Anti-Money Laundering and Know Your Customer Policy
Regulatory Obligations
Trollface Ltd operates in full compliance with applicable anti-money laundering (AML) legislation and the regulatory requirements imposed by the Curaçao Gaming Authority. The company maintains a documented AML and Counter-Financing of Terrorism (CFT) framework that governs its internal procedures, risk assessments, and reporting obligations.
KYC Verification Requirements
As part of its legal obligations, the operator requires all registered players to complete identity and address verification before processing withdrawal requests or where transaction volumes trigger internal review thresholds. The verification process may require players to submit one or more of the following documents:
- A valid government-issued photographic identity document, such as a current passport or driver’s licence.
- Proof of residential address, such as a utility bill, bank statement, or official correspondence, issued within the preceding three months.
- Verification of the payment method used for deposits, which may include a photograph of a bank card with the middle digits obscured, or a screenshot of an e-wallet or cryptocurrency account.
- Additional documentation where the operator’s risk assessment or regulatory requirements indicate that further verification is necessary.
Verification documents must be submitted in legible form. The operator reserves the right to request original or certified copies where digital submissions are insufficient for verification purposes. Players are advised to complete verification promptly following account registration in order to avoid delays in processing withdrawals.
Transaction Monitoring
The operator applies risk-based transaction monitoring procedures to detect and prevent suspicious financial activity. Transactions that are identified as unusual or that exceed defined thresholds may be subject to enhanced due diligence, temporary hold, or reporting to the relevant authorities in accordance with applicable AML legislation. The operator will not provide advance notice to a player in circumstances where reporting a transaction to authorities is required by law.
Trollface Ltd reserves the right to suspend, restrict, or close any account where it has reasonable grounds to suspect that the account is being used for money laundering, fraud, or other unlawful activity.
Data Protection and Privacy
Data Controller
Trollface Ltd acts as the data controller in respect of personal information collected from players through the andromeda-casino-nz.com platform. The company is committed to processing personal data in accordance with applicable data protection legislation, including the principles set out in the United Kingdom General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and, where applicable, international data protection standards relevant to the jurisdictions in which it operates.
Data Collection and Use
Personal data is collected for specific, lawful, and legitimate purposes. The primary purposes for which player data is collected and processed include:
- Account registration and identity verification in fulfilment of KYC obligations.
- Processing deposits, withdrawals, and other financial transactions.
- Compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, including AML/CFT reporting obligations.
- Provision of customer support services.

The operator does not sell, rent, or otherwise transfer player personal data to unaffiliated third parties for commercial marketing purposes without the player’s explicit consent. Data may be shared with third parties where required by law, in connection with the operation of the platform by trusted service providers, or for the purposes of fraud prevention.
Technical Security Measures
All data transmitted between players’ devices and the platform’s servers is protected using Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption operating at a minimum of 128-bit strength. This ensures that personally identifiable information, login credentials, and financial data cannot be intercepted by unauthorised third parties during transmission. The operator also employs firewalls, access controls, and routine security assessments as part of its information security management practices.
Players are encouraged to use strong, unique passwords for their accounts, to enable two-factor authentication where available, and to ensure that their own devices are adequately protected against unauthorised access.
Data Retention
Personal data is retained for the period necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, and in any event for the minimum retention period required by applicable law or regulation. Account data and transaction records are typically retained for a period of five years following account closure, in compliance with standard AML/CFT record-keeping requirements.
Full details of the operator’s data collection practices, lawful bases for processing, data subject rights, and retention periods are set out in the Privacy Policy, which forms part of the regulatory disclosures applicable to this platform.
Responsible Gambling
Commitment to Player Protection
Trollface Ltd acknowledges that gambling can cause harm to a proportion of players, and the operator maintains a structured responsible gambling programme as a condition of its licence and as a matter of corporate obligation. The responsible gambling framework implemented on this platform is designed to assist players in maintaining control over their gambling activity and to provide timely intervention where signs of problematic gambling are identified.
Player-Controlled Tools
The following tools are available to all registered players and may be activated at any time through the account settings or by contacting the support team:

- Session time limits: Players may restrict the maximum duration of continuous play within any single session.

- Self-exclusion: Players may request permanent or long-term self-exclusion from the platform. Self-exclusion requests are actioned promptly, and the operator undertakes to suppress promotional communications to self-excluded players for the duration of the exclusion period. Self-exclusion cannot be reversed prior to the expiry of the minimum period specified at the time of the request.
Minor Protection
The operator strongly recommends that players who share devices with minors take appropriate steps to prevent unauthorised access to gambling services. This may include enabling parental control software, using password protection on devices, and ensuring that login credentials are not accessible to persons under the age of 18.

Dispute Resolution
Internal Complaints Procedure
Players who have a complaint regarding any aspect of the services provided by Andromeda Casino are encouraged to raise the matter through the operator’s internal complaints process as a first step. Complaints may be submitted by contacting the customer support team via:
- Email: support@andromeda-casino-nz.com
- Telephone: +64 9 304 9953

Complaints should include a clear description of the issue, the relevant account details, any supporting transaction references or screenshots, and the outcome the player is seeking. The operator aims to acknowledge complaints within 24 hours of receipt and to provide a substantive response within 14 days. Where a complaint requires more extensive investigation, the operator will notify the player of the anticipated timeframe for resolution.
Escalation and External Dispute Resolution
Where a player is not satisfied with the outcome of the internal complaints process, the matter may be escalated to the operator’s licensing authority. Formal complaints relating to the operator’s compliance with the conditions of the Curaçao gaming licence may be submitted to the Curaçao Gaming Authority through the channels published on its official website.
Players are advised to retain records of all correspondence with the operator, including dates, reference numbers, and the substance of communications, as these may be required when pursuing an escalated complaint.
It is noted that New Zealand does not currently operate a domestic online gambling regulatory framework that provides statutory dispute resolution services for offshore-licensed platforms. New Zealand players are advised that consumer protections available through the New Zealand Commerce Commission and other domestic bodies may apply in relation to general consumer law matters but do not extend to the specific regulation of online gambling services provided by offshore operators.
Governing Law
The Terms and Conditions governing the relationship between the operator and the player, and any dispute arising from or in connection with them, are subject to the laws of Curaçao, unless otherwise specified in the applicable Terms and Conditions. Players acknowledge that by registering on the platform they agree to submit to the jurisdiction specified in the Terms and Conditions for the resolution of any disputes that cannot be resolved through the internal complaints procedure.
Game Fairness and Software Integrity
All games made available on this platform are supplied by licensed and reputable third-party software providers. Game outcomes are determined by certified Random Number Generator (RNG) systems, which are subject to independent technical testing and auditing by accredited testing laboratories. The published Return to Player (RTP) percentages associated with individual games reflect the outcomes of these independent audits.
The operator does not have the ability to alter game outcomes in real time, and no intervention is made by the operator in the determination of results for individual rounds of play. Players are advised to review the individual game information, including applicable RTP figures, before committing funds to play.
