Privacy Policy
This privacy policy outlines how 7GOLD Casino collects, uses, stores, and protects your personal information when you access and use our online gaming platform. We are committed to safeguarding your privacy and ensuring that your personal data is handled in accordance with applicable data protection legislation in the United Kingdom, including the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018. By using 7GOLD Casino, you acknowledge that you have read and understood the terms set out in this privacy policy.
Information We Collect
When you register and use 7GOLD Casino, we collect various types of information necessary to provide our services, maintain security, and comply with legal obligations. The personal data we gather includes information you provide directly during account creation, such as your full name, date of birth, residential address, email address, and telephone number. We also collect payment information, including card details and transaction history, though sensitive payment data is processed through secure third-party payment processors.
During your use of our platform, we automatically collect technical information through cookies and similar technologies. This includes your IP address, browser type, device information, operating system, gameplay patterns, betting history, and session duration. We may also collect verification documents such as proof of identity, proof of address, and source of funds documentation to fulfil our regulatory obligations under UK gambling laws and anti-money laundering requirements.
Communication records are maintained when you contact our customer support team through email, live chat, or telephone. We retain these interactions to improve service quality and resolve any disputes. Additionally, we collect information about your marketing preferences and responses to promotional communications.
How We Use Your Information
The personal data collected by 7GOLD Casino serves multiple essential purposes related to platform operation and legal compliance. We process your information primarily to create and manage your gaming account, verify your identity and age to prevent underage gambling, and process deposits and withdrawals securely. Your data enables us to provide customer support, respond to enquiries, and resolve technical issues you may encounter.
We utilise your information to detect and prevent fraudulent activities, money laundering, and other illegal activities that could compromise platform integrity. Casino privacy policy requirements mandate that we monitor gaming behaviour to identify problem gambling patterns and implement responsible gambling measures where necessary. Your gameplay data helps us personalise your experience and recommend games that may interest you based on your preferences.
Marketing communications are sent only with your explicit consent, and you retain the right to opt out at any time. We analyse aggregated data to improve our services, develop new features, and enhance overall platform performance. Compliance with licensing requirements from the UK Gambling Commission necessitates maintaining comprehensive records of transactions and gaming activity. We may also use your information to enforce our terms and conditions and protect the rights and safety of other users.
Data Sharing and Third-Party Disclosure
7GOLD Casino privacy policy includes strict controls over when and how your personal information may be shared with external parties. We do not sell your personal data to third parties for marketing purposes. However, certain disclosures are necessary to operate our platform and meet legal obligations.
We share information with trusted service providers who assist in delivering our services, including payment processors, identity verification services, game developers, hosting providers, and customer support platforms. These third parties are contractually obligated to protect your data and use it only for specified purposes. Regulatory authorities, including the UK Gambling Commission and HM Revenue & Customs, may require access to your information as part of their oversight functions.
Law enforcement agencies may request disclosure of your data where legally required to investigate suspected criminal activity or comply with court orders. In the event of a business transfer, merger, or acquisition, your personal information may be transferred to the new entity, though you would be notified of any such change. We may share aggregated, anonymised data that cannot identify you personally with business partners for analytical purposes.

Data Security and Retention
Protecting your personal information is a fundamental priority for 7GOLD Casino.

Our platform utilises industry-standard SSL encryption to secure data transmission between your device and our servers. All sensitive information is encrypted at rest using advanced encryption protocols.
Access to personal data is restricted to authorised personnel who require it to perform their duties, and all staff members receive regular training on data protection principles and casino privacy policy requirements. We maintain secure servers in protected facilities with multiple layers of physical and digital security. Regular security audits and penetration testing are conducted to identify and address potential vulnerabilities.
We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes outlined in this privacy policy and comply with legal obligations. Active account data is maintained throughout your relationship with 7GOLD Casino. Following account closure, we retain certain records for six years to meet UK Gambling Commission requirements and potential legal claims.

After the retention period expires, personal data is securely deleted or anonymised beyond recognition. You may request earlier deletion of certain data types where no legal obligation requires continued retention.
Your Privacy Rights
Under UK data protection law, you possess several rights regarding your personal information held by 7GOLD Casino. You have the right to access the personal data we process about you and receive a copy in a structured, commonly used format. This enables you to understand what information we hold and verify that we are processing it lawfully.
You may request correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal data, ensuring your account information remains current and accurate. In certain circumstances, you have the right to request deletion of your personal data, though this may be limited by legal retention requirements imposed by gambling regulations. You can object to processing of your personal data for direct marketing purposes at any time, and we will cease such processing immediately.
The right to restrict processing allows you to limit how we use your data in specific situations, such as when you contest its accuracy or object to processing. Where processing is based on consent or contract and carried out by automated means, you have the right to receive your personal data in a portable format or request direct transfer to another organisation where technically feasible.
To exercise any of these rights, contact our Data Protection Officer using the details provided on our website. We will respond to your request within one month, though complex requests may require an additional two months with notification. You retain the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office if you believe your data protection rights have been violated.
We may require verification of your identity before processing requests to prevent unauthorised disclosure of personal information. Certain requests may be refused where legal obligations prevent compliance, but we will explain the reasons for any such refusal. No fees are charged for exercising your rights unless requests are manifestly unfounded or excessive.
