This Privacy Policy has been crafted to provide you with insight into how we handle, gather, and utilize your information when you use our websites. These websites serve as informational resources for casino games and the gambling industry, collectively known as the “Services.”
We urge you to carefully review this Privacy Policy and utilize it to make informed decisions. If you disagree with any aspect of this Policy, please refrain from using the Site.
To access detailed information on specific topics, simply click on the corresponding links in the list below. We have organized the Policy into sections for your convenience, enabling you to easily locate the information that pertains to your concerns.

By using Our Website and Our Services, each User accepts the terms set forth in this Privacy Policy and the Terms of Service. Anyone that does not agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy and the Terms of Service should not use Our Website. The only recourse for Users that do not agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy and the Terms of Service shall be to discontinue using Our Services and visiting Our Website. By using Our Website, You consent to having Your personal data transferred to and processed by Us, Our consultants and Our service providers.
Consent
By using Our Website and Services each User consents to Privacy Policy, as well as the limitation of liability, arbitration, refund policy and Our Terms of Service that form the Agreement.
The Information We Collect
The information we gather can be classified into two categories:
Non-personal Information: This type of information is unidentifiable and non-identifiable. It is acquired through your interaction with the website and your use of the Services. Rest assured, this information cannot be used to identify you personally.
Technical Information: To improve the functionality of our Services and provide you with an enhanced user experience, we collect technical data transmitted by your computer. This data includes details about your hardware and software, such as your device’s browser type, operating system, access times, and the website’s domain name from which you accessed the Services.
Additionally, we gather data related to your usage of the Services, encompassing user activities like page views, time spent on specific pages, online browsing behavior, clicks, and other similar actions. This information plays a crucial role in our research and analytics efforts, helping us better understand how you utilize our Services.
We take steps to ensure your privacy is safeguarded. Here’s how:
Aggregated or De-identified Information: We aggregate, anonymize, or de-identify the data we collect through the Services or other means. This means that the information, on its own, cannot personally identify you. When it comes to using and disclosing such aggregated or de-identified data, there are no restrictions under this Privacy Policy. We may share it with others without limitations and for various purposes.
Personal Information: The second type of data we collect is personally identifiable information, which includes details that can identify an individual or potentially identify them with reasonable effort (referred to as “Personal Information”). We may collect this information when you subscribe to our email newsletters, providing us with your email address on our website, or when you post a comment, including your name and email address in response to one of our news pieces.
Connection Details and Device Information: Additionally, we may collect specific information related to your device and hardware, such as IP addresses and other connection details. It’s important to note that if we combine Personal Information with Non-personal Information, the combined data will be treated as Personal Information for as long as it remains combined. Your privacy matters to us, and we take appropriate measures to protect your information.
How the Information is Used
We handle your personal data with care and only when it’s allowed by the law. Typically, we use your personal data in these situations:
- When it’s needed for our or someone else’s legitimate interests, as long as your rights and interests aren’t overlooked.
- When you’ve given us the green light to process your personal data based on your consent. Rest assured, we’ll always ask for your consent before bombarding your inbox with third-party marketing emails. And remember, you can say “no” to marketing anytime by reaching out to us.
We put your Personal Information to work in the ways detailed in this Privacy Policy. Apart from what we’ve already mentioned, the data we gather, including your Personal Information, serves these genuine purposes (all while respecting your interests and fundamental rights):

- To carry out anonymous analytics aimed at enhancing and customizing our Services to align with your needs and interests.
- To test out modifications to the Services and refine their functionality.
Sharing Your Personal Information
Rest assured, we don’t engage in any wheeling and dealing, selling, or passing around your Personal Information to outsiders, except as we indicate in this Privacy Policy. Beyond the various uses mentioned earlier, there are a few instances where we might pass on your Personal Information to other parties, and here’s how:
- With Our Affiliates: We may share your Personal Information with companies that are part of our corporate family.

- Support for Website Performance: We may also engage other third-party marketing service providers to help us enhance the performance of our website.
Your privacy is a priority, and we take every measure to protect your Personal Information while ensuring the smooth operation of our services.

We’re strict about one thing: your data isn’t for their personal use. They can only process it for specific purposes, strictly following our guidelines.
When it comes to sharing your information, we do it in good faith, with clear reasons:
- Legal Compliance: If there’s a law, regulation, legal procedure, or government request, we may have to disclose your Personal Information to stay on the right side of the law.
- Formal Examination: We’ll use your data if we suspect illegal activities, wrongdoing, potential fraud, or security concerns. It’s all about maintaining a safe and secure environment.

Categories of Data that We Hold about You
