Privacy Policy

How we collect, use and protect personal data under the Data Privacy Act of 2012 (RA 10173).

Version 2026-10-10 · Effective 10 October 2026. Earlier versions remain on record. Where a change is material, signed-in users are asked to accept the new version before continuing.

What we collect

  • Account data: name, email, phone, company and role.
  • Business data you publish: company profile, products, RFQs and quotations.
  • Technical data: log and usage events needed to run and secure the portal.
  • Records of the policies you accepted, with version and time.

Why we use it

  • To provide your account and the features you request (contract).
  • To keep the portal secure and prevent fraud (legitimate interest).
  • To meet legal obligations.
  • To send marketing emails — only if you separately opt in. You can withdraw at any time.

Sharing

  • Information you publish on a profile or public RFQ is visible to others.
  • Private contact details, payment records and quotations are visible only to the parties concerned and authorised administrators.
  • We use service providers (hosting, email, payment processors) bound to protect your data. We do not sell personal data.

Your rights

  • You may request access, correction, erasure or a copy of your data, object to processing and withdraw consent, and complain to the National Privacy Commission.
  • Acknowledging this notice is not consent to every processing purpose; optional purposes are asked for separately.

Retention and security

  • We keep data while your account is active and as long as needed for legal and dispute purposes, then delete or anonymise it.
  • Access is restricted by role and database security rules.
