Privacy Policy
King Casino recognises the importance of protecting personal information and maintaining the confidentiality of data provided by users of our online gaming platform. This privacy policy outlines how we collect, process, store, and safeguard personal data in accordance with applicable data protection legislation in the United Kingdom, including the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018. By accessing or using King Casino services, users acknowledge their understanding of the practices described in this privacy policy.
Information We Collect
King Casino collects various categories of personal data necessary for the provision of online gaming services, compliance with legal obligations, and enhancement of user experience. Personal information is gathered through registration processes, gameplay activity, payment transactions, and communications with our support team. The types of data collected include identification details such as full name, date of birth, residential address, email address, and telephone number. Financial information comprises payment card details, bank account numbers, transaction histories, and deposit or withdrawal records. Technical data encompasses IP addresses, device identifiers, browser types, operating systems, and geographical location information. Behavioural data includes gaming preferences, session duration, wagering patterns, and interaction with promotional offers. King Casino may also collect verification documents such as passport copies, utility bills, or driving licences to fulfil regulatory requirements and prevent fraudulent activity. Communication records between users and customer support are retained for quality assurance and dispute resolution purposes.
How We Use Your Information
The personal data collected by King Casino serves multiple legitimate purposes essential to the operation of our online gaming platform and the protection of both users and the business. Information is utilised to create and manage user accounts, process registrations, and verify the identity and age of players in compliance with gambling regulations. Financial data enables the processing of deposits, withdrawals, and other monetary transactions whilst maintaining accurate accounting records. King Casino employs personal information to deliver gaming services, maintain game integrity, and ensure fair play through monitoring of gameplay patterns and detection of irregular activity. Data analysis assists in personalising user experience, recommending relevant games, and tailoring promotional communications to individual preferences. Compliance with legal and regulatory obligations necessitates the use of personal data for Know Your Customer (KYC) procedures, anti-money laundering checks, responsible gambling measures, and reporting to regulatory authorities. Communication data facilitates customer support, resolution of queries or disputes, and delivery of important service updates or changes to terms and conditions. King Casino may process information for fraud prevention, security monitoring, and protection against unauthorised access or malicious activities.
Data Sharing and Third-Party Disclosure
King Casino maintains strict controls over the disclosure of personal information to third parties and shares data only when necessary for legitimate business purposes or legal compliance. The following table outlines the categories of third parties with whom personal data may be shared and the purposes of such disclosure:
| Third Party Category | Purpose of Data Sharing | Data Types Shared |

King Casino ensures that all third-party processors adhere to appropriate data protection standards and contractual obligations. Data transfers to jurisdictions outside the United Kingdom occur only when adequate safeguards are in place, including standard contractual clauses or adequacy decisions recognised by UK authorities. Personal information is never sold to third parties for marketing purposes without explicit consent. In circumstances involving business restructuring, mergers, or acquisitions, user data may be transferred to successor entities, with prior notification provided where reasonably practicable.
Data Security and Retention
King Casino implements comprehensive technical and organisational measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access, accidental loss, destruction, or damage. Security protocols include encryption of data during transmission using SSL/TLS technology, secure storage systems with restricted access controls, regular security assessments and penetration testing, employee training on data protection principles, and incident response procedures for potential data breaches. Multi-factor authentication protects user accounts from unauthorised access, whilst firewalls and intrusion detection systems safeguard network infrastructure. Personal information is retained only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected or to comply with legal, regulatory, or contractual obligations. The following retention periods generally apply to different categories of data:

| Marketing Preferences | Until consent withdrawn plus 3 years | Evidence of consent and preference management |
| Gameplay Data | 7 years from account closure | Responsible gambling monitoring and disputes |
Upon expiry of applicable retention periods, personal data is securely deleted or anonymised in accordance with established data destruction procedures. Users may request earlier deletion of certain data categories where no legal obligation requires continued retention.
Your Privacy Rights
Individuals whose personal data is processed by King Casino possess specific rights under UK data protection legislation. Users have the right to access personal information held about them and obtain copies of data being processed. The right to rectification enables correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal data within reasonable timeframes. In certain circumstances, individuals may exercise the right to erasure (also known as the right to be forgotten) and request deletion of personal information where there is no compelling reason for its continued processing. The right to restrict processing allows users to limit how their data is used whilst disputes or verification processes are ongoing. Data portability rights enable users to receive personal information in a structured, commonly used format and transmit it to another service provider where technically feasible. Individuals may object to processing based on legitimate interests or for direct marketing purposes, including profiling for such purposes. King Casino does not employ automated decision-making or profiling that produces legal effects or similarly significant impacts without human intervention. To exercise any privacy rights, users should submit requests through the designated contact channels provided on the King Casino platform. Identity verification may be required before requests are processed to prevent unauthorised disclosure of personal information. Responses to valid requests are provided within one month of receipt, with possible extensions of up to two additional months for complex requests. Users dissatisfied with how King Casino handles privacy concerns have the right to lodge complaints with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), the UK supervisory authority for data protection matters. King Casino periodically reviews and updates this privacy policy to reflect changes in data processing practices, legal requirements, or business operations. Material changes are communicated to users through prominent notices on the platform or direct communication to registered email addresses.
