Slotsgem Casino is required by law to conduct Know Your Customer (KYC) and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) checks.

6. Cookie Policy
The Slotsgem Casino cookie policy governs how we use cookies and similar tracking technologies on our website. A cookie is a small text file placed on your device when you visit a website. Cookies help us remember your preferences, analyse site traffic, and deliver targeted content. Our use of cookies falls into the following categories:
6.1 Essential Cookies
These cookies are strictly necessary for the website to function correctly. They enable core features such as player login sessions, security, and account management. Without them, Slotsgem Casino cannot operate properly. Because they are essential, they cannot be disabled through our cookie policy controls.
6.2 Analytical Cookies
Analytical or performance cookies collect anonymised information about how players use our site — which pages are visited most, how long sessions last, and where technical errors occur. This data helps us continuously improve the platform. We use third-party analytics tools (such as Google Analytics) that may set their own cookies.
6.3 Functional Cookies
Functional cookies remember your personalised settings, such as preferred language, currency, and game lobby layout. They improve your experience by avoiding the need to reconfigure preferences on each visit.
6.4 Marketing Cookies
With your consent, marketing or advertising cookies are used to deliver promotional content relevant to your interests, both on our site and on third-party platforms. These cookies track your browsing behaviour to build a profile used for targeted advertising. You may withdraw consent at any time via the cookie policy consent manager available on our site.
6.5 Managing Your Cookie Preferences
You can manage or disable cookies at any time through your browser settings or through our on-site consent tool. Note that disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of the Slotsgem Casino platform. For full details, consult our standalone cookie policy page or contact [email protected].
7. Sharing Personal Data With Third Parties
Slotsgem Casino does not sell your personal information to third parties. However, we do share user data with trusted partners in limited, clearly defined circumstances:
7.1 Payment Providers
To process transactions, we share relevant financial personal data with payment service providers including card networks (Visa, Mastercard), e-wallet operators (Skrill, Neteller), prepaid voucher providers (Paysafecard, Neosurf), and cryptocurrency processors. These providers operate under their own privacy frameworks and are contractually bound to protect your personal information.
7.2 Regulatory Authorities
We may be required by law to disclose user data to regulatory authorities, law enforcement agencies, or government bodies in Australia or Curaçao. Such disclosures are made strictly in accordance with applicable law and solely to the extent required.
7.3 Identity Verification and AML Partners
Third-party identity verification and fraud prevention services receive necessary identification data to conduct KYC and AML checks on behalf of Slotsgem Casino. These partners are bound by strict confidentiality and data protection agreements.
7.4 Technology and Software Providers
Our platform relies on software and infrastructure providers — including game studios such as Pragmatic Play, Evolution Gaming, Play'n GO, NetEnt, Microgaming, Yggdrasil, Hacksaw Gaming, Push Gaming, Spribe, Red Tiger, Nolimit City, and Relax Gaming — who may process limited technical data in the course of delivering their services. These providers act as data processors under binding contractual arrangements that impose rigorous data security standards.
7.5 Marketing Affiliates
Where you have been referred to Slotsgem Casino by a marketing affiliate, we may share limited tracking data with that affiliate solely to attribute the referral. No sensitive personal data is shared for this purpose.
8. International Data Transfers
Because Slotsgem Casino operates internationally, your personal data may be transferred to and processed in countries outside Australia, including Curaçao and countries where our technology partners are located. When we transfer user data internationally, we ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place, such as standard contractual clauses, binding corporate rules, or transfers to jurisdictions that provide an adequate level of data protection as recognised by the relevant authorities. We are committed to ensuring that your personal information remains protected regardless of where it is processed.
9. Data Security
Slotsgem Casino data security is maintained through a comprehensive set of technical and organisational measures designed to protect your personal information from unauthorised access, loss, alteration, or disclosure. Our information security framework includes:
- 256-bit SSL/TLS encryption on all data transmissions between your device and our servers
- End-to-end encryption for sensitive financial and identification data
- Firewall protection and intrusion detection systems
- Access controls ensuring only authorised personnel can access personal data
- Regular security audits and penetration testing
- RNG certification by independent testing laboratories, confirming the fairness and integrity of our game outcomes
- Staff training on data protection and confidentiality obligations
Despite our robust data security protocols, no system can guarantee absolute information security. In the event of a personal data breach that poses a risk to your rights and freedoms, we will notify the relevant authorities and affected players promptly in accordance with our legal obligations.
10. Data Storage and Retention Periods
The Slotsgem Casino data storage policy ensures that your personal information is kept only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by law. The following retention periods apply:
| Data Category | Retention Period |
|---|---|
| Account registration data | Duration of account + 5 years after closure |
| KYC / identity verification documents | Minimum 5 years after account closure (AML requirements) |
| Financial transaction records | 7 years (tax and regulatory compliance) |
| Gaming activity logs | 5 years from the date of the relevant activity |
| Marketing consent records | Until consent is withdrawn + 3 years |
| Technical and log data | 12 months rolling |
| Support correspondence | 3 years from the date of the last interaction |
Upon expiry of the applicable retention period, personal data is securely deleted or anonymised. Our data storage systems are located in secure data centres that meet internationally recognised information security standards.
11. Your Privacy Rights
Under the Australian Privacy Act 1988, the Australian Privacy Principles, and (where applicable) the GDPR, you hold a robust set of privacy rights in relation to the personal data held by Slotsgem Casino. These privacy rights include:

11.3 Right to Deletion ("Right to Be Forgotten")
You may request the deletion of your personal information where it is no longer necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, where you have withdrawn consent, or where the processing was unlawful. Note that we may be required to retain certain data to comply with legal obligations (for example, AML record-keeping requirements) even if you request deletion.
11.4 Right to Restriction of Processing
You may ask us to suspend data processing of your personal data in certain circumstances — for example, while we verify the accuracy of data you have contested, or pending an objection decision.
11.5 Right to Data Portability
Where technically feasible and legally permitted, you may request a structured, machine-readable copy of the personal data you have provided to Slotsgem Casino, so that you can transfer it to another service provider.
11.6 Right to Object
You have the right to object to the processing of your personal information where we rely on a legitimate interest as our legal basis. You also have an unconditional right to object to the use of your data for direct marketing purposes.
11.7 Right to Withdraw Consent
Where our data processing is based on your consent (for example, marketing communications or certain cookies), you may withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing that took place before the withdrawal.
