Introduction to the Fat Pirate Casino Privacy Policy

At Fat Pirate Casino, we take your privacy seriously. This Fat Pirate Casino privacy policy explains in plain English how we collect, use, store, and protect the personal data of every player who visits our site at fatpirate-casino-au.com.

We encourage you to read this document carefully. If you have questions or concerns about our data protection practices, our Data Protection Officer is always available at [email protected].

4. Purposes of Data Processing

The Fat Pirate Casino data processing activities are carried out for the following clearly defined and lawful purposes:

5. Legal Basis for Processing Personal Data

Under the Australian Privacy Act 1988 and, where applicable, the GDPR, Fat Pirate Casino relies on the following legal bases for its data processing activities:

• Contractual necessity: processing is required to fulfil our contract with you — namely, to provide the gaming service, manage your account, and handle your financial transactions.
• Legal obligation: processing required to comply with KYC, AML, taxation, and other regulatory requirements imposed by our Curaçao licence and Australian consumer protection legislation.
• Legitimate interests: processing for fraud prevention, data security, platform improvement, and responsible gambling monitoring, where our legitimate interests are not overridden by your fundamental rights and freedoms.
• Consent: for marketing communications, optional analytics tracking, and use of non-essential cookies. You may withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of prior processing.

6. Fat Pirate Casino Cookie Policy

The Fat Pirate Casino cookie policy covers all tracking technologies in use on fatpirate-casino-au.com. Cookies are small text files placed on your device that help us remember your preferences, measure site performance, and deliver relevant content. We use four categories of cookies:

6.1 Essential Cookies

These cookies are strictly necessary for the site to function. They enable you to log in, navigate between pages, and complete transactions securely. Because they are essential to core functionality, they cannot be disabled without preventing access to the platform. Examples include session authentication tokens and security cookies.

6.2 Analytical Cookies

Analytical cookies help us understand how players use Fat Pirate Casino — which pages are visited most often, where users drop off, and how they navigate the site. This data collection allows us to improve the user experience and platform performance over time. These cookies are set only with your prior consent.

6.3 Functional Cookies

Functional cookies remember your preferences, such as your chosen language, currency setting, and preferred game lobby layout. They make your experience more personalised and convenient during future visits to Fat Pirate Casino. These cookies also require your consent.

6.4 Marketing Cookies

Marketing cookies — also called targeting or advertising cookies — track your browsing behaviour to deliver relevant promotional content from Fat Pirate Casino and our trusted partners. These are set only with your explicit consent and may be withdrawn at any time via our cookie policy management panel on the site.

Managing Your Cookie Preferences

When you first visit fatpirate-casino-au.com, a cookie consent banner allows you to accept or reject non-essential cookies by category. You may also change your preferences at any time through your browser settings or the cookie preference centre on our site. Please be aware that disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality and your overall experience of Fat Pirate Casino.

7. Sharing Personal Data with Third Parties

Fat Pirate Casino does not sell your personal data to any third party, ever. However, we do share certain personal information with carefully vetted partners in the following circumstances:

7.1 Payment Service Providers

To process deposits and withdrawals via PayID, Visa, Mastercard, Skrill, Neteller, Paysafecard, Neosurf, Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, and bank transfer, we share the minimum necessary financial and identity data with our payment partners. These providers operate under strict data protection and confidentiality obligations and are never permitted to use your data for their own purposes.

7.2 Identity Verification and KYC/AML Providers

Before processing your first withdrawal, we share your identity documents with accredited KYC and AML verification services to confirm your identity and verify your source of funds. This is a mandatory legal obligation under our Curaçao licence. All providers in this category are bound by rigorous information security and confidentiality agreements.

7.3 Regulatory and Law Enforcement Authorities

We may be required to disclose your personal data to regulatory bodies, law enforcement agencies, or courts where required by law. This includes the Curaçao Gaming Control Board and, where applicable, Australian regulatory authorities such as AUSTRAC.

7.4 Technology and Game Platform Partners

Game providers such as Pragmatic Play, Evolution Gaming, Play'n GO, NetEnt, Microgaming, Yggdrasil, Hacksaw Gaming, Push Gaming, Spribe, Red Tiger, Nolimit City, and Relax Gaming may receive limited technical user data necessary to deliver their games within the Fat Pirate Casino environment. All providers are contractually bound to treat your data with the utmost confidentiality.

7.5 Fraud Prevention and Information Security Services

To protect the integrity of our platform and the safety of our players, we share relevant user data with specialist fraud prevention and information security partners. This enables us to detect and block suspicious activity before it affects your account.

7.6 Marketing and Analytics Partners

Where you have provided explicit consent, we may share limited contact data with carefully selected marketing partners for the delivery of personalised offers and promotions. You may withdraw this consent and opt out of marketing at any time via your account settings or by emailing [email protected].

