When information may be shared
Information may be shared only where there is a legitimate operational, legal, security or service reason. This can include carefully selected service providers that support areas such as payment processing, verification, technical hosting, fraud prevention, communications and customer service.
Where third-party service providers process information on behalf of Winshark Casino Australia, they may be required to handle it only for agreed purposes and with appropriate safeguards.
International processing
Some service providers or technical systems may operate outside Australia. Where information is processed internationally, reasonable measures may be used to support lawful and secure handling consistent with the purpose for which the information was collected.
Winshark Casino Australia does not sell personal information as a standalone product.
Security, retention and account protection
How information is protected
Security measures may include restricted access controls, account authentication procedures, monitoring for unusual activity, secure communication methods and internal processes designed to reduce the risk of unauthorised access, loss or misuse.
No online system can guarantee absolute security. Protect your account by using a unique password, keeping recovery information current and avoiding sign-in on unsecured public devices or networks.
How long information is kept
Information may be retained for as long as reasonably necessary to provide services, resolve disputes, maintain security, meet legal requirements, enforce terms and preserve appropriate business records.
When retention is no longer required, information may be deleted, anonymised or securely archived in accordance with applicable requirements.
