6. Data Retention Period

Britsino retains your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, in accordance with GDPR storage limitation principles. The specific retention periods depend on the type of data and our legal obligations.

Account information and transaction records are retained for a minimum of five years following the closure of your account, as required by anti-money laundering regulations and gaming licence conditions. This period may be extended where necessary for ongoing legal proceedings or regulatory investigations.

Identity verification documents are retained for the duration of your account relationship and for five years thereafter to comply with regulatory requirements and to defend against potential claims.

When retention periods expire, your personal data is securely deleted or anonymised so that it can no longer be associated with you.
