Who looks after your data
Athabasca Northern Interactive Ltd., operating athabascaspins.com from 1809 Barrington Street, Halifax, NS B3J 3K8, Canada, is responsible for the personal information described in this policy in accordance with Canada’s Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) and applicable provincial privacy laws. You can reach our privacy desk by email at support@athabascaspins.com, by phone at +1 905 555 0118, or through our Contact page and Support page.
What we collect
| When | What we receive |
|---|---|
| You register an account | First and last name, screen name, email address, password (stored strictly as a one-way cryptographic hash), date of birth, country, your optional email-news preference, your virtual Glacier Tokens balance and account timestamps (joined date, last sign-in). We also track consecutive failed sign-in attempts so an account can be temporarily locked for 15 minutes after five wrong tries. |
| You use the contact or support form | Your name, email address, selected topic, message body and, on the support form, an optional game title. |
| You request a password reset | Your account email address. We generate a single-use reset token (stored only as a cryptographic hash) that expires after one hour. |
| You browse the Site | Essential first-party session cookies and browser storage items that keep you signed in and remember your 19+ age check and cookie notice choice (see our Cookie Policy). Standard web server logs (IP address, request time and page path) are maintained for security and troubleshooting. |
We never ask for credit card numbers, banking credentials or financial details because nothing on athabascaspins.com can be purchased or cashed out.
What we use it for
- Operating your profile and virtual Glacier Tokens balance, and authenticating your sign-ins.
- Verifying 19+ age eligibility and regional compliance for adult social entertainment.
- Answering your messages when you contact our Halifax support desk or request a password reset.
- Protecting platform integrity, including rate-limiting repeated login attempts and filtering automated form spam.
- Sending optional game updates, strictly if you ticked the opt-in checkbox. You can switch this off at any time in My account.
Where it’s stored, and for how long
- Account records are stored on our server in an access-protected data file until you delete your account yourself in My account or ask our team to remove it.
- Support & contact enquiries are kept only as long as needed to resolve your question and handle follow-ups.
- Password reset tokens are purged once used or after their one-hour expiry window.
- Session identifiers remain active only for the duration of your authenticated session.
Who else handles it
- Our hosting and mail infrastructure, which stores the Site’s files and delivers support replies.
- Embedded game studios, loaded inside the player frame when you open a title, which may use their own browser storage to run the demo interface.
- Public authorities only where required by Canadian law or lawful court order.
We never sell or rent your personal information to third parties.
Your choices and rights
Under Canadian privacy law, you have the right to access the personal information we hold about you, request corrections to inaccurate details, withdraw optional marketing consent, and request permanent deletion of your profile.

Age restriction (19+)
athabascaspins.com is intended exclusively for adults aged 19 and over. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 19. If we learn that a minor has registered, we delete the account immediately.
