Who this applies to: This Privacy Policy applies to all individuals who visit, register with, or otherwise interact with the taya001 platform at taya001.best. It explains how taya001 ("we," "us," or "our") processes personal data in connection with the platform's operation. Using taya001 means you've acknowledged and accepted this policy.
1 Introduction
taya001 takes privacy seriously — not because it's a regulatory obligation (though it is), but because Filipino players deserve to know exactly what happens with their personal information when they sign up and play. This policy is written to be genuinely readable, not to obscure what taya001 does behind layers of legalese.
taya001 operates as an online gaming platform serving Filipino members. In the course of providing the platform's services — account management, game access, payment processing, customer support, and responsible gaming tools — taya001 necessarily collects and processes certain personal data. This policy explains what that data is, why taya001 needs it, how it's used, who it may be shared with, and how long it's kept.
The processing of personal data by taya001 is conducted in accordance with applicable Philippine data privacy laws, including the Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act 10173) and its implementing rules. Where taya001 processes data of individuals in other jurisdictions, it applies comparable standards.

5 Data Sharing and Third Parties
taya001 does not sell your personal data. However, the operation of the platform necessarily involves sharing certain data with the following categories of third parties:
5.1 Payment Processors
taya001 works with regulated payment service providers to process GCash, Maya, GrabPay, Coins.ph, bank transfer, and card transactions. These providers receive only the data required to process a specific transaction. All payment partners are contractually bound to maintain confidentiality and are prohibited from using your data for their own commercial purposes.

5.3 Technology Infrastructure
taya001's platform is hosted on cloud infrastructure and uses third-party software services for aspects such as customer support tools and security monitoring. These service providers act as data processors under taya001's instruction and are contractually required to maintain appropriate security standards.
5.4 Regulatory and Legal Disclosure
taya001 may disclose personal data to regulatory authorities, law enforcement, or courts where required to do so by applicable Philippine law, a valid court order, or regulatory directive. taya001 will only disclose the minimum data necessary to satisfy the legal requirement.

8 Data Security
taya001 implements technical and organisational measures designed to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, or loss. These measures include:
- TLS encryption for all data in transit between your device and taya001's servers

- Access controls limiting internal staff access to personal data to those with a legitimate operational need
- Regular security assessments and penetration testing of the platform
- Fraud detection and anomaly monitoring systems operating continuously
No system is entirely immune to security incidents. In the event of a data breach that poses a risk to your rights and interests, taya001 will notify affected members and relevant authorities in accordance with the timelines required by the Data Privacy Act.
Your account security also depends on you. Use a strong, unique password for taya001 and do not share your login credentials with anyone. taya001 will never ask for your password via email, chat, or phone.
