1Red Privacy Policy
This document explains how 1Red collects, processes, protects, discloses, and deletes personal information for its online casino and sportsbook services. It covers the types of data we collect, why we use it, how long we retain it, and who may receive it. The use of personal data is based on user consent, obtained during registration and through site settings. The policy also outlines security standards and user rights under EU and Irish law.
Privacy and Data Protection

- Contact details: email, phone number, account identifiers, and user communications.
- Account and gameplay data: usernames, preferences, responsible gambling settings (limits, time-outs, self-exclusion), session logs, and support tickets.

Purpose of collection

- Improve service performance, fix errors, and develop new features based on aggregated analytics.
- Send service communications and, where consented, marketing messages relevant to the user.
Protection measures

- Access controls: role-based access, least privilege, multi-factor authentication, session timeouts.
- Monitoring and logging: security monitoring, audit trails, and anomaly detection.
- Vendor governance: due diligence, data processing agreements, and ongoing reviews of processors.
- Data minimisation and retention: keep only necessary information for limited periods set by law and policy.
- Secure development and testing: change management, vulnerability scanning, and penetration testing.

Access to Information
How to exercise rights

Protection of Children’s Privacy

- The policy does not create rights beyond those provided by law and contract, and it does not diminish rights that cannot be limited by agreement.
