coinbar Privacy Policy – How We Handle Your Personal Data

1. Who We Are

coinbar operates the online gaming platform accessible at coinbar.vu. For the purposes of this Privacy Policy, coinbar is the data controller – meaning we are the entity responsible for deciding how and why your personal data is processed.

This policy applies to all personal data collected through your registration, use of the platform, payment transactions, KYC verification, and any communications you have with coinbar support.

If you have any questions about how your data is handled, you can reach the coinbar support team through your account dashboard at any time. Contact details are also provided in Section 12 of this policy.

2. Data We Collect

coinbar collects personal data in several ways – directly from you during registration and use, automatically through your device and browser, and through the KYC verification process.

We collect only data that is necessary for the purposes described in this policy. We do not collect data that is excessive or irrelevant to operating the coinbar platform.

3. How We Use Your Data

coinbar uses your personal data for the following purposes:

• Account creation and management – To set up and maintain your coinbar account, including verifying your identity and age through KYC.
• Platform operation – To provide access to games, process bets, settle outcomes, and display your account balance and transaction history.
• Payment processing – To facilitate PHP deposits and withdrawals through Philippine banking channels and supported e-wallets, and to detect and prevent fraudulent transactions.
• Security and fraud prevention – To monitor for suspicious login activity, verify OTP authentication, and protect your account from unauthorised access.
• Customer support – To respond to your enquiries, resolve account issues, and maintain a record of support interactions.
• Responsible gaming – To support the deposit limits, session tools, cooling-off periods, and self-exclusion features available in your account settings.
• Legal and regulatory compliance – To meet obligations under applicable Philippine law, including anti-money laundering requirements.
• Platform improvement – To analyse aggregated usage data for the purpose of improving platform performance, game selection, and the overall player experience.

We do not use your data for behavioural advertising or share it with advertising networks.

4. Legal Basis for Processing

coinbar processes your personal data on the following legal grounds:

• Contractual necessity – Processing your data is necessary to operate your account and deliver the platform services you have signed up for.
• Legal obligation – Some processing is required to comply with applicable Philippine law, including KYC and anti-money laundering obligations.
• Legitimate interests – We process certain technical and usage data to maintain platform security, prevent fraud, and improve the service, where these interests are not overridden by your rights.
• Consent – Where we rely on your consent for any specific processing activity, you will be informed at the point of data collection and you may withdraw consent at any time by contacting support.

5. Data Sharing

coinbar does not sell, rent, or share your personal data with third parties for their own marketing or commercial purposes. We may share your data only in the following limited circumstances:

• Payment service providers – To process PHP deposits and withdrawals through local Philippine banking channels. These providers have access only to the data needed to process the transaction.
• KYC and identity verification providers – To verify the authenticity of government-issued IDs submitted during account setup.
• Technology and hosting providers – Platforms and infrastructure providers that support the operation of coinbar are bound by data processing agreements and confidentiality obligations.
• Legal and regulatory bodies – Where required by applicable Philippine law, court order, or regulatory requirement, coinbar may disclose data to the relevant authority.
• Fraud and crime prevention – Where coinbar reasonably suspects fraudulent or criminal activity, relevant data may be shared with appropriate authorities.

All third parties with whom coinbar shares data are required to handle it securely and use it only for the specified purpose.

6. Data Retention

coinbar retains your personal data for as long as your account is active and for a reasonable period thereafter, as required by applicable law and operational necessity. The retention periods for key data categories are as follows:

• Account and identity data – Retained for the duration of your account and for a minimum of five years after account closure, as required for anti-money laundering compliance.
• Transaction records – Retained for a minimum of five years from the date of each transaction.
• KYC documents – Retained in line with applicable Philippine legal requirements for identity verification records.
• Support communications – Retained for a reasonable period to allow follow-up and resolve any subsequent disputes.
• Technical and usage data – Retained in aggregated or anonymised form for platform improvement purposes; individually identifiable data is retained only as long as necessary.

When data is no longer required to be retained, it is securely deleted or anonymised.

7. Security Measures

coinbar implements technical and organisational security measures proportionate to the sensitivity of the data we hold. Key measures include:

• SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) encryption on all data transmitted between your device and coinbar
• OTP two-factor authentication required for every account login
• Access controls limiting which coinbar staff can view sensitive account or KYC data
• Regular review of security practices and infrastructure
• Secure handling and storage of KYC identity documents

While coinbar takes reasonable steps to protect your data, no online platform can guarantee absolute security. If you suspect your account has been accessed without your permission, contact support immediately through your account dashboard.

8. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

coinbar uses cookies and similar browser technologies to operate and improve the platform. These are small files stored on your device that help the platform remember your session and preferences.

Types of Cookies Used

• Essential cookies – Required for the platform to function. These include session cookies that keep you logged in and security cookies supporting OTP authentication flows. These cannot be disabled without affecting platform functionality.
• Analytics cookies – Used in aggregated, non-identifiable form to understand how players navigate the platform, which helps us improve the experience. These do not track individual behaviour for advertising purposes.
• Preference cookies – Store settings such as your language preference and notification choices.

You can manage or delete cookies through your browser settings. Disabling essential cookies will affect your ability to log in and use the platform.

9. Your Data Rights

As a coinbar player, you have the following rights over your personal data:

To exercise any of these rights, contact coinbar support through your account dashboard. We will respond to verified requests within a reasonable timeframe. Some requests may require identity verification before they can be actioned.

10. Minors

coinbar is strictly for persons aged 21 years and above. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under this age. Age is verified during the KYC process before any real-money activity is permitted.

If coinbar becomes aware that personal data has been collected from a person under the minimum age, the account will be closed and the data will be deleted in accordance with applicable law. If you believe a minor has registered on the platform, please notify coinbar support immediately.

11. Changes to This Policy

coinbar may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in our practices, the platform, or applicable law. Where material changes are made, registered players will be notified through in-platform communications or email ahead of the changes taking effect.

The date at the top of this page indicates when the policy was last reviewed. Continued use of coinbar after an updated policy is published constitutes acceptance of the revised terms. If you do not accept a material change, you may close your account by contacting support.
