Parents or guardians who suspect a minor is using our platform should report the account immediately through our support channels.

Cross-Border Transfers

To provide our services, some of our technical and payment providers may operate outside the Philippines. In such cases, we ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your data during these transfers.
