Your information may be shared with payment processors and financial institutions to facilitate transactions, identity verification services to confirm your details and prevent fraud, and regulatory bodies including the UK Gambling Commission when required by law. Technical service providers who support platform infrastructure, customer support systems, and security monitoring may access your data under contractual confidentiality obligations.

Access to personal data is restricted to authorised personnel who require it for their professional duties, and all staff undergo data protection training.
We retain your personal information for as long as your account remains active and for specified periods thereafter to meet legal and regulatory requirements. Financial records are maintained for seven years following account closure in accordance with anti-money laundering legislation.

You may request account closure at any time, after which we will deactivate your account and retain only the minimum information necessary for regulatory compliance. Casino privacy policy standards require us to maintain certain records even after account termination.
Your Rights and Choices
Under UK data protection law, you possess specific rights concerning your personal information held by Tote Casino. We respect these rights and provide mechanisms for you to exercise them.
You have the right to access your personal data and receive confirmation of what information we hold about you. You may request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data, and in certain circumstances, request erasure of your information where it is no longer necessary for the purposes collected. You can object to or restrict certain types of data processing, including marketing communications.
Data portability rights allow you to receive your personal information in a structured, commonly used format and transmit it to another service provider. You may withdraw consent for data processing based on your consent at any time, though this does not affect the lawfulness of processing conducted before withdrawal.
To exercise these rights, contact our data protection team using the details provided on our website. We will respond to requests within one month, though complex requests may require additional time. You have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office if you believe your data protection rights have been violated.
Tote Casino privacy policy updates will be communicated through our platform, and continued use following modifications constitutes acceptance of revised terms. We recommend reviewing this privacy policy periodically to remain informed about how we protect your information.
