Privacy Policy

1. Information we collect

Information you provide

• Contact details you submit through our Contact page or email (name, email address, and the content of your message).

Information collected automatically

• Standard web log data (IP address, browser type, device type, pages viewed, referring page, and timestamps), typically collected via our hosting provider and analytics tools.
• Cookies and similar technologies used for analytics and for tracking outbound affiliate link clicks (see Section 3).

We do not require account creation to read the Site, and we do not knowingly collect financial account information, payment card details, or casino login credentials — those are handled entirely by the third-party operators you visit through our links.

2. How we use information

• To operate, maintain, and improve the Site and its content.
• To understand aggregate traffic patterns (which guides are useful, which links are followed).
• To respond to messages sent through our Contact page.
• To measure the performance of affiliate links, which is how the Site is funded (see our Affiliate Disclosure).

We do not sell personal information to third parties.

3. Cookies and affiliate tracking

When you click a casino or sportsbook link on this Site, the destination operator's affiliate tracking system may place a cookie or use a similar identifier in the URL (for example, the s= and a= parameters you may notice in outbound links) so that operator can attribute your signup to Gambling101. That cookie is set and controlled by the destination operator, not by us, and is governed by their privacy policy once you land on their site.

We may also use standard analytics cookies to understand overall Site usage. You can block or delete cookies through your browser settings at any time; doing so will not prevent you from reading the Site, though some third-party sites you visit afterward may behave differently.

4. Third-party links

Gambling101 links to third-party casinos, sportsbooks, and other resources. We are not responsible for the privacy practices, content, or security of those third-party sites. Review the privacy policy of any operator before providing personal or financial information to them.

5. Data retention

We retain contact messages only as long as needed to respond to your inquiry and for a reasonable period afterward for record-keeping, then delete them. Aggregate analytics data may be retained longer since it is not tied to an identifiable individual.

6. Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict use of your personal information (for example under GDPR in the EU/UK or CCPA/CPRA in California). To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details on our Contact page and we will respond within a reasonable time.

7. Children's privacy

Gambling101 is intended for adults of legal gambling age in their jurisdiction (19+ or the applicable local minimum). We do not knowingly collect personal information from minors.

8. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. Material changes will be reflected here.
