Last updated: September 12, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how iGamingPub (“iGamingPub”, “we”, “us” or “our”) collects, uses, stores and otherwise processes personal data when you visit or interact with igaming.pub (the “Website”).
iGamingPub is an independent informational and editorial website covering online gambling operators, casino reviews, licensing, payments, bonuses, player experience and related topics.
We take privacy seriously and aim to collect only the information reasonably necessary to operate, secure, analyze and improve the Website.
This Privacy Policy should be read together with our Terms and Conditions and Cookie Policy.
1. Data Controller
For personal data processed through the Website, iGamingPub acts as the data controller unless otherwise stated.
Privacy questions, data protection requests and other privacy-related communications may be submitted through the contact method made available on the Website.
Where applicable law requires additional information regarding the legal identity or establishment of the controller, that information may be provided through the Website’s Legal Notice or equivalent legal information page.
2. Scope of This Policy
This Privacy Policy applies to personal data processed when you:
- visit or browse iGamingPub;
- interact with Website features;
- change privacy or cookie preferences;
- follow outbound or affiliate links;
- submit a correction, complaint, review or other information;
- contact iGamingPub;
- report inaccurate casino information;
- communicate with us regarding editorial content;
- interact with analytics or measurement technologies where permitted; or
- otherwise use the Website.
This Policy does not govern personal data processed independently by online casinos, gambling operators, payment providers, affiliate networks, regulators or other third-party websites.
Those parties operate under their own privacy policies.
3. Personal Data We May Collect
The information processed depends on how you use the Website.
We do not require visitors to provide identity documents, banking information or gambling account credentials simply to browse iGamingPub.
Technical and Device Data
When you access the Website, certain technical information may be transmitted automatically by your browser, device, server infrastructure or security services.
This may include:
- IP address;
- approximate geographic region derived from IP address;
- browser type and version;
- operating system;
- device type;
- screen or viewport information;
- preferred language;
- referring page or website;
- requested URL;
- date and time of requests;
- HTTP headers;
- response status;
- network and connection information;
- security-related signals; and
- server and error logs.
This information may be necessary for delivering Website content, maintaining security, detecting abuse, troubleshooting technical problems and protecting the Website from malicious traffic.
Usage and Analytics Data
Where permitted by applicable law and, where required, after obtaining consent, we may collect information about how visitors interact with the Website.
This may include:
- pages viewed;
- session duration;
- navigation paths;
- approximate traffic source;
- links clicked;
- scrolling activity;
- interactions with Website elements;
- device and browser characteristics;
- general engagement information;
- referring URLs;
- campaign or referral parameters; and
- aggregated or pseudonymous analytics identifiers.
We use this information to understand Website performance, improve usability, identify technical problems and determine which content is useful to visitors.
Interaction and Session Experience Data
Where consent has been provided where required, we may use experience-measurement technologies that help us understand how users interact with Website pages.
Depending on the technology and configuration, this may include representations of:
- clicks;
- taps;
- mouse movements;
- scrolling;
- navigation;
- page layout;
- interface interactions; and
- other behavioral events.
These technologies may generate heatmaps or session replays.
They are intended to help us identify usability problems and improve Website design and functionality. They are not intended to collect passwords, payment-card information, identity documents or other sensitive form contents.
Communications and Submissions
If you contact us or submit information to the Website, we may process information that you voluntarily provide.
This may include:
- name or chosen display name;
- contact information;
- message contents;
- supporting documents;
- screenshots;
- URLs;
- information about a casino or gambling operator;
- details of a reported problem;
- complaint information;
- correspondence history; and
- technical metadata associated with the submission.
You should provide only information that is reasonably necessary for your request.
Player Reviews, Complaints and Other User Contributions
Where iGamingPub allows users to submit casino reviews, complaints, ratings, comments or similar material, we may process the information contained in those submissions.
A submission concerning a gambling operator may contain information such as:
- casino or operator name;
- date or approximate period of an incident;
- deposit or withdrawal information;
- transaction amounts;
- account-status information;
- KYC-related circumstances;
- communication with the operator; and
- supporting evidence.
Users should not submit more personal information than necessary.
