The legal bases for our processing activities vary depending on the specific use of information and the nature of our relationship with users.
Primary legal bases include explicit consent provided during account registration, contractual necessity for service provision, legal obligations under gaming and financial regulations, and legitimate interests in fraud prevention and security. We regularly review and assess the legal basis for our processing activities to ensure ongoing compliance with applicable privacy legislation.
Data Sharing and Disclosure
We may share personal information with third parties in specific circumstances and in accordance with Canadian privacy requirements. All data sharing arrangements are governed by appropriate agreements and safeguards to protect user privacy.
