Privacy Policy

Updated: July 2026

AskBatas gives general legal information, not legal advice. Ito ang simpleng paliwanag kung paano namin hinahandle ang data mo under the Philippine Data Privacy Act (RA 10173).

Anong data ang kinokolekta namin

  • Mga tanong at sagot na natatanggap mo. Pwedeng may personal or sensitive info dito, so wag maglagay ng names, ID numbers, or details na hindi kailangan.
  • Account info kapag nag-sign in ka with Google: iyong email address.
  • Usage data para sa limits at abuse prevention: hashed version ng IP/browser mo (hindi raw IP), plus count ng questions.
  • Support messages na ipinapadala mo sa contact form, kasama ang email, category, subject, at message.
  • Payment transaction records tulad ng checkout reference, status, amount, at biniling pass o credits. PayMongo ang humahawak ng payment credentials; hindi namin sine-save ang bank o e-wallet login details mo.

Bakit namin ginagamit

  • Para sagutin legal questions mo at ipakita kung anong law source ginamit.
  • Para maging patas ang free limits at maiwasan ang abuse.
  • Para gumanda answer quality. Dito lang namin ginagamit data.

Sino nagpo-process

We use providers to run AskBatas: Supabase for database/sign-in, OpenCode / GLM for AI answers, plus hosting. Ipinapadala ang question text sa AI provider para makagawa ng sagot. Processing may happen outside the Philippines, with safeguards.

Gaano katagal namin ito sine-save

Kapag signed in ka, nasa account mo ang question history hanggang i-delete mo ito. Guest questions are kept only in aggregate/hashed form for limits and abuse prevention. Support at payment transaction records ay sine-save lang habang kailangan para sa customer support, fraud prevention, accounting, legal claims, o retention na required ng batas. Kapag hindi na kailangan, dine-delete o dini-deidentify ang personal data.

Rights mo (RA 10173)

Puwede mong makita, i-export, o humiling na i-delete ang personal data mo, subject sa records na kailangan naming panatilihin under applicable law. Kapag signed in ka, magagawa mo ito sa account page mo. For other requests, message us below.

Important reminder

AskBatas is not a law firm and does not give legal advice. Kung serious or specific ang situation mo, kumonsulta sa abogado o free legal aid tulad ng PAO o IBP.