In particular, unless specifically requested through a secure process, users should not submit:
- passwords;
- authentication codes;
- full payment-card numbers;
- cryptocurrency private keys or seed phrases;
- unredacted passports or national identity documents;
- complete bank statements;
- unnecessary home addresses;
- medical information; or
- other highly sensitive information unrelated to the issue being reported.
Where supporting evidence contains unnecessary personal information, users should redact it before submission.
We may also redact unnecessary personal information ourselves before storing, reviewing or publishing material.
4. Information We Do Not Normally Receive from Casinos
iGamingPub is not an online casino and does not operate gambling accounts.
Merely using iGamingPub does not normally give us access to:
- your casino password;
- your casino balance;
- your complete casino account history;
- your payment-card details;
- your bank credentials;
- your casino KYC documents;
- your complete gambling history; or
- funds deposited with or withdrawn from a casino.
If you register with a third-party casino after following a link from iGamingPub, the casino account exists between you and that third party.
5. How We Use Personal Data
We may process personal data for the following purposes:
| Purpose | Examples | Typical legal basis where GDPR applies |
|---|---|---|
| Operating the Website | Delivering pages, processing requests and maintaining technical functionality | Legitimate interests / performance of requested service |
| Website security | Abuse prevention, bot detection, attack mitigation, fraud prevention and server security | Legitimate interests / legal obligations |
| Analytics | Understanding traffic and Website usage | Consent where required |
| User-experience analysis | Heatmaps, interaction analysis and session replay | Consent where required |
| Cookie preferences | Recording and respecting privacy choices | Legal obligation / legitimate interests |
| User communications | Responding to questions, corrections or requests | Legitimate interests / steps requested by the user |
| Player complaints and reports | Reviewing information and supporting evidence | Legitimate interests |
| Editorial verification | Investigating factual claims or correcting content | Legitimate interests |
| User contributions | Reviewing, moderating and publishing eligible submissions | Consent, legitimate interests or performance of requested service, depending on circumstances |
| Affiliate measurement | Determining whether outbound referrals resulted in qualifying activity | Consent or legitimate interests where legally permitted |
| Legal compliance | Responding to lawful requests and protecting legal rights | Legal obligation / legitimate interests |
| Dispute management | Establishing, exercising or defending legal claims | Legitimate interests |
The precise legal basis depends on the activity, jurisdiction and circumstances.
6. Legitimate Interests
Where we rely on legitimate interests under applicable data protection law, those interests may include:
- operating an informational website;
- maintaining Website security;
- preventing fraud and abuse;
- protecting systems and infrastructure;
- investigating technical errors;
- responding to users;
- maintaining accurate editorial content;
- investigating complaints concerning reviewed operators;
- preventing manipulation of ratings or reviews;
- defending editorial and legal rights;
- maintaining records necessary to resolve disputes; and
- improving Website functionality without unnecessarily intruding on user privacy.
Where required, we consider whether these interests are overridden by the rights and freedoms of affected individuals.
7. Consent
Some processing activities may rely on your consent.
This particularly applies to non-essential cookies and similar technologies where consent is required by law, including certain analytics and user-experience measurement technologies.
Where processing relies on consent:
- consent may be refused;
- refusal should not prevent access to ordinary Website content unless a particular technology is technically necessary;
- consent may be changed or withdrawn; and
- withdrawing consent does not make processing that occurred lawfully before withdrawal unlawful.
Cookie and tracking preferences can be changed using the privacy or cookie controls provided on the Website where available.
8. Cookies and Similar Technologies
iGamingPub may use cookies, local storage, tags, pixels or similar technologies.
These technologies may be used for different purposes.
Strictly Necessary Technologies
Certain technologies may be required to:
- deliver Website functionality;
- maintain security;
- distribute traffic;
- remember privacy choices;
- detect malicious requests; or
- maintain technical stability.
Where applicable law permits, technologies that are strictly necessary for requested Website functionality may operate without consent.
Analytics Technologies
Analytics tools help us understand Website usage and performance.
Where consent is required, analytics technologies are activated or used only in accordance with the visitor’s consent choice.
Experience Measurement
Technologies used to create heatmaps, session replays or behavioral usage reports are treated as non-essential where required by applicable law and should be subject to the relevant consent choice.
Affiliate and Attribution Technologies
Outbound links to third-party operators or services may contain referral or campaign identifiers.
