1. Introduction
This Privacy Policy describes how newzealand22bet.com ("we", "us", "our" or the "Website") collects, uses, discloses and protects personal information when you visit and use this Website. We handle personal information in accordance with the New Zealand Privacy Act 2020 and its thirteen Information Privacy Principles (IPPs).
newzealand22bet.com is an independent information resource about online casino and sports betting services. We are not a gambling operator, we do not accept deposits or wagers, and we do not hold player accounts. This Policy applies only to this Website and not to any third-party websites that you may reach through links published here.
2. Information We Collect
We collect a limited amount of information, and most of it does not identify you directly:
- Technical and usage data. When you visit the Website, our hosting infrastructure and analytics tools may automatically record your IP address, browser type and version, operating system, device type, screen resolution, referring pages, the pages you view, the date and time of your visit and the approximate (city-level) location derived from your IP address.
- Cookie data. We use cookies and similar technologies as described in our Cookie Policy.
- Voluntarily provided information. If you contact us by email, we receive your email address and any information you choose to include in your message.
We do not knowingly collect financial information, government identifiers or other sensitive information, and we do not knowingly collect information from persons under 18 years of age.
3. Purpose of Collection (IPP 1)
We collect the information described above only for purposes connected with running this Website:
- to operate, maintain and secure the Website;
- to measure audience and understand how visitors use our content, so we can improve it;
- to detect, prevent and address technical issues, fraud or abuse;
- to respond to enquiries you send to us;
- to comply with applicable legal obligations.
We do not sell personal information, and we do not use it for automated decision-making that produces legal or similarly significant effects on you.
4. Source and Manner of Collection (IPPs 2–4)
We collect information directly from you and from your device when you use the Website. Collection happens through ordinary web technologies — server logs, cookies and analytics scripts — in a way that is lawful, fair and not unreasonably intrusive.
5. Storage, Security and Retention (IPPs 5 and 9)
We apply reasonable safeguards to protect personal information against loss, misuse and unauthorised access, including encrypted connections (HTTPS), access controls and regular software updates. Server logs and analytics data are kept only as long as necessary for the purposes above and in any event no longer than 24 months, unless the law requires a longer period. Email correspondence is retained for as long as needed to handle your enquiry and for a reasonable period afterwards. No method of transmission over the Internet is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
6. Disclosure (IPP 11)
We may disclose information to:
- Service providers that host the Website, provide analytics or deliver security services, only to the extent necessary for them to perform their functions;
- Authorities, where disclosure is required or permitted by law, court order or other legal process, or where it is necessary to protect our rights, property or safety or those of others;
- Successors, in connection with a merger, acquisition or sale of assets, in which case we will require the successor to honour this Policy.
Some of our service providers may be located outside New Zealand. Where personal information is disclosed overseas, we take reasonable steps to ensure it is subject to safeguards comparable to those of the Privacy Act 2020 (IPP 12).
7. Third-Party Links
The Website contains links to third-party websites, including gambling operators and comparison services. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of those websites. When you follow an external link, the privacy policy of the destination website applies. Read it before providing any personal information, especially before registering a gambling account.
8. Your Rights (IPPs 6 and 7)
Under the Privacy Act 2020 you have the right to:
- ask for confirmation of whether we hold personal information about you and request access to it;
- request correction of personal information that is wrong or incomplete;
- complain to us about how your information has been handled;
- complain to the Office of the Privacy Commissioner (privacy.org.nz) if you are not satisfied with our response.
9. Children and Minors
This Website is intended for adults aged 18 or over, in line with the New Zealand age limit for online gambling. We do not knowingly collect personal information from minors. If you believe a minor has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.
10. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The date of the latest revision is shown at the top of this page. Material changes will be indicated by a prominent notice on the Website. Your continued use of the Website after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised Policy.
