Combining Information. Please note that all of the information we collect about you may be combined, including to help us prolong our communications with you, provide online advertising based on your interests, and to develop rich online content on our Website. Your consent will be obtained where it is required.

3. Use of Information

Slot.Day may use your personal information to let you know about news, bonus programs or other things we think may be interested to you. If we will decide to use your personal information for direct marketing purposes, we will give you the opportunity to opt out of receiving any marketing material. We may share the personal information that you have given to us with associates and affiliates. We may also use your personal information for related purposes that you would reasonably expect. We take particular care with any sensitive information that we may have (if any).

We generally use information we collect about you in order to: fulfill your requests for information, including to send you electronic newsletters that you have requested; analyze the use of Website and information about visitors of our Website to understand and improve our Content and to produce or disclose anonymous or aggregated data and statistics that might help third parties develop their own products and service offerings; customize the content you see on the Website; prevent potentially prohibited or illegal activities otherwise in accordance with our Terms of Use, including restrictions of the use of software to remove, modify, disable, block or otherwise impair any advertising in connection with the Website; and for any other purposes disclosed to you at the time we collect your information or pursuant to your consent.

4. Data Subject Rights

Data subjects with a residentship in New Zealand have the following rights under the Act:

The right to access information – the right to both:
confirmation as to whether (or not) an agency holds information about that person; and
access to such personal information, where such personal information may be readily retrieved.

The right to correction of information – the right to request correction of information. The agency must, on request or of its own initiative, take steps that are reasonable in the circumstances to ensure (having regard to the purposes for which the information may lawfully be used), the information is accurate, up to date, and not misleading.

Object to direct marketing – while there is not a specific right to object to direct marketing under the 2020 Act, it is worth noting that the Unsolicited Electronic Messages Act 2007 (‘UEMA’) prohibits the sending of unsolicited electronic messages (such as SMS or e-mail) for direct marketing purposes. Additionally, under the Telecoms Code, telecommunication information may only be used for direct marketing if the individual has been advised that such authorisation may be withdrawn at any time (Rule 10 of the Telecoms Code).

Rights not included in the 2020 Act
There is no express right to object to processing in New Zealand. If the information had yet to be provided by the individual, then she/he may refuse to provide the relevant information (provided it is being collected directly), or otherwise complain of an interference to privacy to either the OPC or the agency itself.
Note that there is no broad right to data portability in New Zealand. For completeness, there is ‘number portability’ whereby local and mobile numbers may be transferred, which is regulated under different legislation outside the scope of this Guidance Note (the Telecommunications Act 2001).

Similarly, there is not a ‘right to be forgotten’ or ‘right to erasure’ in New Zealand. It is arguable that an individual may request their information to be corrected (as described above), and such a correction may constitute deletion of information, but this is not typically what is thought of when referring to a right to be forgotten. However, of note in this area is the Harmful Digital Communications Act 2015, which aims to deter, prevent, and mitigate harm to individuals caused by digital communications (often known as ‘cyber-bullying’), and provide victims with efficient means of redress. This can involve a court takedown order, requiring harmful digital communications to be removed.

Data subjects with a residentship in Canada have the following rights under the Privacy Act:

The right to access information – the right to both:
confirmation as to whether (or not) an agency holds information about that person; and
access to such personal information, where such personal information may be readily retrieved.

The right to correction of information – the right to request correction of information. The agency must, on request or of its own initiative, take steps that are reasonable in the circumstances to ensure (having regard to the purposes for which the information may lawfully be used), the information is accurate, up to date, and not misleading.

In addition to the access and correction rights you may be entitled to exercise the right to:

  • object to the processing of your personal data (for instance, where we base the processing on our legitimate interests and we will stop processing your data. Except for processing related to direct marketing, we may resume processing if we can show legitimate grounds that override your rights.
  • request the restriction of processing of your personal data (for instance, if the data is not accurate and needs to be updated). This can also be done for data where the purposes of processing no longer apply, but you still need the data and do not want us to erase it.
  • request erasure of your personal data (for instance, if it’s no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, if you have withdrawn consent or there is no other legal basis for processing, or if you have objected to the processing and our legitimate interests do not override your rights). Certain data may not be erased if we have a requirement to retain it for legal purposes.
  • request portability of your own personal data (the transfer of information you have provided to us, to another controller, in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format), if such a request is technically possible to complete.

