At Slotsgem Casino, protecting the personal data and privacy of every player is a fundamental commitment, not merely a legal obligation. This Slotsgem Casino privacy policy has been prepared in accordance with the Australian Privacy Act 1988, the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs), and — where applicable — the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). It explains in plain language exactly what personal information we collect, why we collect it, how we use and store it, who we share it with, and what privacy rights you hold as a registered member of our platform. Whether you are playing on desktop, on the Android APK, or via the iOS Progressive Web App, this document governs the handling of your user data across every touchpoint. We encourage you to read it carefully and to contact our dedicated support team if you have any questions about data protection, information security, or your individual rights.
1. Identity of the Data Controller

- E-mail: [email protected]
- Support e-mail: [email protected]
- Response time: within 12 hours for standard enquiries; within 30 days for formal privacy requests

2.7 Sensitive Data
In limited circumstances — for example, when processing a self-exclusion request linked to problem gambling — Slotsgem Casino may process sensitive personal information relating to health. We handle such data with heightened care and collect it only with your explicit consent or where permitted by law.
2.8 Data Received from Third Parties

3. Methods of Data Collection
Slotsgem Casino gathers user data through the following mechanisms:
- Direct submission — information you provide when registering, completing KYC, making a deposit, or contacting support.
- Automated collection — technical data collected automatically as you navigate the site or use the mobile app, including via cookies and similar tracking technologies.
- Third-party sources — verification agencies, payment processors, and fraud-prevention services as described in Section 2.8.
- Publicly available sources — regulatory watchlists (e.g. sanctions lists) consulted for AML compliance.
4. Purposes and Legal Basis for Data Processing
Every data processing activity conducted by Slotsgem Casino rests on a specific legal basis. The table below sets out our principal processing activities and their corresponding legal grounds.
| Processing Purpose | Legal Basis |
|---|---|
| Account creation and management | Performance of contract |
| Provision of casino services and 4,000+ games | Performance of contract |
| Identity verification (KYC) and AML screening | Legal obligation |
| Fraud prevention and data security | Legitimate interests / Legal obligation |
| Responsible gambling tools and player protection | Legal obligation / Legitimate interests |
| Processing payments and withdrawals | Performance of contract |
| Customer support and complaint handling | Performance of contract / Legitimate interests |
| Sending promotional offers and bonuses | Consent |
| Platform analytics and service improvement | Legitimate interests |
| Compliance with tax and regulatory reporting | Legal obligation |
Where processing is based on consent, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing that took place before withdrawal. Where processing is based on legitimate interests, we have conducted a balancing test to ensure those interests do not override your fundamental rights and freedoms.
5. Cookie Policy
The Slotsgem Casino cookie policy governs the use of cookies and similar technologies — including pixel tags, web beacons, and local storage — on slotsgem-au.com. Cookies are small text files placed on your device that allow us to recognise you, remember your preferences, and gather analytical data.
5.1 Types of Cookies We Use
| Cookie Category | Purpose | Can Be Disabled? |
|---|---|---|
| Essential cookies | Enable core site functions: login sessions, security tokens, load balancing. Without these the site cannot operate. | No |
| Analytical cookies | Collect anonymised usage statistics to help us understand how players interact with the platform and improve performance. | Yes (via cookie banner) |
| Functional cookies | Remember your preferences (language, currency, game filters) and personalise your experience. | Yes (via cookie banner) |
| Marketing cookies | Track your browsing behaviour to show you relevant promotional content and measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns. | Yes (via cookie banner) |
When you first visit slotsgem-au.com, a cookie consent banner will appear. You may accept all categories, accept only essential cookies, or manage your preferences individually. You can also update your cookie settings at any time through the "Cookie Preferences" link in the site footer. Most browsers also allow you to control cookies through their settings; however, disabling essential cookies may impair the functionality of the platform.
5.2 Third-Party Cookies
Some of our game providers — including Pragmatic Play, Evolution Gaming, Play'n GO, NetEnt, Microgaming, Yggdrasil, Hacksaw Gaming, Push Gaming, Spribe, Red Tiger, Nolimit City, and Relax Gaming — may set their own cookies when you launch a game. These third-party cookies are governed by the respective providers' own privacy policies, which we encourage you to review.
6. Sharing Personal Data with Third Parties
Slotsgem Casino does not sell your personal data to any third party. We share personal information only where necessary and under strict confidentiality obligations.
6.1 Categories of Recipients
- Payment providers — payment processors and financial institutions that handle your deposits and withdrawals (PayID, Visa, Mastercard, Skrill, Neteller, Paysafecard, Neosurf, cryptocurrency exchanges, bank transfer intermediaries). Shared data: transaction details, identity verification status.
- KYC and AML service providers — third-party agencies that verify your identity and screen against sanctions lists and politically exposed persons (PEP) databases.
