Right to Modify Terms

The operator reserves the right to amend, update, or replace any portion of these terms and conditions at any time. Users will be notified of material changes through the platform or via registered email. Continued use of the platform following any such update constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.

Liability Limitations

The operator’s liability is limited to the extent permitted by applicable law. The platform is not responsible for losses resulting from user error, technical failures attributable to third-party providers, or circumstances beyond the operator’s reasonable control. Users accept that gambling involves financial risk and that no outcome is guaranteed.

All betting activity on the Instant Casino platform in Canada is subject to a standardised set of rules designed to maintain fairness, transparency, and regulatory compliance. Users are required to review these rules prior to placing any bet.

• Be located in a jurisdiction where the relevant betting activity is legally permitted;
• Not be subject to any account restriction or suspension imposed by the operator.

Bet Acceptance Procedures

Bets are accepted at the odds displayed at the time of confirmation. The operator reserves the right to refuse or limit any bet without providing a reason. A bet is considered confirmed only once the user receives an official confirmation from the platform. Bets placed on events that have already commenced may be voided at the operator’s discretion, depending on the applicable event rules.

Minimum and Maximum Betting Amounts

Minimum and maximum bet amounts vary by game type, event category, and user account status. Users are encouraged to review the specific limits applicable to each game or event before placing a bet. The operator may apply individual account limits based on betting history or risk assessment.

Calculation of Wins and Losses

Winnings are calculated based on the confirmed odds and stake at the time the bet is accepted. In cases of technical error or system malfunction affecting the display of odds or outcomes, the operator reserves the right to void affected bets and return stakes to users. Disputes regarding bet outcomes must be submitted through the official support channel within the timeframe specified in the platform’s dispute resolution policy.

Betting Restrictions

The operator may restrict betting activity in the following circumstances:

• Where unusual or suspicious betting patterns are detected;
• Where a user’s account is under review for compliance or verification purposes;
• Where applicable law or licensing conditions require such restrictions;
• Where a specific event or market is suspended pending official confirmation of results.

Cancellation Policy

Once a bet is confirmed, it cannot be cancelled or amended by the user unless the operator explicitly permits cancellation within a defined timeframe for specific bet types. Any applicable cancellation windows will be communicated at the time of placing the bet.

Instant Casino operates in accordance with applicable anti-money laundering (AML) legislation and takes all necessary measures to prevent the use of the platform for money laundering, terrorism financing, or any other illicit financial activity.

Legal Obligations

The platform adheres to AML and counter-terrorism financing (CTF) regulations applicable in the jurisdictions where it operates. These obligations require the operator to:

• Collect and verify the identity of all registered users prior to processing withdrawals or large transactions;
• Maintain accurate records of all financial transactions conducted on the platform;
• Report suspicious transactions to relevant regulatory and law enforcement authorities as required by law;
• Implement internal controls and policies designed to detect and prevent financial crime.

Know Your Customer (KYC) Procedures

As part of its AML compliance framework, the platform conducts KYC verification for all users. This process includes:

• Verification of full legal name, date of birth, and residential address;
• Collection of a valid government-issued identification document;
• Assessment of the source of funds where transaction volumes meet defined thresholds;
• Ongoing monitoring of account activity to identify changes in user behaviour.

Transaction Monitoring

All transactions processed on the platform are subject to automated and manual monitoring. The platform applies risk-based assessment criteria to identify:

• Unusually large or frequent deposits or withdrawals;
• Transactions structured to remain below reporting thresholds;
• Patterns inconsistent with a user's declared profile or typical account activity;
• Deposits followed immediately by withdrawal requests without meaningful gaming activity.

Consequences of Policy Violations

Users found to be in breach of AML policies or who fail to cooperate with verification requests may be subject to the following actions:

• Temporary or permanent account suspension;
• Freezing of funds pending investigation;
• Reporting of account activity to relevant regulatory or law enforcement bodies;
• Permanent closure of the account without prior notice in cases of confirmed violations.

Instant Casino collects and processes personal data in accordance with applicable Canadian privacy legislation, including the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) and relevant provincial privacy laws where applicable.

Personal Data Collected

The platform collects personal information necessary for account registration, identity verification, and the delivery of services. This includes:

• Full legal name, date of birth, and contact details;
• Residential address and proof of identity documents;
• Financial information related to deposits and withdrawals;
• Device identifiers, IP addresses, and browsing data collected through cookies and similar technologies;
• Communication records between the user and the support team.

How Personal Data Is Used

Collected data is used for the following purposes:

• Account creation, verification, and ongoing management;
• Processing of financial transactions and fraud prevention;
• Compliance with AML, KYC, and other legal obligations;
• Delivery of customer support services;
• Analysis of platform usage to improve service quality;
• Communication of account-related updates and legal notices.

Personal data is not sold to third parties. It may be shared with service providers, payment processors, and regulatory bodies strictly as required for operational and compliance purposes.

User Rights

Users have the following rights with respect to their personal data, subject to applicable law:

• The right to access personal data held by the platform;
• The right to request correction of inaccurate or incomplete information;
• The right to request deletion of personal data, where no legal obligation requires its retention;

• The right to lodge a complaint with the applicable privacy authority if a concern is not resolved.

Requests related to personal data may be submitted through the platform’s designated privacy contact channel. The operator will respond within the timeframe required by applicable law.

Instant Casino employs a comprehensive set of technical and organisational security measures to protect user accounts, personal data, and all financial transactions conducted on the platform.

Data Encryption

All data transmitted between users and the platform is protected using industry-standard Transport Layer Security (TLS) encryption. This ensures that sensitive information, including login credentials and payment details, is encrypted during transmission and cannot be intercepted by unauthorised parties.

Two-Factor Authentication

Users are encouraged to enable two-factor authentication (2FA) on their accounts. This feature adds a secondary verification step at login, requiring confirmation through a registered device or application in addition to the standard password. Enabling 2FA significantly reduces the risk of unauthorised account access.

Account Activity Monitoring

The platform operates continuous monitoring systems designed to detect and respond to suspicious account activity. These systems are configured to identify:

• Login attempts from unrecognised devices or geographic locations;
• Multiple failed authentication attempts;
• Unusual transaction patterns or rapid account changes;
• Indicators of automated or non-human access attempts.

When anomalous activity is detected, the platform may initiate additional verification steps, temporarily restrict account access, or contact the registered user directly.

Organisational Security Measures

Beyond technical controls, the platform maintains internal security policies that include:

• Restricted access to user data on a need-to-know basis among staff;
• Regular security assessments and vulnerability reviews;
• Staff training on data protection and security protocols;
• Incident response procedures for potential data breaches.

User Responsibilities

Users share responsibility for the security of their accounts. The following practices are recommended:

• Using a strong and unique password for the platform account;
• Not sharing login credentials with any other person;
• Logging out of the account after each session, particularly on shared or public devices;
• Contacting support immediately upon suspecting unauthorised account access.
