It is written to help you understand what information we handle and the choices you may have.
By using Ricky Casino, you acknowledge that some information will be processed to operate the site securely, provide customer support, prevent fraud, and meet applicable obligations. If you do not agree with this Privacy Policy, you should stop using the website and services.

- Identity and verification information, which may include government-issued identification details and proof of address, where needed to verify your account or protect the platform.
- Payment and transaction details, such as deposit and withdrawal records, payment method identifiers, and related billing information (note that full payment card details are typically handled by payment providers rather than stored directly by us).

- Game and account activity data, including login history, session timestamps, gameplay events, and responsible gaming settings you choose.
Information from third parties
Where permitted, we may receive information from third parties such as payment processors, fraud-prevention providers, analytics services, and verification services. This can include risk indicators, verification results, and transaction status updates. We aim to collect only what is necessary for the specific purpose.
How We Use Information
Ricky Casino uses personal information to operate and improve our services, protect players, and maintain the integrity of the platform. The main purposes include:
- Creating and managing your account, including login, authentication, and account preferences.
- Processing deposits and withdrawals, confirming transactions, and handling chargebacks or payment disputes where relevant.
- Providing customer support, responding to requests, and resolving complaints or technical issues.
- Ensuring site security, preventing fraud, detecting suspicious activity, and protecting the platform and its users.
- Performing internal reporting and analytics to understand performance, improve user experience, and develop features.
- Sending service messages, such as policy updates, security alerts, or notifications about important account actions.
- Where you choose to receive them, delivering marketing communications and promotional offers, and managing opt-out preferences.
We aim to use personal information in a proportionate manner. If we intend to use information for a new purpose that is not compatible with the original reason it was collected, we will take appropriate steps before doing so.
Cookies and Similar Technologies
Ricky Casino uses cookies and similar technologies (such as pixels and local storage) to make the website function, remember your preferences, improve performance, and understand how the site is used. Cookies are small text files placed on your device that help websites recognize your browser.
Some cookies are essential for core functionality, such as maintaining sessions or enabling security features. Others may be used for analytics and to tailor content. Your browser settings typically allow you to control cookies, including deleting existing cookies or blocking future cookies. If you block certain cookies, parts of the website may not work as intended.
Data Sharing
We may share personal information when necessary to provide the services, maintain security, comply with legitimate requests, or operate our business. Ricky Casino does not sell personal information in the ordinary sense; however, information may be disclosed to the categories of recipients below:
- Service providers who support our operations, such as hosting, customer support tools, analytics, security monitoring, and IT services.
- Payment processors and financial service providers to process deposits, withdrawals, and transaction-related checks.
- Identity verification and fraud-prevention providers to help confirm account details and reduce risk.
- Professional advisers such as auditors, legal advisers, or consultants where needed for compliance, risk management, or dispute handling.
- Authorities or other parties when we believe disclosure is necessary to comply with applicable law, respond to lawful requests, or protect the rights and safety of players and the platform.
- Corporate transaction counterparties (for example, during a merger, acquisition, or asset transfer), subject to appropriate confidentiality and data protection controls.
When sharing information with service providers, we seek to limit access to what is reasonably required for the agreed services and to require appropriate safeguards.
Data Security
Ricky Casino uses a combination of administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure. These measures may include access controls, encryption in transit where appropriate, logging and monitoring, and staff confidentiality obligations.
No online service can guarantee absolute security. You also play an important role in protecting your information by choosing a strong password, keeping it confidential, and using secure devices and networks when accessing your account.
Data Retention
We retain personal information for as long as necessary to provide our services, operate the platform, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, and meet legitimate operational needs. Retention periods can vary depending on the type of data and the purpose for which it was collected.
When information is no longer required, we take steps to delete it, anonymize it, or securely archive it in line with reasonable practices. Some data may be retained longer where required for security, fraud prevention, or other lawful and proportionate purposes.
Your Rights
Depending on your location and the nature of our relationship with you, you may have certain rights relating to your personal information. Ricky Casino aims to respect applicable privacy principles and provide meaningful controls. Your rights may include:
- Access: requesting a copy of personal information we hold about you.
- Correction: asking us to update or correct inaccurate or incomplete information.
- Deletion: requesting deletion of certain personal information, where appropriate.
- Objection or restriction: asking us to stop or limit certain processing in specific circumstances.
- Portability: requesting a copy of certain information in a structured, commonly used format, where applicable.
- Marketing choices: opting out of promotional communications, while still receiving important service messages.
Some requests may be limited because of security obligations, legal requirements, or the need to protect other users and the integrity of Ricky Casino. If we cannot meet a request fully, we will explain the reason in a clear way where appropriate.
Third-Party Services
The Ricky Casino website may include services operated by third parties, such as payment providers, identity verification tools, analytics platforms, game providers, and embedded content. These third parties may process information under their own privacy practices. Where third-party services are integrated into the site, they may collect technical data such as device identifiers, IP address, and usage information to provide their functionality.
We encourage you to review the privacy notices of relevant third parties when interacting with their services. Ricky Casino is not responsible for the privacy practices of external websites or services that are not operated by us.
International Transfers (General Only)
Ricky Casino may process or store information in countries other than Australia, including locations where our service providers or technology infrastructure operate. International transfers can be necessary to provide stable hosting, security monitoring, customer support tools, and payment processing.
When information is transferred internationally, we take reasonable steps to ensure it is handled in a manner consistent with this Privacy Policy and with appropriate safeguards. The specific safeguards can vary depending on the transfer context and the service provider arrangements.
Policy Updates
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes to our services, technology, or operational practices. When changes are made, we will post the updated version on the Ricky Casino website and adjust the effective content accordingly.
If an update materially changes how we use or share personal information, we will take reasonable steps to provide additional notice where appropriate. Your continued use of the services after an update means you accept the revised Privacy Policy.
