As a licensed operator, PowerUp Casino is legally obligated to conduct Know Your Customer (KYC) checks and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) screening.

We process user data to detect, investigate, and prevent fraud, money laundering, and other illegal or unauthorised activities. Our information security measures include 256-bit SSL/TLS encryption, firewall protection, and continuous monitoring of account activity.

PowerUp Casino processes gaming activity data and account information to support responsible gambling tools, including deposit limits, bet limits, loss limits, session time limits, cooling-off periods (24 hours, 48 hours, 7 days, or 30 days), and self-exclusion options ranging from 6 months to permanent. This processing is conducted in the interest of player wellbeing and regulatory compliance.

With your consent, PowerUp Casino may use your contact details to send promotional emails, bonus offers, game announcements, and other marketing materials.
