Dude Spin Privacy Policy NZ | Privacy Act 2020 Compliant

Who we are

Dude Spin operates the website at dudespin.us. We are an independent affiliate guide for New Zealand online casino players. We are the data controller for any personal information collected through this site. For privacy queries, email hello@dudespin.us.

What we collect

When you visit dudespin.us we collect basic technical data such as your IP address, browser type, device type, screen size, referrer URL and the pages you view. This helps us understand how the site is used and improve it over time.

If you contact us by email, we keep your message and reply for support history. We do not collect financial information through this site. All deposits, withdrawals and account activity are handled by the partner casino under their own privacy policy.

If you submit a contact form or comment, we collect the name, email address and message you provide.

Legal basis for processing

We process technical visit data on the basis of legitimate interest in operating and improving the site. We process contact form submissions and email correspondence on the basis of your consent and our legitimate interest in responding. Where you click an affiliate link, we share the click event with the partner casino on the basis of legitimate interest in attribution.

How we use the data

Technical data is used for site analytics, fraud prevention and to improve content. We use anonymised aggregate reports rather than individual tracking wherever possible.

Email content is used solely to respond to your enquiry. We do not add visitor email addresses to marketing lists from this site.

Cookies and analytics

We use a small number of cookies to remember preferences and to power analytics. The Cookie Policy page lists each cookie, its purpose and its lifetime.

Third parties

When you click an affiliate link to a partner casino, your visit is logged by the affiliate tracker so the operator can attribute the signup back to Dude Spin. The operator becomes the data controller from that point.

We use Google Analytics for aggregate site measurement and Cloudflare for content delivery and security. These providers process technical data under their own privacy policies.

Your rights under New Zealand law

Under the Privacy Act 2020 you have the right to access, correct or request deletion of personal information we hold about you. Email us via the Contact page to make a request.

You also have the right to complain to the Office of the Privacy Commissioner if you believe we have mishandled your information. We will respond to access and correction requests within 20 working days.

Data security and retention

We use industry standard security including TLS encryption and access controls. Data is retained only as long as needed for the purpose stated, then anonymised or deleted.

Server logs are retained for 90 days then anonymised. Email correspondence is retained for two years. Aggregate analytics data is retained for 26 months in line with default Google Analytics settings.

Data location

Site infrastructure is hosted on global cloud providers with primary data centres in Sydney and Singapore. Cloudflare cache servers may temporarily hold static content closer to NZ visitors. Where data leaves New Zealand, comparable privacy protections are required of every supplier.

Children

Dude Spin is intended for adults aged 20 and over. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 20. If you believe a minor has submitted information, contact us so we can remove it.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The updated date at the bottom of the page reflects the most recent change. Material changes will be flagged on the homepage for at least 14 days before they take effect.
