Privacy Policy

Last updated: 02/24/2026

Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how play-at-rickycasino.com (referred to as we, us, our, or the Website) collects, uses, stores, and protects your personal information when you visit or interact with our content and services, including from Australia.

We are an informational and affiliate website. We do not operate an online casino, do not offer real-money gambling directly, and do not manage player accounts or payment processing. However, we may link to third-party gambling operators and marketing partners. Those third parties have their own privacy policies and terms, which you should review before providing them with any personal information.

For users located in Australia, we aim to handle personal information in line with the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles. Where applicable, and if you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), certain rights under the GDPR may also apply.

By using play-at-rickycasino.com you confirm that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with the terms of this Policy, you should stop using the Website.

Affiliate and Tracking Partners

For affiliate marketing purposes we may share:

• Aggregated performance reports without directly identifying individual users

This allows us to verify referrals and commissions with our partners while minimising the personal data processed.

We may disclose information if we believe it is reasonably necessary to:

• Comply with a legal obligation, court order or request from a competent authority
• Protect our rights, property or safety, or that of our users or the public

If we undergo a reorganisation, merger, acquisition or similar transaction, personal information may be transferred as part of that process, subject to confidentiality and appropriate safeguards.

Where required, we take steps to ensure that such transfers are subject to appropriate protections in line with applicable laws.

Data Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as necessary for the purposes described in this Policy or as required by law. Retention periods may vary depending on:

• The type of information and the purpose of processing
• Legal and regulatory obligations applicable to us or our providers
• The need to maintain logs or records for security, operational or audit reasons

When information is no longer needed and we are not legally required to keep it, we will either delete it securely or anonymise it so that it no longer identifies you.

Security of Your Data

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to help protect your personal information from unauthorised access, misuse, loss or alteration, including:

• Use of secure hosting environments and protective network configurations
• Encryption in transit via TLS/SSL for supported connections
• Access controls and role-based permissions for staff
• Regular monitoring and maintenance of systems and software
