FatPirate Privacy Policy
This independent review explains how FatPirate Casino collects, stores and protects the personal data of Hungarian players. Because the operator works from an offshore jurisdiction, understanding its data practices matters before you register an account or upload any verification documents.

Introduction and Data Controller
A privacy policy on an offshore casino tells you who holds your documents, how long they keep them, and who you can complain to if something goes wrong. FatPirate is operated by Luxerino Ltd under Costa Rican jurisdiction, launched in 2024 according to GMBLRS; one FatPirate Hub report also names Invicta Tech Limited as an operator entity.
Costa Rica (no gaming licence) is the only registration the review could verify — there is no recognised gambling regulator behind the brand, and no SZTFH licence for Hungarian players. That matters for data protection, because an offshore operator is not supervised by an EU data protection framework the way a locally licensed casino would be. The operator states that it processes data in line with GDPR principles, but enforcement of that commitment from a Costa Rican registration is limited in practice.
For the full contractual picture beyond privacy, the operator’s conditions are summarised here: FatPirate terms and conditions.
What Data Does FatPirate Collect?
FatPirate collects three broad categories of data: identity details you enter at registration, payment data tied to deposits and withdrawals, and technical data generated automatically while you browse. Together these cover everything needed to run an account, process payments and meet the operator’s internal verification rules.
Registration data
When you open an account, the operator records your name, date of birth (minimum age is 18), email address, country of residence and login credentials. Before any withdrawal, KYC verification is mandatory, which adds: Érvényes fényképes igazolvány, Lakcímigazolás, and proof of ownership of the payment method used.
Financial information
Every deposit and withdrawal leaves a record. Hungarian players can deposit with Visa, Mastercard and Banki átutalás, plus a wide crypto selection as a secondary option: USDT (TRC20, ERC20, BEP20), Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, Ripple, USD Coin, Bitcoin Cash, Dogecoin and Cardano. The operator stores transaction amounts, timestamps, currency and method — card numbers themselves are handled by the payment processor rather than the casino.
Technical and usage data
Like most online casinos, FatPirate logs IP addresses, browser type, device identifiers, session length and pages visited. Gameplay history — which titles from providers like Pragmatic Play, NetEnt or Evolution you played, and for how long — is also stored, partly for responsible-gambling monitoring.
Cookies and tracking technologies
The site uses cookies for login sessions, preferences and analytics. Details on each type appear in the dedicated cookies section below.
Purpose and Legal Basis of Data Collection
The operator ties each category of processing to a specific legal basis: contract performance, legal obligation, legitimate interest, or consent. Knowing which basis applies matters, because consent-based processing can be withdrawn at any time.
- Contract performance: creating and running your account, processing deposits and withdrawals, crediting bonuses such as the welcome offer (100%/150.000 Ft + 200 Ingyenes Pörgetés, minimum deposit €10, x35 wagering on deposit plus bonus).
- Legal obligations: anti-money-laundering checks, the mandatory x1 deposit turnover before withdrawal (a 10% fee applies otherwise), and age verification.
- Legitimate interest: fraud prevention, account security, internal analytics and service improvement.
- Consent: marketing emails, promotional notifications and non-essential cookies — all revocable in your account settings or via the unsubscribe link.
Data Storage and Security
FatPirate states that it applies encryption and access controls to protect stored data, but as an offshore operator it publishes no independent security audit. Players should treat retention and third-party sharing clauses with appropriate caution.
Retention periods
Account and transaction data is kept for the life of the account and for a period afterwards to satisfy the operator’s internal compliance and AML obligations. Exact retention windows are not publicly specified, which is typical for Costa Rica-registered casinos.
Security measures
The site runs over encrypted connections, and payment data passes through third-party processors. The operator documents internal access restrictions so that only authorised staff can view verification documents.
Third-party sharing
Data is shared with payment processors (for Visa, Mastercard, Banki átutalás and crypto transactions), game providers such as Hacksaw Gaming, Spinomenal, Yggdrasil, Amusnet, Red Tiger, Playtech, Microgaming, Relax Gaming, Playson, Betsoft, Pragmatic Play Live, Playtech Live, Spribe, Amatic, Oryx Gaming, Gamomat, EGT, Onlyplay and Rival Gaming (for game delivery), and KYC/AML service providers for identity checks.
International transfers
Because the operator is registered in Costa Rica, your data is transferred outside the EU/EEA. The operator cites standard safeguards for such transfers, but without an EU-facing licence, Hungarian players have fewer practical remedies if a dispute arises.
Your Rights as a User
Even as an offshore player, you can request access, correction or deletion of your personal data from FatPirate, and you can object to marketing at any time. Requests go through customer support or the privacy contact listed on the operator’s website.
- Right of access: request a copy of the personal data the operator holds about you.
- Rectification and erasure: correct inaccurate details or ask for deletion once the account is closed and legal retention duties expire.
- Data portability: ask for your data in a structured, machine-readable format.
- Right to object: opt out of marketing communications and consent-based processing.
- Complaint to an authority: Hungarian residents can escalate unresolved complaints to the NAIH (Nemzeti Adatvédelmi és Információszabadsági Hatóság), though its leverage over a Costa Rican entity is limited.
Players who want limits on their data exposure can also reduce tracking and set play restrictions — the available tools are described here: FatPirate responsible gambling.
