International Transfers
Observe: Some of our service providers and group companies are located outside the United Kingdom, including in Gibraltar and other jurisdictions.
Expand: Where your personal data is transferred outside the UK, we ensure that an adequate level of protection is in place, in particular by:
- Relying on UK "adequacy regulations" where the destination country is deemed to provide an essentially equivalent level of protection.
- Entering into appropriate contractual safeguards with recipients, such as the UK International Data Transfer Agreement or the UK addendum to the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses.
- Applying technical and organisational measures such as encryption, access controls and data minimisation to reduce transfer-related risks.
Reflect: Transfers related to Monopoly Casino commonly involve Gibraltar and other locations where hosting, support or verification services are provided. You may contact us for more information about the specific safeguards used for a given transfer.
Data Retention
Observe: We keep your personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy and as required by law and our regulatory obligations.

| Technical logs and security data | Typically between 12 and 24 months, unless a longer period is needed for security investigations or legal proceedings. |
| Cookies | In line with their technical lifetime, as described in our cookie tools and browser settings. |
Reflect: When data is no longer required, we will securely delete or irreversibly anonymise it. In some cases we may retain limited information (for example, your name, date of birth and exclusion status) to comply with responsible gambling and self-exclusion obligations.
Your Rights
Observe: Under the UK GDPR and other applicable data protection laws, you have a range of rights in relation to your personal data processed in connection with Monopoly Casino on monopoliic.com.
Expand: These rights include, where relevant:
- Right of access: to obtain confirmation as to whether we process your personal data and, if so, to receive a copy and certain information about how it is used.
- Right to rectification: to have inaccurate or incomplete personal data corrected or completed.
- Right to erasure: to request deletion of your personal data where it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, where you withdraw consent (where consent was the lawful basis) or where you successfully object to processing. Legal and regulatory obligations (for example, gambling and AML rules) may limit this right.
- Right to restriction: to request that we limit the processing of your data in certain circumstances (for example, while we verify its accuracy or assess an objection).
- Right to object: to object at any time to processing based on our legitimate interests and to object to direct marketing (including profiling for marketing) at any time.

Reflect: To exercise any of these rights, contact our data protection contact point as described in the "Who We Are" or "Complaints & Contacts" sections, clearly stating which right you wish to exercise and providing sufficient information to verify your identity. We will respond without undue delay and in any event within one month of receipt of your request; this period may be extended by up to two further months for complex or multiple requests, in which case we will inform you of the extension and reasons. We will not charge a fee for handling your request unless it is manifestly unfounded or excessive.
Where Mexican privacy laws (such as the Federal Law on the Protection of Personal Data Held by Private Parties) or EU data protection law apply to you in addition to UK law, we aim to align our practices with those frameworks, subject to our overriding legal and regulatory obligations in the UK gambling context.
