Your data and privacy

This page explains, step by step, what happens to your personal data when you use this site. We are an independent editorial team that compares online casinos for readers searching "casino online australia real money". We keep data collection small, and we say plainly where it happens.

What we collect

There are three places where data can reach us.

• The contact form. If you write to us, we receive the details you type in: usually your name, your email address and your message.
• Cookies. A cookie is a small text file that your browser stores. Some are needed for the site to work, such as remembering your choice on the cookie banner.
• Analytics. Analytics means anonymous-style statistics about visits: which pages are opened, from what kind of device, and roughly how readers arrive. We use them to see which guides help and which do not.

Why we use it

Contact form details are used to read and answer your message, nothing more. Cookie and analytics data help us keep the pages working and improve the reviews and guides. We do not sell personal data, and we do not use your message to build advertising profiles.

How long we keep it

We keep a message and your email address only for as long as it takes to deal with your question and for any follow-up that naturally comes from it. After that we delete it. Cookies last either for your browser session or until you remove them yourself; you can clear them in your browser settings at any time. Analytics records are kept only as long as they are useful for understanding how the site is used.

Links to casinos

Some links on this site lead to casino operators and may be affiliate links, as explained on the Terms of use and About us pages. Once you click through, you leave this site. The casino then has its own cookies and its own privacy policy, and we do not control them. Please read that policy before you register anywhere. None of the casinos we review is licensed by an Australian state or territory regulator or by ACMA, so Australian consumer protections may not apply to you there.

Your rights

Where the GDPR applies to you, for example if you read us from the European Economic Area, you have these rights:

1. to ask what data we hold about you and receive a copy;
2. to have wrong data corrected;
3. to have your data deleted;
4. to limit or object to how it is used;
5. to withdraw consent you gave earlier, without affecting what was done before;
6. to complain to your local data protection authority.

Readers in Australia can also ask us what we hold and to delete it, and we will treat such requests in the same way.

How to make a request

Use the contact form on the Contact page and say which right you want to use. We do not publish a postal address or phone line, so the form is the only channel. We may ask you to confirm that the request comes from the email address you wrote from.

Age and care

This site is for adults aged 18 or over. If gambling is causing you worry, Gambling Help Online is free on 1800 858 858, and BetStop is the national self-exclusion register.
