We are committed to maintaining the confidentiality and security of your data in accordance with applicable privacy legislation in New Zealand and international standards. This document explains our practices regarding information handling and your rights as a user of our gaming platform.
Information Collection and Usage
We collect various types of information to provide and improve our services. Personal data is gathered during account registration, including your name, email address, date of birth, postal address, and contact details. Payment information such as credit card details, bank account numbers, and transaction history is collected when you make deposits or withdrawals. We also gather technical data including IP addresses, browser type, device information, operating system, and gameplay statistics.
The information collected serves multiple purposes within our gaming environment. We use your data to verify your identity and age, process financial transactions, prevent fraudulent activities, improve game performance, personalise your gaming experience, and comply with legal and regulatory requirements. Gameplay data helps us analyse user preferences and optimise the Plinko gaming interface. Communications sent to your registered email address may include account updates, promotional offers, and important service notifications that you can manage through your account settings.
Data Protection and Security Measures
We implement comprehensive security protocols to safeguard your personal information against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. All sensitive data transmitted between your device and our servers is encrypted using industry-standard SSL/TLS protocols. Financial information is processed through secure payment gateways that comply with PCI DSS standards. Our systems employ firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and regular security audits to maintain data integrity.
Access to personal information is restricted to authorised personnel who require it to perform their job functions. Staff members undergo regular training on privacy policy compliance and data handling procedures. We maintain detailed logs of data access and modifications for security monitoring purposes. Regular backups are performed to prevent data loss, and these backups are stored in secure, geographically distributed locations. Our security framework is reviewed and updated periodically to address emerging threats and maintain compliance with evolving privacy standards.
Third-Party Sharing and Disclosure
We share your information with selected third parties only when necessary to operate our services effectively. Payment processors handle financial transactions, identity verification services confirm your age and identity, gaming regulators receive information as required by licensing obligations, customer support platforms store communication records, and analytics providers help us understand user behaviour and improve the Plinko gaming experience.
The following table outlines the categories of third parties and the types of information shared:
| Third Party Category | Information Shared | Purpose |

| Payment Processors | Financial data, transaction history | Process deposits and withdrawals |
| Verification Services | Identity documents, personal details | Age and identity confirmation |
| Gaming Regulators | Account activity, gameplay records | Regulatory compliance |

We do not sell your personal information to third parties for marketing purposes. Information may be disclosed to law enforcement agencies or regulatory bodies when required by law or to protect our legal rights. In the event of a business merger, acquisition, or sale, your data may be transferred to the new entity, and you will be notified of any such change in ownership.
Data Retention and User Rights
We retain your personal information for as long as your account remains active and for a period thereafter as required by legal and regulatory obligations. Account information is typically maintained for seven years following account closure to comply with financial record-keeping requirements and responsible gaming regulations. Gameplay records and transaction histories are preserved to resolve disputes and prevent fraudulent activities. Marketing communications data is retained until you withdraw consent or request deletion.
You have specific rights regarding your personal information. You can access your data by requesting a copy of the personal information we hold about you. You may correct inaccurate or incomplete information through your account settings or by contacting our privacy team. The right to erasure allows you to request deletion of your data, subject to legal retention requirements. You can object to processing of your information for marketing purposes at any time. Data portability enables you to receive your information in a structured, commonly used format. Safe gaming features allow you to set deposit limits, self-exclude, or take breaks from playing Plinko through your account controls.
To exercise any of these rights, contact our privacy officer through the designated channels provided on our platform. We will respond to your request within 30 days and may require identity verification to protect your information from unauthorised access. Certain requests may be subject to legal or contractual restrictions that prevent immediate compliance.