- Regulatory authorities — the Government of Curaçao (our licensing authority), the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC), tax authorities, and law enforcement agencies, when legally required to disclose.
- IT and hosting partners — cloud infrastructure providers and cybersecurity firms that support our platform under strict data-processing agreements.
- Responsible gambling partners — organisations such as Gambling Help Online and similar services, where you request self-exclusion or problem gambling support.
- Affiliate partners — only receive anonymised, aggregated statistical data; they are never given personally identifiable information without your explicit consent.
6.2 Business Transfers
In the event of a merger, acquisition, restructuring, or sale of all or part of Slotsgem Casino's business assets, your personal data may be transferred to the acquiring entity. We will notify you in advance of any such transfer and ensure that adequate data protection safeguards remain in place.
7. International Data Transfers
Because Slotsgem Casino operates internationally, your personal information may be transferred to and processed in countries outside Australia, including Curaçao, the European Economic Area (EEA), and other jurisdictions where our technology partners are located. Where such transfers occur, we implement appropriate safeguards in accordance with the Australian Privacy Principles and, where GDPR applies, the relevant transfer mechanisms (Standard Contractual Clauses, adequacy decisions, or equivalent protections). We will not transfer your user data to a country that does not provide an adequate level of data protection without your explicit consent or unless an exception under the Privacy Act 1988 applies.
8. Information Security and Data Security Measures
Slotsgem Casino data security is built on a multi-layered technical and organisational framework designed to safeguard your personal information against unauthorised access, loss, alteration, or disclosure.
8.1 Technical Safeguards
- 256-bit SSL/TLS encryption — all data transmitted between your device and our servers is encrypted using industry-standard 256-bit SSL/TLS protocols, ensuring your personal data is protected in transit.
- Data encryption at rest — sensitive records (financial data, identity documents) are stored in encrypted form on secure servers.
- Firewalls and intrusion detection — perimeter and application-level firewalls, combined with real-time intrusion detection and prevention systems (IDS/IPS), monitor for and block malicious activity.
- RNG certification — our Random Number Generators are independently certified by accredited laboratories, ensuring fair play and the integrity of game outcomes.
- Access controls — role-based access ensures only authorised personnel can access your personal data, and only to the extent required for their job function.
8.2 Organisational Safeguards
- Regular staff training on data protection, information security, and confidentiality obligations.
- Documented information security policies and incident response procedures.
- Periodic security audits and penetration testing conducted by independent specialists.
- Mandatory KYC verification before the first withdrawal, protecting both you and the platform from identity theft and fraud.
Despite these measures, no system of transmission over the internet or electronic data storage is completely secure. We encourage you to choose a strong, unique password for your account and never share your login credentials with anyone.
9. Data Retention and Data Storage
Slotsgem Casino data storage policies are designed to keep your personal information for no longer than necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, subject to legal retention requirements.
| Category of Data | Retention Period |
|---|---|
| Account and identity records (KYC documents) | 5 years after account closure (AML legal requirement) |
| Financial transaction records | 7 years (tax and regulatory obligation) |
| Gaming activity logs | 3 years after account closure |
| Customer support communications | 3 years from the date of the last interaction |
| Marketing preferences and consent records | Until consent is withdrawn, then archived for 1 year |
| Cookie and analytics data | 13 months from date of collection |
| Responsible gambling records (self-exclusion) | Duration of exclusion + 5 years |
Upon expiry of the applicable retention period, personal data is securely deleted or anonymised so that it can no longer be associated with an identifiable individual. Where data must be retained for a legal purpose beyond the standard period, we restrict access to that data in the meantime.
10. Your Privacy Rights
As a player registered with Slotsgem Casino, you benefit from a robust set of privacy rights under the Australian Privacy Act 1988 and, where applicable, the GDPR. Slotsgem Casino privacy rights are not simply a formality — we are committed to honouring every request promptly and transparently.

- Right to deletion ("right to be forgotten") — you may request the erasure of your personal data where it is no longer necessary for the purposes collected, where you withdraw consent, or where the processing is unlawful — subject to any overriding legal obligations (e.g. AML retention requirements).
- Right to restriction of processing — you may ask us to restrict data processing in certain circumstances, for example while a correction request is being assessed.
- Right to data portability — where processing is based on consent or contract and carried out by automated means, you may request your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format.

Our responsible gambling programme is supported by our 24/7 live chat team and by partnerships with specialist support organisations.
13. Children's Privacy
Slotsgem Casino strictly prohibits access to, or use of, its platform by persons under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal data from minors.

If you believe a minor has accessed our platform, please notify us immediately at [email protected].
14. Links to Third-Party Websites
