Privacy Policy - Protecting Your Data and Ensuring Secure Gaming
Privacy & Management of Personal Data
Our primary objective at Pirate Spot is to make things easy and comfortable for our clients, and part of that is being open, honest, and transparent about the information we gather as well as how and why we utilize it. For this reason, we go into detail on this page
Whether you visit us, make a deposit, or play one of our games, our policy outlines how we utilize your personal information. Please take the time to carefully read this policy, as it contains information you might not already be aware of on your data privacy rights, the situations in which we disclose and receive information about you, and how we use it to customize the marketing materials you receive.
Please be aware that all of our staff members are regularly trained in information security and must abide by internal policies and procedures as well as privacy obligations when handling your data.
We will let you know if there are any significant changes to this policy.
The Types of Information We Collect
Personal and non-personal information are the two categories of data and information that we gather from our clients:
- Personal Information is capable of identifying a specific person. We gather information from you directly through our services, including your phone number, full name, email address, home address, date of birth, payment method (e.g., credit card number), and any other financial data we may require to deliver our services. Additionally, we gather information about your activities on the Services (such as pages viewed, internet browsing, clicks, actions, etc.) and Personal Information from your device (such as IP address and geolocation data);
- Non-personal Information is unidentified and personal data that may be collected or made available to you via the use of the Services. In order to improve the functionality of our Services, non-personal information may be gathered, such as your aggregated usage data and technical data sent by your device, including specific software and hardware information (such as the operating system and browser type your device uses, language preference, access time, and the domain name of the website from which you linked to the Services; etc.).
For as long as it is merged, information that has been mixed with non-personal information will be considered personal information.
Why We Use Your Personal Information
We utilize your personal data for marketing, legal compliance, website performance tracking, and the delivery of goods and services. Certain rights are granted by each category and may be used as follows:
- Delivering our services and goods. We utilize your personal data to facilitate customer support, account creation, online casino participation, and website use. Your information is shared with outside agencies that work for us in order to manage the functionality of our website;
- To enhance the functionality of the website, we employ traffic analysis and cookies. If you have given your consent for the processing of your data, you can revoke it at any time by writing to the contact information listed in this policy or by following the appropriate procedures (such as unsubscribing from marketing). The lawfulness of processing your data up until its revocation is unaffected by your withdrawal of consent. We distribute offers and promotions by email, SMS, or online with your permission. Your information is never shared with third parties for marketing purposes. You can change your selections or revoke consent.
Sharing Your Personal Information
In the event that we are required by law or regulation to share or disclose your personal information, we may do so:
- To adhere to the terms of this policy and any other agreements;
- To make it easier for third-party software providers, among others, to provide the products and services you have requested;
- If, at our sole discretion, it is discovered that you have committed any kind of dishonesty or attempted to deceive us or other service users, including but not limited to payment fraud or game manipulation;
- For research on addiction prevention (anonymized data will be provided); or, with your permission, to protect the rights, property, or safety of our clients, ourselves, or anybody else.
How Long Do We Keep Your Information?
Depending on why we initially collected it, why we process it, and any applicable legal requirements, we may retain different categories of personal information for varying amounts of time. When determining the duration of data retention and deletion, we consider a number of factors, such as relevant gambling and gaming regulations and standards, anti-money laundering, taxation, payment processing and complaint handling, the need to prevent or detect criminal activity or other misuse of our services, and audit requirements. Some of your personal information will need to be kept on file for a while after you stop being a customer in order to meet our requirements. We securely erase or anonymize information after we no longer need it to meet the aforementioned standards.
Safety
We are aware of the importance of security and the procedures needed to safeguard information. Every piece of personal information we get straight from you is kept in a password-protected, encrypted database on our secure network, which is guarded by the most recent firewall software. Pirate Spot uses the most recent 128-bit Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption technology while the data is in transit to guarantee that private information is sent safely over the internet to our secure server, which is guarded by the newest firewall. Additionally, we take precautions to guarantee that our agents, subsidiaries, affiliates, and vendors are using the proper security procedures.
