Westio Privacy Policy

Introduction and Scope for the United States

This Privacy Policy explains how Westio (“Westio,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, stores, and discloses information relating to people who use its website, accounts, games, and associated services. It also describes choices that may be available to users regarding their information.

This policy applies to information processed in connection with Westio’s online gambling and entertainment services, including account registration, access to games, customer support, payment-related activity, and use of the website or mobile-compatible platform. It applies whether a person visits the platform, registers an account, or otherwise interacts with its services. Separate notices or terms may apply to particular features or processing activities; where applicable, those notices should be read together with this policy.

The policy is intended for users located in the United States. Privacy rights and obligations may vary by location and by the circumstances in which information is processed. This policy provides general information and does not replace any additional notice required by applicable law. Where a specific practice depends on an individual’s location, account status, or service use, the details may be provided in an applicable notice or at the time information is collected.

Types of Information We Collect

The information we collect depends on how a person interacts with Westio. We may collect information directly from users, automatically through the platform, or from third parties where permitted and appropriate.

Personal information may include information used to identify or contact a person, such as a name, date of birth, postal address, telephone number, email address, and account login details. In connection with account creation, identity or age verification, fraud prevention, or compliance obligations, we may request additional information or documentation. Such information may include identity records, information about a user’s eligibility to access a service, and details needed to assess whether account activity is consistent with applicable requirements.

Transaction and account information may include account settings, records of deposits or withdrawals, payment method details or related transaction references, game activity, bonus or promotion participation, loyalty-program status, and communications concerning an account. We may receive or process payment-related information through service providers. The information available to Westio may depend on the payment method and provider involved.

Technical information may be collected when a person visits or uses the platform. It may include an internet protocol address, device and browser characteristics, operating system, language settings, approximate location derived from technical data, pages or games viewed, access dates and times, referring pages, and information about interactions with website features. We may also collect diagnostic, performance, and security data, including records that help detect errors, unauthorized access, or unusual activity.

Voluntary information is information a person chooses to provide. This may include the contents of a message to customer support, feedback, survey responses, information submitted in connection with a dispute, or preferences selected in an account. Users should avoid including sensitive personal information in communications unless it is reasonably necessary for the matter being addressed.

Information may be combined across sources where appropriate for the purposes described in this policy. If a person does not provide information required for an account function, verification, or other service, Westio may be unable to provide that function or service.

How We Use Information

Westio may use information to provide and operate the platform, create and administer accounts, enable access to games, process transactions, and maintain account records. Information may also be used to verify identity or eligibility, support account security, and address user requests.

We may use information to communicate with users about account activity, service notices, verification matters, support requests, and changes to applicable terms or policies. Where permitted, we may also use it to administer promotions, tournaments, loyalty features, or other optional platform functions. A user’s participation in any such feature may involve additional terms or notices.

Information may be used to maintain, analyze, and improve the reliability, functionality, and security of the platform. This may include troubleshooting technical problems, testing features, monitoring service performance, and understanding aggregate patterns of use. We may use information to identify, investigate, and prevent fraud, misuse, security incidents, and activity that may breach platform terms or applicable requirements.

We may also process information to meet legal obligations, respond to lawful requests, establish or defend legal claims, enforce agreements, and protect the rights, safety, or property of users, Westio, or others. The specific purposes for processing may depend on the information and the context in which it was collected.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Westio and its service providers may use cookies, pixels, software development kits, log files, and similar technologies. These technologies may store or access information on a device, recognize a browser or device on later visits, and help operate the platform.

Some technologies are used for functions necessary to provide or secure the website, such as maintaining a session, remembering selected settings, supporting account access, or detecting suspicious activity. Other technologies may help measure website use, diagnose performance issues, or understand how users interact with particular features.

Available browser or device controls may allow a user to block or delete certain cookies. Disabling or restricting technologies may affect the availability or operation of some platform functions. Where consent or other choices are required by applicable law, Westio will provide relevant controls or notices as appropriate. The effect of a particular choice may depend on the technology and the service being used.

