Privacy Policy
Last updated: 2026-05-13
This Privacy Policy explains how Ripper Casino Australia ("we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, discloses, and protects your personal information when you visit this website (rippercasino-australia.net). This Policy is governed by the Australian Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the 13 Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) contained therein.
1. Who We Are
Ripper Casino Australia is an independent editorial publication covering offshore casino brands for an Australian audience. We are not a gambling operator and do not provide gambling services. We act as an APP entity for the purposes of the Privacy Act 1988 in respect of the personal information we collect through this website.
2. Personal Information We Collect
We collect only the minimum personal information needed to operate this website and respond to enquiries. Specifically:
- Contact information you provide voluntarily when you email us — typically your name, email address, and the content of your message.
- Technical information automatically collected when you visit the site — IP address, browser type, device type, operating system, pages visited, time spent on pages, referring URL, and approximate location derived from IP address.
- Cookie data as described in our Cookie Policy, including session cookies, analytics identifiers, and (where you consent) marketing identifiers.
We do not collect sensitive information (as defined under section 6 of the Privacy Act) such as health information, racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, or financial account details. We do not collect Tax File Numbers.
3. How We Use Your Information
We use personal information for the following purposes, consistent with APP 6:
- To respond to your enquiries and provide editorial support
- To measure and improve the quality of our content and user experience
- To detect, prevent, and respond to fraud, security incidents, and abuse of the website
- To comply with our legal obligations under Australian law
- To deliver, measure and (with your consent) personalise advertising via partners such as Google
4. Disclosure of Your Information
We do not sell personal information. We may disclose personal information to:
- Service providers who help us operate the website (hosting providers, analytics providers, email systems), under written confidentiality obligations
- Affiliate partners — when you click through from this website to an external casino, the affiliate platform may receive technical identifiers (referrer URL, click ID) to attribute the click. We do not transmit your name or email to affiliate partners.
- Law enforcement, regulators, or courts where required by Australian law, court order, or properly authorised request
Some of our service providers (e.g. Google Analytics, Google Ads) operate servers outside Australia, including in the United States and the European Union. Where we disclose personal information overseas, we take reasonable steps to ensure the overseas recipient handles the information consistently with the APPs (APP 8).
5. Your Rights Under the Privacy Act 1988
You have the following rights with respect to your personal information:
- Access — You may request access to the personal information we hold about you (APP 12)
- Correction — You may request that we correct personal information you believe is inaccurate, out of date, incomplete, irrelevant, or misleading (APP 13)
- Withdrawal of consent — Where we process information based on your consent (e.g. marketing cookies), you may withdraw that consent at any time
- Complaint — You may make a complaint about how we handle your personal information by writing to us first. If you are not satisfied with our response, you may complain to the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC) at oaic.gov.au or call 1300 363 992.
To exercise any of these rights, contact us at support@rippercasino-australia.net. We will respond to access and correction requests within 30 days.
6. How We Protect Your Information
We take reasonable steps under APP 11 to protect personal information from misuse, interference, loss, unauthorised access, modification, and disclosure. Measures include HTTPS encryption on the entire website, access controls on our editorial systems, and timely deletion of personal information that is no longer needed for the purpose for which it was collected.
7. Retention
We retain personal information only for as long as needed to fulfil the purposes set out in this Policy. Email correspondence is typically retained for 24 months. Anonymised analytics data may be retained for up to 26 months in line with Google Analytics defaults.
8. Children's Privacy
This website is intended exclusively for adults aged 18 and over. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.
9. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or applicable law. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page indicates when the Policy was most recently revised. We encourage you to review this Policy periodically.
