Privacy Policy

Administrator and Contact

Brighthavenstudio Limited is responsible for this website. The registered contact address used for this website is 64 Wellesley Street West, Auckland CBD, Auckland 1010, New Zealand. You can contact us at info@brighthavenstudio.com.

Brighthavenstudio is an independent informational casino-hotel review website. We do not operate casino games, process bookings, or provide gambling services.

Scope of This Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how we handle personal information when visitors use our website, read casino-hotel review content, contact our editorial team, or interact with basic site functions. Although Brighthavenstudio is New Zealand-focused, we structure this notice with GDPR-style transparency principles for visitors who may access the website from different jurisdictions.

Information We May Collect

We may collect information that you choose to provide through the contact form, including your name, email address, subject, and message. We may also process limited technical information such as browser type, device type, approximate access time, page interaction, and security logs required to maintain a functional and secure website.

We do not request gambling account information, payment information, identity verification documents, or booking information through this website.

Purposes of Processing

We process personal information to respond to enquiries, maintain website security, improve editorial usability, prevent misuse, correct technical issues, and document compliance with website obligations. Where we publish casino-hotel review content, the processing is limited to operating an informational website and communicating with visitors.

Legal Bases

Depending on the context, we rely on consent, legitimate interests, performance of a requested communication, and legal compliance. Legitimate interests may include maintaining site security, improving accessibility, preventing spam, and responding to relevant editorial enquiries.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

Our website may use essential cookies or local browser storage where required for basic functionality, security, or visitor preferences. We do not use cookies to operate gambling services. More details are provided in our Cookie Policy.

Sharing of Information

We do not sell personal information. Limited information may be shared with technical service providers that support hosting, security, maintenance, or communication handling, only where necessary and subject to appropriate safeguards. We may disclose information if required by law or to protect the website from misuse.

International Access and Transfers

Because the website may be accessed internationally, technical processing may involve infrastructure outside New Zealand. Where GDPR-style protections apply, we aim to use appropriate safeguards, such as contractual controls and data minimisation.

Retention

Contact form messages are retained only for as long as reasonably necessary to handle the enquiry, maintain records, resolve disputes, or comply with applicable obligations. Technical logs are retained for a limited period appropriate to security and maintenance needs.

Your Rights

Depending on applicable law, you may request access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection, portability, or withdrawal of consent. To exercise rights, contact us at info@brighthavenstudio.com. We may need to verify the request before acting on it.

Children and 20+ Casino-Area Notice

This website is intended for informational use by adults. Casino gaming areas in New Zealand are restricted to adults aged 20 and over. Our content is not directed to children or to underage visitors seeking casino access.

Security

We use reasonable organisational and technical measures to protect information from unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, or loss. No website can guarantee absolute security, so visitors should avoid sending sensitive information through general contact forms.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy when our website, legal obligations, or processing practices change. The latest version will be published on this page.
