This policy explains what personal data gamblingslotsguide.com handles, why, and what you can do about it. It covers this website only. The site is operated by the Gambling Slots Guide editorial team, and you can reach us about privacy through our contact form.
What data do we collect?
We collect very little. There are four ways personal data reaches us: the server logs every website keeps, messages you send through the contact form, cookies set for our own logged-in administrators, and the click when you follow a link to a casino. We run no ad trackers and sell no data.
Server logs
When you load a page, our web server records technical details of the request: your IP address, the date and time, the page asked for, the referring page, and your browser and device type. We use these logs to keep the site running, fix errors and block abuse such as spam or attacks. Logs are kept for a limited period and then deleted.
The contact form
If you write to us through the contact page, we receive your name, your email address, your message and the technical details of the submission. We use them only to read and answer your message, and to keep a record of corrections we have made. We do not add you to a mailing list.
Cookies
The site runs on WordPress. WordPress sets cookies for people who log in to manage the site, which means our own editors and administrators. These cookies keep an admin signed in and remember basic settings. Ordinary readers who do not log in are not given these cookies. We do not use advertising cookies or cross-site tracking pixels.
Affiliate click-throughs
Some links to casinos are affiliate links, marked with rel=”sponsored”. When you click one, your browser goes to the casino through a tracking link run by the casino’s affiliate program. That link lets the casino know the visit came from us, so it can credit us if you sign up. We do not send your name or email with that click.
What happens once you reach a casino?
Once you land on a casino’s site, its own privacy policy and cookie rules apply, not ours. Casinos may collect far more than we do, including identity documents and payment details when you register or deposit. Read each casino’s privacy policy before you sign up. We have no control over how casinos or their affiliate programs handle your data.
Why do we use your data?
- To deliver and secure the website (server logs).
- To answer your questions and fix errors you report (contact form).
- To let our team manage the site (admin cookies).
- To be credited for referrals, which funds the site (affiliate clicks).
We rely on our legitimate interest in running a secure, working website, and on your choice to contact us or follow a link.
Who do we share data with?
We share data only with the service providers needed to run the site, such as our web host and email provider, and only for that purpose. We may disclose data if the law requires it. We never sell or rent personal data to anyone.
What are your rights?
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to ask what personal data we hold about you, to get a copy, to have it corrected, or to have it deleted. Some US states, such as California, give residents specific rights of this kind. Send any request through our contact form and tell us what you want. We may ask you to confirm your email address before we act.
Is the site for adults only?
Yes. This site is for people aged 21 and over. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone younger. If you believe a minor has contacted us, tell us and we will delete the message.
Will this policy change?
We will update this page if our setup changes, for example if we add an analytics tool. Any new tool will be listed here before or when it goes live, and the page will be reposted with the change.
