Security measures in place include:

6.Data Retention

Hawkplay link retains your personal data for as long as your account is active and for a reasonable period thereafter as required by applicable law and our internal compliance obligations.

Specific retention periods may be dictated by:

• Anti-money laundering and financial record-keeping requirements under Philippine law.
• The need to resolve any outstanding disputes, claims, or investigations related to your account.
• Fraud detection and prevention obligations, which may require us to retain certain data even after account closure.

When personal data is no longer required, it is deleted or anonymised in a secure manner. You may request account closure at any time by contacting [email protected], after which your data will be handled in accordance with applicable retention requirements.
