This privacy policy outlines how NorseMania collects, uses, stores, and protects your personal information when you access and use our online slot game platform. We are committed to safeguarding your privacy and ensuring transparency in all data handling practices. This document applies to all users accessing NorseMania services from New Zealand and explains your rights regarding the information we collect.
Information Collection and Use
NorseMania collects various types of information to provide and improve our gaming services.

During gameplay, we collect technical data such as IP address, device information, browser type, operating system, and game interaction statistics. Financial information is collected when you make deposits or withdrawals, including payment method details and transaction history. We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your gaming experience, remember your preferences, and analyse site traffic patterns. The information collected serves multiple purposes: verifying your identity and age, processing financial transactions, providing customer support, detecting and preventing fraudulent activities, complying with legal obligations, and improving our game features and user interface. All data collection practices align with privacy regulations applicable in New Zealand.

These measures include encryption of sensitive data during transmission using SSL technology, regular security audits and vulnerability assessments, restricted access to personal information limited to authorised personnel, firewall protection and intrusion detection systems, and secure backup procedures to prevent data loss. We retain your personal information for as long as your account remains active or as necessary to provide services. Following account closure, we maintain certain records to comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our terms and conditions. The retention periods vary depending on the type of information and applicable regulatory requirements.

Third-Party Sharing and Disclosure
NorseMania does not sell your personal information to third parties. However, we may share your data with carefully selected service providers and partners who assist in operating our platform and delivering services. These include payment processors who handle deposits and withdrawals, identity verification services that confirm your age and identity, customer support platforms that manage enquiries and assistance requests, game providers who supply slot game content, and regulatory bodies as required by gambling legislation. All third-party service providers are contractually obligated to maintain the confidentiality and security of your information and may only use it for the specific purposes we authorise. We may disclose your information without prior consent when required by law, court order, or government regulation, when necessary to protect our rights or property, to prevent fraud or illegal activities, or in connection with a business transfer such as a merger or acquisition. Safe gaming initiatives may involve sharing anonymised or aggregated data with responsible gambling organisations to support player protection programmes.
