Privacy Policy (Greece)
This Privacy Policy details how doghousemegawaysdemo.com.gr collects, processes, stores and safeguards your personal data. We operate this online gambling platform specifically for users in Greece. We comply fully with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), Greek national laws including those enforced by the Hellenic Gaming Commission (HGC), and oversight from the Hellenic Data Protection Authority (HDPA). The policy outlines our practices so you understand exactly how we handle your information while you access slots, demos and related features on our site.
Data Controller and Contact
doghousemegawaysdemo.com.gr serves as the data controller responsible for your personal data. Contact our dedicated privacy team at [email protected] for any questions, requests or concerns. We respond to inquiries promptly. For rights exercises or complaints, we often require identity verification through secure methods such as document upload or account-linked confirmation to confirm you are the data subject and prevent unauthorized actions.
Who This Policy Applies To
This policy applies to all visitors who browse our website, individuals who register accounts and registered customers who play games in Greece. Our services target adults exclusively. Greek law sets the legal age for online gambling at 21 years. We do not knowingly collect, process or store personal data from anyone under 21. We implement strict age verification during registration and ongoing monitoring. If we identify data belonging to a minor, we delete it without delay and block further access.
What Personal Data We Collect
We collect targeted categories of personal data necessary for secure and compliant operations. During registration and account management we gather full name, date of birth, email address, residential address and phone number. For identity and compliance verification we process government-issued ID documents, proof of address and selfies or live checks. Responsible gaming features require data on self-exclusion requests, deposit limits, session time alerts and behavioral indicators. Transaction records include account activity timestamps, game plays and balances without detailing specific payment methods here. Device and usage data covers IP address, browser type, operating system, device identifiers, login times and navigation patterns. We use cookies, pixels and similar technologies for functionality and analytics. Customer support interactions log chat transcripts, emails and call notes when you contact us.
Why We Use Personal Data
We process personal data for clear operational purposes. We set up and maintain your player account so you can log in and play. We deliver the gaming services including slot demos and full games. We verify age, identity and eligibility under Greek gambling rules to prevent underage or restricted access. We handle customer support queries and resolve issues efficiently. We detect and prevent fraud, money laundering and unauthorized use through monitoring. We fulfill legal obligations such as HGC reporting, AML checks and tax requirements. We enforce responsible gaming tools like limits, timeouts and self-exclusion to protect vulnerable players. We analyze aggregated usage to enhance platform performance and fix errors. We send promotional offers or newsletters only when you give explicit consent and Greek regulations permit it.
Legal Bases Under GDPR
GDPR requires a lawful basis for every processing activity. We rely on performance of contract to create accounts, process gameplay and provide services you request. Legal obligation justifies AML verification, regulatory reporting to HGC, retention of certain records and responsible gaming interventions mandated by law. Legitimate interests allow fraud prevention, security enhancements, service optimization and basic analytics when your rights do not override our needs after careful balancing. Consent grounds non-essential cookies, tracking for personalized ads and direct marketing emails. Vital interests apply in exceptional cases to protect your life or health, such as urgent responsible gaming escalations.
Cookies and Similar Technologies
We deploy cookies and tracking technologies on our site. Essential cookies handle login sessions, game functionality and security features; these operate without consent. Non-essential cookies support analytics on user behavior, performance measurement and targeted promotions. EU and Greek rules mandate your prior consent for non-essential cookies. Our cookie banner lets you accept, reject or customize preferences. You can revisit and modify choices or withdraw consent anytime through the settings link in the footer. Withdrawal does not affect prior lawful processing.
Sharing Personal Data
We share data selectively with processors under strict agreements. Hosting providers store site data securely. Analytics tools measure traffic and improve user experience. Customer support platforms manage inquiries. Verification services confirm identity and age. Security firms detect threats and fraud. Payment processors receive minimal data only for transaction completion when applicable. Professional advisers such as legal counsel review information for compliance. Affiliated companies access data for unified operations if part of the same group. We transfer data to public authorities, HGC, HDPA or law enforcement solely when Greek or EU law compels disclosure. We never sell, rent or trade your personal data to third parties for their independent use.
International Transfers
Certain processors and service providers sit outside the European Economic Area. We execute GDPR-approved safeguards before any transfer. Standard Contractual Clauses bind recipients to equivalent protection levels. Supplementary measures include encryption, pseudonymization and regular audits where risks exist. For details on specific transfers or copies of safeguards, email our privacy team at [email protected].
Data Retention
We retain personal data only for the minimum time required. Account and identity data stay active during your relationship with us plus a period to handle disputes or audits. AML and transaction records remain for at least five years after account closure per Greek and EU anti-money laundering rules. Responsible gaming logs persist as long as needed for player protection and regulatory checks. Inactive accounts trigger review after defined inactivity thresholds; we delete or anonymize data once purposes expire and no legal hold applies. Shorter periods apply to non-essential marketing data tied to withdrawn consent.
Your Rights Under GDPR
You exercise these GDPR rights over your data:
- Right to access confirming whether we process your data and obtaining copies
- Right to rectification updating inaccurate or incomplete details
- Right to erasure deleting data when no longer needed or processing unlawful
- Right to restriction limiting processing during disputes or objections
- Right to object stopping processing based on legitimate interests or marketing

Email requests to [email protected]. We verify identity through secure means before responding, usually within one month.
Complaints in Greece
Contact us first at [email protected] if you believe we mishandled your data. We investigate and resolve issues directly whenever possible. You retain the right to file a formal complaint with the Hellenic Data Protection Authority (HDPA) at any time for independent review.
Security Measures
We implement robust technical and organizational protections. Role-based access controls limit employee visibility to need-to-know data. Encryption secures data in transit across HTTPS. We monitor systems continuously for anomalies and maintain incident response protocols to address breaches swiftly. Regular security assessments and staff training strengthen defenses. Despite these efforts no internet-based system guarantees complete invulnerability.
Automated Decisions and Profiling
Automated tools analyze patterns for fraud detection, account security and responsible gaming triggers. Examples include flagging unusual login locations or excessive play sessions. These systems can restrict access or prompt interventions automatically. When decisions carry legal effects or significantly impact you, GDPR grants the right to human review, explanation and challenge. Request this through our privacy email.

We revise this policy to match evolving practices, technology or legal demands. The updated version appears here with a revised Last updated date. Significant changes trigger direct notifications via email or prominent site banners so you review them. Continued use after changes signals acceptance. Check back periodically for the latest information.
