10. Your Privacy Rights
Under the Philippine Data Privacy Act (RA 10173), you have the following rights with respect to your personal data held by yyjl:
To exercise any of the above rights, please contact yyjl's Data Protection Officer via live chat or by emailing [email protected] with the subject line "Data Privacy Request". yyjl will respond to all valid requests within 15 business days in accordance with NPC guidelines. We may need to verify your identity before processing your request.
11. Minors & Age Gating
yyjl is strictly intended for individuals who are 21 years of age or older. We do not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under the age of 21. Age verification is a mandatory step in the yyjl registration and KYC process.
If yyjl becomes aware that personal data has been collected from an individual under the age of 21 — whether through a parent's report, our own detection, or any other means — we will immediately suspend the relevant account, delete all associated personal data, and return any real-money balance to the originating payment source.
If you are a parent or guardian and believe that a minor may have registered on yyjl, please contact us immediately via live chat or at [email protected] so we can take swift action.
12. International Data Transfers
yyjl's primary servers and data storage facilities are located within or in jurisdictions that provide adequate data protection standards comparable to those required under RA 10173. In limited circumstances — for example, where a game software provider or KYC partner operates from outside the Philippines — your data may be transferred to and processed in another country.
Where such transfers occur, yyjl ensures that appropriate safeguards are in place, including:
- Standard contractual clauses or data processing agreements that impose obligations on the recipient equivalent to those under RA 10173;
- Transfer only to jurisdictions determined by the NPC to offer an adequate level of data protection, or where specific derogations apply under the IRR;
- Where required, notifying the NPC of cross-border data transfers in accordance with NPC Circular No. 16-01.
13. Changes to This Privacy Policy
yyjl reserves the right to update or modify this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in our data processing practices, applicable law, or Platform features. When we make material changes, we will notify registered players via email to their registered address and/or via a prominent notice on the Platform at least 7 days before the changes take effect.
The "Effective Date" at the top of this Policy will always reflect the date of the most recent revision. Minor changes — such as formatting corrections or clarifications that do not alter the substance of the Policy — may be updated without prior notice. We encourage you to review this page regularly to stay informed about how yyjl protects your data.
