01 Introduction
Welcome to 1wen. We respect your privacy and understand that entrusting an online gaming platform with your personal information is a matter of significant trust. This Privacy Policy is designed to be clear and honest about exactly what information 1wen collects from you, why we collect it, how we use it, who we may share it with, and what rights you have over it.
This policy applies to all personal data processed by 1wen in connection with your use of the 1wen platform available at 1wen.org, including all associated games, payment services, customer support channels, and promotional activities.
By registering a 1wen account or accessing the 1wen platform, you acknowledge that you have read this Privacy Policy and that you consent to the collection and use of your personal data as described herein. If you do not agree to this policy, you must not use the 1wen platform.
Philippine Law: 1wen is committed to compliance with Republic Act No. 10173, the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012 ("DPA"), and its implementing rules and regulations as issued by the National Privacy Commission ("NPC"). Your rights under the DPA are fully recognized and supported by 1wen.
02 Who We Are — Data Controller
For the purposes of the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012 and this Privacy Policy, the data controller responsible for your personal information is 1wen, operating the online gaming platform accessible at 1wen.org.
1wen is the entity that determines the purposes and means of processing your personal data. We have appointed a Data Protection Officer ("DPO") who is responsible for overseeing compliance with this Privacy Policy and applicable data protection law. Contact details for the DPO are set out in Section 16 of this policy.
Where 1wen engages third-party service providers who process personal data on our behalf (for example, payment processors, identity verification services, and cloud infrastructure providers), those parties act as data processors operating under 1wen's instructions and are bound by data processing agreements that require them to protect your data to at least the same standard as 1wen.

NO DATA SALES: 1wen does not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to marketing companies, data brokers, or any other commercial third parties.
08 Cookies & Tracking Technologies
1wen uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to operate the platform, recognize returning users, maintain session security, and understand how the platform is used. The following types of cookies are used on 1wen:
- Strictly Necessary Cookies: These cookies are essential for the 1wen platform to function. They include session authentication tokens, CSRF protection tokens, and load-balancing cookies. These cannot be disabled without preventing you from using the platform;
- Functional Cookies: These cookies remember your preferences — such as your selected language, game lobby filters, and responsible gaming settings — so that your experience is consistent across sessions;
- Analytics Cookies: These cookies collect aggregated, anonymized data about how users navigate the 1wen platform, which pages are most visited, and where users encounter errors. This data is used to improve the platform;
- Security Cookies: These cookies support 1wen's fraud detection systems by flagging unusual patterns of access — for example, a login from an unrecognized device or geographic location.
You may manage cookie preferences through your browser settings. Note that disabling strictly necessary cookies will impair your ability to use 1wen. For analytics and functional cookies, your consent is sought when you first access the platform.
09 Data Retention
1wen retains personal data for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, to comply with applicable legal and regulatory obligations, and to resolve disputes or enforce our agreements. The following general retention periods apply:
- Active Account Data: Retained for the duration of your 1wen account and for a minimum of five (5) years following account closure, in compliance with Philippine anti-money laundering record-keeping requirements;
- Transaction Records: Retained for a minimum of five (5) years following the date of the transaction, as required by applicable Philippine financial regulations;
- KYC and Identity Documents: Retained for a minimum of five (5) years following account closure or the last completed transaction, whichever is later;
- Customer Support Records: Retained for three (3) years following resolution of the relevant support interaction, unless the matter involves an unresolved legal dispute;
- Marketing Consent Records: Retained for as long as you remain subscribed to marketing communications, and for two (2) years following withdrawal of consent as a record of the consent history;
- Technical Logs: Retained for twelve (12) months from the date of generation, unless a specific log is required in connection with an active security investigation or legal matter.
Post-Retention Deletion: Upon expiry of the applicable retention period, 1wen will either securely delete your personal data or anonymize it such that it can no longer be linked to you, unless retention is required by a continuing legal obligation.
10 Data Security
1wen implements and maintains a comprehensive set of technical and organizational security measures designed to protect your personal data against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. These measures include:
- Encryption in Transit: All data transmitted between your device and 1wen's servers is encrypted using TLS 1.3 / 256-bit SSL, the same standard used by major Philippine banks and e-wallets;
- Encryption at Rest: Sensitive personal data stored in 1wen's databases — including identity documents, financial data, and password hashes — is encrypted at rest using AES-256 or equivalent;
- Access Controls: Access to systems containing personal data is restricted on a strict need-to-know basis, with role-based access controls, multi-factor authentication for administrative accounts, and full access logging;
- Password Security: User passwords are stored as salted cryptographic hashes using a one-way hashing algorithm. 1wen staff cannot read your password;
- Vulnerability Management: 1wen's technical infrastructure undergoes regular security assessments and penetration testing. Identified vulnerabilities are remediated in accordance with their severity;
- Incident Response: 1wen maintains a documented data breach response plan. In the event of a personal data breach that poses a risk to your rights, 1wen will notify the National Privacy Commission within 72 hours and will notify affected individuals without undue delay, as required by RA 10173.
