Data Storage, Security, and Retention Periods

Chumba Casino implements technical and organizational measures designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. Data is stored on secure servers in controlled facilities, with access restricted to authorized personnel on a need-to-know basis.

Security measures include the use of encryption technologies for data transmission, such as Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocols. Firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and regular security assessments are employed to safeguard network integrity. Physical and logical access controls are enforced at data center locations. While no system is infallible, these measures reflect industry standards for the protection of sensitive personal and financial data.

Personal information is retained only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. Retention schedules are determined by the purpose of data collection and legal requirements. For example, account data is retained for the duration of an active account and for a defined period thereafter to comply with financial and gaming regulations. Transactional records are kept as required by law. Upon expiry of the retention period, data is securely deleted or anonymized such that it can no longer be associated with an identifiable individual.

User Rights and Request Procedures

Individuals located in Canada have rights regarding their personal information under privacy legislation. Chumba Casino has established procedures to facilitate the exercise of these rights, subject to legal limitations and exceptions. All requests are subject to a verification process to confirm the identity of the requester.

Users have the right to request access to their personal information and receive details about how it is being processed. The right to rectification allows for the correction of inaccurate or incomplete data. Under certain conditions, users may request the erasure of their personal data or restriction of its processing.

For example, data necessary for compliance with gaming regulations cannot be erased prior to the expiry of the mandated retention period. A fee may be charged for manifestly unfounded or excessive requests.
