Data Types We Collect and Why

• Non-personal data: data that is gathered throughout your usage of our website. It does not reveal your identity in any way and is only used for statistics.
• Personal Data: data that identifies you, or that can identify you when combined with other data. On this Site that is limited to your IP address, your device and browser information, and anything you send us yourself, such as your email address when you write to us. There is no user account on this Site, so we do not collect or store passwords. We do not ask for and do not process special categories of data.

We may collect the above-mentioned data from you as follows:

• Automatically: through standard web server logs when you visit the Site, as described below.
• Voluntarily: by sending us information yourself, for example when you contact us by email.

Cookies

casino.net sets no cookies. Cookies are simply very small files stored by your browser, used for navigation or to make a website run more efficiently.

The Site embeds no third-party script that could set one, so there is nothing here for you to consent to and no consent banner to click. If we ever add a cookie, we will ask for your consent before it is set. You can block or delete cookies through your browser settings at any time, as described below.

Here are some of the main types of cookies and their purpose:

• Essential cookies: these would be needed for the Site to work. casino.net sets none.
• Analytics and performance cookies: these would show us how many people visit the Site and which pages they read. We currently run no analytics or performance cookies on casino.net. If we add any, they will only be set after you have consented.
• Advertising cookies: we set none of our own. Operators and their affiliate networks may set an affiliate cookie when you click through to them from our pages, which is explained under Affiliate and Operator Tracking below.

Here is what actually runs on casino.net, and the legal basis for each. We do not run any third-party analytics, advertising pixel or tag manager on this Site, and every font and script is served from our own domain, so your IP address is not passed to a font or script provider.

Also, what users forget is that a lot of browsers will allow you to delete cookies after you’re done exploring our site. You may also impose a block from within your browser’s settings to completely block any types of cookies, however, this may render parts of our Site inoperable, and as such, we do not recommend doing it.

Affiliate and Operator Tracking

casino.net is financed through affiliate partnerships with licensed gambling operators. If you reach an operator through one of our links, which are tracking or affiliate links, and you register there or carry out an action, that operator can establish that the referral came from casino.net. It does so through an affiliate cookie, a tracking parameter in the URL, or a unique partner ID. We are paid a commission on that basis, and it costs you nothing extra.

When you click one of our links to an operator, personal data may be passed to the tracking system used by that operator or by its affiliate network. In particular this is your IP address, a timestamp, and a click or partner ID. From the moment you land on the operator’s site, that operator alone is responsible for what happens to your data and its own privacy policy applies, not ours. We have no access to any account you open there and no visibility of what you do on it.

casino.net itself stores nothing on your device when you click. Our link is a plain redirect, and any affiliate cookie is set by the operator or its network on their own domain, where they, and not we, are the controller.

We take part only in the affiliate programmes of operators licensed in the market a page is written for. We do not take part in general advertising networks such as Google AdSense, and we do not sell your personal data to anyone.

Third Party Linking and Terms

Our Site does contain hyperlinks to third parties, which have their own terms and conditions. Be sure to read them carefully, as they do not match the ones which you can find here. Therefore, we will not be held liable for damage that may be caused by you visiting the said third-party websites. Those can be malware or any other fraudulent software, but are not limited to them.

Retention Periods and Data Sharing

We keep personal data only for as long as it is needed for the purpose it was collected for, or for as long as a legal retention obligation requires it. Server log data is kept only for as long as it is needed for security monitoring and traffic statistics. Email correspondence is kept for as long as we need it to deal with your enquiry and for up to 24 months afterwards. Once data is no longer needed, it is deleted.

We do not sell your personal data, and we do not share it with third parties, with these exceptions:

• Our hosting provider, which stores the server logs described above and acts only on our instructions under a data processing agreement.
• Operators and their affiliate networks, which receive the click data described under Affiliate and Operator Tracking, and only at the moment you click through to them.
• You have given us your consent.
• We are required to disclose it by law, by a court, or by a regulator.
• It is needed to establish, exercise or defend a legal claim.
• The business or part of it is sold or reorganised, in which case the acquirer is bound by this policy.

Your Rights Regarding Personal Data

• Right to be informed about the processing of your personal data (Articles 13 and 14 of the GDPR).
• Right of access to the data we hold about you (Article 15 of the GDPR).
• Right to correction of incorrect data or completion of incomplete data (Article 16 of the GDPR).
• Right to erasure of your data stored by us (Article 17 of the GDPR).
• Right to limit the processing of your data (Article 18 of the GDPR).
• Right to data portability (Article 20 of the GDPR).
• Right to object to data processing (Article 21 of the GDPR).
• Right to withdraw your consent at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of the processing carried out before you withdrew it (Article 7 of the GDPR).

