Cookies and Tracking
Asino uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your experience, analyse website usage, and for marketing purposes. Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit our website.
- Essential Cookies: These are necessary for the website to function correctly, enabling core functionalities like secure login and transaction processing.
- Analytical/Performance Cookies: These allow us to recognise and count the number of visitors and see how visitors move around our website, helping us improve the way Asino works.
- Functionality Cookies: These are used to recognise you when you return to our website, allowing us to personalise our content for you and remember your preferences.

Data Retention
Asino retains your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. Typically, this means we will retain your data for the duration of your active account with Asino and for a period thereafter as required by our legal and regulatory obligations, such as anti-money laundering laws (which often mandate retention for five to seven years after account closure). When your data is no longer required, we will securely delete or anonymise it.
International Data Transfers
Asino operates globally, and your personal data may be transferred to, and stored at, a destination outside of your country of residence, including countries that may not offer the same level of data protection as your home jurisdiction. Where we transfer your data internationally, Asino implements appropriate safeguards to protect your data at an adequate level, such as relying on standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission or other legally recognised mechanisms. By using our Services, you consent to such transfers.
Children's Privacy
Asino's Services are not intended for individuals under the age of 18 (or the legal age for gambling in your jurisdiction, whichever is higher). We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If we become aware that we have inadvertently collected personal data from a child, we will take steps to delete that information as quickly as possible. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us immediately.
