luckon Privacy Policy
Your privacy matters to us. This document explains exactly what personal data luckon collects, why we collect it, how we use and protect it, and what rights you hold as a user under Philippine law.
Our Privacy Commitments
Before diving into the full legal text, here are the six core principles that guide how luckon handles your personal information. These are not just statements — they are the operating standards our team follows every day.
Data Minimization
luckon only collects the personal data that is strictly necessary for account operation, identity verification, payment processing, and compliance with PAGCOR and Philippine AMLA regulations. We do not collect data speculatively or for resale.
No Third-Party Marketing Sales
Your personal data is never sold to advertisers, data brokers, or third-party marketing networks. Any sharing with external parties is limited to what is required by law, by PAGCOR regulation, or by contracted service providers bound by data processing agreements.
Your Rights Under RA 10173
As a Filipino data subject, you hold the right to access, correct, erase, object, and port your personal data under the Data Privacy Act of 2012. luckon provides a clear process to exercise all of these rights — detailed in Section 10 of this Policy.
Secure Storage
All personal data stored by luckon is protected using industry-standard encryption at rest and in transit. Access to personal data within luckon's systems is restricted to authorized personnel on a strict need-to-know basis with full audit logging.
Defined Retention Periods
luckon retains your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Policy, or as required by PAGCOR licensing conditions and Philippine law — including a minimum five-year retention period mandated under AMLA for transaction records.
Breach Notification
In the unlikely event of a personal data breach that poses risk to affected users, luckon will notify affected account holders and the National Privacy Commission (NPC) within 72 hours of becoming aware of the breach, in compliance with NPC Circular 16-03.

We do not collect sensitive personal information such as racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious beliefs, health data, or sexual orientation — except where the collection of health-related information is directly relevant to a responsible gaming assessment at the User's own initiative.
3. How We Use Your Personal Data
luckon uses your personal data for the following clearly defined purposes:
- Account Creation & Management — to register your luckon account, verify your identity, maintain your account settings, and process account closure requests;
- Payment Processing — to process deposits and withdrawals via GCash, Maya, QR Ph, BPI, BDO, Metrobank, InstaPay, PesoNet, and 7-Eleven CLiQQ, and to match payment records for dispute resolution;
- KYC & AMLA Compliance — to verify your identity as required by PAGCOR licensing conditions and to comply with the Anti-Money Laundering Act of the Philippines (Republic Act No. 9160 as amended), including transaction monitoring and suspicious activity reporting to the Anti-Money Laundering Council (AMLC);
- Gaming Services Delivery — to operate and personalize your gaming experience, including game history, balance management, and responsible gaming tool functionality;

- Legal Obligation — processing required to comply with PAGCOR licensing requirements, AMLA obligations, NPC reporting requirements, and other applicable Philippine laws and regulations;
- Legitimate Interests — processing necessary for fraud prevention, platform security, abuse detection, and anonymized analytics, provided such interests are not overridden by your data privacy rights;
- Consent — where we rely on consent (e.g., for optional marketing communications), you may withdraw consent at any time by contacting [email protected] or updating your account notification preferences. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing conducted prior to withdrawal.

luckon does not sell your personal data. We share your personal data only in the following circumstances and only to the minimum extent necessary:
- PAGCOR & Regulatory Authorities — we are required to share player data, gaming activity records, and KYC documentation with PAGCOR upon request as a condition of our operating license.

- Payment Service Providers — we share necessary transaction data with payment processors (GCash/Maya/bank partners) to facilitate deposits and withdrawals. These providers act as independent data controllers for their own services and are governed by their own privacy policies;

- Game Content Providers — game software providers may receive anonymized session data (no personally identifiable information) for game performance analytics and RTP compliance audits;
- Law Enforcement — we will disclose personal data to Philippine law enforcement authorities where required by a valid court order, subpoena, or legal process under Philippine law;
- Business Transfers — in the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of substantially all of luckon's assets, your personal data may be transferred to the successor entity, subject to the same privacy protections. You will be notified of any such transfer via the email address on your account.
No Marketing Data Sales: luckon does not share your personal data with advertisers, data aggregators, or marketing networks — whether in the Philippines or internationally — for any commercial purpose. Your data is used exclusively to operate your luckon account and fulfill our regulatory obligations.

9. Cross-Border Data Transfers
The luckon platform primarily stores and processes personal data within the Philippines or in data centers serving the Philippine market. Where data processing involves service providers located outside the Philippines — such as international cloud infrastructure providers or global game software vendors — luckon ensures that such transfers are covered by appropriate safeguards.
In accordance with NPC guidelines, cross-border transfers of personal data from the Philippines are conducted only where:
- The receiving country or organization provides an adequate level of data protection as recognized by the NPC; or
- We have implemented contractual safeguards — including NPC-compliant data processing agreements or binding corporate rules — that ensure the receiving party protects your data to a standard equivalent to RA 10173; or
- The transfer is necessary for the performance of a contract with you (e.g., processing an international payment); or
- Your explicit consent to the transfer has been obtained.
If you have questions about the specific safeguards in place for any cross-border data transfer involving your personal information, you may request details from our DPO at [email protected].
