9. International Data Transfers

While 5mwb primarily operates within the Philippines and serves Filipino users, your personal information may be transferred to, stored, or processed in countries outside the Philippines where our service providers operate data centers or maintain servers. These countries may have data protection laws that differ from Philippine laws.

When we transfer your personal information internationally, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, including standard contractual clauses approved by data protection authorities, adequacy decisions confirming that the destination country provides adequate data protection, or your explicit consent. We take all reasonable measures to ensure your data receives the same level of protection as it would within the Philippines.

10. Children's Privacy

5mwb is committed to protecting the privacy of minors. Our services are intended exclusively for individuals who are at least twenty-one (21) years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal information from individuals under 21. If we discover that we have inadvertently collected information from someone under the minimum age requirement, we will immediately delete such information from our systems and close the associated account.

If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided personal information to 5mwb, please contact us immediately at [email protected] so we can take appropriate action. We encourage parents and guardians to monitor their children's internet usage and to help enforce this Privacy Policy by instructing minors never to provide personal information on the Platform without permission.

11. Third-Party Links and Services

The 5mwb Platform may contain links to third-party websites, applications, or services that are not owned or controlled by us. This Privacy Policy applies only to information collected by 5mwb through our Platform. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of third-party sites. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party sites you visit before providing them with personal information.

When you interact with third-party payment processors (such as GCash or PayMaya) or social media platforms linked from our site, you are subject to their respective privacy policies and terms of service. 5mwb is not responsible for how these third parties collect, use, or protect your information.

12. Changes to This Privacy Policy

5mwb reserves the right to modify, update, or revise this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in our data practices, legal requirements, or business operations. When we make material changes to this policy, we will notify you by email to the address associated with your account, through a prominent notice on our Platform, or through in-app notifications at least thirty (30) days before the changes take effect.

We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any updates. The "Last Updated" date at the top of this document indicates when the policy was last revised.
