Legal Basis for Processing
Your personal information is processed under one or more legal grounds, including your explicit consent, the necessity of processing for the performance of contractual obligations, compliance with statutory or regulatory duties, or the legitimate interests pursued by Lightning Link Casino, provided such interests do not override your fundamental rights and freedoms.
Sharing of Personal Information
Lightning Link Casino may disclose your personal information to third parties under specific circumstances: with regulatory and law enforcement agencies to fulfill legal obligations; with payment service providers and financial institutions involved in transaction processing; with affiliated companies and service providers engaged to support business operations, subject to strict confidentiality agreements; or in the event of a business transfer, merger, or acquisition, where your data may be transferred as part of the transaction.
