This includes fraud prevention, network and information security, and improving our services.
  • Consent: In specific situations, we may ask for your explicit consent to process your data, for example, for marketing communications. You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time.

Data Sharing and Disclosure

Kingmaker may share your personal information with third parties under specific circumstances, always with appropriate safeguards:

  • Service Providers: We share data with trusted third-party service providers who assist us in operating our business, such as payment processors, identity verification services, IT and hosting providers, and customer support platforms. These providers are contractually bound to protect your data and only use it for specified purposes.
  • Regulatory and Legal Authorities: We may disclose your information to government bodies, regulatory authorities, and law enforcement agencies when required by law, to comply with legal processes, or to protect our rights, property, or safety, or the rights, property, or safety of others.
  • Fraud Prevention Agencies: To prevent fraud and money laundering, we may share your information with agencies dedicated to these purposes.
  • Group Companies: Your data may be shared with other entities within our corporate group for operational and administrative purposes.
  • Business Transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or a portion of our assets, your personal information may be transferred to the acquiring entity.

We do not sell your personal data to third parties for their marketing purposes.

Data Security

Kingmaker takes the security of your personal data seriously. We implement robust technical and organisational measures to protect your information from unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These measures include:

  • Encryption: We use Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption technology to protect data during transmission.
  • Access Controls: Access to your personal data is restricted to authorised personnel who require it to perform their duties.
  • Firewalls: Our systems are protected by firewalls to prevent unauthorised access.
  • Regular Audits: We conduct regular security audits and vulnerability assessments to identify and address potential weaknesses.
  • Data Minimisation: We only collect and retain data that is necessary for our stated purposes.

While we protect your personal data, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. Therefore, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

Data Retention

Kingmaker retains your personal data only as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, including for satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. The retention period is determined by various factors, including:

  • Legal and Regulatory Obligations: We are required to retain certain data for specific periods to comply with anti-money laundering laws, responsible gaming regulations, and other legal obligations imposed by our licensing authority.

Once the retention period expires, your personal data will be securely deleted or anonymised.

International Data Transfers

Kingmaker operates globally, so your personal data may be transferred to, and stored at, a destination outside of your country of residence, including countries outside the European Economic Area (EEA) that may not offer the same level of data protection. When we transfer your data internationally, we ensure that your personal data is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy and applicable data protection laws. These measures may include:

  • Transferring data to countries deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for personal data by the European Commission.
  • Using standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission to ensure adequate safeguards.
  • Implementing other legally recognised mechanisms for data transfer.

By using Kingmaker's services, you consent to the transfer of your personal data to countries outside your country of residence, where necessary for the provision of our services.

Children's Privacy

Kingmaker's services are not for individuals under the legal gambling age in their respective jurisdiction, which is typically 18 years or older. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If we become aware that we have inadvertently collected personal information from a child, we will delete that information as quickly as possible. If you believe that we might have any information from or about a child, please contact us immediately.
