Privacy Policy
Avantgarde Casino is committed to protecting the personal information of all users who access our online gaming platform. This privacy policy outlines how we collect, use, store, and safeguard your data when you interact with our services. We adhere to stringent data protection standards and comply with all applicable regulations governing online gaming operations in the United Kingdom. By using Avantgarde Casino, you acknowledge that you have read and understood the terms set forth in this document regarding the handling of your personal information.
Information We Collect
When you register and use Avantgarde Casino, we collect various types of information necessary to provide our services and ensure compliance with legal obligations. Personal data collected includes your full name, date of birth, residential address, email address, and telephone number. We also gather financial information such as payment card details, bank account information, and transaction history to process deposits and withdrawals. Technical data is automatically collected during your visits, including IP addresses, browser type, device information, operating system, and gameplay statistics. We maintain records of your gaming activity, including games played, wagers placed, winnings, and session duration. Additionally, we collect identity verification documents such as passport copies, driving licences, and utility bills to fulfil our anti-money laundering and Know Your Customer requirements.
How We Use Your Information
The information collected serves multiple essential purposes within our operations. We use your personal data to create and manage your gaming account, process financial transactions, and verify your identity as required by gambling regulations. Your information enables us to provide customer support, respond to enquiries, and resolve any technical issues you may encounter. We analyse gameplay data to detect and prevent fraudulent activity, ensure responsible gambling practices, and identify problem gambling behaviours. Marketing communications, including promotional offers and updates about new games, are sent based on your preferences and consent. We use technical data to improve our platform performance, enhance user experience, and develop new features. Compliance with legal obligations requires us to maintain records for regulatory reporting, age verification, and anti-money laundering checks. Statistical analysis of anonymised data helps us understand user preferences and optimise our game offerings.
Data Sharing and Third Parties
Avantgarde Casino shares your information only when necessary and under strict conditions. We work with payment processors and financial institutions to handle deposits, withdrawals, and currency conversions securely. Identity verification services assist us in confirming your age and identity to comply with gambling regulations. Our technical service providers, including hosting companies, software developers, and analytics platforms, process data on our behalf under contractual obligations to maintain confidentiality. Regulatory authorities and licensing bodies receive information as required by law to ensure compliance with gambling legislation. Law enforcement agencies may access your data when legally mandated or when investigating suspected criminal activity. Marketing partners receive limited information only with your explicit consent to deliver targeted communications. We conduct due diligence on all third parties to ensure they maintain appropriate data protection standards equivalent to our own practices.

Data Security and Retention
We implement comprehensive security measures to protect your personal information from unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. All data transmitted between your device and our servers is encrypted using industry-standard SSL/TLS protocols. Our databases are protected by firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and regular security audits conducted by independent experts. Access to personal information is restricted to authorised personnel who require it to perform their duties, and all staff undergo regular data protection training. We retain your personal data for as long as your account remains active and for a period thereafter as required by gambling regulations and legal obligations. Financial transaction records are maintained for seven years following account closure to comply with anti-money laundering legislation. Gaming history and responsible gambling data are retained for six years to fulfil regulatory requirements. Marketing preferences and communication records are kept until you withdraw consent or request deletion. Upon expiry of the retention period, your data is securely deleted or anonymised beyond recovery. You have the right to request access to your personal information, obtain copies of data we hold, request corrections to inaccurate information, and request deletion of your data subject to legal retention obligations. You may also object to certain processing activities, restrict how we use your information, and withdraw consent for marketing communications at any time through your account settings or by contacting our data protection officer.
Your Rights and Contact Information
Under data protection legislation applicable in the United Kingdom, you possess several rights regarding your personal information held by Avantgarde Casino. You have the right to access all personal data we process about you and receive a copy in a structured, commonly used format. If any information is inaccurate or incomplete, you may request corrections to ensure our records reflect accurate details. Where processing is based on consent or contractual necessity, you have the right to receive your data in a portable format and transmit it to another service provider. You may object to processing carried out for legitimate interests or direct marketing purposes, and we will cease such processing unless compelling legitimate grounds exist. In certain circumstances, you can request restriction of processing while we verify accuracy or assess objections. The right to erasure allows you to request deletion of your personal data when it is no longer necessary for the purposes collected, though this right is subject to legal retention obligations that override deletion requests in many cases. You may withdraw consent for any processing activities based on consent at any time, though this does not affect the lawfulness of processing conducted prior to withdrawal. To exercise any of these rights or if you have questions about how we handle your personal information, you may contact our data protection officer at [email protected] or write to our registered office address. We will respond to all requests within one month of receipt, though complex requests may require an additional two months with notification provided. If you are dissatisfied with how we handle your personal information or our response to your requests, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissionerβs Office, the supervisory authority for data protection matters in the United Kingdom.
