This Privacy Policy explains how spaceman-game.co.za collects, uses, and protects your personal information. We operate this site in compliance with the Protection of Personal Information Act 4 of 2013 (POPIA) and any applicable regulations issued by the Information Regulator of South Africa.
Read this policy carefully. By using this site, you confirm that you've read and understood how we handle your data.
Who We Are
spaceman-game.co.za is an informational and affiliate website. We publish guides, reviews, and content about the Spaceman crash game by Pragmatic Play. We do not operate any gambling games, hold player accounts, or process financial transactions. When you click an affiliate link on this site, you leave our platform and enter a third-party licensed gambling operator's environment.
For POPIA purposes, we are the Responsible Party for personal information collected directly through this website.

Affiliate Links and Third-Party Operators
This site contains affiliate links to licensed gambling operators. When you click one of these links, you'll be redirected to an external site. That operator's own privacy policy governs how they collect and use your data. We have no control over their data practices, and we are not responsible for their privacy policies or actions.
We may receive a commission if you register or deposit with a linked operator. This does not affect the price you pay or the terms you receive.

We may share your information in the following limited circumstances:
- With analytics providers (such as Google Analytics) who process data on our behalf under data processing agreements
- With hosting and technical service providers who need access to operate this website
- With the Information Regulator or other authorities if required by South African law
- In the event of a business transfer, merger, or sale of this website
Any third party we share data with is required to handle it in accordance with POPIA and applicable data protection standards.
International Data Transfers
Some of our service providers, including analytics and hosting platforms, may process data outside South Africa. Where this happens, we take reasonable steps to ensure that your information is protected to a standard comparable to POPIA requirements.
Data Retention
We keep your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected, or as required by law. Contact form submissions are typically retained for up to 12 months. Analytics data is retained in accordance with the settings of the relevant analytics platform.
