13 Cross-Border Data Transfers

Some of the third-party service providers 9slot works with — including licensed game content providers such as Evolution Gaming and Ezugi, and certain cloud infrastructure partners — may process or store personal data outside the Philippines. Where such cross-border transfers occur, 9slot ensures that adequate safeguards are in place to protect your data, consistent with the requirements of the Philippine Data Privacy Act and NPC regulations.

Safeguards for cross-border transfers implemented by 9slot include contractual clauses that require overseas data processors to maintain data protection standards equivalent to those required under Philippine law, as well as assessments of the data protection frameworks of recipient countries prior to engaging service providers.

By using the 9slot Platform and accepting this Privacy Policy, you acknowledge that your personal data may be transferred to and processed in countries outside the Philippines as described in this section, subject to the safeguards outlined herein.
