Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how your personal data is collected, used, stored, shared and protected when you access or use the online casino services offered through skycrown.games (the "Website") and any related interfaces, including as a registered player or as a website visitor. It applies to all individuals who visit the Website, create an account, participate in games, interact with customer support, or otherwise communicate with us.
Because skycrown operates online and accepts players from multiple jurisdictions, including Australia, we process personal data in accordance with applicable data protection principles and industry standards for remote gambling operators. This Privacy Policy is effective as of 06 November 2025 and remains in force until updated or replaced in accordance with the "Updates" section below.
By using the Website, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy and that your personal data will be processed as described here, subject to your rights and choices set out below.
Who We Are
The online casino service provided through skycrown.games (collectively referred to as "skycrown", "we", "us", or "our") is operated and managed by the following entities:
- Operator: Hollycorn N.V., a company established and registered under the laws of Curaçao, registration number 144359, with its registered and principal business address at Scharlooweg 39, Willemstad, Curaçao. Hollycorn N.V. holds an online gaming sublicense under license number 8048/JAZ2019-015, issued by Antillephone N.V.
- Payment agents:
- Libergos Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hollycorn N.V., registered in Cyprus under registration number HE 401569, with its office at Boumpoulinas, 1-3, BOUBOULINA BUILDING, Flat/Office 42, 1060, Nicosia, Cyprus.
- Friolion Limited, a company registered in Cyprus which acts as an additional payment agent. A registered address in Cyprus exists but is not specified in this Privacy Policy; it may be provided on request where legally required.
For the purposes of data protection laws, Hollycorn N.V. is generally the "data controller" responsible for deciding how and why your personal data is processed. The payment agents listed above may act as processors or joint controllers for payment-related processing.
Data protection contact / DPO: If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy or our handling of your personal data, you may contact our data protection contact (or data protection officer, where appointed) using the following channels:
- Email: support@skycrown.games (please indicate "Privacy request" or "Data protection" in the subject line)
- Postal address: Data Protection Contact, Hollycorn N.V., Scharlooweg 39, Willemstad, Curaçao
- Online support: via the live chat facility available within your player account interface on skycrown.games
Players located in Australia should note that skycrown is operated under an offshore license issued in Curaçao. This means that Australian consumer law and Australian gambling regulators (including the Australian Communications and Media Authority) generally do not supervise or regulate our operations, and your primary relationship is with the entities listed above.

Where such data is processed, it is handled with enhanced safeguards and only for the limited purposes described by you or required by law.
Legal Basis for Processing
Because skycrown accepts players from multiple jurisdictions, we rely on several legal grounds for processing personal data. Depending on your location and the context of processing, our legal bases may include:
Performance of a contract
- Account set-up and management: We process identification, contact, technical and transactional data to create and maintain your player account, verify your eligibility to use our services, and provide access to games and account features.
- Provision of services: We use your data to process deposits and withdrawals (through our payment agents Libergos Limited and Friolion Limited), to settle bets, credit winnings, manage bonuses and loyalty rewards, and provide customer support related to your account.
- Contract enforcement: We process data as necessary to enforce our Terms and Conditions, bonus rules and any other contract you enter into with us, including in connection with debt recovery or breach investigations.
Compliance with legal obligations
- KYC and AML requirements: We are required under applicable laws and our Curaçao license conditions to verify your identity, assess risk, and monitor transactions to prevent money laundering, financing of terrorism, fraud and other unlawful activities.
- Record-keeping and reporting: We maintain certain records for prescribed periods to comply with tax, corporate, accounting, anti-fraud and other legal obligations, and we may report suspicious activities to competent authorities.
- Responsible gambling and age verification: We process data to confirm that you are of legal age to gamble and to implement measures designed to protect vulnerable players, in line with relevant regulatory standards and best practices.
Legitimate interests
- Service improvement and analytics: We analyze aggregated and pseudonymized usage data to improve the performance, functionality and user experience of skycrown.games, including troubleshooting, testing and statistical analysis.
- Security and fraud prevention: We process technical and behavioral data to detect, investigate and prevent fraud, abuse of bonuses, collusion, unauthorized access, spam and other security incidents that could harm our players, systems or partners.
- Business operations: We may process limited data for internal administrative purposes, including reporting, audits, risk management and corporate governance, balancing these interests against your privacy rights.
