How We Use Information
A Big Candy Casino uses information to operate the website, provide requested services, and maintain a safe environment for players. Our uses typically include:
- Creating and administering accounts, including authentication, gameplay access, and customer support.
- Processing transactions, reconciling payments, and handling withdrawals and chargebacks where applicable.

- Complying with internal policies and applicable requirements in a general sense, such as recordkeeping and responding to valid requests.
- Improving and troubleshooting the website, including bug fixing, performance monitoring, and product development.
- Managing marketing preferences and delivering service messages (for example, important account or security notifications).
- Supporting responsible play measures, such as enabling account limits and operational checks, where these features are offered.
Where required, we rely on appropriate grounds to process information, which may include performance of a service requested by you, legitimate operational needs such as security and service improvement, and consent for certain cookie or marketing activities where such choices are presented.
Cookies and Similar Technologies
A Big Candy Casino uses cookies and similar technologies to make the website work efficiently, remember your preferences, and help us understand how the site is used. Cookies are small text files stored on your device that can be read by the website that placed them.
We may use session cookies (which expire when you close your browser) and persistent cookies (which remain for a defined period). Similar technologies may include local storage, pixel tags, and SDKs used for analytics and service performance.
Your choices
You can usually manage cookie settings through your browser or device controls. If you disable certain cookies, parts of the website may not function as intended, and you may need to re-enter preferences more often.
Data Sharing
A Big Candy Casino does not sell your personal information as a standalone product. We may share information in limited circumstances to operate the service, protect players, and meet general obligations. Data sharing may include:
- Service providers that host systems, deliver analytics, support communications, provide payment-related services, or assist with fraud prevention, acting under contractual controls appropriate to their role.
- Corporate transactions, such as a merger, acquisition, restructuring, or sale of assets, where information may be transferred subject to appropriate confidentiality measures.
- Legal or safety-related disclosures, where we reasonably believe disclosure is necessary to respond to lawful requests, protect rights and property, investigate suspected wrongdoing, or safeguard users.
When we engage service providers, we aim to share only the information required for the service they perform and to require reasonable safeguards consistent with this policy.
Data Security
We use a combination of administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect information against unauthorised access, alteration, loss, or misuse. These measures may include access controls, encryption in transit where appropriate, logging and monitoring, and security testing.
No method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure. While A Big Candy Casino works to protect your information, you should also take steps to safeguard your account credentials and use a secure device and network environment.
Data Retention
We retain information for as long as needed to provide the services you request, maintain business records, resolve disputes, enforce our agreements, and meet operational and legal needs in general terms. Retention periods can vary depending on:
- The type of information and why it was collected.
- Whether your account remains active or has been closed.
- Whether retention is needed for security, fraud prevention, dispute resolution, or recordkeeping.
When information is no longer required, we take reasonable steps to delete, anonymise, or securely store it in a way that limits further use.
Your Rights
Depending on your circumstances and applicable rules, you may have rights regarding your personal information. A Big Candy Casino aims to support reasonable requests, subject to verification of identity and any limitations that may apply.
- Access: request a copy of certain personal information we hold about you.
- Correction: request correction of inaccurate or outdated information.
- Deletion: request deletion of certain information, where we are not required to keep it for legitimate operational reasons.
- Objection or restriction: request that we limit certain processing in appropriate situations.
- Marketing preferences: opt out of certain marketing communications where an unsubscribe or preference option is provided.
For security, we may need to verify your identity before responding. We may also be unable to fulfil a request where doing so would compromise security, conflict with recordkeeping needs, or affect the rights of others.
Third-Party Services
The A Big Candy Casino website may include third-party tools and integrations, such as payment services, analytics providers, customer support platforms, and content delivery networks. These third parties may process information on our behalf or as independent controllers depending on their role.
Where we link to third-party websites or services, their privacy practices apply to your use of those services. We encourage you to review their privacy policies before providing information or enabling permissions.
International Transfers (General Only)
A Big Candy Casino may use service providers and infrastructure located in different countries. As a result, information may be transferred, stored, or processed outside Australia. When international transfers occur, we take reasonable steps to ensure information is handled with appropriate protections consistent with this policy and the nature of the data involved.
International transfer arrangements can vary depending on the provider, the service delivered, and technical architecture. Where feasible, we seek to limit access to authorised personnel and apply safeguards such as encryption and contractual confidentiality commitments.
Policy Updates
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our services, technology, or operational practices. If we make material changes, we will take reasonable steps to provide notice through the website or by other appropriate means.
The updated version will apply from the date it is posted. Your continued use of A Big Candy Casino after an update indicates that you have read the revised policy.
