Privacy Policy — rfacdn.nz
This policy describes how rfacdn.nz handles personal information under the New Zealand Privacy Act 2020 and the thirteen Information Privacy Principles (IPPs) issued by the Office of the Privacy Commissioner. We have written it in plain English on purpose — there is no clever drafting here, because there is not much for clever drafting to hide.
Last updated: 18 June 2026. Effective date: 18 June 2026.
1. Who we are
rfacdn.nz is an independent New Zealand-focused editorial publication covering fast payout online casinos serving Kiwi players. The site is operated by a small editorial team based in Aotearoa New Zealand. We are not an operator, we are not a marketing agency, and we are not affiliated with the Department of Internal Affairs or any New Zealand statutory operator. More about the team and our methodology lives on the About page.
For privacy-related questions, the correct address is [email protected]. For editorial questions, see the Contact page.
2. What we collect
rfacdn.nz is built as a fully static website. There is no user account, no login form, no comment box, no newsletter signup, and no embedded form of any kind. As a result, the categories of personal information we collect from visitors in the ordinary course of operating this site are extremely narrow.
The only personal information we knowingly receive from a reader is the information that reader voluntarily sends us by email. If you contact us at [email protected], [email protected], or any other rfacdn.nz address, we receive whatever you put into that email — typically your name (or chosen pseudonym), your email address, and the content of your message. We use that information solely to reply to you, and we retain it only as long as we need it to manage the correspondence.
If, in future, we add server-side analytics, error logging, a contact form, a newsletter, or any other feature that collects information about visitors, this section will be updated to disclose what is collected, why, where it is processed, and how long it is kept — before that feature goes live.
3. What we don't collect
It is worth being explicit. As a static editorial website, rfacdn.nz does not require, and we do not knowingly collect, any of the following from visitors who simply read our pages:
- No account signup, no username, no password — there is nothing on this site to log into.
- No payment information of any kind — we do not take deposits, we do not process money, and we do not handle cards, e-wallets, bank details, or crypto wallet addresses.
- No identity documents — we do not perform KYC, and we will never ask you to upload a passport, driver licence, utility bill, or selfie. If someone claiming to be us ever does, it is not us.
- No behavioural tracking pixels, no advertising IDs, no cross-site tracking — the current static build does not run advertising networks, social-media remarketing tags, or behavioural ad cookies.
- No newsletter list — we do not collect email addresses for marketing purposes.
One nuance is worth flagging. When you click an outbound link from rfacdn.nz to a casino operator, the affiliate network behind that link may attach a click identifier and pass it to the destination site so that any future commission can be attributed correctly. That handshake happens between the affiliate network and the destination operator. No personally identifying information about you flows through us as part of it. We see aggregate, anonymised click counts at most — never individual reader identities.
5. Third-party links
rfacdn.nz contains outbound links — many of them affiliate links — to third-party casino operators, payment providers, regulators, harm-minimisation services, and reference sources. When you click one of these links you leave rfacdn.nz and land on a website operated by someone else. From that moment on, the destination site's own privacy policy applies, not ours. Their data collection practices, cookie usage, advertising integrations, and information sharing arrangements are entirely outside our control.
We do not endorse, and we cannot vouch for, the privacy practices of any third-party site we link to. Before you provide personal information, identity documents, or payment details to any casino operator — whether you reached them via rfacdn.nz or any other source — we strongly recommend you read their privacy policy and their terms of use carefully.
If an outbound link from our site takes you somewhere you believe is unsafe, scammy, or breaching New Zealand law, please email [email protected] with the URL. We investigate and, where appropriate, remove or replace the link.
6. Your rights under the Privacy Act 2020
The New Zealand Privacy Act 2020 gives you specific rights in relation to personal information that an organisation holds about you. In the context of this static site the practical scope of those rights is narrow — because, as set out above, we hold very little about ordinary visitors — but the rights themselves still exist and we honour them.
In particular, you have the right to:
- Access — ask whether we hold personal information about you, and request a copy of it (IPP 6).
- Correction — ask us to correct information you believe is wrong (IPP 7).
- Complain — if you believe we have mishandled your personal information, you can complain directly to us, and you can also lodge a complaint with the Office of the Privacy Commissioner (OPC) at privacy.org.nz or by phoning the OPC's enquiries line.
To exercise any of these rights, email [email protected]. We will respond within 20 working days, which is the timeframe the Privacy Act 2020 specifies. We may ask you to verify your identity before releasing information so that we do not accidentally disclose your data to someone else.
7. Children
rfacdn.nz is an 18+ site. Our content concerns gambling at offshore online casinos and is not intended for, and is not directed to, anyone under the age of eighteen. We do not knowingly accept correspondence from minors, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from minors.
If you are a parent or caregiver and you believe a child has sent us personal information through our editorial email addresses, please contact [email protected] and we will delete it.
8. Data security
The personal information we do receive — primarily, emails you send to us — is held inside the mailbox systems of our email provider, behind standard provider-level access controls, two-factor authentication for editorial accounts, and at-rest encryption. We do not share editorial inbox contents with third parties for marketing purposes, and we do not sell personal information.
No transmission of information over the internet is ever entirely free of risk. We take reasonable steps to protect personal information against loss, unauthorised access, modification, and disclosure, as required by IPP 5 of the Privacy Act 2020, and we keep our security posture under ongoing review.
9. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time — for example, when New Zealand privacy law changes, when our internal practices change, or when we add new technical features such as analytics, a contact form, or a newsletter. The version date at the top of the page will always reflect the most recent revision.
Material changes will be flagged on the homepage of rfacdn.nz for a reasonable period after publication so that returning readers can see them. Continued use of the site after a revision goes live constitutes acknowledgement of the updated policy.
10. Contact
Privacy-specific questions, requests, or complaints should go to [email protected]. General editorial questions live on the Contact page.