Consent
- Marketing communications: Where required by law, we rely on your consent to send you promotional emails, newsletters or targeted offers. You can withdraw your consent at any time by using the unsubscribe link or contacting us.
- Cookies and similar technologies: For non-essential cookies (e.g., advertising or certain analytics cookies), we rely on your consent where this is required, which you can manage through your browser or internal settings where available.
- Special categories of data: If we need to process sensitive data (for example in the context of responsible gambling measures) beyond what is strictly required by law, we may ask for your explicit consent or rely on another appropriate legal ground permitted by applicable law.
Where data protection laws such as the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) or relevant Mexican data protection regulations apply, we ensure that our processing aligns with the principles of lawfulness, fairness, transparency, purpose limitation, data minimisation, accuracy, storage limitation, integrity and confidentiality.
Purpose of Processing
We use your personal data for the following purposes, to the extent permitted by applicable laws:
- Providing and operating casino services: to register and manage your account, process deposits and withdrawals, enable participation in games, tournaments and promotions, calculate and pay out winnings, and provide technical and customer support.
- Account administration and communication: to send service messages (such as transaction confirmations, security alerts, legal notices), respond to your queries and complaints, and manage your preferences and settings.
- Compliance and risk management: to carry out identity verification, age checks, KYC and AML monitoring, responsible gambling assessments, regulatory reporting, and other measures needed to comply with legal and licensing obligations.
- Service improvement and analytics: to monitor performance, diagnose technical issues, optimize user journeys, and conduct statistical and market analysis to improve the functionality, stability and content of skycrown.games.
- Marketing and personalisation: to provide you, where permitted, with tailored offers, bonuses and recommendations based on your preferences and gaming history, and to measure the effectiveness of campaigns (subject to your consent where required).
- Fraud detection and security: to prevent, detect and investigate fraudulent activities, abuse of our services or bonuses, security breaches, and any other unlawful or suspicious behavior.
- Business continuity: to support corporate transactions, internal audits, mergers, restructuring or transfer of business, where data may need to be reviewed or transferred under appropriate safeguards.
Disclosure & Sharing
We do not sell your personal data. However, we may share your data with carefully selected third parties for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, subject to confidentiality and data protection safeguards:
- Group companies and payment agents: Hollycorn N.V., Libergos Limited, Friolion Limited and other related entities involved in the operation of skycrown.games, especially for payment processing, customer support and compliance operations.
- Payment service providers: banks, card schemes, e-wallet providers, payment gateways and other financial institutions that process deposits, withdrawals and chargebacks on our behalf.
- Service providers and technical partners: third parties that provide hosting, data storage, security services, analytics tools, communication platforms, identity verification services, anti-fraud solutions, customer support tools and similar services.
- Game providers: licensed game studios and platform providers whose games you access via skycrown.games, to the extent necessary to deliver the games, manage jackpots, and ensure compliance and fairness.
- Affiliates and marketing partners: subject to your consent where required, we may share limited data (often pseudonymised or aggregated) with affiliate networks, advertising networks and marketing agencies to measure and optimize marketing campaigns.
- Regulators and public authorities: supervisory authorities, law enforcement agencies, courts, and other public bodies in Curaçao, the European Union, Australia, Mexico or other relevant jurisdictions where we are legally required or allowed to disclose data (for example, for AML reporting or court proceedings).
- Professional advisers: lawyers, auditors, accountants and consultants who require access to certain data to provide professional services to us, subject to confidentiality obligations.
- Corporate transactions: potential or actual buyers, investors, or successors in the event of a merger, acquisition, restructuring, or sale of assets, provided that any such party is bound by appropriate obligations to protect your data.
Where we share personal data with third parties, we do so on a need-to-know basis and, where required, on the basis of written agreements that impose data protection and confidentiality obligations consistent with this Privacy Policy and applicable laws.
International Transfers
skycrown operates internationally. As a result, your personal data may be transferred to and processed in countries outside your country of residence, including:
- Curaçao: where Hollycorn N.V. is established and where core operational and compliance functions are carried out.
- Cyprus: where Libergos Limited and Friolion Limited act as payment agents and provide additional operational support.
- European Economic Area (EEA) and other European countries: where certain game providers, service providers or support teams may be located.
- Other countries (such as the United States or other technology hub jurisdictions): where some of our third-party service providers (e.g., hosting, analytics, communication platforms) may process data.
- Australia and other player locations: to the extent data is routed through or accessed from your local jurisdiction when you use our services.
