These legal bases align with our operational requirements and regulatory obligations as an online gaming operator in Australia.
We process your data based on contractual necessity when providing gaming services you have requested, legitimate business interests in operating a secure and compliant platform, and legal obligations imposed by Australian gambling and financial regulations. In certain circumstances, we may also rely on your explicit consent for specific processing activities, particularly those related to marketing communications or optional service features.
Data Sharing and Third Parties
We maintain strict controls over the sharing of personal information and only disclose your data to trusted third parties when necessary for service delivery or legal compliance. Our data sharing practices are governed by comprehensive agreements that ensure recipient organizations maintain equivalent privacy protections and use your information only for specified purposes.
Third-party recipients may include payment processors for transaction handling, identity verification services for compliance purposes, software providers for platform functionality, and regulatory authorities when legally required. We conduct thorough due diligence on all third parties and implement contractual safeguards to protect your personal information throughout any sharing arrangements.

Data Retention and Deletion
We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, meet our legal obligations, and resolve disputes.

Australian gambling regulations require us to maintain certain records for specified periods, which influences our retention practices.
Financial transaction records are typically retained for seven years to comply with anti-money laundering legislation, while gaming activity logs may be kept for shorter periods unless required for ongoing investigations or disputes. When personal information is no longer required, we securely delete or anonymize it using industry-standard methods that prevent recovery or reconstruction of the original data.
