How Godz Casino Handles Your Data: Privacy Policy
See what data Godz Casino collects from registration to payout, how verification documents are encrypted, and how to make data requests via live chat.
Godz Casino Privacy Policy: What We Collect and Why
We collect only what we need to open, verify and pay out your account. Messages sent through our contact form are deleted after 180 days.
This policy applies to everyone who plays at Godz from Canada. It sets out what data we collect, when we collect it and what we do with it. We kept it in plain language, with one rule per sentence where possible.
Data we collect and when
Most of your data reaches us at two points: sign-up and verification.
| Data type | Examples | When collected | Why we need it | Retention |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Registration data | Name, email, date of birth, address | At sign-up | To open your account and confirm your age | While your account is active, then as long as the law requires |
| KYC documents | ID, proof of address, proof of payment method | Before your first deposit | To confirm who you are and who owns the payment method | While your account is active, then as long as the law requires |
| Payment data | Deposits, withdrawals, transaction IDs | With each transaction | To process payments and prevent fraud | For the period set by financial and anti-money-laundering rules |
| Technical data | IP address, device, browser | On each visit and login | To protect your login and keep the site working | While your account is active, then as long as the law requires |
| Gameplay and account activity | Bets, sessions, bonus use, limits you set | While you play | To run games, apply bonus terms and support safer play | While your account is active, then as long as the law requires |
| Support chat records | Chat history with our team | When you contact live chat | To answer you and follow up on your case | While your account is active, then as long as the law requires |
| Contact form messages | Name, email, subject, message text | When you send the form | Only to review and reply to your message | Up to 180 days |
| Cookies | Session and preference cookies | On each visit | To keep you logged in and remember settings | Until they expire or you clear them |
How we use your data, including KYC checks
We ask for ID right after Godz casino registration, before your first deposit. Skipping this and playing first is tempting. A late check, though, would hold a win until your documents clear.
Once your documents are approved, we do not request them again at payout. The only exception is a legal requirement, such as an anti-money-laundering review.
- Open and protect your account
- Confirm you meet the legal age to play
- Process deposits and withdrawals
- Detect fraud and misuse of bonuses
- Answer your support requests
- Meet our legal and regulatory duties
Storage, sharing and retention
Your data travels over encrypted connections. Access is limited to staff who need it for a specific task.
We share data only with payment providers, game providers, verification partners, and with regulators and authorities when the law requires it. We do not sell your data.
If you request account deletion while a withdrawal is pending, we complete the payout first. Records the law obliges us to keep stay stored, and the rest is removed.
Your rights as a Canadian player
Your rights come from PIPEDA and applicable provincial law, including Quebec Law 25.
- Access the data we hold about you
- Correct data that is wrong or outdated
- Ask for deletion where the law allows it
- Withdraw consent, for example for marketing emails
- Complain to the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada or your provincial regulator
If you withdraw consent for marketing emails, your account keeps working as before.
Cookies and how to contact us
Cookies keep you logged in and remember your settings. You can block or delete them in your browser. Some features, such as staying logged in, may stop working without them.
To reach us, open live chat in your account or write to the email listed on our contacts page.
Our site also has a contact form. You need to tick the consent box before a message can be sent. The name, email, subject and text you enter are passed to the operator of our network of sites. This operator is a separate party acting as a data processor. The site itself does not keep your message after delivery.
- Your message is used only to review it and reply to you.
- Your IP address is not stored. Only an irreversible hash of it is used to block abuse.
- Attachments are not accepted through the form.
- Links and contact details in your message are hidden automatically for security.
- Messages are kept for up to 180 days. After that, name, email and text are deleted, and only anonymised statistics remain: subject, language and date.
To find out what data we hold about you, or to ask for its deletion, use the same form with the subject “Privacy / data request”.
Write your privacy request from the email linked to your account. It lets us match the request to you without extra questions.
When we change this policy, we update the date shown under the page title.
Check it yourself: before your first deposit, ask live chat which documents your verification needs, and save the reply.
- ID is requested before your first deposit, so a win is not held for a late check.
- Approved documents are not requested again at payout unless the law requires it.
- We share data only with payment, game and verification partners and authorities, and we never sell it.
- Contact form messages are deleted after 180 days, with only subject, language and date kept as anonymised statistics.
Godz Keeps Your Documents Private
ID files reach us over an encrypted connection, and only our verification and support team opens them. Privacy questions go to live chat or the contact form.
How your documents are handled
At Godz online casino, you verify once, before your first deposit. Approved files stay on record, so a win does not trigger a new upload.
- Uploads travel over an encrypted connection.
- Only the verification and support team can open your files.
- We check documents once, before the first deposit.
