Pistolo Casino Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how Pistolo Casino collects, uses, stores and protects information when you visit our website, create an account, use our gaming services or contact us. It applies to players in Australia and to other visitors who interact with Pistolo Casino online.
By using our website, you acknowledge that information may be handled as described below. Pistolo Casino is intended for people aged 18 years and over. We encourage you to read this policy carefully so you understand our approach to privacy and your available choices.
Information We Collect
We collect information that is necessary to operate the website, provide gaming services, maintain account security and meet our operational responsibilities. The type of information collected depends on how you use Pistolo Casino.
- Account details, including your name, date of birth, email address, username and selected account preferences.
- Identity and verification information that may be needed to confirm your identity, age or eligibility to use particular services.
- Transaction details, such as deposits, withdrawals, payment method information, transaction references and related records. Full payment card details may be handled by an authorised payment provider rather than stored directly by us.
- Technical data, including your IP address, browser type, device information, operating system, language settings and general location information derived from technical signals.
- Usage information, such as pages visited, games viewed, account activity, session dates, navigation patterns and interactions with promotional content.
- Communications that you send to us, including support requests, feedback, complaints and information provided during account enquiries.
Some information may be collected automatically through cookies and similar tools. We may also receive information from service providers that assist with payment processing, fraud prevention, identity checks or website performance.

- Creating and administering your player account.
- Processing deposits, withdrawals and other account transactions.
- Providing games, website features, customer support and account notices.
- Confirming age, identity and account ownership where appropriate.

- Sending service messages, including account, transaction, security and policy communications.
- Providing marketing communications where permitted and where you have not opted out.
- Managing disputes, complaints, audits, risk assessments and potential legal matters.
We process information only for purposes connected with our services or for other purposes that are reasonably compatible with the original collection. Where appropriate, we may ask for additional information or permission before using data in a materially different way.

When Information Is Shared
We do not treat your information as public. Information may be shared with selected recipients when this is needed to provide the service, protect users or operate Pistolo Casino responsibly.
- Technology, hosting and security providers that support the website and its infrastructure.
- Payment processors and financial service providers involved in deposits, withdrawals and transaction screening.

Keeping Data Secure
Pistolo Casino uses administrative, technical and organisational measures intended to protect information against unauthorised access, alteration, loss, misuse or disclosure. These measures may include access controls, account authentication, monitoring, secure transmission methods and restricted staff access.
No online service can guarantee absolute security. You are responsible for keeping your password and account credentials confidential, using a secure device and notifying us if you suspect unauthorised access. We may ask you to complete verification steps before discussing sensitive account information or processing certain requests.
If we become aware of a security incident affecting personal information, we will assess the situation and take steps that are appropriate to the circumstances, including any notifications that may be required.
How Long We Keep Information
We keep information only for as long as it is reasonably needed for the purposes described in this policy. The appropriate period depends on the type of information, the nature of our relationship with you, account activity, security considerations and any dispute or investigation.
Some records may need to be retained after an account is closed for reasons such as transaction management, fraud prevention, dispute resolution, financial reconciliation or the establishment and defence of legal claims. When information is no longer required, we may delete it, anonymise it or securely isolate it from active use.
Backup copies may remain for a limited period while routine systems are updated or overwritten. Access to retained information remains restricted according to its purpose.
Your Privacy Choices
Depending on the circumstances and applicable rules, you may have choices relating to information held by Pistolo Casino. These may include requesting access to personal information, asking for inaccurate information to be corrected, objecting to certain uses or requesting deletion where retention is no longer necessary.
- You may update certain account details through available account settings.
- You may opt out of promotional messages by using an unsubscribe option or by contacting us.
- You may ask for information about the purposes and categories of processing that apply to your data.
- You may raise a concern about how information has been handled.
Some requests may be limited by security, fraud prevention, recordkeeping or other legitimate considerations. We may need to verify your identity before completing a request. If a request cannot be fulfilled in full, we will aim to explain the reason in an appropriate manner.
Services Provided by Others
The Pistolo Casino website may connect with third-party services, including payment solutions, analytics tools, identity verification systems, advertising platforms and social or embedded content. These providers may collect or process information under their own privacy notices.
Links to external websites are provided for convenience and do not mean that Pistolo Casino controls those websites or accepts responsibility for their privacy practices. We recommend reviewing the relevant third-party terms and privacy information before submitting personal data or using an external service.
Third-party providers may use cookies or similar technologies on our website. Their operation may be managed through browser settings, available consent tools or the provider's own controls.
Cross-Border Data Handling
Some companies that support Pistolo Casino may process information in countries outside Australia. This can occur when our technology, payment, security, verification, support or hosting providers operate through international systems.
Where information is transferred internationally, we take reasonable steps to select suitable providers, limit access to the information needed for their role and require appropriate confidentiality and security protections. The safeguards available may vary according to the destination country and the service involved.
By using the website, you understand that information may be accessed or processed across borders as part of providing and securing the service. We continue to review these arrangements as our service providers and systems change.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy when our services, technology, providers or privacy practices change. We may also revise it to reflect operational developments or changes in applicable requirements.
The updated version will be made available on the website with a revised effective date where appropriate. Changes generally apply from the time they are published unless a different application date is stated. We encourage you to review this page periodically, particularly before continuing to use your account after a significant update.
