Privacy Notice

PLDT, Inc. (“PLDT”) respects your fundamental right to privacy and we commit to take great care in safeguarding your personal data. In compliance with the Data Privacy Act, we share with you the principles that govern how your personal data will be collected, processed, and shared as you charge your Lionsgate Play subscription to your PLDT Home account.

Why we collect and process your personal data

  1. Account Validation. PLDT will first check if your account is qualified to be charged based on a set of criteria. If your account is cleared to be charged, PLDT will re-verify your intent to subscribe to Lionsgate Play by sending you a One-Time Pin (“OTP”) through the mobile number on record of your PLDT Home account.

    Once you pass the OTP challenge, you will need to provide an email address that will serve as your username in Lionsgate Play. In turn, Lions Gate Play LLP (“LIONSGATE”) will send you a temporary password via SMS, which you can use to access your Lionsgate Play subscription.
  2. Charging. PLDT will process your PLDT Home account name and account number so that we may correctly charge the Lionsgate Play subscription fees to your PLDT Home account. Your Lionsgate Play subscription will be automatically renewed and billed monthly unless you cancel your subscription through any of the following ways:
    1. By calling 171;
    2. By visiting a PLDT Sales & Service Center; or
    3. Through the Lionsgate Play mobile application or website.
    Note that your Lionsgate Play subscription may be cancelled in the event your PLDT Home account is permanently disconnected due to non-payment of your monthly PLDT Home statement of account.

    If you do not wish to charge your Lionsgate Play subscription to your PLDT Home account, you have the option to use other modes of payment such as credit/debit cards and e-Wallets. Depending on the payment method that you choose to make your purchase, you may be required by our third-party payment gateway partners to submit additional information, such as your credit/debit card details, or your account number/ log-in credentials to pay using your e-Wallet.
  3. Service Updates. PLDT will process the mobile number on record of your PLDT Home account to send your important updates and announcments relating to your subscription to Lionsgate Play.

Why your personal data is shared

For PLDT and LIONSGATE to charge you correctly, PLDT will generate a unique identifier that will be used to represent your PLDT Home account for both parties. If there are changes in your Lionsgate Play subscription, both PLDT and LIONSGATE will use this unique identifier to recognize and implement these changes.

When your personal data is shared with LIONSGATE, we ensure that it is done on a confidential basis, through secured channels, and in compliance with applicable privacy laws and regulations. Your personal data will only be accessed by personnel on a need-to-know basis.

Please note that your use of Lionsgate Play entails a separate agreement between you and LIONSGATE to which PLDT is not a party to. Your Lionsgate Play account will be governed by LIONSGATE’s Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy. For more information, you may visit https://lionsgateplay.com/en/termsandconditions.

This is why we strictly enforce this Privacy Notice within PLDT and have implemented technical, organizational, and physical security measures that are designed to protect your information from unauthorized or fraudulent access, alteration, disclosure, misuse, and other unlawful activities. Your data is also protected from other natural and human dangers. Our service providers must likewise comply with our technical, organizational, and/or physical security requirements, as may be applicable.
