Richard Casino Privacy Policy
- …
This Richard Casino privacy policy explains how we collect, use, store and protect the personal data of players who register and play on richard1.net. Your privacy matters to us, and this document sets out our commitments in plain English so that Australian players always know exactly what happens to their personal information. Our approach to data protection is aligned with the Australian Privacy Act 1988, the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) and, where applicable, the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). By creating an account with Richard Casino, you confirm that you have read and accepted this privacy policy together with our cookie policy.
Who Controls Your Data at Richard Casino
Richard Casino is operated by a company registered in Curaçao and licensed by the Government of Curaçao. For the purposes of applicable privacy legislation, the operator acts as the data controller, which means it decides why and how your user data is processed. Day-to-day data processing is carried out by trained staff who are bound by strict confidentiality obligations, and our Data Protection Officer supervises compliance across the whole platform. If you have any question about Richard Casino data protection practices, you can reach the Data Protection Officer directly at [email protected] or contact our support team at [email protected].
Personal Data Collected by Richard Casino
To run a licensed online casino responsibly, Richard Casino must carry out lawful data collection. We only gather the personal data that is genuinely needed to provide our services, meet legal obligations and keep your account safe. The main categories are listed below.
- Identification data: full name, date of birth, gender, nationality, and copies of identity documents supplied during KYC verification.
- Contact data: residential address, e-mail address and phone number.
- Financial data: deposit and withdrawal history, payment method details (PayID, Visa, Mastercard, Skrill, Neteller, Paysafecard, Neosurf, Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, bank transfer), and transaction records.
- Gaming activity data: bets placed, games launched, bonus usage, wagering progress, VIP level and session history across our 4,000+ titles.
- Technical data: IP address, device type, operating system, browser version, and log files generated when you use the site or the mobile app.
- Communication data: live chat transcripts, e-mails and any correspondence with our support team.
- Sensitive data: in limited cases, responsible gambling information such as self-exclusion requests or limit settings.
- Third-party data: information received from payment providers, identity verification services and fraud prevention agencies.
How Richard Casino Collects Your Information
Most personal information comes directly from you: when you register, verify your identity, make a deposit, claim the welcome bonus or contact support. Additional user data is collected automatically through cookies and similar technologies while you browse the site, and some information reaches us from trusted third parties such as payment processors and KYC verification partners. Richard Casino never buys marketing lists and never collects data about you covertly.
Why We Process Your Personal Data
Every act of data processing at Richard Casino serves a defined purpose and rests on a valid legal basis. The table below summarises the main purposes and the corresponding grounds.
| Purpose of processing | Examples | Legal basis |
|---|---|---|
| Account management | Registration, login, balance handling, VIP status | Performance of a contract |
| Service provision | Game access, bonuses, deposits and withdrawals | Performance of a contract |
| Legal obligations | KYC and AML checks, age verification, record keeping | Compliance with law |
| Security | Fraud detection, account protection, incident response | Legitimate interest |
| Responsible gambling | Deposit, bet, loss and session limits; self-exclusion | Legal obligation / legitimate interest |
| Communication | Support replies, service notices, promotional offers | Contract / consent |
| Improvement | Analytics, testing new features, service optimisation | Legitimate interest / consent |
Where processing relies on your consent — for instance, marketing e-mails — you may withdraw that consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out beforehand.
Richard Casino Cookie Policy
The Richard Casino cookie policy forms part of this document. Cookies are small text files stored on your device that help the website remember your preferences, keep you logged in and measure how the platform is used. We group them into four categories:
- Essential cookies: required for core functions such as secure login, session handling and payment processing. The site cannot operate without them.
- Analytical cookies: help us understand how visitors interact with pages and games so we can improve performance.
- Functional cookies: remember your language, display settings and other preferences.
- Marketing cookies: used, only with your consent, to show relevant offers and measure the effectiveness of promotions.
You can manage or delete cookies through your browser settings at any time. Blocking essential cookies may prevent parts of Richard Casino from working correctly, but analytical and marketing cookies can be refused without any impact on gameplay.
Sharing Data with Third Parties
Richard Casino never sells your personal data. We disclose information only where it is necessary and only to recipients who guarantee an adequate level of data protection:
- Payment providers that process deposits and withdrawals, including card networks, e-wallets and cryptocurrency processors;
- Regulatory bodies and authorities, including the Curaçao licensing authority, law enforcement and anti-money-laundering agencies, where the law requires disclosure;
- Business partners such as game providers, identity verification services, hosting companies and analytics platforms acting under strict contractual confidentiality terms.
International Data Transfers
Because our operator and some service partners are located outside Australia, your user data may be transferred internationally, for example to Curaçao or to jurisdictions within the European Economic Area. Whenever data leaves Australia, Richard Casino applies appropriate safeguards — including contractual data protection clauses and vendor due diligence — so that your privacy rights travel with your data.
Data Security at Richard Casino
Data security is a cornerstone of the platform. Richard Casino uses layered technical and organisational measures to protect your account and your personal information against unauthorised access, alteration, loss or disclosure:
- 256-bit SSL/TLS encryption on every connection between your device and our servers;
- Encrypted data storage for sensitive records such as identity documents and payment details;
- Firewalls and intrusion detection systems monitoring the network around the clock;
- Strict access controls so that only authorised staff can view user data, on a need-to-know basis;
- Mandatory KYC before the first withdrawal, which prevents account takeover and payment fraud;
- Regular security audits, and RNG certification by independent laboratories for game fairness.
No online system can be guaranteed 100% secure, so we encourage you to support our information security efforts by choosing a strong unique password, never sharing your login details and contacting support immediately if you notice suspicious account activity.
Data Storage and Retention Periods
Richard Casino keeps personal data only for as long as needed for the purposes described above or as required by law. Typical retention periods are shown below:
| Data category | Retention period |
|---|---|
| Account and identification data | Duration of the account plus 5 years (AML requirement) |
| Financial and transaction records | 5 years after the transaction |
| Gaming activity logs | 5 years after account closure |
| Support correspondence | Up to 3 years |
| Technical logs and cookies data | From a single session up to 24 months |
| Marketing preferences | Until consent is withdrawn |
Once the applicable period expires, records are securely deleted or irreversibly anonymised in accordance with our internal data storage and destruction procedures.
Your Privacy Rights
Under the Australian Privacy Principles and, where relevant, the GDPR, you enjoy a broad set of privacy rights over the personal information Richard Casino holds about you:
- Access: request a copy of the data we hold about you;
- Correction: ask us to update inaccurate or incomplete details;
- Deletion: request erasure of data we are not legally required to keep;

To exercise any of these rights, e-mail [email protected] from your registered address. We respond to verified requests free of charge, normally within 30 days. If you believe Richard Casino has mishandled your data, you may lodge a complaint with the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC), the supervisory authority for privacy matters in Australia, via oaic.gov.au.
Responsible Gambling and Confidentiality
Richard Casino processes limited responsible gambling data — deposit, bet, loss and session limits, cooling-off periods (24 hours to 30 days) and self-exclusion requests (6 months to permanent) — solely to protect players. This information is handled with heightened confidentiality and is never used for marketing purposes.
Updates to This Privacy Policy
We may revise this privacy policy from time to time to reflect legal changes, new features or improved information security practices. Significant updates will be announced on the site or by e-mail, and the latest version will always be available on this page. Continued use of Richard Casino after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
