Data Collection
At bCasino NZ, we prioritize the collection of personal data that is essential for providing and enhancing our services. We gather information directly from users when they create accounts, make transactions, or interact with our platform. This data includes personal details such as names, addresses, and payment information. Additionally, we may collect data automatically through cookies, log files, and other tracking technologies, which capture users’ device details, IP addresses, and browsing activities. We also obtain information from third parties, such as payment processors and social media platforms, to verify identities and ensure compliance with legal obligations. All data collection is conducted lawfully, with users’ consent where required, ensuring transparency and adherence to applicable regulations.
Data Uses
The personal data we collect is utilized for various purposes, primarily to provide, maintain, and improve our services. This includes processing transactions, managing accounts, and offering customer support. We also use data to personalize user experiences, ensuring that content, offers, and communications are relevant. Furthermore, data is employed for security purposes, including fraud detection, prevention, and compliance with legal requirements. Analyzing data allows us to understand user behaviors and preferences, enabling us to enhance our offerings. We may also use personal information for marketing purposes, where permitted, keeping users informed about new features, promotions, and updates that may be of interest.
Data Location
Data collected by bCasino is stored on secure servers located within jurisdictions that ensure robust data protection measures. We carefully select data storage locations to comply with applicable data protection laws and industry standards. The geographical location of our servers is chosen to optimize the security, accessibility, and reliability of the data. In certain cases, data may be transferred to and stored in different countries, including those outside the European Economic Area (EEA). When such transfers occur, we implement appropriate safeguards, such as standard contractual clauses, to ensure that the data is protected to the same standards as required by the originating jurisdiction.
Data Retention
bCasino retains personal data for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, including legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. The retention period varies depending on the nature of the data and the purposes for its processing. Once the retention period has expired, or the data is no longer needed, we securely delete or anonymize the information. However, some data may be retained for longer periods if required by law or for legitimate business interests, such as resolving disputes or enforcing our agreements. We regularly review our data retention practices to ensure compliance with applicable laws and regulations.
Data Sharing
We share personal data with third parties only when necessary for the operation of our services or when required by law. This includes sharing information with payment processors, service providers, and regulatory bodies. All third parties we engage are carefully vetted to ensure they maintain the same level of data protection as bCasino. We do not sell or rent personal data to any third parties for marketing purposes. In cases where data is shared outside the European Economic Area (EEA), we ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place, such as standard contractual clauses, to protect the data’s integrity and confidentiality.

Communications
bCasino communicates with users through various channels, including email, SMS, and in-app notifications, to provide updates, promotional offers, and important information related to their accounts. We prioritize user preferences and allow users to manage their communication settings at any time. While we strive to ensure that our communications are relevant and timely, users can opt-out of marketing communications if they wish. However, transactional communications related to account management, security alerts, and service updates are mandatory and cannot be opted out of, as they are essential for the safe and efficient operation of our services.
Data Security
The security of personal data is a top priority at bCasino. We implement a range of technical, administrative, and physical security measures to protect data from unauthorized access, loss, alteration, or disclosure. Our security protocols include encryption, secure socket layer (SSL) technology, firewalls, and regular security assessments. We also restrict access to personal data to authorized personnel only, ensuring that they are trained in handling data securely. Despite our efforts, no system is entirely foolproof, and we continuously monitor our systems for potential vulnerabilities, responding swiftly to any detected threats to minimize risks.