These identifiers may allow iGamingPub, an affiliate network or the relevant third party to determine that a visit or qualifying action originated from iGamingPub.
More detailed information about individual cookies, providers, purposes and available controls is provided in the Website’s Cookie Policy and consent interface.
9. Google Analytics
We may use Google Analytics 4, a web analytics service provided by Google, to understand how visitors use the Website.
Depending on configuration and consent status, Google Analytics may process information concerning:
- Website interactions;
- pages visited;
- approximate geographic information;
- browser and device characteristics;
- traffic acquisition information;
- events;
- session information; and
- analytics identifiers.
Google Analytics data is used to produce statistical and performance information about Website usage.
We do not intentionally send information such as names, email addresses, passwords, payment information or identity-document numbers to Google Analytics.
Where required by law, Google Analytics is subject to the Website’s consent mechanism.
Google may process information according to Google’s own terms, privacy documentation and data-processing arrangements.
10. Google Tag Manager
We may use Google Tag Manager to manage Website tags and integrations.
Google Tag Manager primarily functions as a tag-management system that allows Website technologies to be deployed and controlled.
The privacy impact of a tag depends principally on the service activated through it.
For example, a Google Analytics tag may process analytics data, while another tag may perform a different function.
Where a deployed tag requires consent, its activation should follow the relevant consent preference.
Google states that Tag Manager may process limited diagnostic and standard HTTP log information in connection with operation of the service.
11. Microsoft Clarity
We may use Microsoft Clarity to better understand how users interact with iGamingPub.
Clarity may provide:
- heatmaps;
- session replays;
- click information;
- scroll information;
- navigation information; and
- aggregated interaction statistics.
A Clarity session replay is a reconstruction of Website interactions rather than a conventional video recording of a visitor.
We use this information to identify usability issues, understand interaction with Website components and improve Website design.
Where applicable law requires consent for this type of measurement, Clarity is subject to the relevant consent preference.
Website elements containing sensitive or private information should be excluded or appropriately masked from session-replay collection.
Microsoft may process data according to its own privacy terms and applicable data-processing arrangements.
12. Cloudflare and Website Security
iGamingPub may use Cloudflare for services including:
- content delivery;
- DNS;
- network security;
- traffic management;
- performance optimization;
- mitigation of malicious traffic; and
- protection against denial-of-service attacks and other security threats.
In providing these services, Cloudflare may process technical information such as IP addresses, HTTP request information, device or network characteristics and security signals.
Some of this processing is necessary for securely delivering the Website and may occur independently of optional analytics consent.
Cloudflare processes relevant information according to its contractual arrangements and privacy documentation.
13. Hosting and Infrastructure Providers
The Website relies on hosting, server, database, backup and infrastructure providers.
These providers may process information technically necessary to host and secure the Website, including:
- server logs;
- IP addresses;
- database information;
- backup data; and
- technical request information.
Such providers are permitted to process data only for legitimate service, security, legal or infrastructure purposes, subject to applicable contractual and legal requirements.
14. Affiliate Links and Referral Tracking
Some links on iGamingPub may be affiliate links.
When you follow an affiliate link, the destination URL may contain an identifier showing that the referral originated from iGamingPub.
The receiving operator or affiliate network may process information such as:
- referral identifier;
- click timestamp;
- destination;
- browser or device information;
- IP or network information; and
- subsequent conversion or attribution events.
Where a qualifying event occurs, iGamingPub may receive attribution information indicating that a referral produced a registration, deposit or other qualifying action.
The information we receive from an affiliate partner will depend on that partner’s system and contractual arrangements.
iGamingPub does not need your casino password, complete payment information or KYC documents to receive ordinary affiliate attribution information.
Once you leave iGamingPub, the privacy practices of the destination website are governed by that third party.
15. External Links
The Website contains links to third-party websites.
Clicking an external link may disclose ordinary technical information to the destination website, including the fact that your browser requested the destination page and, depending on browser settings and link configuration, referral information.
Third-party websites operate independently from iGamingPub.
We do not control their privacy practices and encourage users to review their privacy policies before submitting personal information.
16. Sharing of Personal Data
We do not disclose personal data indiscriminately.
