4. How We Share Your Information

qo123 does not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties for their marketing purposes. However, we may share your information with the following categories of recipients under specific circumstances:

• Service Providers: qo123 engages third-party service providers to perform functions on our behalf, including payment processing (GCash, PayMaya, bank partners), identity verification services, cloud hosting providers, customer support platforms, and marketing analytics tools. These service providers have access to personal information only as necessary to perform their functions and are contractually obligated to protect your data and not use it for other purposes.
• Regulatory Authorities: qo123 is required by law to disclose personal information to PAGCOR and other Philippine regulatory authorities upon request. We may also report suspicious transactions to the Anti-Money Laundering Council (AMLC) as required by AML regulations.
• Law Enforcement: qo123 may disclose personal information to law enforcement agencies, courts, or government authorities when required by valid legal process (subpoena, court order, search warrant) or when we reasonably believe disclosure is necessary to prevent harm, investigate fraud, or comply with legal obligations.
• Business Transfers: In the event that qo123 undergoes a merger, acquisition, reorganization, or sale of assets, your personal information may be transferred to the acquiring entity or successor organization. You will be notified via email and/or a prominent notice on the Platform of any such change in ownership or control of your personal information.
• With Your Consent: qo123 may share your personal information with other third parties when you have provided explicit consent for such disclosure.

5. Data Security

qo123 employs industry-standard security measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. Our security practices include:

• Encryption: All data transmitted between your device and qo123 servers is encrypted using 256-bit Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology, the same encryption standard used by Philippine banks for online banking.
• Secure Servers: Personal information is stored on secure servers located in data centers with physical access controls, 24/7 surveillance, fire suppression systems, and backup power supplies.
• Access Controls: Access to personal information is restricted to authorized qo123 employees and service providers who need such access to perform their job functions. All personnel with access to personal data are bound by confidentiality obligations.
• Regular Audits: qo123 conducts regular security audits, vulnerability assessments, and penetration testing to identify and address potential security weaknesses.
• Multi-Factor Authentication: qo123 supports optional multi-factor authentication (MFA) for account login, adding an extra layer of security beyond username and password.

While qo123 implements robust security measures, no system is completely invulnerable. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for any activity that occurs under your account. If you suspect unauthorized access to your account, notify qo123 support immediately.

6. Data Retention

qo123 retains your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. Specific retention periods vary by data type:

• Identity Verification Documents: Retained for seven (7) years following the last verification event or account closure, as required by KYC and AML regulations.
• Communications: Customer support communications are retained for three (3) years to maintain service quality and resolve disputes.
• Usage Data: Aggregated and anonymized usage data may be retained indefinitely for analytical and research purposes.

After applicable retention periods expire, qo123 will securely delete or anonymize your personal information in accordance with data protection best practices.
