All internal personnel with access to personal data are bound by confidentiality obligations and are trained in data protection responsibilities. Access controls and authentication measures are in place to prevent unauthorised internal access.
Releasing Data to Third Parties

Data Retention
GW Casino retains your personal data only for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes outlined in this policy. In particular, Australian AML/CTF regulations require that we retain certain account and transaction-related records for a mandatory minimum period of seven years from the date the relevant transaction or activity occurred.
For general account data, we retain your information for the duration of your account’s existence and for a period of five years following account closure, unless a longer retention period is required by law.
Following the expiration of the applicable retention period, your personal data will be securely deleted or anonymised in a manner that prevents re-identification. If you wish to exercise your right to erasure, you may submit a request to [email protected]. Please note that erasure requests may be subject to overriding legal retention obligations, and GW Casino will inform you of any such limitations when responding to your request.