Information may be made available to the following categories of recipients where reasonably necessary:
- hosting and infrastructure providers;
- content-delivery and security providers;
- analytics providers;
- user-experience measurement providers;
- technical service providers;
- professional advisers;
- affiliate or attribution partners;
- regulators or public authorities where legally required;
- courts and dispute-resolution bodies;
- parties involved in protecting or enforcing legal rights; and
- potential successors in the event of a legitimate business reorganization, acquisition or transfer.
Service providers may process information only within the scope of their function and applicable contractual arrangements.
17. No Sale of Personal Information for Money
iGamingPub does not operate a business model based on selling visitor identity databases for monetary consideration.
However, privacy laws in some jurisdictions use broader definitions of terms such as “sale”, “sharing” or “targeted advertising”.
Under certain US state privacy laws, some disclosures involving analytics, advertising or cross-site technologies may potentially fall within those broader definitions even when no personal-data database is literally sold.
Where such laws apply, relevant choices or opt-out mechanisms will be provided where required.
18. International Data Transfers
Some providers used to operate the Website are international companies and may process information in countries outside the European Economic Area, United Kingdom or the visitor’s home jurisdiction.
Where data protection law requires safeguards for an international transfer, transfers may rely on mechanisms such as:
- an adequacy decision;
- approved standard contractual clauses;
- contractual data-protection safeguards;
- an applicable recognized data-transfer framework; or
- another mechanism permitted by applicable law.
The particular transfer mechanism may depend on the provider, destination country and current legal framework.
19. Data Retention
We do not intend to retain identifiable personal data indefinitely.
Retention depends on the type of information and the purpose for which it is processed.
Factors used to determine an appropriate retention period include:
- the period for which information remains necessary for the original purpose;
- Website security requirements;
- applicable technical retention settings;
- whether a user submission remains published;
- the need to maintain evidence relating to an editorial claim or complaint;
- contractual obligations;
- applicable limitation periods;
- legal or regulatory requirements;
- the need to establish, exercise or defend legal claims; and
- whether information can instead be anonymized or aggregated.
Technical providers may maintain their own retention schedules subject to their terms and configuration.
Analytics information may also be converted into aggregated statistics that no longer directly identify an individual and may be retained for longer periods.
Where consent is withdrawn, this does not necessarily require deletion of information that must lawfully be retained for another valid purpose.
20. Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures intended to protect personal data against:
- unauthorized access;
- unlawful disclosure;
- alteration;
- accidental loss;
- destruction;
- misuse; and
- malicious attacks.
Measures may include access controls, encrypted connections, security monitoring, infrastructure protection, backups and traffic filtering.
No internet-connected system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
Users should therefore avoid transmitting unnecessary sensitive information through ordinary Website forms.
21. Gambling-Related Information
Because iGamingPub covers gambling services, information submitted in a complaint or player review may reveal that an individual interacted with a gambling operator.
We treat such information with appropriate caution.
Visitors should not provide detailed gambling history or financial information unless it is relevant and necessary to a legitimate submission.
Publication of a user review should generally avoid exposing unnecessary identifying information about the reviewer.
22. Public User Contributions
If you intentionally submit material for public publication, certain information may become visible to other Website visitors.
This may include, depending on the feature:
- display name;
- rating;
- review text;
- comment;
- date of publication; and
- information intentionally included in the submission.
Information intended for public publication should not contain private details that you do not want others to see.
We may moderate or redact submissions to protect privacy, prevent abuse or comply with applicable law.
23. Editorial Investigations and Corrections
If a user, casino operator, regulator or other party submits evidence concerning published content, we may process that information for editorial verification.
Relevant records may be retained where necessary to:
- verify published facts;
- document the basis for editorial decisions;
- evaluate complaints;
- investigate licensing or ownership information;
- process correction requests;
- defend publication decisions; or
- resolve disputes.
The lawful basis will normally be our legitimate interest in maintaining accurate editorial content and protecting legal and editorial rights, subject to applicable law.
24. Legal Requests and Protection of Rights
We may preserve or disclose information where reasonably necessary to:
- comply with applicable law;
- respond to a legally valid request;
- comply with a court order;
- cooperate with competent authorities;
- investigate fraud or abuse;
- protect Website security;
- protect users or third parties;
- establish or defend legal claims; or
- enforce our Terms and Conditions.
We do not voluntarily provide personal data to unrelated third parties merely because they request it.
