Date of Last Update: March 14, 2025
1. INTRODUCTION
1.1. Purpose of This Policy
This GDPR Consent Policy (“Policy”) outlines how EWSweeps247.com (the “Platform”), operated by EZ Sweeps, Inc. (“Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), obtains and manages consent for the processing of personal data under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Our aim is to clarify the legal basis, scope, and nature of personal data processing for users located in or engaging from the European Union (EU) or European Economic Area (EEA).
1.2. Relationship to Other Policies
This Policy supplements our Terms & Conditions, Official Social Casino Rules, Cookie Policy, AML/BSA Compliance Policy, KYC Policy, and any other relevant guidelines published by EZ Sweeps, Inc.. If any conflict arises, the more stringent requirement—particularly as it relates to GDPR or ePrivacy legislation—prevails.
2. LAWFUL BASIS FOR PROCESSING
2.1. Consent Under GDPR
We rely on consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR) for any specific processing that is not strictly necessary nor otherwise justified by our legitimate interests, legal obligations, or other lawful bases (e.g., performance of a contract).
This Policy details the manner in which we collect, record, and manage that consent—particularly for marketing communications, cookies requiring opt-in, promotional data usage, or any optional data collection beyond basic account requirements.
2.2. Contractual and Compliance Bases
Beyond consent, we also process personal data under:
Article 6(1)(b) GDPR (performance of contract) for social casino gameplay operations;
Article 6(1)(c) GDPR (compliance with AML/KYC obligations).
In these contexts, user consent is not strictly required to fulfill lawful processing activities.
3. CONSENT COLLECTION AND RECORDS
3.1. Methods of Obtaining Consent
Registration Flows: If we request consent for marketing or additional optional features, you will see an unselected checkbox or a clear statement seeking that consent.
Cookie Consent Banner: Users in EU/EEA areas receive a banner (or preference center) allowing Accept, Reject, or Customize for non-essential cookies.
Marketing Communications: Upon signing up for newsletters or promotional alerts, we request your clear, affirmative action to show consent.
3.2. Granularity and Specificity
We strive for granular consent, meaning distinct permission requests for marketing emails, SMS, targeted advertising, etc. Each request’s scope is explicitly explained within the relevant sign-up or preference prompt.
3.3. Consent Recordkeeping
We keep an auditable log covering:
Date and time the consent was provided;
Specific statements or options presented;
Version of relevant policies in force at that time;
Method of user acceptance (e.g., checked box, digital signature).
4. RIGHT TO WITHDRAW CONSENT
4.1. Withdrawal Mechanisms
You may withdraw your previously granted consent at any time without detriment, typically via:
Unsubscribe link in marketing emails;
A dedicated account settings or preference center for notifications and cookie controls;
By contacting us directly at our Data Protection or Privacy email address.
4.2. Effect of Withdrawal
Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing performed prior to the withdrawal date.
If consent is essential to a service component (e.g., certain personalized promotions), revoking consent may disable or diminish that component’s functionality.
5. CHILDREN’S DATA
5.1. Age Restriction
We do not knowingly collect personal data from users under the legal age required by local law (18, or older in some jurisdictions). Our social casino environment is strictly for adults.
Any user found below the minimum permissible age will have their account terminated, and we will promptly erase associated data unless legally required to retain it.
5.2. Parental Consent
If we discover that a minor has furnished personal data without verifiable parental consent, we shall remove such data promptly, consistent with GDPR and other local laws.
6. DATA SUBJECT RIGHTS & GDPR COMPLIANCE
6.1. Core Rights
Under the GDPR, you hold the following rights about your personal data, subject to lawful exceptions:
Right of Access (Art. 15)
Right of Rectification (Art. 16)
Right to Erasure (Art. 17)
Right to Restrict Processing (Art. 18)
Right to Data Portability (Art. 20)
Right to Object (Art. 21)
Right not to be subject to Automated Decision-Making (Art. 22)
6.2. Exercising Rights
To activate these rights or to withdraw consent, please contact us at our designated Privacy Contact (refer to Section 8). We typically respond within one month, extendable by up to two additional months for complex or voluminous requests.
6.3. Complaint
If you think we are processing your data in violation of the GDPR, you have the right to file a complaint with your local Data Protection Authority or the relevant body in your country of residence.
7. RELATIONSHIP TO AML/KYC POLICIES
7.1. Mandatory Data Processing
Certain identification and transaction data may be needed for AML (Anti-Money Laundering) or KYC (Know Your Customer) compliance. For these categories, we rely on a legal obligation basis (Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR), not user consent.
Even if you withdraw consent for optional processing, we may still have to process or keep data to meet statutory requirements.
7.2. No Objection
Because AML/KYC compliance arises from a legal obligation, an objection or withdrawal of consent does not supersede our mandatory reporting or recordkeeping duties.
