Welcome to the Platipus website at www.platipusgaming.com (the “Website”).
In these Terms, “Platipus” means the Platipus brand and each company that the owner of the Platipus brand authorises, from time to time, to develop, supply, license, or otherwise provide games, technology, or services under that brand, whether that company is connected to the group by shareholding, affiliation, or a licence agreement. This definition covers every such company as the group stands today, whatever its name, and any company that joins or replaces them in future. A company whose authorisation has ended, or which uses the Platipus brand without authorisation, is not part of Platipus. “We”, “us”, and “our” mean the Platipus company concerned.
These Terms apply to each Platipus company, and each Platipus company may rely on and enforce them. Where a regulator or any other person needs to identify the Platipus company concerned, it is the company that holds the relevant licence, registration, or approval listed in section 8, or that supplies the relevant game or service. A list of the companies currently authorised is available on request from legal@platipusgaming.com.
The Website is operated by the Platipus company identified at the foot of each page of the Website.
These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the Website, including its information, materials, demo games, client areas, and forms. By accessing or using the Website, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Website.
Platipus operates on a business-to-business (B2B) basis and provides gaming-related products, technology, and services only to business partners, including operators licensed in the jurisdictions where they operate. The Website and its content are directed at business partners and industry professionals, not consumers. The Website does not provide or facilitate real-money gambling, and nothing on it is an offer, invitation, or advertisement to consumers to gamble.

8.2. Where a jurisdiction requires it, Platipus games are tested and certified by accredited testing laboratories before they are supplied in that jurisdiction.
8.3. The appearance of a product on the Website does not mean that it is available, or may lawfully be supplied or operated, in every jurisdiction. Platipus supplies its products only to operators that hold the licences required in the jurisdictions where they offer them, and does not knowingly supply its products in breach of applicable sanctions.
8.4. Platipus supplies its games only under written agreements. To the extent provided in, and subject to, those agreements, each business partner is responsible for:
(a) holding and maintaining the licences and approvals required in each jurisdiction where it offers our games;
(b) offering our games only in the jurisdictions and regions where it is permitted to do so, and within the conditions and restrictions of its licences;
(c) geo-blocking and other technical measures that prevent access from jurisdictions where it is not licensed; and
(d) player-facing obligations, including age verification, responsible gambling measures, and compliance with local advertising rules.
8.5. Platipus does not authorise anyone to offer its games in a jurisdiction where they are not licensed. If Platipus becomes aware, including through a regulator, that its games are available through an unlicensed operator or in a jurisdiction where they are not permitted, it will take the steps available to it under its agreements, which may include requiring the games to be removed or suspending supply.
8.6. Platipus cooperates with the regulators that license or register it. Regulators and other interested parties may report unauthorised availability of our games to legal@platipusgaming.com.
9. Privacy and Cookies
9.1. The Platipus company that operates the Website is the controller of personal data collected through it. Other Platipus companies may act as controllers where they process personal data for their own purposes, for example when entering into an agreement with a business partner.
9.2. Personal data is processed in line with applicable data protection laws, including the GDPR and UK GDPR where they apply, and as described in our Privacy Policy and Cookies Policy. Non-essential cookies are used only with your consent where the law requires it.

Your continued use of the Website after that date means you accept the updated Terms.
11. Governing Law and Language
11.1. These Terms are governed by the law of the country in which the Platipus company concerned is incorporated, and the courts of that country have jurisdiction over any dispute about them. This does not apply where a separate agreement between you and a Platipus company provides otherwise, or where mandatory law gives you other rights.