25. Your Rights Under the GDPR and Similar Laws
Where the General Data Protection Regulation or comparable legislation applies, you may have rights including:
- Right of access: obtain confirmation of whether we process your personal data and receive a copy where applicable.
- Right to rectification: request correction of inaccurate personal data.
- Right to erasure: request deletion of personal data in circumstances provided by law.
- Right to restriction: request that processing be limited in certain circumstances.
- Right to object: object to processing based on legitimate interests in circumstances provided by law.
- Right to data portability: receive certain information in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format where the legal requirements are met.
- Right to withdraw consent: withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.
- Right to complain: submit a complaint to a competent data-protection supervisory authority.
These rights are not absolute.
For example, we may need to retain certain information where required by law or where necessary to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.
26. Exercising Privacy Rights
Privacy requests may be submitted using the contact method available on the Website.
A request should clearly identify:
- the right being exercised;
- the information or processing concerned; and
- sufficient information for us to identify the relevant data.
We may request reasonable verification where necessary to prevent personal information from being disclosed or deleted at the request of an unauthorized person.
We will not request more information than reasonably necessary for verification.
Requests will be handled within the timeframe required by applicable law.
27. Supervisory Authority
Individuals in the European Economic Area have the right to lodge a complaint with a competent data-protection supervisory authority.
Where Spanish data-protection law applies, the competent authority may include the Agencia Española de Protección de Datos (AEPD).
You may generally also approach the supervisory authority in the EU or EEA country where you live, work or believe an infringement occurred.
28. United Kingdom Privacy Rights
Where UK data-protection law applies, individuals may have equivalent rights under the UK GDPR and Data Protection Act 2018.
Complaints may be submitted to the United Kingdom’s Information Commissioner’s Office where it is the competent supervisory authority.
29. United States Privacy Rights
Residents of certain US states may have additional privacy rights where applicable law applies to iGamingPub.
Depending on the jurisdiction and applicable thresholds, these may include rights to:
- know what personal information is collected;
- obtain access to certain personal information;
- request correction;
- request deletion;
- obtain a portable copy of certain information;
- opt out of certain sales or sharing;
- opt out of targeted advertising;
- limit certain uses of sensitive personal information; and
- appeal certain privacy decisions.
The availability and scope of these rights depend on applicable law.
We will not discriminate against users for legitimately exercising applicable privacy rights.
30. Children and Minors
iGamingPub contains gambling-related content and is intended for adults.
The Website is not intended for children.
We do not knowingly seek to collect personal data from persons under 18 through gambling-related Website features.
If we become aware that personal data relating to a child has been collected in circumstances where it should not have been, we may delete or restrict that information as appropriate.
Parents or legal guardians who believe that a child has submitted personal information may contact us through the Website.
31. Automated Decision-Making
iGamingPub does not use visitor personal data to make solely automated decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects on individual visitors.
Analytics systems may automatically categorize traffic or generate statistical insights, but those processes are intended for measurement, security or Website improvement rather than making legally significant decisions about individuals.
32. Do Not Track and Browser Privacy Features
Browsers and devices may offer privacy controls, including cookie blocking and similar signals.
The technical effect of these controls varies between browsers, providers and Website technologies.
Where applicable law requires recognition of a particular legally valid opt-out mechanism, we aim to comply with that requirement.
Users may also manage optional Website technologies through the consent controls made available on iGamingPub.
33. Changes to Providers or Website Features
Website infrastructure and functionality may change over time.
We may add, replace or remove analytics providers, security systems, hosting providers, affiliate technologies or other services.
Where such a change materially affects how personal data is processed, this Privacy Policy or the relevant Cookie Policy will be updated as appropriate.
34. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect:
- changes to Website functionality;
- changes to data-processing practices;
- new service providers;
- regulatory developments;
- legal requirements; or
- security or operational changes.
The revision date at the top of this page indicates when the Policy was most recently updated.
Where required by law, material changes may be communicated using additional notice or renewed consent.
35. Contact
Questions about this Privacy Policy, requests concerning personal data and privacy-related complaints may be submitted through the contact method made available on iGamingPub.
For security reasons, users should not include passwords, complete payment-card information, cryptocurrency credentials or unnecessary identity documents in ordinary privacy correspondence.
