Privacy Policy
This Privacy Statement explains how this website ("Site", "we", "us", "our") collects, uses, and protects your personal data when you visit to read about Gates of Olympus by Pragmatic Play, or to compare the casino operators that offer it.
Using this Site means you accept the approach described here. This Statement applies only to what happens on this Site directly. The moment you follow a link to a casino platform, that operator’s own privacy policy takes over entirely.
We have written this to be actually readable rather than assembling defensive boilerplate nobody opens. If anything is unclear after reading it, the contact details in the final section exist precisely so you can ask us to clarify.
// Contents
// Data Controller
This Privacy Statement explains, in genuinely useful detail, how this website (“Site”, “we”, “us”) collects, uses, and protects your personal data when you visit to read about Gates of Olympus by Pragmatic Play, or to compare the casino operators that offer it. It covers what we gather, the legal basis for each type of processing, who might see your data, how long we retain it, and the rights you hold over it.
Using this Site means you accept the approach described here. One important boundary: this Statement applies only to what happens on this Site directly. The moment you follow a link to a casino platform, that operator’s own privacy policy takes over entirely, and we have no influence over it.
The operator of this Site is the data controller for everything processed here – the party that decides what gets collected and why. For any question, concern, or rights request, use the contact form on this Site. We commit to a substantive response within 30 calendar days.
// What Information We Collect
What you share directly. A contact form submission or newsletter signup involves sharing your name, email address, and whatever message you choose to send.
What gets logged automatically. Standard web technology records certain details on every visit:
- Your IP address and the general region it corresponds to.
- Browser type, version, and operating system.
- Device category – desktop, tablet, or phone.
- Which Gates of Olympus pages and casino comparison sections you visit, and for how long.
- The referring page, search query, or external link that brought you here.
- Date and time of each visit.
Most of this does not identify you by name. In combination with other signals, some of it can qualify as personal data under applicable law, and we handle it accordingly. We work to collect only what each feature genuinely requires: reading our Gates of Olympus content never requires creating an account, and we do not ask for your name where an email address answers the question.
// How We Use Your Information
- Running the Site reliably across devices and browsers.
- Understanding which Gates of Olympus guides and casino comparisons readers actually find useful, so we can improve them.
- Responding to inquiries submitted through our contact form.
- Sending newsletter updates to subscribers who have actively opted in.
- Detecting and preventing fraudulent or abusive use of the Site.
- Crediting affiliate referrals when a visitor registers at a partner casino.
- Meeting any legal obligations that apply to us.
None of this involves automated decision-making that carries legal or similarly significant consequences for you. A meaningful portion of our analytics specifically looks at which aspects of our Gates of Olympus coverage readers engage with most – the tumble mechanic, the multiplier symbols, the free spins structure – to guide content development. This is done in aggregate across all visitors, never as an individual profile.
// Legal Basis for Processing
Legitimate interest covers running, securing, and improving the Site and understanding how readers engage with our Gates of Olympus content.
Consent covers non-essential cookies and newsletter communications. Both are withdrawable at any time without affecting prior processing.
Contractual necessity covers responding to a request you have actively submitted.
Legal obligation covers anything required by applicable law or a valid legal request.
Newsletter and Outbound Emails
If you have subscribed to our newsletter, your email is used for that purpose only. We do not pass it to third parties for their own marketing, and we do not use purchased or borrowed contact lists. Every message we send includes a clear unsubscribe mechanism, honored immediately upon request. Should we introduce any new type of outbound communication that was not described at the point of signup, we will ask again before sending.
// Cookies and Tracking Technologies
This Site uses cookies to keep it functional, to understand how our Gates of Olympus content is used, and to track referrals to casino platforms. Strictly necessary cookies cannot be disabled. Analytics cookies, primarily via Google Analytics, produce aggregated usage data. Affiliate tracking cookies record a click event and timestamp when you follow a link to a partner casino – nothing identifying. Complete detail is in our separate Cookie Policy, and preferences can be managed through our on-site consent tool or your browser settings.
// Third-Party Services and Data Sharing
We do not sell personal data. Sharing occurs only in the following specific situations:
- Analytics providers such as Google Analytics, who process aggregated usage data under their own data processing agreements.
- Affiliate networks or casino operators offering Gates of Olympus, limited strictly to click-attribution data needed to verify commissions owed to us.
- Courts, regulators, or law enforcement bodies where a valid legal request requires disclosure.
- A successor entity, should this Site be sold or transferred, under terms that preserve these protections.
Any third-party processor we engage operates under a written data processing agreement requiring them to protect personal data to a standard at least as strong as the commitments we make here.
Data Processing Agreements
Any third-party processor we engage is bound by a formal data processing agreement specifying the purpose for which they may use data, the security measures they must apply, and the requirement to notify us promptly of any incident that might affect the data they are processing on our behalf. We review these agreements periodically and do not continue working with providers that cannot demonstrate adequate compliance.
// International Data Transfers
Some providers we rely on, particularly in the analytics space, are based outside your country of residence and may process data there. Where this occurs, we rely on Standard Contractual Clauses or an equivalent legally recognized mechanism to maintain an adequate level of protection regardless of the jurisdiction in which processing takes place.
// Data Retention
- Analytics data via cookies: typically up to 26 months.
- Contact form submissions: retained while the inquiry is active, then deleted unless legal obligation requires longer retention.
- Newsletter subscriber data: retained until you unsubscribe.
- Affiliate referral data: retained only long enough to confirm a commission, generally under 90 days.
Once any data has served its purpose, we delete it securely or anonymize it to a standard that prevents it being linked back to an identifiable individual.
If anything you have shared with us, such as a contact email address, becomes outdated, simply send us an update through the contact form and we will correct it promptly. We do not independently verify what you submit, so accuracy is your responsibility if you want a reply to reach you.
Data Minimization
We actively try to collect no more than each purpose genuinely requires. We do not create persistent individual profiles of Site visitors, do not combine data from different sources to infer personal attributes, and do not employ device fingerprinting techniques designed to track you across sessions when cookies are cleared or blocked.
// Your Rights
Depending on the law applicable to you, you may be entitled to access what we hold about you, correct inaccuracies, request deletion where continued retention is no longer justified, restrict certain processing, receive your data in portable form, and object to uses based on legitimate interest or withdraw consent at any time.
Submit a rights request through our contact form, identifying which right you are invoking. We will verify your identity and respond within 30 days, generally at no cost. If you are in the EU or UK, you may also escalate unresolved concerns to your national supervisory authority – in the UK, the Information Commissioner’s Office at ico.org.uk.
// Children's Privacy
This Site is not directed at anyone under 18. We do not knowingly collect personal data from minors. Given the high-volatility, real-money subject matter of this content, we take this restriction seriously rather than treating it as a disclaimer. If you have reason to believe a minor has submitted data here, contact us and we will remove it without delay.
// Security
We apply reasonable technical and organizational security measures proportionate to the risk, including restricting internal access to personal data. No internet-based system is completely risk-free, but once data reaches us we apply appropriate safeguards. We also do not employ device fingerprinting techniques that would track you across sessions once you have cleared or blocked your cookies; our analytics rely on standard cookie-based identifiers that respect whatever preference you have set.
// Links to Other Sites
This Statement governs only what happens on this Site. Casino platforms you reach through our links operate under their own separate privacy policies from the moment you arrive there.
// Changes to This Privacy Policy
We revise this Statement periodically and publish the current version here with a new date. Continued use of the Site after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised Statement.