Data Sharing and Disclosure

Westio may share information with service providers that perform functions on its behalf, such as hosting, technical operations, security, analytics, payment processing, identity verification, customer support, and communication delivery. These providers may process information only as appropriate to provide their services or as otherwise permitted by applicable arrangements and law.

Information may be disclosed to relevant parties when necessary to process a transaction, provide a requested feature, address a dispute, or respond to a user’s request. The information shared will depend on the circumstances and the role of the parties involved.

We may disclose information to public authorities, regulators, courts, or other parties where we believe disclosure is required or permitted by law, necessary to respond to a valid legal process, or appropriate to protect people, rights, property, or platform security. Information may also be disclosed in connection with investigating suspected fraud, violations of platform terms, or other potentially unlawful conduct.

If Westio undergoes a reorganization, financing, acquisition, transfer of assets, or similar business transaction, information may be disclosed to parties involved in evaluating or completing that transaction, subject to appropriate safeguards and applicable law. We may also share aggregated or de-identified information that is not reasonably used to identify an individual.

Westio does not disclose information for purposes beyond those described in this policy unless the person has been informed, provides consent where required, or the disclosure is otherwise permitted or required by law.

Data Storage and Security Measures

Westio retains information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, including providing services, maintaining account and transaction records, addressing disputes, enforcing agreements, and meeting legal or security requirements. Retention periods may vary according to the type of information, its purpose, and applicable obligations. Information may be deleted, anonymized, or securely disposed of when it is no longer reasonably needed, subject to lawful retention requirements.

Westio uses administrative, technical, and organizational measures intended to protect information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, and disclosure. Measures may include access controls, monitoring, staff procedures, and encryption in relevant contexts. The platform information provided describes the use of SSL encryption to safeguard certain transmissions, including financial transactions and personal information. Security measures are reviewed and adjusted as appropriate to the nature of the information and the risks involved.

No method of transmission or storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Users are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of their account credentials and for notifying Westio through an available support channel if they believe an account or information has been compromised. Westio’s response to a security incident will depend on its nature and applicable requirements.

User Rights and Choices

Depending on the circumstances and applicable law, users may have rights concerning personal information, including the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of certain information; to object to or restrict particular processing; or to obtain a copy of information in a usable format. Rights may be subject to exceptions, verification requirements, and limitations established by law.

Users may also have choices relating to optional cookies, device settings, and certain communications. Account information may be reviewed or updated through available account features, where provided. Some information may need to be retained or processed despite a request, for example where necessary to complete a transaction, maintain required records, protect security, or resolve a dispute.

Requests should be made through a privacy or support channel made available by Westio. Westio may need to verify the requester’s identity and may seek additional information reasonably necessary to assess a request. If a request is denied in whole or in part, the reason may depend on the applicable legal requirements and circumstances. A user may have the right to challenge or appeal a decision where applicable law provides that right.

International Data Transfers

Westio and its service providers may process or store information in locations outside the place where a user is located. The privacy and data-protection laws in those locations may differ from those that apply where the user resides. Where required, Westio will use safeguards or other lawful mechanisms for relevant transfers. The safeguards used may depend on the destination, the recipient, and the applicable legal requirements.

Protection of Minors

Westio’s services are intended only for individuals who are legally permitted to use online gambling services in their location. The platform is not intended for minors, and Westio does not knowingly seek to collect personal information from minors for access to gambling services.

Age or eligibility information may be requested or checked as part of account verification. If Westio becomes aware that information has been collected from a person who is not eligible to use the services, it may take appropriate steps, which may include restricting or closing the account and addressing the information in accordance with applicable law. A person who believes a minor has provided information to Westio may raise the matter through an available support channel.

Policy Updates and Changes

Westio may revise this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in its services, information practices, security measures, or legal requirements. The revised policy will be made available on the platform, with an updated effective or revision date where appropriate. If a change materially affects how information is handled, Westio may provide an additional notice through the platform or another appropriate means.

A revised policy applies from the date it is made effective, subject to any requirements that apply to the change. Continued use of the platform after a revised policy becomes effective may be subject to the updated terms. Users should review this policy periodically to understand the current practices described here.