Some of these countries may not offer the same level of data protection as your home jurisdiction. Where required by law (for example, under the GDPR), we implement appropriate safeguards to protect your personal data when it is transferred internationally. These safeguards may include:
- Standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission or other competent authorities;
- Contractual arrangements imposing equivalent data protection and security obligations on recipients;
- Technical measures such as pseudonymisation and encryption;
- Limiting access to personal data on a strict need-to-know basis.
By using skycrown.games, you acknowledge that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, your data may be transferred and processed in these jurisdictions. Where your explicit consent is required for certain transfers, we will seek it separately.
Data Retention
We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, to comply with legal and regulatory requirements, to resolve disputes, and to enforce our agreements. Retention periods may vary depending on the type of data and the laws applicable to us. In general:
- Account and identification data: kept for the duration of your account and thereafter typically for up to 5 years following account closure or your last transaction, in order to comply with KYC, AML, tax and regulatory record-keeping obligations, or longer where required by law.
- Transactional and payment data: retained for at least 5-7 years after the relevant transaction to satisfy accounting, tax and AML requirements, and to manage disputes or chargebacks.
- Technical and usage data: stored for shorter periods, usually ranging from a few months up to 2 years, unless aggregated or anonymised for long-term statistical purposes.
- Marketing and communication data: retained for as long as you remain subscribed to marketing communications and for a short period after you opt out (to ensure that your preferences are respected), generally no longer than 2 years after the last marketing interaction.
- Responsible gambling and complaint data: kept for as long as necessary to manage responsible gambling measures, investigate and resolve complaints or disputes, and as required by applicable law, generally up to 5 years after closure of the case.
When personal data is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, and there is no legal obligation or legitimate interest requiring further retention, we will securely delete, anonymise or aggregate it so that it can no longer be linked to you.
You may request further information about specific retention periods by contacting us using the details provided in the "Complaints & Contacts" section.
Your Rights
Subject to applicable law (including, where relevant, the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), Mexican data protection regulations, and other regional privacy laws), you may have the following rights in relation to your personal data:
- Right of access: to obtain confirmation as to whether we process your personal data and, if so, to receive a copy of the data and certain related information (for example, purposes of processing, categories of data, recipients, retention periods).
- Right to rectification: to request correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal data. You may also be able to update certain information directly within your account settings.
- Right to erasure ("right to be forgotten"): to ask us to delete your personal data where it is no longer needed for the purposes for which it was collected, where you have withdrawn consent (where consent was the legal basis), or where processing is unlawful. We may need to retain certain data where required by law (for example, AML record-keeping obligations).
- Right to restriction of processing: to request that we limit the processing of your data in certain circumstances, for example while we verify its accuracy or assess an objection you have raised.
- Right to object: to object at any time, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to processing based on our legitimate interests, including profiling. You also have the right to object to direct marketing at any time, in which case we will stop processing your data for that purpose.
- Right to data portability: to receive certain personal data in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format and to request that we transmit it to another controller where technically feasible, when the processing is based on consent or the performance of a contract and carried out by automated means.
- Right to withdraw consent: where we rely on your consent (for example, for marketing or certain cookies), you may withdraw that consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.
- Rights under Mexican regulations: where Mexican data protection laws apply (including the Federal Law on Protection of Personal Data Held by Private Parties and its regulations), you may exercise similar rights of access, rectification, cancellation and opposition (sometimes known as ARCO rights), as well as the right to limit or revoke consent for certain processing.
How to exercise your rights
- Submission: You can submit a request by emailing support@skycrown.games (with "Data protection request" in the subject line) or via the live chat facility, clearly indicating the right you wish to exercise and providing sufficient information to identify your account.
- Verification: For your security, we may request additional information to verify your identity before acting on a request, especially where sensitive or financial data is involved.
- Response timeframe: We aim to respond to all valid requests within 30 days of receipt. Where the request is complex or we receive multiple requests, this period may be extended as permitted by law, in which case we will inform you of the extension and reasons.
- Fees: Requests are handled free of charge, unless they are manifestly unfounded or excessive (for example, repetitive requests), in which case we may charge a reasonable fee or refuse to act, as allowed by applicable law.
The availability and exact scope of the rights described above may vary depending on your jurisdiction and the specific legal regime that applies to our processing of your data. If you believe that your rights have not been respected, you also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, as described in the "Complaints & Contacts" section.
