What we do not do

• We do not sell, rent or trade your personal information to anyone.
• We do not run advertising or social media tracking pixels on this site.
• We do not store card numbers. We never see them — we take cash on delivery only.
• We do not ask for your password over the phone, by text or in a message. Nobody from us ever will.

Cookies and similar storage

This site uses two things, and neither tracks you across the internet:

• Your shopping basket is kept in your own browser's local storage so a half-finished order survives a page change. It never leaves your device until you submit the order.
• A dealer session cookie (gi_session), set only if you sign in to the dealer portal. It holds a random identifier, nothing about you, and it expires after fourteen days or when you sign out.

Who else sees your data

Our website and database run on Cloudflare's infrastructure, which means your submission passes through and is stored on their servers. Where we have turned on email notifications, an order summary is sent to our own inbox through an email provider. Beyond that, your details go no further than the people who need them to get your gas to you and to keep our books.

We will disclose information where the law requires it — for example to the BIR, the Department of Energy, or on a lawful order — and not otherwise.

How long we keep it

• Orders and receipts: ten years, because Philippine tax rules require us to keep books and records of sales.
• Messages and quote requests: up to two years, then deleted.
• Unsuccessful dealer applications: one year.
• Rate-limit counters: minutes.

Your rights

Under the Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act No. 10173) you have the right to be informed, to object, to access your data, to correct it, to have it erased or blocked, to damages where you have been harmed, and to data portability. To use any of these, call (084) 217 9118 and ask for the person who handles data requests.

We will answer within a reasonable period. Note that we cannot delete the record of a completed sale before its retention period is up, because keeping it is a legal obligation — but we can remove you from anything we are not required to hold.

If you are not satisfied with how we handle your request, you can complain to the National Privacy Commission.

Security

The site is served over HTTPS. Dealer passwords are stored as salted PBKDF2 hashes, not as readable text, so we could not tell you your own password even if you asked. Access to the order database is restricted to the owner.

No system is perfect. If you believe your information has been exposed, tell us immediately and we will investigate and notify you and the National Privacy Commission where that is required.

Changes

If we change this notice we will update the date at the top. The current version always lives at this address.
