Introduction and Scope
This Privacy Policy applies to all visitors and registered users of Courants Darts, operated by Courants Darts Entertainment Ltd at courants-darts.com. It covers personal data we process through our website, account system, community features, customer support channels and optional membership services. By accessing or using our platform, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this policy. Courants Darts is a free social casino that uses fictional Current Coins only — we do not process financial gambling transactions, payment card data for wagering purposes, or withdrawal requests because none of those activities exist on our platform.
-
Data Controller
The data controller responsible for your personal information is Courants Darts Entertainment Ltd, registered at Pier House, 14 Kings Road, Brighton BN1 1NE, United Kingdom. For any privacy-related enquiry, you may contact our Data Protection team at support@courants-darts.com or by post at the address above. We have appointed an internal privacy coordinator who oversees compliance with applicable data protection laws and responds to data subject requests within the timeframes required by law.
-
Information We Collect
We may collect the following categories of personal data: identity information (nickname, display name, avatar preferences); contact information (email address); account credentials (hashed passwords, never stored in plain text); technical data (IP address, browser type, device identifiers, operating system, referral URLs); usage data (pages visited, games played, session duration, Current Coins balance history, leaderboard participation); communication data (messages sent to support or community chat, subject to moderation); and membership billing data (payment method tokens processed by third-party payment providers, billing address, subscription status) if you choose an optional paid membership. We do not collect government-issued identification numbers, biometric data, or precise geolocation beyond country-level inference from IP address.
-
How We Collect Information
We collect personal data through several channels. Direct collection occurs when you register an account, update your profile, subscribe to a membership, contact support, participate in community events, or complete forms on our site. Automated collection happens through cookies, server logs, analytics tools and similar technologies described in our Cookie Policy. We may also receive limited information from third-party authentication providers if you choose to sign in through them, and from payment processors when you purchase an optional membership — we receive confirmation of payment status, not your full card number.
-
How We Use Your Information
We use your personal data to create and manage your account; deliver free social casino games and Current Coins features; provide customer support and respond to enquiries; send service-related notifications such as password resets and policy updates; operate community leaderboards, events and chat features; process optional membership subscriptions and deliver associated perks; analyse platform performance and improve user experience; detect and prevent fraud, abuse and security incidents; comply with legal obligations; and enforce our Terms of Use. We do not use your data to facilitate real-money gambling, because our platform does not offer it. Marketing emails are sent only where permitted by law and always include an unsubscribe option.
-
Legal Bases for Processing
Depending on your jurisdiction and the type of processing involved, we rely on one or more of the following legal bases: performance of a contract (providing the services you register for); legitimate interests (platform security, analytics, service improvement, fraud prevention — balanced against your rights); consent (non-essential cookies, optional marketing communications, certain analytics); and legal obligation (responding to lawful requests from authorities, retaining records as required). Where consent is the basis, you may withdraw it at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.
-
Cookies and Similar Technologies
We use cookies, local storage and similar technologies to keep you signed in, remember your preferences, measure site traffic and improve performance. Essential cookies are necessary for the platform to function and cannot be disabled without breaking core features. Analytics and preference cookies are used only with your consent where required by law. For a detailed breakdown of every cookie category, name, purpose and retention period, please read our dedicated Cookie Policy. You can manage your cookie preferences through our consent banner or your browser settings at any time.
-
Sharing and Disclosure
We do not sell your personal data. We may share information with trusted service providers who assist us under strict contractual obligations: cloud hosting providers, email delivery services, analytics platforms, payment processors for optional memberships, customer support tools and security vendors. We may disclose data when required by law, court order or regulatory authority, or when necessary to protect the rights, safety and property of Courants Darts, our users or the public. In the event of a corporate merger, acquisition or asset sale, your data may transfer to the successor entity subject to equivalent privacy protections. Aggregated, anonymised statistics that cannot identify you may be shared publicly or with partners.
-
International Data Transfers
Courants Darts Entertainment Ltd is based in the United Arab Emirates, and our service providers may process data in the UAE, the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, North America and other regions. When personal data is transferred outside your country of residence, we implement appropriate safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses approved by relevant authorities, adequacy decisions where available, and binding corporate rules or equivalent mechanisms. You may request further information about the safeguards applied to your data by contacting support@courants-darts.com.
-
Data Retention
We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this policy. Active account data is kept for the duration of your account plus a reasonable grace period. After account deletion, we remove or anonymise personal data within ninety days, except where longer retention is required for legal, tax, dispute resolution or security purposes. Server logs and security records may be retained for up to twelve months. Membership billing records are kept for seven years where required by applicable accounting regulations. Cookie lifespans are specified in our Cookie Policy.
-
Your Privacy Rights
Depending on your location, you may have the right to access the personal data we hold about you; request correction of inaccurate data; request deletion of your data (subject to legal exceptions); restrict or object to certain processing; receive your data in a portable format; withdraw consent where processing is consent-based; and lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. To exercise any of these rights, email support@courants-darts.com with sufficient detail for us to verify your identity. We respond within thirty days, or sooner where required by applicable law. We will not discriminate against you for exercising your privacy rights.
-
Children's Privacy
Courants Darts is intended exclusively for adults aged eighteen and over. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under eighteen. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal data, please contact us immediately at support@courants-darts.com and we will take prompt steps to delete that information and close any associated account. Our age gate on first visit is one layer of protection; we encourage parents to use device-level parental controls as an additional safeguard.
-
Data Security
We implement technical and organisational measures designed to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure or destruction. These include TLS encryption for data in transit, hashed password storage, role-based access controls for staff, regular security assessments, intrusion detection monitoring and secure development practices. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. If we become aware of a data breach that affects your rights, we will notify you and relevant authorities as required by applicable law.
-
Third-Party Links and Services
Our platform may contain links to external websites such as responsible gaming helplines, social media pages or partner resources. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those third parties. We encourage you to read the privacy policies of any external site you visit. Embedded game demos and payment pages operated by third parties are subject to their own terms and privacy notices. We select providers carefully but do not control their independent data practices.
-
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, legal requirements or business operations. When we make material changes, we will post the updated policy on this page with a revised effective date and, where appropriate, notify registered users by email or through an on-site notice. Your continued use of Courants Darts after the effective date of an updated policy constitutes acceptance of the changes, unless applicable law requires your explicit consent for specific changes.
