Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains, in plain and reasonably complete terms, what this Site does with your personal information when you visit to read about Gates of Olympus by Pragmatic Play, or to compare the casinos offering it – what we collect, why, who might see it, how long we keep it, and the choices available to you.
// Who We Are
This page explains, in plain and reasonably complete terms, what this website (the “Site”, “we”, “us”) does with your personal information when you visit to read about Gates of Olympus by Pragmatic Play, or to compare the casinos offering it. What gets collected, why, who might see it, how long it sticks around, and the choices available to you – all of it is addressed below.
We act as data controller for everything gathered through this Site – the party deciding what gets collected and why. Any question or rights request goes through the contact form, and we commit to a response within 30 days.
We have genuinely tried to write something worth reading rather than dense filler designed to be skipped. We have organized it in roughly the order most people actually want answers to: what gets collected, why, who sees it, and what your options are. If anything stays unclear after reading, the contact details near the bottom are there precisely so we can clarify.
// Scope of This Policy
Using the Site means accepting this approach. If you would rather not, the only option is to stop using the Site.
One important boundary worth stating clearly: this only covers our own Site. The second you click through to an actual casino to play Gates of Olympus, their privacy policy takes over completely, and we have zero say in what that looks like.
For any question, concern, or formal request relating to your personal data, the contact form on this Site is the correct channel, and we commit to a substantive response within 30 calendar days.
// What Information We Collect
There are two distinct streams here: what you choose to share, and what gets logged without you doing anything.
What You Choose to Share
A contact form or newsletter signup means handing over your name, email, and whatever you have written.
What Gets Logged Automatically
Standard web tech tracks a few things automatically every time you visit:
- Your IP address and the general area it points to.
- Browser and device details.
- Which Gates of Olympus pages and casino comparisons you read, and how long you stayed.
- How you got here – search, another site, or a direct link.
- The exact timestamp of your visit.
None of that names you outright. Combined with other details, though, it can sometimes count as personal data legally, so we treat it carefully regardless. We also try not to over-collect: you do not need an account to read anything here, and we will not ask for your name if your email is all we actually need to reply.
// Legal Basis for Processing
Each purpose is matched to a legal basis where the law requires us to identify one.
Legitimate Interest
Running and improving the Site – keeping it working, securing it, and working out which Gates of Olympus content actually helps readers – rests on legitimate interest.
Consent
Non-essential cookies and newsletter emails rest on consent, withdrawable at any time without affecting processing carried out beforehand.
Contractual Necessity
Replying to something you have sent us through the contact form rests on contractual necessity.
Legal Obligation
And anything the law requires of us, we do because it is required.
// How We Use Information
We use the data we collect for the following specific purposes:
- Running the Site properly across the range of devices people use.
- Working out which Gates of Olympus content actually helps readers.
- Replying to messages people send us through the contact form.
- Sending newsletters to people who signed up.
- Catching abuse of the Site.
- Crediting referrals when someone registers at a casino we have linked.
- Meeting legal obligations that genuinely apply to us.
That is the complete list – nothing automated is making decisions about you behind the scenes. On the newsletter specifically: if you have opted in, your email gets used only for that. We do not hand it to third parties for their own marketing, we do not buy or borrow third-party contact lists, and every email includes an unsubscribe link we act on the moment you click it.
// Affiliate Links and Third-Party Platforms
This Site contains affiliate links to casino platforms offering Gates of Olympus. When you follow one, affiliate cookies log only a click and a timestamp – that is the whole mechanism – so a qualified referral can be confirmed and any commission owed to us processed. Nothing more, and nothing that identifies you personally.
Any data shared with affiliate networks or casino operators is limited strictly to the click-attribution data required to confirm and pay commissions. We do not receive personal identifying information about you back from those platforms, and selling your data is not something we do, ever.
Each casino platform reached through our links keeps its own separate privacy policy, which takes over entirely the moment you arrive there, regardless of anything stated in this document.
// Cookies and Analytics Services
We use cookies to keep the Site working, to see how our Gates of Olympus content gets used, and to track when a click leads to a casino signup. Essential ones cannot be turned off. Analytics cookies – principally Google Analytics – show aggregated, pseudonymous patterns, nothing personal. Affiliate cookies log a click and a timestamp – that is the whole mechanism.