8. International Data Transfers

Because Fat Pirate Casino is operated from Curaçao and works with global service providers, your personal data may be transferred to and stored in countries outside of Australia. When such international transfers occur, we ensure robust safeguards are in place, including:

• Contractual clauses requiring recipients to protect personal information to Australian Privacy Principles standards or an equivalent level of protection.
• Use of providers certified under recognised international data protection frameworks.
• End-to-end encryption of data in transit using 256-bit SSL/TLS protocols to ensure data security across borders.
• Due diligence assessments of all third-country recipients before any personal data is transferred.

By using Fat Pirate Casino, you acknowledge and consent to these international data storage and transfer arrangements, which are necessary for us to provide our gaming services.

9. Fat Pirate Casino Data Security

Fat Pirate Casino data security is a top operational priority. We implement industry-leading technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. Our comprehensive security framework includes:

• 256-bit SSL/TLS encryption: all data transmitted between your device and our servers is protected using 256-bit Secure Socket Layer (SSL) / Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocols — the same standard used by global financial institutions.
• Firewalls and intrusion detection: robust multi-layered firewall systems and real-time intrusion detection monitor our network continuously.
• Data encryption at rest: sensitive data held in our databases is encrypted to prevent exposure in the unlikely event of a breach.
• Strict access controls: only authorised personnel with a verified legitimate need may access personal information. All access events are logged and regularly audited.
• RNG certification: our Random Number Generators are independently certified by accredited laboratories to ensure fair play, which also supports the integrity of gaming activity data.
• KYC verification: mandatory identity verification before the first withdrawal prevents identity theft and protects player accounts from takeover.
• Two-factor authentication (2FA): available to all players for an additional layer of account security.
• Regular security audits: our systems undergo scheduled penetration testing and vulnerability assessments to identify and remediate risks proactively.

While we apply every reasonable measure to maintain information security, no online system is entirely impenetrable. In the unlikely event of a personal data breach that poses a risk to your rights or freedoms, Fat Pirate Casino will notify affected players and the relevant supervisory authority within the timeframes required by applicable law.

10. Data Retention and Data Storage

Fat Pirate Casino retains your personal data only for as long as is necessary to fulfil the stated purposes in this privacy policy, or as required by law. Our general data storage and retention periods are as follows:

Upon expiry of the applicable retention period, personal data is securely deleted or anonymised so that it can no longer be linked back to any individual. Data storage systems used by Fat Pirate Casino are protected by the same encryption and access controls that apply to active data.

11. Your Privacy Rights

As an Australian player, the Australian Privacy Act 1988 and the Australian Privacy Principles grant you substantial privacy rights regarding your personal data. Fat Pirate Casino fully respects and upholds each of these rights:

11.1 Right of Access

You have the right to request a copy of the personal information we hold about you. We will provide this free of charge within 30 days of your verified request, unless the request is manifestly unfounded or excessive in scope.

11.2 Right to Correction

If any of your personal data is inaccurate, incomplete, or outdated, you have the right to request a correction. Most basic account details can be updated directly through your account settings page.

11.3 Right to Deletion

You may request the deletion of your personal information where it is no longer required for the purposes for which it was collected, or where you withdraw the consent on which processing was based. Please note that we may be required to retain certain data to fulfil legal obligations — for example, AML financial records — even after your request is received.

11.4 Right to Restriction of Processing

You may request that we restrict our data processing activities in specific circumstances — for example, if you contest the accuracy of data we hold, or if you have objected to processing based on legitimate interests while we assess your objection.

11.5 Right to Data Portability

Where our data processing is based on consent or contractual necessity and is carried out by automated means, you have the right to receive your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format. You may also request that we transmit this data directly to another controller where technically feasible.

11.6 Right to Object

You may object to our processing of your personal data where that processing is based on our legitimate interests, including any profiling carried out for direct marketing purposes. Upon receiving your objection, we will cease the relevant processing unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds that override your interests, rights, and freedoms.

11.7 Right to Withdraw Consent

Where our processing is based on your consent — for example, receipt of marketing emails or acceptance of non-essential cookies — you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before the withdrawal.

12. Supervisory Authority — OAIC

When material changes are made, we will notify registered players by email and/or by posting a prominent notice on the site.

We encourage you to review this page periodically to stay informed about how we collect, use, and protect your personal information. The date of the most recent revision will always be displayed at the top of this privacy policy page. Continued use of Fat Pirate Casino after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated document.

15. Responsible Gambling and Data Privacy

At Fat Pirate Casino, our responsible gambling tools are designed with both player welfare and data privacy in mind. When you set deposit limits, bet limits, loss limits, session time limits, cooling-off periods (24 hours, 48 hours, 7 days, or 30 days), or self-exclusions (6 months, 1 year, 5 years, or permanent), that information is treated as sensitive personal data and handled with the utmost confidentiality.

Responsible gambling data is used solely to administer your chosen restrictions and to fulfil our duty of care obligations. It is never used for marketing profiling without your explicit consent. If you need support with problem gambling, our customer service team is available 24/7 via live chat or at [email protected].
