Who is responsible

The entity responsible for personal information handled through this site is the publisher of Casino Payment Methods AU, whose particulars and address for correspondence are published on casino-paymentmethods-au.com. Questions about this policy and requests under it go to that address.

What is handled, and why

Only what the running of an editorial site requires: the technical record of a page being requested, the record of your choice about cookies, and — if you write to us — your message and the details you send with it. Those details are used to answer you and for nothing else. No profile is built and nothing collected here is used to target advertising.

The Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) applies, together with the Australian Privacy Principles set out in it. Collection is limited to what is reasonably necessary for the functions of the site under APP 3; what is collected and why is notified under APP 5; and anything not necessary — measurement in particular — rests on your agreement in the cookie banner and may be withdrawn at any time.

Connection logs

Every request produces a technical record: an IP address, a timestamp, the address requested and the browser type. These serve the operation and security of the site and the prevention of abuse. They are deleted or truncated within ninety days, and they are not matched against anything you send us.

Recipients and overseas disclosure

Personal information is not sold and is not traded. It reaches only the service providers needed to host and deliver the site, each bound to use it for that purpose alone, and any authority to which disclosure is required by law. Where information is disclosed to a recipient overseas, APP 8 applies and reasonable steps are taken to ensure the recipient handles it consistently with the Australian Privacy Principles.

Your rights

You may ask what personal information is held about you and receive access to it under APP 12, and you may ask for it to be corrected under APP 13 where it is inaccurate, out of date or incomplete. Consent already given may be withdrawn for the future. Requests are answered free of charge and within a reasonable period, normally thirty days; if a request must be refused, the reason is given.

Data breaches

If a breach involving personal information is likely to result in serious harm, the Notifiable Data Breaches scheme under the Privacy Act applies: affected individuals and the Information Commissioner are notified.

Supervising authority

The supervising authority is the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC). A complaint should ordinarily be put to us first, through casino-paymentmethods-au.com, and taken to the OAIC if our response does not settle it.
