adequate level of data protection without your explicit consent or a lawful basis under Philippine law.