To exercise these rights, please contact Us and we will respond to your request within 30 days, subject to any legal exceptions, and otherwise in accordance with the law.

You also have the right to file a complaint with the data protection authority in your country.

5. Disclosure of Information

Slot.Day is committed to maintaining your trust and we want you to understand when and with whom we may share information collected about you. We may share information collected about you as disclosed at the time of collection, as otherwise disclosed in this privacy policy, and in the following circumstances:

  • With your consent. Slot.Day may share your contact information with third party marketing partners. You acknowledge that when you disclose personal information on the Website and you allow your information to be shared with third parties that can contact you in a different ways. Sometimes Slot.Day may give you the option to receive further communications from one of our advertising partners. If you do choose to opt in by expressly providing consent to receive communications from that third party advertiser, your personal information will be managed by that third party’s own privacy policy.
  • Transfers. Slot.Day may share your information in connection with a transaction of the corporate rights, such as the sale of a Website, a merger, consolidation, asset sale, or in the event of bankruptcy.
  • Legal requirements. Slot.Day may disclose information about our users, including contact information, to respond to subpoenas, court orders, legal process, and other law enforcement measures, and to comply with other legal obligations. There may be circumstances where the law requires Slot.Day to disclose the information, or where disclosure is required for law enforcement purposes.
  • Protect our Website and users. We may disclose information to protect and defend the legal rights, interests, and safety of Website; to protect the safety and security of visitors of the Website and members of the public; and as otherwise disclosed in our Terms of Use.

Finally, we also may share aggregated or anonymized information with third parties, to help us develop content that, we hope, will be interesting to you or to help these third parties develop their service offerings.

6. Your Choices

You can choose to view content and features on the Website without providing us directly with any information about you; however, as described above, some information may be collected automatically. There may be times when we ask for personal information from you and you do not wish to provide it. You can opt out of receiving commercial email or text messages from a particular Website or other service by following the instructions contained in any such message or by contacting us directly.

7. Protection of Information

We are committed to protecting your information. We have adopted commercially reasonable technical, administrative, and physical procedures to help protect your information from loss, misuse, unauthorized access, and alteration. Please note that no data transmission or storage can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. We want you to feel confident using the Website but we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us.

8. Transfer of Data Internationally

Please be aware that information you provide to us or that we obtain as a result of your use of the Website may be collected in your country. The privacy and data protection laws in the country to which your information is transferred may not be equivalent to such laws in your country of residence. Your personal information may be subject to the laws of the country to which it is transferred and may be accessible without notice to you by the courts, law enforcement and national security authorities of that country. By using and visiting the Website or providing us with your information, you consent to the collection, international transfer, storage, and processing of your information.

9. Legal Basis

The key legislation in New Zealand in relation to data protection that we use is Privacy Act 2020 (‘the 2020 Act’). The 2020 Act empowers the Office of the Privacy Commissioner (‘OPC’) to issue codes of practice, which comprise part of the privacy law in New Zealand. The intention of these codes is to modify the operation of the act for specific types of information, or for certain industries. Separate to the 2020 Act, privacy principles can be found within New Zealand’s common law. The New Zealand courts have developed a tort of privacy (i.e. the right of one person to sue another for breach of privacy). The tort of privacy relates to the public disclosure of private facts, where such disclosure would be considered to be highly offensive to a reasonable person of ordinary sensibilities, balanced against the wider public interest (Bradley v. Wingnut Films Ltd [1993] 1 NZLR 415).

Also, according to Canadian legislation and specifically under both the Privacy Act (R.S.C., 1985, c. P-21) and the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) (S.C. 2000, c. 5, Assented to 2000-04-13), We collect personal information as defined by section 3 of the Privacy Act.
