This Privacy Policy details the principles and practices followed by 21bit Casino regarding the collection, processing, use, and protection of personal information for users of our website in Australia. By accessing or using the 21bit Casino website, you accept the terms set forth in this Privacy Policy. We are committed to respecting your privacy and complying with the applicable data protection regulations, including the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs).
1. Information Collection
When you use the 21bit Casino website, we may collect various types of personal and technical information. This may include information you provide directly when registering an account, such as your full name, residential address, date of birth, contact details (email address and phone number), and payment information. Additionally, we collect technical data such as IP addresses, browser types, device information, and usage data through cookies and similar technologies. This information is necessary for providing gaming services, ensuring compliance with legal obligations, and enhancing site security and functionality.
2. Use of Personal Information
21bit Casino uses collected personal information for several essential purposes. These include verifying your identity for registration and account management, processing deposits and withdrawals, facilitating responsible gambling measures, and ensuring the security and integrity of our gaming environment. We also use your information to communicate important service updates, promotional offers (when permitted), and to fulfil obligations under anti-money laundering (AML) and counter-terrorism financing (CTF) regulations. All processing is conducted in accordance with applicable laws and only for purposes that are legitimate and necessary for the operation of our services.
3. Legal Basis for Processing
The legal bases for processing your personal information are grounded in the need to perform a contract with you (such as providing casino services), compliance with legal obligations imposed on 21bit Casino (such as AML and CTF requirements), and, where necessary, your explicit consent (for example, for marketing communications). We may also process your data to pursue our legitimate interests, provided those interests do not override your fundamental rights and freedoms as outlined in the relevant privacy legislation.
4. Data Sharing and Disclosure
21bit Casino may share your personal information with third-party service providers engaged to perform functions on our behalf, such as payment processing, identity verification, IT support, and marketing services. These third parties are contractually obligated to handle your information securely and in accordance with privacy laws. We may also disclose personal information to regulatory authorities, law enforcement, or other governmental entities when required by law or to protect our legal interests. No personal data is sold or shared with unrelated third parties for their own marketing purposes.
5. International Data Transfers
Your personal data may be transferred and stored outside Australia, including in jurisdictions that may not provide the same level of data protection as your home country. In such cases, 21bit Casino implements appropriate safeguards, including contractual clauses, to ensure that your information remains protected in accordance with this Privacy Policy and applicable legal requirements.
6. Data Retention
We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, to comply with legal and regulatory obligations, and to resolve any disputes. Upon closure of your account, most data is archived or securely deleted after the expiration of mandatory retention periods, except where further storage is required by law or for legitimate business purposes.
7. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
21bit Casino uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your experience, analyse site usage, and support marketing activities. Cookies are small text files stored on your device that help us remember your preferences, maintain session integrity, and personalise content. You may manage or disable cookies through your browser settings, but this may impact the functionality and performance of the website.
8. Security Measures
We implement robust technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal information from unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These measures include encryption, secure socket layer (SSL) technology, firewalls, regular security reviews, and strict access controls. All employees and partners handling personal data are trained and required to adhere to confidentiality obligations.
9. Your Rights
Australian users have the right to access, correct, or update their personal information held by 21bit Casino. You may also request the deletion of your data, subject to any legal requirements for retention. Requests to exercise these rights can be made by contacting our support team through the methods provided on the website. We will respond to all valid requests within the timeframes established by law, and may require verification of your identity before processing such requests.
10. Marketing Communications
If you have opted in, we may send you information about promotions, new features, or other news related to 21bit Casino. You may withdraw your consent to receive marketing communications at any time by following the unsubscribe instructions included in each communication or by contacting customer support. Opting out of marketing does not affect transactional or service-related communications, which remain necessary for your use of our services.
11. Policy Updates
21bit Casino reserves the right to update or modify this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in our practices, legal requirements, or technological advancements. Any material changes will be communicated through the website or via other appropriate channels. Continued use of the website following the publication of updates constitutes acceptance of the revised Privacy Policy.
