Who This Privacy Policy Applies To
This Privacy Policy applies to people who visit the website, read our content, use comparison pages, click outbound buttons, submit forms, interact with cookie controls, or contact us directly. It also applies to technical information created when a browser, mobile device, or security system connects with the website.
When a visitor leaves this website and enters a third-party poker, casino, payment, app, or affiliate partner website, that third party controls its own privacy practices. This website does not control how external operators verify identity, manage deposits, process withdrawals, run promotions, or store user account data.
| Area | How This Policy Applies |
|---|---|
| Website content | Applies to visits, page views, comparison tools, guides, and informational pages. |
| Affiliate buttons | Applies to clicks and tracking used to understand referrals and site performance. |
| Contact forms | Applies when a visitor chooses to send a message or request information. |
| External operator sites | Does not control the privacy practices of third-party gambling or payment platforms. |
Information We May Collect
The website may collect limited information directly from visitors, automatically through technical systems, or through cookies and similar technologies. The type of information depends on how the visitor uses the website and whether optional features are enabled.
Information You Provide Voluntarily
Visitors may choose to provide information when they contact us, send a request, report a problem, subscribe to a communication, or respond to a form. This information may include a name, email address, message content, and any other details the visitor chooses to include.
Visitors should avoid sending sensitive information through general contact forms. The website does not need gambling account passwords, payment card numbers, identity documents, wallet seed phrases, or private financial credentials to answer ordinary website enquiries.
Information Collected Automatically
When a visitor opens the website, some technical information may be generated automatically. This can include IP address, approximate location derived from the connection, browser type, device type, operating system, visited pages, referral source, session duration, language settings, screen size, and interaction events.
This information helps the website load correctly, protect against misuse, understand which pages are useful, fix technical issues, and improve navigation for desktop and mobile visitors.
Cookies and Similar Technologies
The website may use cookies, pixels, tags, local storage, or similar technologies. Some are necessary for the site to function, while others may support analytics, affiliate tracking, advertising measurement, or user preference storage.
Optional cookies are used only where they are allowed and where the visitor has been given the relevant choice through the website’s consent tools. Browser settings may also allow visitors to delete or block cookies.
Affiliate and Outbound Click Data
The website may record information when a visitor clicks a button or outbound referral route leading to a third-party operator. This may include the page where the click happened, the destination partner, the time of the click, campaign identifiers, device information, and basic technical data needed to attribute a referral.
This type of data helps measure whether comparison pages, poker bonus pages, app pages, crypto poker pages, and payment method pages are working correctly. It also helps affiliate partners verify referrals without giving this website access to a player account, gambling balance, deposit history, or withdrawal history.
Information We Do Not Intentionally Collect
This website is not an online poker operator and does not run a player cashier. Because of that, we do not intentionally collect the same information that a gambling operator may request during registration, identity verification, deposits, withdrawals, or responsible gambling checks.
- No player balances. We do not hold funds or manage poker account wallets.
- No payment card processing. We do not request or store full card numbers, CVV codes, or bank login details.
- No gambling account access. We do not ask for operator usernames, passwords, seed phrases, or private wallet keys.
- No identity verification documents. We do not need passports, driving licences, proof of address files, or source-of-funds documents for normal website use.
- No intentional special category data. We do not ask visitors to provide health data, political opinions, religious beliefs, biometric data, or similar sensitive details.
If a visitor sends unnecessary sensitive details to us, we may delete or restrict that information where appropriate and avoid using it for ordinary website operations.
How We Use Information
Information may be used to operate the website, improve content, secure the platform, respond to visitors, measure affiliate performance, and understand how people interact with poker-related comparison pages.
| Purpose | Example Use |
|---|---|
| Website operation | Loading pages, remembering basic preferences, displaying content correctly, and maintaining site functionality. |
| Security | Detecting suspicious traffic, preventing spam, reducing abuse, and protecting the website infrastructure. |
| Analytics | Understanding which pages are used, how visitors move through the site, and where content can be improved. |
| Affiliate measurement | Recording outbound clicks and campaign identifiers so referrals can be attributed correctly. |
| Communication | Responding to messages, support requests, correction requests, or privacy enquiries. |
| Compliance | Keeping records where needed to respond to legal, regulatory, security, or rights-related requests. |
Lawful Bases for Processing
Where data protection law requires a lawful basis, different activities may rely on different bases. The exact basis depends on the feature used and the type of information involved.
| Lawful Basis | When It May Apply |
|---|---|
| Consent | Optional cookies, marketing preferences, or other activities where visitors are asked to make a clear choice. |
| Legitimate interests | Basic analytics, security monitoring, fraud prevention, site improvement, affiliate performance measurement, and non-intrusive business reporting. |
| Legal obligation | Responding to lawful requests, keeping records needed for compliance, or handling rights requests. |
| Contract or pre-contract steps | Responding to a visitor’s direct request where communication is needed to provide the requested information. |
Where consent is used, visitors may be able to withdraw that consent through the available preference tools or by contacting us. Withdrawal does not normally affect processing that already took place before consent was withdrawn.
Affiliate Tracking and Gambling Operator Referrals
This website may earn a commission when visitors click from our pages to a third-party poker, casino, bonus, payment, app, or crypto poker operator and then complete a qualifying action. Affiliate tracking helps connect the referral with the correct campaign.
Affiliate tracking may involve click identifiers, campaign tags, referral timestamps, destination operator data, browser information, and technical identifiers. This data is used to verify that a visitor reached an operator through this website. It does not mean that we can see a visitor’s full operator account, personal gambling history, payment card details, identity documents, or private communication with the operator.
