Privacy Policy
Pokiesurf Casino is committed to protecting the personal information of all users who access our online gaming platform. This privacy policy outlines how we collect, use, store, and protect your data in accordance with Australian privacy legislation, including the Privacy Act 1988 and the Australian Privacy Principles. By using our services, you acknowledge that you have read and understood the terms set forth in this document.
Information Collection and Usage
We collect various types of information to provide and improve our services to Australian players. Personal information is gathered during account registration, including your full name, date of birth, residential address, email address, and telephone number. This data is essential for identity verification, age confirmation, and compliance with Australian gambling regulations. Financial information such as payment card details, bank account information, and transaction history is collected to process deposits and withdrawals securely.
Technical data is automatically collected when you use our platform, including IP addresses, browser type, device information, operating system, and gameplay patterns. This information helps us enhance user experience, detect fraudulent activity, and ensure safe gaming practices. We also collect communication records when you contact our customer support team through email, live chat, or telephone. All information collected is used solely for legitimate business purposes, including service delivery, fraud prevention, regulatory compliance, and customer support.
Data Protection and Security Measures
Pokiesurf Casino employs industry-standard security protocols to safeguard your personal and financial information. All sensitive data transmitted between your device and our servers is encrypted using SSL (Secure Socket Layer) technology with 256-bit encryption. Our payment processing systems comply with PCI DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard) requirements to ensure secure financial transactions.
Access to personal information is restricted to authorised personnel who require the data to perform their job functions. Our staff members are bound by strict confidentiality agreements and receive regular training on data protection practices. We maintain secure servers located in protected facilities with multiple layers of physical and digital security controls. Regular security audits and vulnerability assessments are conducted to identify and address potential risks to your information.

Information Sharing and Disclosure
We respect your privacy and do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties for marketing purposes. However, certain circumstances require us to share limited information with trusted partners and regulatory authorities. Payment processors and financial institutions receive necessary transaction details to facilitate deposits and withdrawals. These third parties operate under strict confidentiality agreements and are prohibited from using your information for any purpose other than processing payments.
Regulatory bodies and licensing authorities may request access to player information to ensure compliance with Australian gambling laws and regulations. We cooperate fully with law enforcement agencies when legally required or to prevent fraud and criminal activity. Identity verification services may receive personal details to confirm your age and identity as mandated by responsible gambling legislation. In the event of a business transfer, merger, or acquisition, your information may be transferred to the new entity, but the same privacy protections will continue to apply.