To exercise any of these rights, write to us at privacy@casino.net. We answer within one month.

If you believe that our processing of your personal data breaches data protection law, Article 77 of the GDPR gives you the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the country where you live, where you work, or where the alleged breach took place. Our lead supervisory authority is the Commission for Personal Data Protection of the Republic of Bulgaria, 2 Prof. Tsvetan Lazarov Blvd., 1592 Sofia. You may also contact the authority in your own country, for example the Agencia Española de Protección de Datos in Spain or the Garante per la protezione dei dati personali in Italy.

Opt-Out at Any Time Without Prior Notice

To opt-out of data collection and sharing, you can:

• Set your browser to block cookies, or to warn you before one is stored.
• Set your browser to delete cookies automatically when you close it.
• Object to processing based on our legitimate interest, or withdraw a consent you have already given, by writing to us.
• Contact us and tell us which data you want removed.

For detailed information on how to block cookies, please check the instructions for the browser of your choice. Blocking every cookie may stop parts of the Site from working.

Data Security

We take reasonable steps to protect your information, but no website can guarantee complete security. Access to agents, contractors, and third parties will be limited in certain cases for your protection. All data is subjected to strict confidentiality.

Usage of the Site by Minors

This Site is not intended for anyone below the legal gambling age in their jurisdiction. In Spain, Italy and most of the European Union that age is 18. In Canada it is 18 or 19 depending on the province, and in several US states it is 21. If you are below the legal gambling age where you live, please leave the Site. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone below that age. If you believe a minor has given us personal data, contact us at privacy@casino.net and we will delete it.

Transferring of Data

We may store and process your personal data inside the European Economic Area (EEA). If you are based outside the EEA, the information you provide may be processed in a country other than your own. In every case we take measures to ensure your personal data receives protection upon transfer.

When using certain services, personal data may be transferred to the USA. If the recipient is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, the transfer is based on the European Commission’s adequacy decision. Otherwise, the transfer is based on the European Commission’s standard contractual clauses pursuant to Article 46 GDPR.

Privacy Laws Outside the EEA

casino.net is published in a number of markets, and the GDPR is the standard we apply to every visitor, wherever they are. Where local law adds obligations, we follow those as well. This includes the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018 in the United Kingdom, the Federal Law on the Protection of Personal Data Held by Private Parties (LFPDPPP) in Mexico, Ley 25.326 on the Protection of Personal Data in Argentina, and PIPEDA together with Quebec’s Law 25 in Canada. Because the GDPR standard is stricter than these regimes, applying it means the protections described in this policy are available to you regardless of where you live.

Additional Rights for United States Residents

If you are a resident of California or of another US state with a comprehensive privacy law, you have the following rights in addition to the ones set out above:

• The right to know what categories of personal information we collect, why we use them, and which categories of third parties we disclose them to.
• The right to access the specific pieces of personal information we hold about you.
• The right to request deletion of your personal information.
• The right to correct inaccurate personal information.
• The right to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information and of targeted advertising.
• The right not to be treated differently for exercising any of these rights.

US privacy law works on an opt-out basis, unlike the GDPR, which asks for your consent before data is collected. Where advertising or analytics cookies could count as a sale or sharing of personal information under those laws, you can opt out at any time through your browser settings or by writing to privacy@casino.net. We will verify your request against the information we hold and answer within the period the applicable state law allows. You may use an authorised agent to submit a request for you.

Ad Disclosure

This comparison website is designed to help consumers make an informative choice regarding the best gambling products that they would like to use. We provide high-quality advertising services by presenting established brands of licensed operators across all our reviews.

Keep in mind that we receive a commission for advertising the brands listed on our website. This does not influence our review scores or ranking positions, which are determined by our scoring system. The one exception is Our Monthly Picks, a toggle you switch on yourself, which can reflect commercial relationships. Scores and the main ranking come from data. Please note that we do not compare ourselves to all operators on the market, but we still intend to provide you with the most up-to-date information.

Affiliate Disclosure

The main goal of casino.net is to provide its visitors with the most objective online casino reviews and guides. As such, we include affiliate links throughout our content. By registering through one of our links, we will receive a small commission at the cost of the casino. However, this will not affect any of the terms that we have outlined. Quality comes first, and we can assure you that there will be no compromises.