Third-party operators may collect their own data after a visitor leaves this website. Their privacy notices explain how they handle account creation, age verification, deposits, withdrawals, promotions, responsible gambling checks, and fraud prevention.
Cookies, Analytics, and Measurement
Cookies and similar technologies may be used to keep the website working, remember preferences, measure page performance, understand user journeys, and track outbound affiliate clicks. Some cookies are essential for security and functionality. Others may be optional and controlled through consent settings.
| Category | Purpose | Typical Status |
|---|---|---|
| Essential cookies | Support security, page loading, consent storage, and core website functions. | Usually necessary |
| Analytics cookies | Measure traffic, page usage, device types, and content performance. | Usually optional |
| Affiliate cookies | Attribute outbound referrals and measure campaign performance. | May be optional depending on setup |
| Advertising cookies | Support ad measurement, frequency control, and campaign reporting. | Usually optional |
| Preference cookies | Remember settings such as consent choices or display preferences. | May be necessary or optional depending on use |
Visitors can usually control cookies through browser settings, device settings, and any cookie preference tools provided on the website. Blocking some cookies may affect site performance, referral tracking, or saved preferences.
Information may be shared with service providers and partners where this is needed to operate, measure, secure, or improve the website. We aim to share only the information needed for the relevant purpose.
- Hosting and infrastructure providers. These providers help keep the website online, stable, and secure.
- Analytics providers. These providers help measure traffic, page performance, and user journeys.
- Affiliate networks and operators. These partners help track referrals, campaign performance, and commission attribution.
- Security and anti-spam providers. These providers help detect suspicious traffic, automated abuse, and technical threats.
- Professional advisers. These may include legal, accounting, compliance, or technical advisers where needed.
- Authorities or regulators. Information may be shared where required by law, legal process, or a valid regulatory request.
We do not sell personal information as a standalone product. Affiliate relationships may involve referral measurement, but that is different from selling a visitor’s full identity, gambling history, or payment details.
International Data Transfers
Some service providers, analytics tools, hosting systems, affiliate networks, or business partners may operate in countries outside the visitor’s location. This means technical and usage information may be processed or accessed internationally.
Where data protection law requires safeguards for international transfers, suitable measures may be used. These may include contractual protections, provider assessments, transfer tools, or other safeguards available under applicable law.
How Long We Keep Information
Information is kept only for as long as reasonably needed for the purpose for which it was collected. Retention periods may vary depending on technical needs, legal requirements, security needs, affiliate reporting cycles, and the type of data involved.
| Information Type | Typical Retention Approach |
|---|---|
| Contact messages | Kept for as long as needed to respond, resolve the issue, and maintain reasonable records. |
| Technical logs | Kept for a limited period needed for security, diagnostics, and service reliability. |
| Analytics data | Kept according to analytics settings and reporting needs, often in aggregated or pseudonymised form. |
| Affiliate click data | Kept for the period needed to verify referrals, resolve disputes, and complete reporting. |
| Cookie preferences | Kept long enough to remember consent choices and avoid asking repeatedly. |
When information is no longer needed, it may be deleted, anonymised, aggregated, or securely archived depending on the reason it was retained.
How We Protect Information
We use reasonable technical and organisational measures designed to protect information from unauthorised access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure. These measures may include secure hosting, access controls, monitoring, encrypted connections, spam filtering, and limiting access to people or providers who need it.
No website or online system can guarantee complete security. Visitors should also take care when using shared devices, public networks, password managers, browser extensions, and external operator websites.
Your Privacy Rights
Depending on location and applicable law, visitors may have rights over their personal information. These rights may apply differently depending on the type of data, the purpose of processing, and the lawful basis used.
- Access. You may ask whether we hold personal information about you and request a copy.
- Correction. You may ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete information.
- Deletion. You may ask us to delete information where there is no longer a valid reason to keep it.
- Restriction. You may ask us to limit certain processing while a request or dispute is reviewed.
- Objection. You may object to certain processing based on legitimate interests, including some types of direct marketing or profiling where applicable.
- Portability. You may ask for certain information in a portable format where this right applies.
- Withdraw consent. Where consent is used, you may withdraw it using available tools or by contacting us.
- Complaint. You may complain to a data protection authority if you believe your information has been handled incorrectly.
To help us respond to a rights request, we may need enough information to identify the relevant data and confirm that the request is genuine. We do not ask for more information than is reasonably needed to handle the request.
Children and Age-Restricted Content
This website is intended for adults. The content covers online poker, gambling operators, bonuses, payment methods, and related topics that are not directed at children. Visitors who are under the legal gambling age in their location should not use this website.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If we become aware that a child has provided personal information through this website, we may delete it or take other reasonable steps to restrict its use.
External Websites and Operator Pages
The website may mention or route visitors toward third-party poker rooms, casino brands, bonus pages, payment services, mobile app providers, crypto platforms, or affiliate partners. Once a visitor enters an external website, the external website controls its own privacy practices.
Before opening an account, depositing funds, claiming a bonus, installing an app, or using a crypto wallet with an external operator, visitors should review that operator’s privacy information, terms, payment rules, responsible gambling tools, and verification requirements.
Automated Decision-Making and Profiling
The website may use analytics and affiliate measurement tools to understand general website performance and referral activity. These tools may group traffic by pages, campaigns, device type, or interaction patterns.
We do not use this website to make gambling account decisions, approve deposits, reject withdrawals, set player limits, verify identity, or decide whether a visitor may gamble. Those decisions, where they exist, are controlled by third-party operators and their own systems.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may revise this Privacy Policy when website features, service providers, affiliate arrangements, legal requirements, or data practices change. The current version of the policy should be reviewed by visitors who want to understand how their information may be handled.
