7. Data security
Appropriate technical and organisational measures are used to protect personal information from unauthorised access, loss, or misuse. These measures may include secure connections, access controls, monitoring systems, and internal policies governing data handling.
While absolute security cannot be guaranteed, reasonable steps are taken to reduce risk and address potential incidents promptly.
8. International data processing
Due to the use of international infrastructure such as hosting services, analytics tools, and customer support systems, personal information may be processed outside the user’s country of residence. Where this occurs, safeguards are applied to ensure continued protection of personal data.
9. Data sharing and third-party service providers
To operate and secure the platform, Mummys Gold Casino may share limited personal information with third-party service providers that perform specific functions on our behalf.

Personal information is not sold to third parties. Data is shared only to the extent necessary for service delivery, compliance, or security.
10. Affiliate tracking and marketing partners
Where affiliate or marketing programmes are used, tracking technologies may attribute user activity to a specific referral source. This attribution typically relies on technical identifiers, such as cookies or tracking parameters, rather than directly identifiable personal data.
Marketing communications are sent only where permitted by applicable law or where users have provided consent. Users can opt out of promotional messages at any time using the unsubscribe options provided or by contacting support.
11. Data retention
Personal information is retained only for as long as it is required to fulfil its intended purpose or to meet legal and regulatory obligations.

- verification records are retained only as long as necessary for compliance
- support communications may be stored for quality assurance and dispute resolution
Once information is no longer required, it is securely deleted or anonymised.

Users have the right to request access to the personal information held about them, subject to applicable legal limitations. Where appropriate, users may also request correction or deletion of inaccurate or outdated data.
Requests relating to personal data can be made through customer support. For security reasons, identity verification may be required before requests are processed.
Depending on jurisdiction, additional rights may apply, including:
- the right to object to certain types of processing
- the right to restrict processing in specific circumstances
- the right to withdraw consent where processing is based on consent
Requests are handled within reasonable timeframes and in accordance with applicable data protection standards.

This may involve contractual safeguards, technical controls, or the use of providers operating under recognised international data protection standards.
19. Rights of individuals in New Zealand
Individuals located in New Zealand have the right to:
- request confirmation of whether personal information about them is held
- request access to their personal information
- request correction of information that is inaccurate, incomplete, or misleading
Where a correction request is not accepted, individuals may request that a statement of correction be attached to the relevant information. Requests are processed within reasonable timeframes and may require identity verification for security purposes.
