How personal information is used

We use personal data for specific, lawful purposes:

  • Account setup and servicing, including verification and user support.
  • Processing deposits, withdrawals, and transaction-related communications.
  • Security, fraud detection, risk management, and incident response.
  • Compliance checks, including anti-money laundering, sanctions screening, and reporting to regulators where required.
  • Geolocation checks to meet provincial requirements and to restrict access where the services are not permitted.
  • Improving websites, apps, and user experience through analytics and research.
  • Personalization of settings and content limited to what is necessary.
  • Marketing communications only where consent has been given, with simple opt-out options.
  • Enforcement of terms and resolution of disputes.

Pinco processes information transparently and limits collection and use to what is necessary for the stated purposes.

Access, updates, and deletion requests

You can request access to your information, ask for corrections, or request deletion subject to legal limits.

How to exercise your rights:

  • Access or export: submit a request through account settings where available or email [email protected].
  • Correction: tell us what is inaccurate and provide supporting details; we correct or note the dispute.
  • Deletion and withdrawal of consent: request closure of your account and deletion or anonymization of personal data that we are not required to retain.
  • Timing: we aim to respond within 30 days, as required by Canadian privacy law.
  • Verification: we may ask for proof of identity before acting on a request.

By using Pinco, you consent to security checks and payment processing performed by approved providers. This includes identity verification, sanctions and politically exposed person screening, source-of-funds inquiries where required, and payment processing by PCI DSS-compliant processors. Full payment card numbers are handled by those providers and are not stored on our systems.

Minors and age restrictions

The services are intended for adults 18 years of age or older. Users must also meet the legal gambling age in their province or territory if it is higher than 18. We cannot verify age without suitable documents and may request proof when necessary.

If a minor’s information has been collected, a parent or legal guardian may contact [email protected] to request deletion. Upon confirmation, we will close the account and remove personal data that we are not legally required to retain.

Cross-border processing and storage

Personal information may be processed or stored outside Canada where our partners, service providers, or data centres operate, such as the United States, the European Union, or the United Kingdom. By using the websites and services, you consent to these international transfers.

Safeguards for international transfers:

  • Contractual protections that require confidentiality, security, and limited use of information.
  • Access controls, encryption, and auditing by service providers.
  • For Quebec residents, transfers are subject to a privacy impact assessment and written agreements that ensure adequate protection in line with Law 25.

Pinco requires partners to protect personal data and handle it only for authorized purposes.

Cookies and similar technologies

Cookies are small files stored on your device by websites to remember preferences and improve functionality. We use cookies for statistics, behaviour analysis, personalization, security, and site improvement. The standard retention period for non-essential cookies is up to 1 year.

Types of cookies we may use:

  • Essential: required for login, security, and core functions.

Your acceptance of this policy

Using the services constitutes full acceptance of this Privacy Policy. The current version posted on the websites prevails over earlier versions. This document may be updated to reflect changes in law, technology, or our practices. If material changes are made, we will provide notice in a reasonable manner. Continued use after an update means you accept the revised policy.

Sharing information with third parties

Personal information may be shared in accordance with law, to resolve disputes, and to perform agreements. Typical recipients include payment processors, banks, identity verification and anti-money laundering providers, fraud prevention tools, customer support vendors, cloud hosting, analytics partners, and regulators or law enforcement when required.

We maintain information about key service providers on the site or will inform you of the purpose and scope of sharing before or at the time of collection. Providing data for a given feature signals consent to that sharing. All third parties must protect confidentiality, use data only for defined purposes, and meet security standards. Pinco remains responsible for processing carried out on its behalf.
