Some will, although rare, ask for a scan of your Passport or identity card. This is for the prevention of money laundering and compliance with KYC (know your customer) legislation, rather than for any negative reason.
Each casino is different, normally an email to
[email protected] (where casino name is the casino you are playing with) will normally get you these answers up front.
For the record, I've never had any online casino use my personal data inappropriately, or share it etc. As long as you stick to well licensed jurisdictions, all is usually fine.
