Sharing Your Personal Information
Velvet Spins Casino does not sell your personal information. However, limited sharing is necessary for operational and legal reasons, including with:
- Payment providers processing deposits and withdrawals.
- Regulatory and law enforcement authorities, where legally required.
- Business partners providing software, fraud prevention, or marketing services under strict confidentiality agreements.
Every third party handling Velvet Spins Casino privacy-related information is bound by contractual obligations reflecting our own data protection standards.
International Data Transfers
Because Velvet Spins Casino operates internationally, personal data may be transferred outside Australia, including to Curaçao or other jurisdictions where our service providers are based. Where such transfers occur, we apply appropriate safeguards to maintain consistent data security and confidentiality standards.
How We Protect Your Data
Information security is central to our operations. Velvet Spins Casino applies industry-standard measures, including:
- 256-bit SSL/TLS encryption for all data transmitted between you and our servers.
- Firewall protection and continuous monitoring against unauthorised access.
- Restricted internal access to personal data, limited to authorised staff only.
- Independent testing of our RNG systems and security infrastructure.
These layered defences form the backbone of our data security commitment and support strong confidentiality across every transaction.
Data Storage and Retention
Our data storage practices follow the principle of keeping information only as long as necessary. Account and financial records are typically retained for the period required by applicable gambling and financial regulations, after which personal information is securely deleted or anonymised, unless a longer retention period is legally mandated.

| Restriction | Limit how your data is processed in certain circumstances |
| Portability | Receive your data in a structured, commonly used format |

This data is handled with the same confidentiality and data protection standards applied across the rest of our platform.