A fair chunk of our analytics work goes into figuring out which Gates of Olympus topics – the tumble feature, the multipliers, the free spins, the casino comparisons – people actually find worth reading, so future content can be prioritized. That is all aggregate data across the full visitor base, never tied to one specific visitor.
Worth being upfront about: we also do not try to track you through device fingerprinting if you have cleared or blocked your cookies. We stick to ordinary cookie-based tracking that respects your existing choices. Any processor we engage is bound by a written agreement requiring it to protect your data to a standard at least as strong as what we promise here. Our separate Cookie Policy has the complete breakdown, and your preferences can be adjusted any time through your browser or the consent tool on this Site.
// Data Sharing
Selling your data is not something we do, ever. Data is shared only in the following specific situations:
- Analytics companies such as Google Analytics, under their own rules, seeing only aggregated numbers, which may involve processing outside your country.
- Casino affiliate systems, just enough to confirm a referral and pay us.
- Regulators, courts, or law enforcement, if legally required to hand something over.
- Whoever takes over the Site, if that ever happens, under the same privacy standards.
Any outside processor we use is bound by a written agreement requiring it to protect your data to a standard at least as strong as what we promise here. We genuinely do not have commercial relationships with data brokers or advertising networks of any kind, and nothing collected through this Site is ever used to build advertising profiles for use elsewhere.
// Data Retention
We keep each category of data only for as long as it is genuinely needed:
- Analytics: roughly 26 months.
- Contact messages: kept until resolved, then gone, unless we are legally obligated to keep them.
- Newsletter info: retained until you unsubscribe.
- Referral tracking: under 90 days, just long enough to confirm a commission.
Once something has served its purpose, we delete it or strip out anything identifying. We review these specific timeframes periodically and adjust them if needed, though any adjustment would only ever shorten retention, never extend it beyond what is genuinely necessary for the purpose involved.
// Your Rights
Depending on where you live, you might be able to:
- See what we hold about you.
- Fix anything wrong or incomplete.
- Ask for deletion where there is no longer a valid reason for us to keep it.
- Limit how we use it in specific circumstances.
- Get a portable copy in a commonly used electronic format.
- Object to certain uses, or pull back consent, any time.
Send a request through the contact form, naming which right you are after – you do not need to justify why. We will confirm it is really you, then respond within 30 days, usually free, though we reserve the right to charge a reasonable fee for manifestly unfounded or excessive requests.
In the EU or UK, you can also escalate an unresolved concern to your national data protection authority – the ICO (ico.org.uk) covers the UK.
// Children’s Privacy
This Site, given what it covers, is not for anyone under 18, and we are not knowingly collecting data from minors under any circumstances.
Spot something that suggests otherwise? Tell us and we will remove it fast. This matters to us beyond formality – real-money gambling content has no place in a younger reader’s life regardless of how it is presented around the edges.
// Data Security
We use sensible technical and organizational safeguards to protect what we hold, including limiting who internally can see it, and handling anything submitted through our contact form with appropriate care.
No online system is completely bulletproof, and we cannot offer an absolute guarantee for data sent to us electronically, but once your data reaches us, we handle it carefully. We do not take this lightly given what this Site covers – real-money gambling content just is not something we treat casually, including how we handle the data of anyone reading about it.
Worried something has gone wrong? Tell us right away through the contact form.
// International Data Transfers
Some tools we rely on, especially in analytics, are based elsewhere and may process data outside your country. When that is the case, we lean on recognized safeguards – typically Standard Contractual Clauses or an equivalent legally recognized mechanism – to keep things protected to a comparable standard regardless of where the processing physically happens.
We do not personally pick the exact server location used by every provider, but we do choose providers who maintain credible, publicly available commitments to data protection standards that align with our own obligations under this Policy.
// Links to Other Websites
This Policy stops mattering the moment you land on a casino platform reached through a link here. From there, it is entirely their privacy policy in charge, regardless of anything stated in this document.
We are not responsible for the content, privacy practices, or security measures of any third-party website, whether it is linked from this Site or reached through an affiliate referral.
// Changes to This Privacy Policy
We will update this periodically as our practices, the wider regulatory environment, or the technology we depend on continues to evolve, and post the new version here with a fresh date.
Keep using the Site afterward, and you are accepting whatever changed.
// Contact
Any privacy question, big or small, goes through the contact form available on this Site.
We have tried to write this in language that actually makes sense – if anything is still unclear, just ask. We aim to respond substantively to every legitimate inquiry, rather than treating it as a purely procedural obligation.