Your Role in Security: The security of your account also depends on you. Use a strong, unique password for your 1wen account, keep your login credentials confidential, and notify 1wen immediately if you suspect unauthorized access to your account.
11 Your Data Rights
Under the Philippine Data Privacy Act of 2012, you have the following rights in relation to your personal data held by 1wen. You may exercise these rights at any time by contacting our Data Protection Officer as described in Section 16:
- Right to be Informed: The right to be notified of how your personal data is collected, processed, and stored — which this Privacy Policy satisfies;
- Right to Access: The right to obtain from 1wen a copy of the personal data we hold about you, along with information about how it is being processed;
- Right to Rectification: The right to request correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal data held by 1wen. Some corrections — particularly to name and date of birth — may require documentary verification;
- Right to Erasure / Right to be Forgotten: The right to request deletion of your personal data where there is no longer a lawful basis for retention. This right is subject to 1wen's legal obligations to retain certain data for regulatory compliance purposes, as described in Section 9;
- Right to Data Portability: The right to receive a copy of the personal data you have provided to 1wen in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format;
- Right to Object: The right to object to processing of your personal data for direct marketing purposes or for purposes based on 1wen's legitimate interests. Your objection will be respected unless 1wen has compelling legitimate grounds that override your interests;
- Right to Withdraw Consent: Where processing is based on your consent (for example, for marketing communications), the right to withdraw that consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out prior to withdrawal;
- Right to Complain: The right to lodge a complaint with the National Privacy Commission (NPC) if you believe that 1wen has processed your personal data in breach of RA 10173. Details of the NPC's complaint process are available at the NPC's official channels.
1wen will respond to all data rights requests within thirty (30) days of receipt. Where a request is complex or 1wen receives a high volume of requests, this period may be extended by a further thirty (30) days, with notice provided to you.
12 Children's Privacy and the 21+ Rule
1wen's platform is strictly restricted to individuals who are twenty-one (21) years of age or older, in accordance with Philippine law applicable to casino-style online gaming. 1wen does not knowingly collect personal data from individuals under the age of 21.
All registration requests are subject to age verification. Where 1wen discovers that personal data has been collected from an individual who does not meet the minimum age requirement, that data will be deleted without delay and the associated account will be closed. Any funds deposited by an underage player will be returned to the source payment method after deducting any applicable processing costs, subject to verification.
PARENTAL AWARENESS: If you are a parent or guardian and believe that a minor in your care may have registered a 1wen account, please contact our Data Protection Officer immediately using the contact details in Section 16. We will investigate and take prompt action.
13 Marketing Communications
Where you have provided your consent, 1wen may send you marketing communications about promotions, new game releases, deposit bonuses, and other 1wen offers via SMS to your registered Philippine mobile number or by email.
You can opt out of marketing communications at any time by:
- Updating your communication preferences in your 1wen account settings;
- Contacting 1wen support through the in-app live chat and requesting removal from marketing lists;
- Replying "STOP" to any SMS marketing message sent by 1wen.
Withdrawal of marketing consent will not affect your receipt of transactional communications — such as deposit confirmations, withdrawal notifications, security alerts, and OTPs — which are sent as a necessary part of operating your 1wen account and cannot be opted out of while your account remains active.
No Spam: 1wen does not sell your contact details to third-party marketers. Marketing communications from 1wen come only from 1wen and relate only to 1wen's own platform and services.
14 Third-Party Links
The 1wen platform may contain references to third-party services — such as payment providers (GCash, Maya, BPI, BDO) and game studios — whose own privacy policies govern the handling of any personal data you provide directly to those parties through their own platforms.
1wen is not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party operators. When you interact with a third-party service in connection with 1wen — for example, authorizing a GCash payment or launching a game hosted by JILI — your interaction with that third party's platform is subject to their privacy policy and terms of service, not this policy.
1wen recommends reviewing the privacy policies of payment providers and other third-party services before sharing personal data with them.
15 Updates to This Privacy Policy
1wen may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our data processing practices, updates to applicable law, or improvements to the 1wen platform. The date of the most recent revision is displayed at the top of this policy.
Where a material change is made to this policy — for example, a change to the categories of data we collect, the legal basis for processing, or the recipients with whom data is shared — 1wen will notify registered users via the platform, by SMS, or by email to the address on file, and will provide a reasonable period for review before the changes take effect.
Your continued use of the 1wen platform following notification of a material policy update constitutes your acceptance of the revised Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to the updated policy, you must cease using 1wen and may request account closure as described in 1wen's Terms & Conditions.
