Legal Basis for Processing
Our processing of your personal information is based on one or more of the following legal grounds: consent, performance of a contract, legal obligation, and legitimate interests. Consent is obtained when you voluntarily provide us with personal information, such as when signing up for newsletters or participating in promotions. You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us.
The processing of personal information may be necessary for the performance of a contract to which you are a party. For example, if you register for an account or engage with our services, we need to process your information to fulfil our contractual obligations. In some cases, we may be required to process your data to comply with legal obligations, such as responding to legal requests or regulatory requirements. Lastly, processing may be based on our legitimate interests, provided that such interests are not overridden by your rights and freedoms.

This section outlines the circumstances under which your information may be shared with third parties. We share your data only when necessary to provide our services, fulfil legal obligations, or protect our rights and the rights of others. By being transparent about our data-sharing practices, we aim to ensure that your privacy is respected and safeguarded.
Sharing with Third Parties
We may share your information with third parties under specific circumstances. These include sharing data with service providers, business partners, and affiliates who assist us in operating our website and delivering services to you. For example, we may share information with marketing agencies, payment processors, and customer support providers. These third parties are contractually obligated to use your information only for the purposes specified by us and to protect it in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
We may also share information with third parties for analytical and marketing purposes, but only after ensuring that such data is anonymised and does not directly identify you. Data sharing is essential for maintaining and improving our services, as well as providing you with relevant offers and content. We do not sell or rent your personal information to third parties for their own marketing purposes without your explicit consent.
Legal Obligations
There may be instances where we are required to disclose your information to comply with legal obligations or respond to legal requests. This could include situations where we need to cooperate with law enforcement agencies, regulatory bodies, or court orders. In such cases, we will disclose the information as necessary to comply with legal requirements and protect our legal rights. We may also disclose information to prevent fraud, enforce our terms of service, or protect the safety and security of our users and the public.
We take reasonable steps to ensure that any disclosure of information is limited to what is necessary and appropriate for compliance with legal obligations. Your privacy is important to us, and we will not disclose your personal information without a valid legal basis. If disclosure is required, we will strive to notify you, unless prohibited by law.
International Data Transfers
PayIDCasinos operates in multiple jurisdictions, and as such, your personal information may be transferred to, and processed in, countries other than your own. These countries may have data protection laws that differ from those in your jurisdiction. By using our services and providing us with your information, you consent to the transfer of your data to other countries, including those outside the European Economic Area (EEA).
We take measures to ensure that your information is protected regardless of where it is processed. This includes implementing appropriate safeguards, such as standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission, to ensure the security and confidentiality of your data. Our goal is to provide a consistent level of protection for your personal information, no matter where it is transferred or processed.
If you have any concerns about the international transfer of your data, please contact us. We are committed to addressing your questions and ensuring that your privacy rights are respected.
Data Security
We take the security of your personal information seriously and have implemented a range of technical and organisational measures to protect it from unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. These measures include encryption, firewalls, secure servers, and regular security assessments. Access to your personal information is restricted to authorised personnel who need it to perform their job functions, and they are required to maintain the confidentiality of your data.
Our website uses Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology to encrypt data transmitted between your browser and our servers. This ensures that sensitive information, such as payment details and login credentials, is transmitted securely. We also conduct regular security audits and monitor our systems for potential vulnerabilities. While we strive to protect your information, please be aware that no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Breach Notification
In the event of a data breach that compromises the security of your personal information, we will take immediate action to investigate the incident and mitigate its impact. We will notify you and the relevant data protection authorities as required by law, providing information about the nature of the breach, the data affected, and the steps we are taking to address the issue. Our priority is to minimise any potential harm to you and ensure that appropriate measures are taken to prevent future incidents.
We have procedures in place to respond to data breaches promptly and effectively. If you suspect that your personal information has been compromised, please contact us immediately. We are committed to maintaining the integrity and security of your data and will take all necessary steps to protect your privacy.

Please notify us of any changes to your personal information, such as a change of email address or contact details, so that we can maintain accurate records.
Data Portability and Deletion
In addition to accessing and correcting your information, you have the right to request the transfer of your personal data to another organisation, where technically feasible. This is known as data portability. You also have the right to request the deletion of your personal information under certain circumstances. For example, you may request deletion if your data is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, or if you withdraw your consent and there is no other legal basis for processing.
To request data portability or deletion, please contact us with your specific request. We will evaluate your request and take appropriate action, subject to any legal requirements or restrictions. Please note that in some cases, we may retain certain information for legal or regulatory purposes, such as to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, or enforce our agreements.
