Age Limits
Our services are strictly limited to individuals aged 18 years and older. If we discover that an account belongs to a minor, the account will be terminated immediately, and any remaining funds will be handled according to our Terms.
Parents or guardians who believe a minor has created an account may report this via our support channels.
Cross-Border Transfers
Some of our technical and payment providers may operate outside the Philippines. In such cases, we ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your data during these transfers.
