Privacy Notice
Last updated 22 August 2026
LYNQ has not launched. Today this site does one thing with personal information: it records waitlist sign-ups. This notice describes that, and flags what will change when memberships open.
This notice explains how LYNQ handles personal information under the Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act No. 10173), its implementing rules, and the issuances of the National Privacy Commission.
1. Who is responsible
LYNQ is the personal information controller for the data described here.
- Registered entity: [REGISTERED BUSINESS NAME]
- Registered address: [BUSINESS ADDRESS]
- Data Protection Officer: [DPO NAME], privacy@lynqph.com
2. What we collect right now
Only what you type into the waitlist form, plus one derived value:
| Information | Why | Required |
|---|---|---|
| Name | To address you when we make contact | Yes |
| Email address | To tell you when LYNQ opens | Yes |
| Mobile number | Alternative contact, and SMS updates if you give it | No |
| City | To decide which areas to launch in first | Yes |
| Business name | Merchant applications only | Merchants only |
| Whether you are a member or merchant | To route your enquiry | Yes |
| A one-way hash of your network address | To detect repeat and automated submissions | Automatic |
We do not store your network address itself. It is combined with a secret value and hashed, which lets us recognise repeated submissions without keeping something that identifies you or your location.
This site sets no cookies and runs no analytics or advertising trackers. Web fonts are loaded from Google Fonts, which receives your network address as part of serving them.
3. Why we may lawfully hold it
Your consent, given when you submit the form. You may withdraw it at any time (see section 6), and withdrawal will not disadvantage you.
4. How long we keep it
Waitlist entries are kept for up to 24 months from submission, or until you ask us to delete them — whichever comes first. If LYNQ does not launch in your area within that period, the entry is deleted.
5. Who else sees it
Nobody buys this data, because we do not sell or rent it. It is handled by:
- Hostinger, which hosts this website and its storage
- LYNQ staff, who contact you about launch
We may disclose information where the law requires it, such as a lawful order from a court or government authority.
6. Your rights
The Data Privacy Act gives you the right to:
- Be informed that your data is being processed — this notice
- Access a copy of what we hold about you
- Object to processing, or withdraw consent
- Correct anything inaccurate
- Erase or block your data
- Data portability — receive your data in a usable format
- Damages for a violation of your rights
To exercise any of these, email privacy@lynqph.com. We respond within 15 working days. If you are not satisfied, you may complain to the National Privacy Commission.
7. How it is protected
- The site is served over HTTPS
- Waitlist records are stored outside the public web directory and are not reachable from the internet
- Access is limited to staff who need it
- Your network address is hashed rather than stored
No system is perfectly secure. If a breach puts you at real risk of serious harm, we will notify you and the National Privacy Commission within 72 hours of becoming aware, as the law requires.
8. What changes when memberships open
LYNQ is a membership platform, so a live service will process more than a waitlist does — membership and billing records, the discounts you redeem and where, reward points, and give-back contributions. Merchant staff will see a confirmation screen showing your name and membership code when you redeem.
This notice will be replaced before that happens, and you will be asked to agree to the updated version when you sign up. Being on the waitlist does not enrol you in anything.
9. Children
LYNQ is not intended for anyone under 18. We do not knowingly collect data from children. If you believe a child has submitted the form, email privacy@lynqph.com and we will delete it.
10. Changes to this notice
If we change it materially, we will update the date above and — where we hold your contact details and the change affects you — tell you directly.
11. Contact
privacy@lynqph.com for anything about your data, or hello@lynqph.com for everything else.
