How Collected Information Is Used

Protection of Children’s Privacy
Ozwin is an online gaming and wagering platform intended exclusively for individuals aged 18 years and over. The collection of personal information from minors is strictly prohibited.

Access to Ozwin’s services is restricted to adults. Users must confirm they are 18 years of age or older at the point of registration. The platform does not knowingly collect or store personal information from individuals under the age of 18.
Limitations on Age Verification

- The minor’s account will be closed;
- All associated personal data will be deleted from Ozwin’s systems in accordance with applicable privacy obligations.
Ozwin takes the protection of minors seriously and will act promptly on any verified parental or guardian request.
International Transfers of Personal Data
As an online platform, Ozwin operates with the support of service providers and business partners located in various countries. As a result, personal data collected from Australian users may be transferred to, stored in, or processed in countries outside of Australia.
Where Data May Be Processed
Personal information may be handled in jurisdictions where Ozwin’s technology infrastructure, payment processors, or operational partners are based. These locations may not have data protection laws equivalent to those in Australia.
User Consent to International Transfers
By using Ozwin’s online services, users consent to the transfer of their personal data to overseas recipients as described in this document. Ozwin takes steps to ensure that any such transfers are conducted with appropriate safeguards in place.

- Maintain the confidentiality of all personal information provided to them;
- Process data only for the specific purposes authorised by Ozwin;
- Implement appropriate technical and organisational security measures;
- Comply with applicable data protection and privacy standards.
Ozwin does not transfer personal data to overseas recipients without first assessing their ability to provide adequate protections consistent with Australian privacy obligations.
