Who We Are

Data Controller: Golden Tiger Casino NZ, operating through golden-tiger-casino-nz.com. Licensed by the Kahnawake Gaming Commission (Licence No. as issued). For all data-related enquiries, contact our Privacy Officer at [email protected].

This Privacy Policy applies to all personal information we collect when you visit golden-tiger-casino-nz.com, create an account, make deposits or withdrawals, claim bonuses, contact our support team, or interact with our services in any way.

We operate under the New Zealand Privacy Act 2020, which governs how businesses collect, use, store and disclose personal information about individuals. Our practices are also aligned with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the Anti-Money Laundering and Countering Financing of Terrorism Act 2009 (AML/CFT Act), which requires us to verify player identity.

By using our services, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with how we handle your data, please do not use our services and contact us to close your account.

Who We Share Your Data With

We do not sell your personal data. We do not share it with advertisers. We share only what is strictly necessary with the following categories of recipient:

🏦
Payment Processors
Visa, Mastercard, Neteller, Skrill and other payment partners receive only the data necessary to process transactions. Card numbers are handled entirely by the payment processor — we never see or store full card details.

🔍
KYC & Identity Verification Providers
We use third-party identity verification services to confirm your identity as required under AML/CFT law. These providers receive your ID documents and personal details solely for verification purposes and are bound by strict data protection agreements.

🎮
Games Global (Microgaming)
Our game software provider may receive anonymised gameplay data for game performance, fairness auditing and progressive jackpot processing. No personally identifiable information is shared with Games Global beyond what is necessary for jackpot payouts.

🏛️
Regulatory & Law Enforcement Authorities
We are legally required to disclose personal information to regulators, law enforcement, and courts when required by law — including under the AML/CFT Act 2009, the Privacy Act 2020, or a valid court order. We disclose only what is legally required and will notify you where permitted by law.

📊
Analytics Providers
We use analytics tools (such as Google Analytics) to understand how players use our site. This data is pseudonymised and aggregated — analytics providers do not receive your name, email or financial information. You may opt out via your browser cookie settings.

What we never do: sell your data, share it with unrelated advertisers, provide it to data brokers, or disclose it to any party not listed here without your explicit consent.
