1.Who is responsible for your data
[Registered company name]TBC, with its office at [Registered office address, Metro Manila]TBC, is the personal information controller for the Nexo TV service. This notice explains what personal data we process, why, and the rights you have under the Data Privacy Act of 2012 (RA 10173), its Implementing Rules and Regulations, and issuances of the National Privacy Commission (NPC).
It applies to our apps and website, customer support, and creator tools. Creators who submit content are also covered by their creator agreement.
2.Personal data we collect
| Category | Examples |
|---|---|
| Account | Name, email address, password (stored only as a salted one-way hash), country, language, marketing preference. |
| Profiles | Profile names and avatars, kids-profile status, maturity settings, parental PIN (hashed), playback and caption preferences, languages and interests you choose. |
| Viewing activity | What you watch and for how long, watch progress, your list, ratings, reactions and comments. |
| Transactions | Plan, purchases, coin balance and ledger, amounts, dates and payment status. Card and e-wallet details are handled by our payment partners; we don’t receive your full card number or e-wallet PIN. |
| Device and technical | Device type, browser, app version, approximate country from your IP address, session and security logs. IP addresses in our audit logs are stored in hashed form. |
| Social features | Friends and friend requests, watch-party chat messages, reactions and poll votes (shown to the people in that party with your display name), people you block, and reports you make about messages, people or answers. |
| Watch Concierge | Questions you ask the Watch Concierge and the answers and titles it suggested, kept with your profile. |
| Sponsored videos | If you choose to watch a short sponsored video to unlock an episode: which video, when, how much of it played and the episode it unlocked. Advertisers see only totals, never who watched. |
| Support and requests | Messages you send us, reports about content, takedown notices, privacy requests. |
| Product analytics (with consent) | How you use app features, collected first-party only after you allow analytics. |
3.Why we use it, and our lawful basis
| Purpose | Lawful basis (RA 10173, Sec. 12) |
|---|---|
| Create and secure your account; stream content; remember progress and settings | Performance of our contract with you |
| Take payments, prevent fraud, keep tax and accounting records | Contract; compliance with legal obligations (e.g. tax law) |
| Apply MTRCB-based ratings, parental controls and regional licensing | Contract; legal obligation |
| Personalised recommendations | Your consent, which you can withdraw anytime in Privacy & data |
| Product analytics to improve playback and the app | Your consent |
| News and offers by email | Your consent |
| Safety, moderation, security logging and responding to legal claims | Legitimate interests; legal obligation |
We do not sell your personal data. We do not process sensitive personal information (such as health or government ID numbers) unless you choose to send it to us, and we ask you not to.
4.Automated processing
- Recommendations use your viewing on a profile to rank titles. They don’t produce legal or similarly significant effects. You can turn them off per profile or withdraw consent for all profiles.
- Watch Concierge sends the message you type to a third-party language-model provider to suggest titles. It only uses your watch history if you switch that on for the request.
6.Cross-border transfers
Our servers are hosted in Singapore, and some service providers may process data in other countries. Under Section 21 of RA 10173 we remain accountable for your personal data wherever it is processed, and we use contractual safeguards so that it receives protection comparable to Philippine law.
7.How long we keep it
- Account, profile and viewing data: while your account is open. When you delete your account, we erase or anonymise it within 30 days.
- Viewing history you delete yourself is removed from your profile right away and from backups on their normal cycle.
- Watch-party chat and reactions: deleted with the party about 7 days after it ends. A reported message is kept with its moderation case.
- Transaction and tax records: for the period required by the National Internal Revenue Code and BIR regulations ([period to be confirmed]TBC).
- Security and audit logs: for a limited period ([period to be confirmed]TBC), longer only if needed for an investigation or legal claim.
- Support tickets and takedown notices: for [period to be confirmed]TBC after they are closed.
8.How we protect it
We use organisational, physical and technical measures, including:
- encryption in transit (HTTPS/TLS) and access tokens stored in secure, http-only cookies;
- passwords and parental PINs stored only as salted one-way hashes;
- role-based access for staff, with every sensitive action written to a tamper-evident audit log;
- rate limits and automatic sign-out of other devices when you change your password.
If a personal data breach is likely to put you at real risk of serious harm, we will notify the NPC and affected people within 72 hours of knowing about it, as NPC rules require.
9.Children
You must be at least 13 to have an account, and users under 18 need a parent or guardian’s consent. Kids profiles are created and managed by the adult account holder; we don’t ask children for personal data, and kids profiles only show titles rated G or PG.
10.Your rights
Under RA 10173 you have the right to:
- be informed about how your data is processed (this notice);
- access your personal data: download a copy in Privacy & data;
- object to processing based on consent or legitimate interests, and withdraw consent anytime;
- erasure or blocking: delete your account;
- correct inaccurate data in Profile & settings or by contacting us;
- data portability: your export is machine-readable (JSON);
- damages for harm caused by inaccurate, unlawfully obtained or unauthorised use of your data;
- file a complaint with the National Privacy Commission.
We respond to requests within 30 days. We may need to confirm your identity first. Exercising your rights is free.
