1. Who We Are

yestaya is an online gaming and entertainment platform operated for players based in the Philippines. Our platform offers live casino games, slot games, fish games, and promotional offers, all accessible via mobile browser or desktop. When you register an account, make a deposit, or interact with any feature on the platform, you are sharing certain personal information with us. This Privacy Policy governs how that information is collected, stored, used, and protected. If you have any questions about our data practices, you can reach our support team at the contact details provided at the bottom of this page.

2. What Information We Collect

We collect personal information that is necessary to operate your account and comply with applicable regulations. The categories of data we may collect include:

  • Registration data: your full name, date of birth, email address, and mobile number provided when you create an account.
  • Identity verification documents: government-issued ID, proof of address, or other documents required to verify your identity and age in line with Philippine regulations.
  • Financial data: payment method details, transaction history, deposit and withdrawal records denominated in Philippine pesos (PHP).
  • Device and usage data: IP address, browser type, device model, operating system, pages visited, session duration, and in-game activity logs.
  • Communications data: records of messages you send to our support team, including enquiries, complaints, and feedback.

We do not collect sensitive personal information such as racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, or health data unless specifically required by law or regulatory obligation.

3. How We Use Your Information

The personal data we collect is used strictly for the purposes described below. We do not use your data for any purpose that is incompatible with the reason it was originally collected.

  • Account management: to create, maintain, and secure your player account on the yestaya platform.
  • Identity and age verification: to confirm that you meet the minimum age requirement of 21 years and to comply with Philippine gaming regulations.
  • Transaction processing: to process deposits, withdrawals, and bonus credits in Philippine pesos through local payment channels.
  • Customer support: to respond to your enquiries, resolve disputes, and improve our service quality.
  • Platform security: to detect and prevent fraud, money laundering, account abuse, and other prohibited activities.
  • Regulatory compliance: to meet our obligations under applicable Philippine laws and gaming regulations, including record-keeping requirements.
  • Service improvement: to analyse usage patterns and improve the platform experience for all Filipino players.

4. Legal Basis for Processing

We process your personal data on the following legal grounds. First, processing is necessary for the performance of the contract between you and yestaya — without it, we cannot operate your account or process your transactions. Second, we process certain data to comply with legal obligations imposed on us by Philippine law and gaming regulations. Third, we may process data based on our legitimate interests in operating a secure, fair, and commercially viable gaming platform, provided those interests do not override your fundamental rights. Where we rely on your consent — for example, for optional marketing communications — you may withdraw that consent at any time by contacting our support team.

5. Data Sharing and Third Parties

yestaya does not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties for their own marketing purposes. We may share your data only in the following limited circumstances:

  • Payment processors: local Philippine payment service providers who process your deposits and withdrawals on our behalf, bound by their own data protection obligations.
  • Identity verification services: third-party providers who assist us in verifying your identity and age as required by regulation.
  • Game providers: software providers whose games are hosted on the platform may receive anonymised session data necessary to deliver the game experience.
  • Regulatory authorities: we may disclose data to Philippine gaming regulators, law enforcement agencies, or courts when required by law or valid legal process.
  • Service providers: technology and infrastructure partners who support the operation of the platform, all of whom are contractually bound to process data only on our instructions.

All third parties with whom we share data are required to maintain appropriate security standards and to use your information only for the specific purpose for which it was shared.

6. Data Retention

We retain your personal data for as long as your account remains active and for a period thereafter as required by applicable Philippine laws and gaming regulations. In most cases, transaction records and identity verification documents are retained for a minimum of five years following account closure to satisfy anti-money laundering and regulatory record-keeping requirements. Usage and device data may be retained for shorter periods depending on the purpose for which it was collected. When data is no longer required, it is securely deleted or anonymised in accordance with our internal data retention schedule. If you request account closure, we will action your request promptly while retaining only the data we are legally obliged to keep.

7. Data Security

We take the security of your personal information seriously and implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect it against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. These measures include encrypted data transmission, access controls limiting who within our organisation can view your data, regular security assessments, and secure storage infrastructure. However, no online platform can guarantee absolute security, and you also play a role in keeping your account safe — please use a strong, unique password and never share your login credentials with anyone. If you suspect that your account has been compromised, contact our support team immediately so we can take protective action on your behalf.

8. Your Rights as a Data Subject

As a player based in the Philippines, you have the following rights in relation to your personal data held by yestaya:

  • Right to access: you may request a copy of the personal data we hold about you at any time.
  • Right to correction: if any of your personal data is inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to request that we correct it.
  • Right to erasure: in certain circumstances, you may request that we delete your personal data, subject to our legal retention obligations.
  • Right to object: you may object to the processing of your data where we rely on legitimate interests as our legal basis.
  • Right to withdraw consent: where processing is based on your consent, you may withdraw it at any time without affecting the lawfulness of prior processing.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact our support team. We will respond to all valid requests within a reasonable timeframe and in accordance with applicable law.

9. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

yestaya uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to operate the platform, remember your preferences, and analyse how players use our services. Essential cookies are necessary for the platform to function and cannot be disabled. Analytical cookies help us understand usage patterns so we can improve the experience for Filipino players. You can manage your cookie preferences through your browser settings at any time, though disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of the platform. We do not use cookies to serve third-party advertising or to track your activity across unrelated websites.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our data practices, platform features, or applicable regulations. When material changes are made, the revision date at the top of this page will be updated accordingly. We encourage you to review this page periodically so you remain informed about how your data is being handled. Your continued use of the yestaya platform following any update constitutes your acceptance of the revised policy. If you have questions about any changes, our support team is available to assist you.

Common Questions About Your Privacy

Quick answers to what Filipino players most often ask about data handling on the yestaya platform.

No. yestaya does not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to any third party for marketing or commercial purposes. Your data is shared only with the specific service providers — such as payment processors and identity verification partners — who need it to help us operate your account and process your transactions. All such partners are contractually bound to use your data only for the purpose it was shared and to maintain appropriate security standards. We have no commercial arrangement with any data broker or advertising network that would involve sharing your personal information.

Identity verification is a regulatory requirement for online gaming platforms operating in the Philippines. Before processing a withdrawal, we are required to confirm that the account holder is who they say they are, that they meet the minimum age requirement of 21 years, and that the funds being withdrawn are legitimate. This process protects both you and the platform from fraud and financial crime. The documents you submit are stored securely and used only for verification purposes — they are never shared with third parties for any other reason. For more details on how to complete a withdrawal, visit our Withdrawal page.

Yes, you have the right to request deletion of your personal data. However, please be aware that certain data — particularly transaction records and identity verification documents — must be retained for a minimum period under Philippine anti-money laundering laws and gaming regulations, even after your account is closed. When you submit a deletion request, we will erase all data that we are not legally required to keep and confirm what, if anything, must be retained and for how long. To submit a data deletion request, please contact our support team directly with your account details and the nature of your request.

If you no longer wish to receive promotional communications from yestaya, you can opt out at any time by contacting our support team and requesting to be removed from our marketing list. Once your opt-out is processed, we will stop sending you promotional messages. Please note that opting out of marketing communications does not affect transactional messages — we will still send you important account-related notifications such as deposit confirmations, withdrawal updates, and security alerts. If you have self-excluded from the platform, promotional communications will also be stopped automatically as part of that process.
