Overview
This Privacy Policy governs the collection, use, storage, and disclosure of personal data by Taya369, accessible at https://taya369.app. It applies to all registered users, visitors, and anyone who interacts with the platform in any way — whether you are placing bets, browsing the site, contacting support, or simply checking the latest betting odds.
Taya369 takes data privacy seriously. We only collect information that is necessary to operate the platform, comply with legal obligations, and give you the best possible experience. We do not sell your personal data. We do not share it with advertisers. And we never use it in ways that go beyond what is described in this document.
This policy is written in plain language — not legalese — because Filipino players deserve to understand exactly what they are agreeing to when they use Taya369. If you have questions about anything here, our support team is available 24/7 at support@taya369.app.
