5. Legal Basis and Regulatory Compliance
Australian privacy law requires us to handle personal information in accordance with the 13 Australian Privacy Principles. These principles govern how we collect data fairly, keep it accurate, store it securely, and give you access to it. Fastpay Casino takes these obligations seriously and has implemented internal practices to ensure ongoing compliance.
In addition to the Privacy Act, we comply with obligations under:
- The Interactive Gambling Act 2001 (Cth), which governs the provision of online gambling services to Australian residents
- The Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorism Financing Act 2006 (Cth) and associated Rules, which require us to collect and retain certain customer data
- The Spam Act 2003 (Cth), under which we only send commercial electronic messages with your consent and provide a clear opt-out mechanism
- State and territory laws relating to responsible gambling, where applicable
6. Identity Verification and KYC Requirements
Before processing withdrawals or when prompted by our compliance systems, Fastpay Casino is required to verify the identity of account holders. This is not optional; it is a legal requirement under AML/CTF legislation and responsible gambling standards.
During the verification process, we may ask you to submit:
- A government-issued photo ID (passport or Australian driver’s licence)
- Proof of address (utility bill or bank statement dated within the last 90 days)
- Proof of payment method ownership
- Source of funds documentation in higher-risk cases
All identity documents are handled with strict confidentiality and are processed using secure, encrypted channels. We retain these documents only for as long as legally required and then securely dispose of them.
7. Disclosure of Your Information
Fastpay Casino does not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We may share your data only in the following circumstances and with the following types of recipients:
7.1 Service Providers
We engage third-party companies to assist with platform operations, including payment processing, identity verification, customer support software, fraud detection, and data hosting. These providers are bound by confidentiality agreements and are not permitted to use your data for any purpose other than the service they provide to us.
7.2 Regulatory and Law Enforcement Bodies
We may disclose information to AUSTRAC, the Australian Federal Police, or other authorities where required by law, where we suspect money laundering or fraud, or in response to a valid court order or regulatory direction.
7.3 Responsible Gambling Agencies
Where a player has self-excluded or where we have identified potential problem gambling behaviour, we may share relevant account information with recognised Australian responsible gambling services or registers, as required.
7.4 Corporate Transactions
In the event of a merger, acquisition, or restructuring of the business, your personal information may be transferred to the acquiring entity. You will be notified of any such change that materially affects how your data is handled.
8. International Data Transfers
Some of our third-party service providers operate outside of Australia. When we transfer your personal information overseas, we take steps to ensure the recipient is subject to a law or binding agreement that provides substantially similar protections to those under the Australian Privacy Principles, as required by APP 8.
Countries to which data may be transferred include those within the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, Malta, and other jurisdictions where our technology or operational partners are based. We do not transfer data to countries with inadequate privacy frameworks without appropriate safeguards in place.

12. Responsible Gambling and Sensitive Information
Information relating to your gambling behaviour, self-exclusion status, or participation in responsible gambling programmes is treated as sensitive personal information. We handle this data with a higher standard of care and do not use it for marketing purposes.
If you set deposit limits, cooling-off periods, or request self-exclusion through your account settings, these preferences are recorded and enforced across all sessions. We may also share this information with national self-exclusion registers where applicable, such as those coordinated under state-based gambling regulations.
Players concerned about their gambling can reach out to support services such as Gambling Help Online at gamblinghelponline.org.au or call 1800 858 858.
