Verification, fraud-prevention, payment, compliance and responsible-play checks may involve trusted third parties where permitted by law.
Why Virgin Casino uses personal information
Virgin Casino uses personal information only where there is a valid reason. Some uses are necessary to provide casino account services; others support legal obligations, security, customer care, responsible play or communication preferences.

Cookies, device data and similar technologies
Cookies and similar technologies help the Virgin Casino website work correctly, remember choices, protect logins, measure performance and manage marketing preferences. Essential cookies are needed for core functionality; non-essential cookies should be managed through the available cookie controls.
Essential cookies
These support login sessions, security, payment journeys, fraud prevention and basic website operation. Without them, key account features may not work as expected.
Preference and analytics cookies
These may remember display choices, help understand how pages are used and support improvements. Availability depends on your settings and consent choices.
Marketing cookies
These may help tailor promotional messaging or measure campaigns where permitted. You can adjust marketing preferences and cookie choices where the site provides controls.
Security signals
Device, browser and session signals can help detect suspicious activity, protect your account and reduce unauthorised access.
Marketing preferences and service messages
Virgin Casino may send service messages that are necessary for account operation, such as security notices, payment updates, verification requests, policy updates or responsible-play information.

When personal information may be shared
Virgin Casino does not need to sell player data to operate a casino account. Personal information may be shared only where there is a legitimate reason, such as running the website, processing payments, verifying identity, preventing fraud, meeting legal obligations or resolving support issues.
Service providers
Hosting, payment, verification, security, analytics, communications and customer support providers may process data on behalf of Virgin Casino.
Regulators and authorities
Information may be shared when required by law, licence obligations, lawful requests, fraud prevention, anti-money-laundering duties or dispute handling.
Responsible-play partners
Some account controls, self-exclusion checks or player protection processes may involve relevant safer gambling systems where applicable.
Where data is processed by third parties, Virgin Casino should use appropriate agreements, security measures and access controls. If information is transferred outside the United Kingdom, suitable safeguards should be used where required by data protection law.
Account verification, safer gambling and privacy
Privacy and player protection work together. Virgin Casino may use personal information to confirm your age, verify your identity, protect your payment methods, apply account limits, support self-exclusion checks and identify activity that may require safer gambling support.
How long Virgin Casino keeps personal information
Virgin Casino keeps personal information only for as long as it is needed for the purpose collected, or for longer where legal, regulatory, accounting, fraud-prevention, safer gambling or dispute-resolution obligations apply. Retention periods can differ by data type.
Retention decision path
A clear timeline for how data is reviewed from active account use to secure deletion or archiving.
Some data cannot be removed immediately on request if Virgin Casino must keep it to comply with law, protect legal rights, prevent fraud or maintain a required safer gambling record.
Your UK data protection rights
United Kingdom data protection law gives individuals rights over personal data. These rights are important, but some are qualified and may not apply in every situation, especially where legal or regulatory gambling obligations require records to be kept.

| Right of access | You can ask for a copy of personal data held about you. | Request account, contact, transaction or support information linked to your profile. |
| Right to rectification | You can ask for inaccurate or incomplete data to be corrected. | Update a changed address, phone number or email if the account area does not allow it directly. |
| Right to erasure | You can ask for data to be deleted in certain circumstances. | Ask whether data can be removed when it is no longer needed, subject to compliance requirements. |
| Right to restrict processing | You can ask for processing to be limited in certain cases. | Ask for a review if data accuracy or use is being challenged. |
| Right to object | You can object to some processing, including direct marketing. | Stop promotional messages while still receiving essential account and safety notices. |
| Right to data portability | You can ask for certain data in a usable format where the right applies. | Request eligible account information that you provided in a structured format. |
| Rights about automated decisions | You can ask about certain decisions made solely by automated processing where the right applies. | Ask for information if an automated process significantly affects account access or use. |
You can learn more about individual rights from the Information Commissioner’s Office. If you contact Virgin Casino about a right, include enough detail to find your account securely and describe the information or action you want.
