Privacy Policy

There are two distinct streams of information: what you choose to share with us directly, and what gets logged automatically as you browse.

What You Tell Us

Filling in a contact form, or subscribing to receive our newsletter, involves sharing your name, your email address, and whatever message content you choose to send.

What Gets Logged Automatically

Standard web technology captures certain details every time you visit the Site, including:

• Your IP address and the general region it corresponds to.
• Details about your browser and the operating system you are using.
• Whether you are browsing on a desktop computer, a tablet, or a phone.
• Which specific Gates of Olympus guides and casino comparison pages you read, the order you visited them in, and how long you spent on each.
• Where you came from before arriving here – a search engine result, another website, or a direct link.
• The precise date, time, and duration of each visit.

Individually, most of this technical data does not identify you by name. Combined with other available signals, however, some of it can still qualify as personal data under applicable law, and we handle it carefully regardless of whether that legal threshold is strictly met in any given case.

Each purpose for which we use personal data is listed below, together with the corresponding legal basis where applicable data protection law requires us to identify one:

• Keeping the Site running correctly and displaying properly across the wide range of devices people use to access it. (Legitimate interest.)
• Understanding which Gates of Olympus content and casino comparisons genuinely help readers, so that we know what to improve or expand. (Legitimate interest.)
• Responding properly to messages people send us through the contact form. (Necessary to fulfill the request you have made.)
• Sending newsletter updates to people who have actively chosen to subscribe. (Consent.)
• Identifying and limiting any fraudulent or abusive activity directed at the Site. (Legitimate interest; legal obligation where relevant.)
• Crediting referrals correctly when a visit to this Site results in a registration at a partner casino. (Legitimate interest.)
• Satisfying any legal obligation that genuinely applies to us, including responding to lawful requests from regulators. (Legal obligation.)

We do not sell personal data to anyone, under any circumstances. Data is shared only in the following specific situations:

• With analytics partners such as Google Analytics, operating under their own data-handling terms, which may involve processing data outside your country of residence.
• With affiliate networks and casino operators, limited strictly to the click-attribution data required to confirm and process commissions owed to us.
• With regulators, courts, or law enforcement bodies, where we are legally compelled to make a disclosure.
• With a successor entity, should this Site ever be sold or transferred, under terms that preserve the protections described throughout this Policy.

Any third-party processor we engage operates under a written data processing agreement requiring it to protect personal data to a standard at least as strong as the commitments we make to you directly in this document.

• Analytics data collected through cookies: generally retained for up to 26 months.
• Contact form submissions: kept only while your specific inquiry remains open, then deleted, unless a legal obligation requires us to retain it longer.
• Newsletter subscriber data: retained until the moment you choose to unsubscribe.
• Affiliate referral tracking data: kept only long enough to verify a commission, generally no more than 90 days.

Once any specific category of data has served the purpose it was originally collected for, we either delete it securely or anonymize it to a degree that prevents it from being linked back to you as an individual.

Depending on where you live and which data protection regime applies to you, you may be entitled to: access the personal data we hold about you; have any inaccurate information corrected; request deletion of your data where there is no longer a valid reason for us to retain it; restrict certain types of processing in specific circumstances; receive a portable copy of your data in a commonly used electronic format; and object to, or withdraw consent for, processing carried out on the basis of consent or legitimate interest.

Any of these rights can be exercised by submitting a request through the contact form on this Site, clearly stating which right you wish to invoke. We will verify your identity before proceeding and will respond within 30 days, generally free of charge. If you are based in the European Union or the United Kingdom, you also retain the separate right to escalate any unresolved concern to your national data protection supervisory authority, which in the UK is the Information Commissioner’s Office at ico.org.uk.

We apply reasonable technical and organizational safeguards that are proportionate to the actual risk involved, including limiting which members of our team can access personal data internally, and handling anything submitted through our contact form with appropriate care. No method of transmitting information over the internet is ever completely free of risk, and we cannot offer an absolute guarantee of security for data sent to us electronically, but once any data reaches our own systems, we apply sensible and proportionate safeguards. Should you ever become aware of a security concern relating to data we hold about you, please tell us immediately through the contact form.

We may revise this Policy from time to time as our own practices, the wider regulatory environment, or the technology we depend on continues to evolve. Whenever we make a change, the updated version is published here together with a new effective date. Continuing to use the Site after any such update is published constitutes your acceptance of the revised terms.
