Cookies and Similar Technologies
The Grand Ivy Casino uses cookies and related technologies to make the website function correctly and to understand how visitors use it. Cookies are small files stored on your device that can remember settings, support account sessions and help us maintain website security.
We may use strictly necessary technologies for login functions, fraud prevention, session management and core website operations. With your permission where required, we may also use analytics or preference technologies to assess performance, remember choices and improve the user experience.
Your browser or device may allow you to block, delete or restrict cookies. Disabling essential cookies may prevent parts of the website from working properly. Additional information about the types of cookies used and available controls may be provided in our cookie settings or a separate cookie notice.
Data Sharing
We do not treat personal information as a public resource. We share it only where there is a reasonable operational, security, contractual or legal purpose for doing so. Recipients may include:
- Payment processors and financial service providers that assist with deposits, withdrawals and transaction verification.
- Identity, age and fraud prevention providers that help us assess account activity and protect the platform.
- Technology, hosting, cybersecurity, customer support and communications providers that process information on our behalf.
- Professional advisers, insurers, auditors or other service providers where their involvement is necessary.
- Competent authorities, courts or enforcement bodies when disclosure is required or appropriate.
- Potential purchasers or advisers involved in a restructuring, merger, acquisition or transfer of relevant business assets.
Service providers are expected to use information only for authorised purposes and to apply appropriate safeguards. We do not sell personal information for unrelated third-party advertising.
Data Security
We use administrative, technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal information from accidental loss, unauthorised access, misuse, alteration or disclosure. These measures may include access controls, authentication procedures, monitoring, secure communications and staff confidentiality requirements.
No online service can guarantee that information will be completely secure. You are responsible for keeping your account credentials confidential, using a secure device and notifying us promptly if you suspect that your account has been accessed without permission. We may restrict or suspend access where necessary to protect the account, our systems or other users.
Data Retention
We retain personal information for as long as it is reasonably needed for the purposes described in this policy. The retention period depends on the type of information, the nature of our relationship with you, account activity, security considerations and any applicable record-keeping requirements.
When information is no longer required, we may securely delete it, anonymise it or place it beyond active use. Some information may remain in limited backups or records for a further period where necessary for system recovery, dispute management, fraud prevention or the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
Your Rights
Depending on your circumstances and applicable data protection rules, you may have rights concerning the personal information we hold about you. These may include the right to:
- Request access to personal information and receive an explanation of how it is used.
- Ask us to correct information that is inaccurate or incomplete.
- Request deletion of information where there is no continuing reason for us to retain it.
- Ask us to restrict certain processing in appropriate circumstances.
- Object to processing based on particular grounds, including some direct marketing activity.
- Request a copy of certain information in a commonly used electronic format.
- Withdraw consent where processing depends on consent.
These rights are not absolute and may be subject to exceptions, verification requirements or the need to protect other people and the integrity of our services. We may ask for information needed to confirm your identity before handling a request. You may also have the right to raise a concern with an appropriate data protection authority if you believe your information has not been handled properly.
Third-Party Services
The website may contain links, integrations or features provided by third parties. These services may include payment options, verification tools, analytics platforms, social features or promotional content. If you choose to use a third-party service, its own privacy information may apply in addition to this policy.
The Grand Ivy Casino is not responsible for the privacy practices, security controls or content of independent third-party websites. We recommend reviewing their information before submitting personal details or enabling an external feature.
International Transfers
Some suppliers or service providers supporting the casino may process information in countries outside the United Kingdom. Where personal information is transferred internationally, we seek to use appropriate safeguards and contractual or other recognised protections where required.
International processing may be necessary for hosting, customer support, payment processing, cybersecurity or other services that help us operate the website. Further information about a particular transfer may be available upon request, subject to security and confidentiality considerations.
Policy Updates
We may revise this Privacy Policy when our services, technology, suppliers or information practices change. We may also update it to reflect developments in applicable requirements or to make the wording clearer.
When changes are made, the revised version will be posted on the relevant website page with an updated effective date where appropriate. Material changes may also be communicated through the website, by email or through an account message. You should review this policy periodically so that you remain informed about how The Grand Ivy Casino handles personal information.
