Terms of Use
Who these terms are with
These terms of use are an agreement between you (the visitor) and Smith Media Limited, 194 Queen Street, Christchurch 8011, New Zealand — the operator of CoastSpin (coastspin.com). Where these terms say "we", "us" or "our", we mean Smith Media Limited.
By accessing CoastSpin, you agree to these terms of use. Please read them carefully before continuing. If you don't accept them, you shouldn't use this site.
1. Purpose of the site
CoastSpin offers free social casino simulation with four browser games using virtual chips for entertainment alone. **No actual money changes hands here.** You cannot win or lose real funds. The platform delivers harmless recreational play, not gambling.
2. Age requirement
CoastSpin is restricted to adults aged 18 and over. By visiting our site, you confirm you satisfy this age requirement. If you're a parent or guardian who suspects a minor is accessing CoastSpin, please contact us right away.
3. Virtual chips
I'm ready to rewrite the paragraph for CoastSpin in en-NZ English (colour, favourite, realise, organise, programme), keeping it 35-48 words and preserving all facts and proper nouns. However, I don't see the original paragraph in your message. You've asked me to rewrite text that "starts with 'The chips on the site are virtual...'" but that text isn't included. Please paste the complete original paragraph, and I'll deliver the rewrite immediately — no preamble, just the rewritten text.
- exchange chips for money, gift cards, goods or services;
- transfer chips to another person;
- make a claim based on chips or virtual wins.
Chips refill automatically to one thousand when depleted, though your balance resets with each new session.
4. Intellectual property
CoastSpin and its licensors retain ownership of all site materials, encompassing text, imagery, code, game simulators and associated content. Copyright and intellectual property legislation safeguard these assets. Unauthorised reproduction, alteration, commercial exploitation or redistribution remains prohibited.
You may view content for personal, non-commercial use and share links to the site’s public pages.
5. Your obligations
When using the site you agree to:
- comply with New Zealand law and these terms of use;

- not attempt to penetrate or disrupt the site’s systems;
- not use automated tools (bots, scrapers) on the site without our permission.
6. Changes to the content
We can update, expand or remove website content whenever necessary without advance notice. Terms adjust in the same manner—changes take effect on publication. This page always shows the latest revision date.
7. Availability
CoastSpin works to keep the site accessible around the clock, though we can't guarantee unbroken service. Maintenance, technical problems or unexpected events might occasionally render the site unavailable. We accept no responsibility for any losses arising from downtime.
8. Limitation of liability
CoastSpin provides this site as-is without warranty of error-free or uninterrupted operation. You use the site at your own risk. CoastSpin accepts no liability for indirect, incidental or consequential damages from site use, including data loss or business interruption.
This limitation does not restrict mandatory rights under the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 or the Fair Trading Act 1986.
9. Privacy
Our privacy policy sets out how we manage your personal data. By using this site, you agree to those terms.

CoastSpin accepts no liability for content, practices or availability on external websites including Gambling Helpline NZ and Safer Gambling Aotearoa. These sites operate independently under their own terms and conditions.
12. Governing law and disputes
New Zealand law controls these terms and site operation. Initial dispute resolution occurs through good-faith negotiation. If agreement cannot be reached, the District Court of New Zealand will determine the matter.
Consumers may bring disputes before the Disputes Tribunal (disputestribunal.govt.nz). For consumer advice, contact Consumer Protection at the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment (consumerprotection.govt.nz).
