When you register an account with Malina Casino, we collect various types of personal information necessary to provide you with a secure and enjoyable gaming experience. This includes your full name, date of birth, email address, residential address, telephone number, and payment details. We also gather technical data such as your IP address, browser type, device information, and gameplay history to improve our services and ensure safe gaming practices. The information collected serves multiple purposes including account verification, age confirmation to comply with legal requirements, processing deposits and withdrawals, preventing fraud and maintaining platform security, and personalizing your gaming experience. We may also collect data about your interaction with our slot games, including session duration, game preferences, and betting patterns, which helps us enhance our offerings and identify responsible gaming concerns. All information is collected through secure channels and stored in accordance with industry standards. We only request information that is essential for operating our services and complying with regulatory obligations in Canada. Your data allows us to communicate important updates about your account, inform you about new slot games and promotions, and provide customer support when needed.
Data Protection and Security Measures
Malina Casino employs advanced security technologies to protect your personal and financial information from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. We implement industry-standard encryption protocols, including SSL technology, to secure all data transmitted between your device and our servers. Our systems undergo regular security audits and penetration testing to identify and address potential vulnerabilities. Access to your personal information is restricted to authorized personnel who require it to perform their job functions, and all staff members are bound by strict confidentiality agreements. We maintain physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards that comply with Canadian privacy legislation and international data protection standards. Payment information is processed through certified payment gateways that adhere to PCI DSS compliance standards, ensuring your financial data remains protected throughout all transactions. We regularly update our security measures to address emerging threats and maintain the highest level of protection for our users. In the event of a data breach that may compromise your personal information, we will notify affected users and relevant authorities in accordance with applicable privacy laws. Our commitment to safe gaming extends beyond gameplay to encompass comprehensive data protection at every level of our operation.
Information Sharing and Third-Party Disclosure
Malina Casino does not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties for marketing purposes. However, we may share your data with specific service providers and partners who assist us in operating our platform and delivering our services. These third parties include payment processors who handle deposit and withdrawal transactions, identity verification services that confirm your age and identity to prevent underage gambling, customer support platforms that help us respond to your inquiries, game providers who supply our slot games and require certain data for gameplay functionality, and regulatory bodies when required by law or to comply with licensing obligations. All third-party service providers are carefully selected and contractually obligated to maintain the confidentiality and security of your information. They are permitted to use your data solely for the purposes of providing services to Malina Casino and are prohibited from using it for their own purposes. We may also disclose your information if required by law, court order, or governmental regulation, or when we believe disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, prevent fraud, or ensure safe gaming practices. In cases where we need to transfer data outside Canada, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your privacy in accordance with Canadian privacy standards.
User Rights and Data Management
As a user of Malina Casino, you have specific rights regarding your personal information under Canadian privacy legislation. You have the right to access the personal data we hold about you and request a copy of this information in a commonly used electronic format. You may request corrections to any inaccurate or incomplete personal information in your account at any time through your account settings or by contacting our support team. You have the right to request deletion of your personal data, subject to certain legal and regulatory obligations that may require us to retain specific information for defined periods. You can object to or restrict certain types of data processing, including marketing communications, by adjusting your preferences in your account settings. You have the right to withdraw consent for data processing activities that require your consent, though this may affect your ability to use certain features of our platform. To exercise any of these rights, you can contact our privacy team through the designated channels provided on our website. We will respond to your requests within the timeframes required by applicable privacy laws. Please note that certain information must be retained for legal, accounting, or regulatory purposes even after you close your account.

Data Retention and Policy Updates
Malina Casino retains your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this privacy policy and to comply with legal and regulatory requirements. Active account data is maintained for the duration of your relationship with us and for a reasonable period thereafter to address any issues that may arise. Financial transaction records are retained in accordance with anti-money laundering regulations and tax laws, which typically require retention periods of seven years or more. Gameplay history and responsible gaming data may be retained longer to support safe gaming initiatives and regulatory compliance. Once the retention period expires and there is no legal requirement to maintain the data, we securely delete or anonymize your information to prevent unauthorized access or use. We regularly review our data retention practices to ensure compliance with current regulations and industry best practices.

|---|---|---|
| Account Information | Duration of active account plus 7 years | Regulatory compliance and legal requirements |
| Financial Transactions | 7 years from transaction date | Anti-money laundering and tax regulations |
| Gameplay History | Duration of active account plus 5 years | Safe gaming monitoring and dispute resolution |
| Marketing Communications | Until consent withdrawn or 2 years of inactivity | Communication preferences and opt-out compliance |
| Support Correspondence | 3 years from last contact | Customer service quality and dispute resolution |
We reserve the right to update this privacy policy periodically to reflect changes in our practices, technology, legal requirements, or operational needs. When significant changes are made, we will notify active users through email or prominent notices on our website. The updated policy will include the effective date, and your continued use of Malina Casino after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the revised terms. We encourage you to review this privacy policy regularly to stay informed about how we protect your information and maintain safe gaming standards.
