Any deposits made by an underage individual may be returned at ds88play's sole discretion, and any winnings will be forfeited.

12. Cross-Border Data Transfers

ds88play primarily processes and stores personal data within the Philippines.

Where personal data is transferred outside the Philippines, ds88play ensures that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your data in accordance with the Data Privacy Act.

Such safeguards may include contractual clauses requiring the recipient to apply data protection standards equivalent to those required under Philippine law, or reliance on the recipient's adherence to internationally recognized data protection frameworks.

By using the ds88play Platform, you acknowledge and consent to the transfer of your personal data to countries outside the Philippines where necessary for the provision of our services, subject to the safeguards described above.
