##.
At RioAce Casino, we operate an online gaming platform accessible via rioacecasino-australia.com, providing casino games, betting services, and related features to players in Australia. We comply with the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the 13 Australian Privacy Principles (APPs), which form the cornerstone of Australia's federal privacy framework. This policy also addresses relevant state and territory laws, including those governing online gambling under the Interactive Gambling Act 2001, and AUSTRAC requirements for customer identification.
Our practices ensure transparency, fairness, and accountability in handling personal information. We prioritize data minimization, security, and user rights, allowing anonymous interactions where practicable under APP 2. By registering an account, depositing funds, playing games, or otherwise using our site, you consent to the practices outlined here. This policy was last updated on March 11, 2026, and applies to all users, including visitors and.

Information We
We collect only the personal information necessary for our services, in line with APP 3, which requires collection to be lawful, fair, and limited to primary purposes. During registration, we gather identity details such as your full name, date of birth, residential address in Australia, email address, phone number, and government-issued ID (e.g, driver's license or passport) for verification.
Financial information includes payment method details, bank account numbers, transaction history, and source of funds data to process deposits, withdrawals, and comply with anti-money laundering (AML) rules under AUSTRAC's Applicable Customer Identification Procedures (ACIP), mandatory before account creation. Gaming data encompasses bet history, game preferences, play duration, and self-exclusion status for responsible gambling assessments.
Technical data is automatically collected via cookies, IP addresses, device type, browser version, operating system, and location data (approximated for Australia) to enhance security, prevent fraud, and optimize performance. Sensitive information, like health data for responsible gambling or financial details indicating vulnerability, is collected only with explicit consent or as legally required.
We encourage pseudonymity where possible, such as guest browsing, but full identification is required for wagering under Australian gambling laws. Unsolicited information received (e.g, via email) is reviewed under APP 4 and destroyed if not needed.
How We Collect
Collection occurs directly from you during account setup, verification, deposits, or support interactions, ensuring you are notified of purposes per APP 5. Automated tools like cookies and analytics track usage; we use first-party cookies for essentials (session management) and third-party for analytics (e.g, Google Analytics, with opt-out options).
From third parties, we obtain verification data from services like ID scanning providers or credit reference agencies for AML checks, always with your consent. Public sources may supplement for fraud detection. For minors, we enforce age gates (18+ or 19+ per state), collecting no data from under-age users.
Server logs capture IP addresses and timestamps for security. We never collect biometric data beyond basic ID scans. All methods are non-intrusive, avoiding surveillance beyond standard gaming oversight.
