133pub ("we," "us," "the Company," or "the Platform") operates the online gaming platform accessible at https://133pub.cam. We are committed to protecting and respecting the privacy of every Filipino player who registers, browses, or interacts with our services. This Privacy Policy explains in plain, honest language how we collect, use, store, share, and protect your personal information.
This Policy is issued in compliance with Republic Act No. 10173, also known as the Data Privacy Act of 2012 (DPA), and its Implementing Rules and Regulations (IRR), as well as the guidelines issued by the National Privacy Commission (NPC) of the Philippines.

For the purposes of the Data Privacy Act of 2012, 133pub acts as the personal information controller with respect to the data you provide when registering and using the Platform. This means we determine the purposes and means of processing your personal data.
Where we engage third-party service providers — such as payment processors (GCash, PayMaya, BPI, BDO, Metrobank) or game software providers — those parties act as personal information processors and are contractually bound to process your data only on our instructions, in accordance with this Policy and applicable Philippine law.
