Your privacy assured

The increase in popularity of online poker is strongly linked to privacy.  Unlike in the “real world” poker matches, online poker offers anonymity like nothing else.  Together with anonymity, confidentiality and privacy of personal data is of paramount importance. Sites like www.mansionpoker.com with a highly visible privacy statement are very popular with players who want to have their privacy assured.

All credible online poker sites will use SSL encryption as a minimum to protect the financial aspect of the online poker relationship. Bank account and credit card details are amongst the most valuable details the online poker player divulges as part of its trusted relationship with the online poker operator.

Personal contact details are often abused by organisations who claim to take your details for one purpose and in fact make a sizeable secondary income by onselling member contact details.  This is not in the best interest of the online poker operator if they wish to keep their members happy. No one enjoys receiving spam and unsolicited mail, and it is imperative that online poker operators respect every online poker player’s right to privacy.  Online poker operators should undertake in writing as part of their privacy policy to protect their member’s details and not divulge them to any third party.

Of course, this privacy statement cannot will have fine print which does allow the online poker operator to divulge your information and details if they use a third party payment provider or financial service to administer and direct funds to their members
