This page contains our Privacy Policy and Terms of Use for luckyfernplay.com. Please read both documents carefully before using Lucky Fern Play.

Privacy Policy

Lucky Fern Play ("we", "us", or "our") operates luckyfernplay.com, a free social casino website for users in New Zealand. We respect your privacy and are committed to handling personal information in a transparent and lawful way, including in line with the Privacy Act 2020 (New Zealand) where it applies.

1. Who this policy applies to

This Privacy Policy applies to anyone who visits luckyfernplay.com, plays our embedded social casino games, or contacts us by email. It does not cover third-party websites or services that you may reach through links on our site — those providers have their own privacy policies.

2. Information we collect

We aim to collect only what we need to run and improve the website. Depending on how you use Lucky Fern Play, we may process:

  • Technical data: IP address (often in anonymised or aggregated form), browser type, operating system, device type, referring URL, and pages viewed.
  • Usage data: How you interact with the site — for example, time on page, scroll depth, or clicks — through analytics tools.
  • Contact data: If you email us, we receive your email address, name (if provided), and the content of your message.
  • Cookie data: Small text files stored on your device as described in the Cookies section below.

We do not require you to create an account to play our free social casino games, and we do not collect payment card or banking information because no real-money transactions take place on this site.

3. How we use your information

We use collected information to:

  • Operate, maintain, and secure luckyfernplay.com;
  • Understand how visitors use the site and improve content and layout;
  • Respond to enquiries and support requests;
  • Comply with legal obligations and protect our legitimate interests;
  • Detect and prevent fraud, abuse, or unauthorised access.

We do not sell your personal information to third parties for their marketing purposes.

4. Legal basis and NZ privacy rights

Where the Privacy Act 2020 applies, we process personal information for purposes that are connected to operating our website and communicating with you. You may have the right to:

  • Ask whether we hold personal information about you;
  • Request access to that information;
  • Request correction if information is inaccurate; and
  • Raise a complaint with us or with the Office of the Privacy Commissioner.

To exercise these rights, contact turan.h@antetechnologies.com. We will respond within a reasonable timeframe.

5. Cookies and similar technologies

Cookies are small files placed on your device when you visit a website. We may use:

  • Essential cookies — required for basic site functionality and security;
  • Analytics cookies — to measure traffic and usage patterns in aggregate;
  • Preference cookies — where applicable, to remember choices you make on the site.

You can block or delete cookies through your browser settings. Note that disabling certain cookies may affect how the site or embedded game performs.

6. Third-party services and game embed

Our featured game is loaded in an iframe from an external provider. When you play, that provider may collect its own technical and usage data under its separate privacy policy. We encourage you to review the game provider's policy if available.

We may also use third-party hosting, analytics, or content delivery services. Those partners process data on our behalf only as needed to deliver the service and are expected to protect it appropriately.

7. Data retention

We keep personal information only for as long as necessary for the purposes described in this policy. Contact emails are typically retained for up to 24 months unless a longer period is required for legal or dispute-resolution reasons. Analytics data is often stored in aggregated form with shorter retention for raw logs.

8. Security

We implement reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect information against unauthorised access, loss, or misuse. However, no method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

9. International users

Lucky Fern Play is intended primarily for visitors in New Zealand. If you access the site from outside New Zealand, you understand that your information may be processed in jurisdictions where privacy laws may differ from those in NZ.

10. Children

Our website is not directed at anyone under 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from minors. If you believe a person under 18 has provided us with data, please contact us and we will take steps to delete it.

11. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page will change when we do. Material changes may also be highlighted on the website. Continued use after an update means you accept the revised policy.

Terms of Use

These Terms of Use ("Terms") govern your access to and use of luckyfernplay.com and the services offered by Lucky Fern Play. By accessing or using the site, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, you must not use the website.

1. About our service

Lucky Fern Play is a social casino platform. Games are provided for entertainment using virtual credits only. Virtual credits and virtual winnings:

  • Have no cash value;
  • Cannot be deposited, purchased, sold, or withdrawn as real money;
  • Cannot be exchanged for goods, services, or prizes with monetary value.

Nothing on this site constitutes real-money gambling, betting, or gaming under the Gambling Act 2003 or similar legislation. We are not a casino operator offering lawful gambling products in New Zealand.

2. Eligibility

You may use Lucky Fern Play only if:

  • You are at least 18 years of age;
  • You have the legal capacity to enter into a binding agreement;
  • Your use of the site is permitted under the laws of your location; and
  • You are not barred from using similar services under applicable law.

By using the site, you represent and warrant that you meet these requirements. We may suspend or block access if we reasonably believe you do not meet them.

3. Licence to use the site

We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to access luckyfernplay.com for personal, non-commercial entertainment. You must not copy, modify, distribute, sell, or lease any part of the site or its content except as expressly allowed by these Terms or applicable law.

4. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

  • Use the site for any unlawful purpose or in violation of these Terms;
  • Attempt to gain unauthorised access to our systems, accounts, or networks;
  • Interfere with or disrupt the site, servers, or embedded games;
  • Use bots, scrapers, or automated tools to extract data or manipulate gameplay;
  • Impersonate another person or misrepresent your affiliation with any entity;
  • Upload malware, spam, or harmful code;
  • Circumvent age restrictions or encourage minors to use the site;
  • Use the site to promote real-money gambling services without our written consent.

We reserve the right to investigate violations and cooperate with law enforcement where appropriate.

5. Virtual items and gameplay

Game outcomes are determined by the embedded game provider's software. We do not guarantee any particular result, virtual balance, or uninterrupted availability. Virtual progress may be lost if the provider updates the game, if you clear browser data, or if the service is discontinued.

You have no property right in virtual credits, tokens, or similar in-game items. We may modify or discontinue games or features at any time without liability.

6. Intellectual property

The Lucky Fern Play name, logo, website design, text, graphics, and other materials are owned by us or our licensors and protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws. Third-party game content remains the property of its respective owners. Unauthorised use is prohibited.

7. Third-party links and embeds

The site may include links to external resources (for example, responsible gaming organisations) and embedded third-party games. We are not responsible for the content, policies, or practices of third parties. Your use of embedded games is also subject to any terms imposed by the game provider.

8. Disclaimer of warranties

The site and all content are provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the site will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of harmful components.

9. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by New Zealand law, Lucky Fern Play and its operators will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, data, or goodwill, arising from your use of the site.

Our total liability for any claim relating to the site shall not exceed NZD $100 (or the minimum amount permitted by law if greater). Nothing in these Terms excludes liability that cannot be excluded under the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 or other mandatory law.

10. Indemnity

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Lucky Fern Play and its affiliates from claims, damages, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your breach of these Terms or misuse of the site.

11. Responsible play

Even though no real money is involved, we encourage balanced use of social casino games. Take regular breaks, and seek help if play stops being enjoyable. New Zealand support: Gambling Helpline 0800 654 655.

12. Suspension and termination

We may suspend or terminate your access to the site at any time, with or without notice, if we believe you have violated these Terms or for operational, legal, or security reasons. Provisions that by their nature should survive termination will remain in effect.

13. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of New Zealand. You submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the New Zealand courts for disputes arising from or relating to these Terms or the site, subject to any mandatory consumer protections in your country of residence.

14. Changes to these Terms

We may revise these Terms at any time. The updated version will be posted on this page with a new "Last updated" date. Your continued use of luckyfernplay.com after changes take effect constitutes acceptance. If you do not agree to the new Terms, you must stop using the site.
