RioAce processes your personal data based on several legal grounds, depending on the specific purpose for which the data is collected:

• Contractual Necessity: Processing is necessary for the performance of a contract with you, such as providing gaming services and managing your account.
• Legal Obligation: Processing is necessary to comply with a legal or regulatory obligation, such as anti-money laundering (AML) laws, age verification, and responsible gambling requirements imposed by our licensing authority.
• Legitimate Interests: Processing is necessary for our legitimate interests, or those of a third party, provided your fundamental rights and freedoms do not override those interests. This includes purposes like fraud prevention, network security, improving our services, and marketing activities (where not requiring consent).
• Consent: In specific situations, we may rely on your explicit consent to process your personal data, particularly for certain marketing activities or when processing special categories of personal data. You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time.

RioAce may share your personal information with third parties under specific circumstances and only when necessary for the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy:

• Service Providers: We engage trusted third-party service providers to perform functions on our behalf, such as payment processors, IT support, customer service platforms, identity verification services, and marketing agencies. These providers are contractually obligated to protect your data and use it only for the specified purposes.
• Regulatory and Law Enforcement Authorities: We may disclose your information to government bodies, regulatory authorities, or law enforcement agencies when required by law, to comply with legal processes, or to protect our rights, property, or safety, or the safety of others.
• Fraud Prevention Agencies: To prevent fraud and money laundering, we may share your data with specialized agencies and other online gaming operators.
• Affiliates and Group Companies: Your data may be shared with companies within the RioAce corporate group for operational, analytical, and marketing purposes, subject to this Privacy Policy.
• Business Transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or a portion of our assets, your personal information may be transferred to the acquiring entity. We will notify you of any such change in ownership or control of your personal data.
• With Your Consent: We may share your information with other third parties when you have given us explicit consent to do so.

We do not sell your personal data to third parties for their independent marketing purposes.

RioAce implements robust technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, accidental loss, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. Our security measures include:

• Encryption: All data transmitted between your device and RioAce servers is encrypted using Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology.

• Firewalls: Our systems are protected by firewalls to prevent unauthorized access.
• Regular Audits: We conduct regular security audits and vulnerability assessments to identify and address potential weaknesses.
• Data Minimization: We only collect and retain personal data that is necessary for the purposes outlined in this policy.

While we strive to protect your personal data, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security, but we continuously work to enhance our security protocols.

• Right to Data Portability: You can request to receive your personal data in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format, and to transmit that data to another controller.
• Right to Object: You have the right to object to the processing of your personal data based on legitimate interests or for direct marketing purposes.
• Rights in Relation to Automated Decision Making and Profiling: You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you.

If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us immediately.
