Candyland Casino Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how Candyland Casino collects, uses, stores and discloses personal information when you visit our website, create an account, use our services or contact us. It is intended for customers in Australia and should be read together with our applicable terms and responsible gambling information.
Candyland Casino respects the privacy of its customers and aims to handle personal information in a transparent and responsible way. By using our services, you acknowledge that information may be processed for the purposes described below, subject to applicable privacy and data protection requirements.
Information We Collect
The information we collect depends on how you interact with Candyland Casino. Some information is provided directly by you, while other information is collected automatically when you use our website or services.
- Identity details, such as your name, date of birth and information used to confirm that you are at least 18 years old.
- Contact details, including your email address and other information you provide when requesting assistance.
- Account information, such as login details, preferences, account activity and communications with our support team.
- Verification and compliance information needed to help prevent fraud, money laundering, unauthorised access and the use of accounts by ineligible persons.
- Transaction information relating to deposits, withdrawals, wagers, bonuses and other account activity. Payment card or banking information may be handled by approved payment providers rather than stored directly by us.
- Technical information, including device type, browser details, operating system, IP address, general location data and information about how you use our website.
- Information you submit voluntarily, such as feedback, complaints, survey responses or records of correspondence.
You may choose not to provide certain information, but this could prevent us from creating an account, processing transactions, meeting verification requirements or providing particular services.
How We Use Your Information
Candyland Casino uses personal information for legitimate business, contractual, security and compliance purposes. The purposes may include:
- Creating and administering your account.
- Confirming your identity, age and eligibility to use our services.
- Processing deposits, withdrawals, payments, promotions and account requests.
- Providing customer support and responding to questions, complaints or other communications.
- Operating, maintaining and improving the website, games and related services.
- Monitoring activity for fraud prevention, account security, responsible gambling measures and the detection of unusual or prohibited conduct.
- Sending service messages, account notices and other communications necessary to operate your account.
- Sending promotional communications where permitted and where you have provided any consent that may be required. You can usually opt out of marketing messages by using the available unsubscribe option.
- Keeping records, managing risks, resolving disputes and complying with applicable legal or regulatory obligations.
We do not use personal information for purposes that are incompatible with the reason it was collected unless permitted by law or explained to you at the relevant time.
Cookies and Similar Tools
Our website may use cookies, pixels, local storage and related technologies. These technologies are small data files or codes that help a website recognise a device, remember settings and understand how visitors use online services.
- Essential technologies support account access, security, navigation and core website functions.
- Performance technologies help us identify errors, measure traffic and improve the user experience.
- Preference technologies remember choices such as language, display settings or session information.
- Marketing technologies may help assess advertising activity or present more relevant promotional content, where permitted.
Your browser may allow you to block or delete cookies. Disabling some cookies can affect website functionality, including sign-in, preferences or other account features. Where a consent choice is required, available controls will be presented through the website or your browser settings.
When Information Is Shared
We may disclose personal information where reasonably necessary to operate Candyland Casino, protect customers and comply with applicable obligations. Information may be shared with service providers that process it on our behalf, including technology providers, payment processors, identity verification services, fraud prevention specialists, customer support providers, analytics providers and professional advisers.
These providers are expected to handle information only for authorised purposes and to apply appropriate safeguards. We may also disclose information to law enforcement bodies, courts, regulators, government agencies or other parties where disclosure is required, authorised or reasonably necessary to protect rights, safety, property or the integrity of our services.
If Candyland Casino is involved in a business transaction, such as a restructuring, sale, merger or transfer of assets, personal information may be disclosed to relevant parties as part of that transaction. We do not sell personal information in the ordinary meaning of that term.
Keeping Data Secure
Candyland Casino uses reasonable technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal information against unauthorised access, loss, misuse, alteration or disclosure. Measures may include access controls, authentication procedures, monitoring, secure transmission methods and internal handling standards.
No online service can guarantee complete security. You are responsible for keeping your account credentials confidential and should notify us promptly if you believe your account or device has been accessed without authorisation. We may restrict access, suspend an account or take other protective action when a security risk is identified.
How Long We Keep Information
Personal information is retained only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, including account administration, customer support, dispute resolution, security monitoring and record keeping. The appropriate retention period depends on the type of information, the reason it was collected and any applicable legal or operational requirements.
When information is no longer required, we may securely delete it, anonymise it or place it beyond ordinary use. Some information may remain in backup systems for a limited period before being overwritten or securely removed. Retention may continue after an account is closed where necessary to address unresolved matters, prevent fraud, enforce agreements or meet applicable obligations.
Your Privacy Choices
Depending on your circumstances and applicable law, you may have rights or choices concerning personal information held by Candyland Casino. These may include requesting access to information, asking for inaccurate information to be corrected, withdrawing consent where processing relies on consent, or objecting to certain uses of information.
- You may review and update certain account details through available account tools.
- You may opt out of promotional communications while continuing to receive essential service messages.
- You may ask questions about how your information is handled or request further details about a particular use.
- You may request deletion or restriction in circumstances where this is available under applicable requirements.
Requests may require reasonable identity verification to protect your account and other customers. We may be unable to fulfil a request, or may retain particular information, where doing so is necessary for security, legal, contractual or other permitted reasons. We will explain relevant limitations where appropriate.
Third-Party Websites and Services
The Candyland Casino website may contain links, integrations or features supplied by third parties. These services can include payment solutions, verification tools, advertising platforms, social features and websites operated independently from Candyland Casino.
Third parties may collect and use information under their own privacy notices. We encourage you to review those notices before submitting information or using an external service. This policy does not govern the privacy practices of organisations that operate outside our control.
Where a third party processes information for Candyland Casino, we take reasonable steps to require appropriate handling and security. That relationship does not necessarily mean that every third-party service is controlled by us.
International Data Handling
Some of our service providers, technology systems or business partners may be located outside Australia. As a result, personal information may be accessed, stored or processed in another country when necessary to provide services, process payments, maintain systems or perform security and support functions.
International handling may be subject to privacy protections that differ from those in Australia. Where appropriate, Candyland Casino considers the nature of the information, the service involved and the safeguards available before permitting an overseas provider to process personal information. By using our services, you acknowledge that international processing may occur as described in this policy.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy when our services, technology, business arrangements or applicable requirements change. The revised version will be published on the relevant website page and will apply from the stated or implied effective date.
We recommend reviewing this page periodically. If a change materially affects how personal information is used, we may provide additional notice through the website, by email or through another appropriate communication channel where reasonably practical.
Contact and Privacy Enquiries
If you have a question about this Privacy Policy, want to raise a privacy concern or wish to make a request regarding your personal information, please contact Candyland Casino at [email protected]. Please provide enough detail for us to understand your request, while avoiding unnecessary disclosure of sensitive information in your initial message.
We will review enquiries within a reasonable period and may request information to verify your identity before discussing an account or personal data. If your concern cannot be resolved informally, you may be entitled to pursue other options available under applicable privacy requirements.
