Legitimate interest - Regarding the legal basis, this means that We process your data in order to operate and control Our Company, in order to ultimately provide you with the best service and experience We can in any way. Before We exercise this right, We ensure that We assess the potential impact such treatment may have on you and your rights. Therefore, We do not use a method where your rights and interests as a "data subject", override Our interests in processing data.

  4. Consent- Your consent is used as a legal reason for processing your data, We only process your data as long as We have your consent to do so. If at any time you feel that you no longer wish to have your data processed, We will no longer do so. However, this does not affect any processing of personal data that We have performed with your consent before you have cancelled your consent. Please see section 8 of this Privacy Policy for more information on how to cancel your consent.

  • Marketing activities of our business partners - we never share your personal data with our business partners for their own marketing activities without your consent.  
  • AML and Social Responsibility– The Company is committed to providing you with the safest gaming environment We can create in any way. For that reason, We may process certain personal data that relates to you to a level that exceeds the legal requirements slightly but is done for your safety and peace of mind. We have a legitimate interest in doing so, as We feel responsible for your online security, and We can assure you that none of the checks We perform are unnecessarily invasive of your rights and freedoms as a "data subject".

Your personal data will not be processed for purposes other than those for which they were collected. Should further processing be required, we shall perform compatibility assessment (to confirm that any such further purpose is compatible with the initial purpose for which data was collected) and you will be informed of that purpose and provided with all necessary information. For your information, further processing for statistical purposes should be considered to be compatible lawful processing operation.

3. SHARING OF DATA

Due to the nature of Our service, in order to process your data as explained in section 2 of this Privacy Policy, We may need to share your personal data with a number of trusted third parties. These 3rd parties include:

(i)  Game Providers - At times, Our game providers will need access to selected data (such as username and IP address) in order to provide us with the games you play on Our Website.

(ii)  Payment Providers and Related Service Providers - Similarly, We may share some of your personal information with the payment provider you use to make deposits and withdrawals on Our Website.

(iv) Government or Regulatory Authorities - We may, if necessary or authorized by law, provide your personal data to law enforcement agencies, government or regulatory organizations, courts or other public authorities. We try to always inform our customers about legal requirements for their personal information, unless We are prevented from doing so due to legislation or courts or when the request is an emergency. We may contest such claims if We believe the requests are disproportionate, unclear or lack the proper authority, but We do not promise to challenge any request.

(v) Client communication software - We use 3rd party software to help us communicate with you. This software allows us to send emails to you and talk to you on Our Live chat whenever you have any questions.

(vi)  AML and anti-fraud tools - We use third party software to perform certain AML and fraud verification checks, which in this case are necessary to comply with Our legal obligation.

We always ensure that a third party who has access to your personal data is obliged to respect the security of your personal data, and always process it in a lawful manner, as well as in accordance with our Privacy Policy and strict contractual provisions. We do not allow any third party service provider to use your personal data for their own purposes, except when your personal data is shared with yet another data controller, such as for example, the governmental and regulatory authorities who could request your personal data to fulfil the public tasks they are entrusted to.

Should your personal data be shared with third parties who are Our data processors in the sense of the GDPR, such sharing is solely carried out for the specific purposes and in accordance with Our instructions as Data Controller and on Our behalf, and such third parties may only use your personal data to the extent to which We ourselves are entitled. Furthermore, in all cases, We strive to ensure that We do not share more data than is necessary for the service providers to carry out the processing activities in accordance with Our instructions.

4. JOINT CONTROLLERS

The Company can act as a joint controller when, together with one or more organizations, it jointly determines the purpose and means of processing personal information. In such cases, the joint controllers shall enter into a joint-controllership arrangement setting out the obligations and responsibilities of each party, and you will be informed about this arrangement in due time.

5. TRANSFERS OF PERSONAL DATA

Some of the service providers mentioned in section 3 above may be based in countries that are not part of the European Economic Area (“EEA”). This may mean that your data may be processed in a location outside the EEA. Whenever a transfer of your personal data is made to a data processor or a data controller based outside the EEA, We always ensure that your data is protected in the same way as it stays in the EEA. To ensure the protection of your data, We will implement at least one of the following safeguards:

(I) Adequacy basis - We ensure that We transfer your personal data to countries that provide an adequate level of data protection in accordance with the European Commission decision(s).

