Legal Basis for Data Processing
Our legal grounds for processing personal data are based on fulfilling contractual obligations to users, complying with legal and regulatory requirements, and the legitimate interests of Syndicate Casino in operating and protecting our business. In some cases, we may request your explicit consent to process specific categories of personal data, as required by law.
Disclosure of Personal Information
Personal information may be disclosed to third parties only when necessary for providing services, legal compliance, or as otherwise authorised by the user. Third parties may include:
- Payment service providers and financial institutions involved in processing transactions.
- Regulatory authorities and government agencies in compliance with legal duties and requests.

All third-party disclosures are subject to strict contractual obligations to ensure adequate protection and confidentiality of user data.
International Data Transfers
Due to the global nature of our operations, personal information may be transferred to and processed in jurisdictions outside Australia. In such cases, we ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect data in accordance with Australian privacy standards and applicable international data protection regulations. These safeguards may include standard contractual clauses, binding corporate rules, or other legally recognised mechanisms.
Data Retention Policy
Syndicate Casino retains personal data only as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by applicable laws and regulations. This includes retention for the duration of the user’s account activity and for any period necessary to comply with legal, regulatory, or reporting obligations. After the retention period, personal data is securely deleted or anonymised to prevent identification.
Protection and Security of Personal Data
We implement robust administrative, technical, and physical security measures to safeguard personal information against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. These measures include data encryption, secure storage, access controls, regular security assessments, and staff training in data protection. While we strive to protect user data, no method of electronic transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
User Rights and Access
Australian users have the right to access, correct, or request deletion of their personal data, subject to certain legal and operational limitations. Users may also request to restrict or object to certain types of data processing. To exercise these rights, contact our Data Protection Officer via the contact details provided on our website. We will respond to all legitimate requests within a reasonable timeframe and in accordance with applicable laws.