(II) Standard Contractual Clauses - When a data processor or data controller is not based in a country benefiting from an adequacy decision, We may use special contracts, known as standard contractual clauses, which are model contracts approved by the European Commission. These contracts also ensure that personal data is afforded the same protection as it is in the EEA. In accordance with the Court of Justice of the European Union Schrems II case law, we shall implement complementary measures (technical, contractual or organisational), in addition to the Standard Contractual Clauses, if necessary and/or where relevant.

6. AUTOMATED DECISION MAKING

When establishing and implementing our business relationships, We do not use automated decision making. If We use this method in individual cases, i.e. only when the processing activities based on automated decision-making are permissible under the exceptions within the GDPR, these operations shall be subject to suitable safeguards to protect your rights and freedoms. Most importantly, you will be provided (i) the appropriate information, (ii) the right to obtain human intervention on the part of the controller, (iii) the right to express your point of view, (iv) the right to obtain an explanation of the decision reached after such assessment and (v) the right to contest the decision, unless prohibited by applicable law.

7. DATA SECURITY MEASURES

The Company always strives to ensure that your personal data is secure, both in Our hands and in the hands of any third party to whom we may have passed on your personal data. Internally, We have implemented a number of technical, contractual, as well as organizational measures, to ensure that your personal data is not accidentally lost, used, accessed in an unauthorized manner, altered or disclosed. We also ensure that access to your personal information is determined on a "need-to-know" basis, which means that only people with direct needs to access your personal data will have access to them. In addition, anyone who has access to your personal data has a duty of confidentiality.

We also have procedures in place to deal with any suspected or actual personal data breaches. We will inform both you as a "data subject" and the regulatory authority affected by such data security breaches when it is legally necessary to do so, and we will maintain a list of any such breaches.

8. DATA RETENTION

The Company will only retain your personal data for as long as it is necessary to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected. Some objectives may include the satisfaction of any legal, accounting or reporting requirements.

When determining how long a retention period is appropriate for your personal data, We take into account various factors, such as the nature and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of unauthorized use or disclosure of such data, the purpose We collected and processed such data for and applicable laws and/or legal requirements imposed on Us. 

For example, in Malta, We are required by Anti Money Laundering law to store your personal data for a minimum period of five (5) years after Our business relationship is terminated. In the UK, in accordance with the Ordinary code provision 3.5.4 of the LCCP, your personal shall be retained for AML purposes for seven (7) years. The termination of Our business relationship takes effect on the day your account with Us is officially closed.

Another example, the accounting and financial documents should be kept for ten (10) years in accordance with the Companies Act - Article 163(5) (Malta).

You are welcome to contact our DPO using the contact information provided further up for further information about Our storage periods.

You may submit your objections to the processing of your personal data on the grounds of the above-mentioned legitimate company interests by contacting our DPO.

(V) Request a Restriction on the Processing of Your Personal Data - You may ask Us to temporarily suspend the processing of your personal data in one of the following cases: (a) When you want Us to determine the accuracy of your data, (b) when Our use of your data is not in accordance with the law, but you do not want Us to delete it, (c) when you need Us to store your personal data, even when it is no longer necessary for Us to establish, exercise or defend legal claims, or (d) when you have objected to the processing of your personal data, but We need to verify whether We have overriding legitimate reasons for disregarding your request.

(VI) Request Transfer of Your Personal Data (i.e. data portability) - This means that you may request us to transfer certain data about you that We have processed to a third party. This right only applies to data acquired through automated sources that you originally gave Us consent to use, or where We used your data, to perform Our obligations under a contract with you.

In addition, you can withdraw your consent from marketing through the ‘opt-out’ unsubscribe button provided in the email you receive from us.

(VIII) File a complaint with a supervisory authority - As explained in section 1 (b) of this Privacy Policy.

We will do our utmost to respond to all legitimate requests within a one-month timeframe from the submission of a request. If your request is particularly complex, or if you have made multiple requests in a certain period, it may take us a little longer.
