Privacy Policy
Last updated: May 1, 2026. This Privacy Policy explains how legitimateonlinegamblingsites.com (“we”, “us”, “the site”) handles information when you visit our website. We operate an informational review and comparison site about online gambling sites for a Canadian audience. We do not operate gambling accounts and we do not process deposits or withdrawals.
1. Who we are
legitimateonlinegamblingsites.com publishes editorial rankings, reviews and guides. Contact for privacy questions: [email protected].
2. Information we may collect
Information you send us. If you email us, we receive the address and content of your message, plus any details you choose to include. We use that only to respond and to keep a record of the conversation.
Technical and usage data. Like most websites, our servers and analytics tools may process:
- IP address (often truncated or aggregated), approximate region, browser type, device type and operating system;
- pages viewed, referring URL, time on page and similar interaction metrics;
- cookie or local-storage identifiers used for analytics, load balancing or remembering basic preferences.
We aim to rely on anonymous or aggregated analytics where practical. We do not ask you to create an account on this site, and we do not intentionally collect government ID, payment card numbers or casino account credentials through our forms (we do not run player accounts).
3. Cookies and similar technologies
We may use first-party and third-party cookies (or similar technologies) for:
- Essential operation — security, load distribution, basic site function;
- Analytics — understanding which pages are read (for example Matomo or similar privacy-aware tools when configured);
- Affiliate attribution — when you click an outbound “Play” / “Visit” style link, a partner network or casino may set cookies so a referral can be credited if you later register.
You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Blocking some cookies may break analytics or affiliate tracking; it will not stop you from reading our articles.
4. How we use information
We use the data above to:
- operate, secure and improve the website;
- measure content performance and fix technical issues;
- respond to emails and legal requests we are required to handle;
- attribute optional affiliate referrals when you choose to click through to a casino.
We do not sell your personal information. We do not use sensitive personal data to profile you for advertising on this site beyond ordinary analytics and affiliate tracking described here.
5. Affiliate links and third-party casinos
Our pages may contain links to third-party online gambling sites and related services. When you leave legitimateonlinegamblingsites.com, those operators (and their payment, verification and support vendors) process data under their own privacy policies and terms. We do not control their collection of identity documents, deposit history or gameplay data. Review the destination site’s privacy notice before registering or depositing.
6. Analytics and service providers
We may use hosting providers, CDN/security services, email infrastructure and analytics vendors who process technical data on our behalf under contractual or standard platform terms. Those providers may store logs in Canada, the United States, the EU or other regions depending on their infrastructure. We select tools with the goal of keeping data use limited to operating and improving this site.
7. Legal bases and Canadian privacy context
Depending on your province and applicable law (including federal PIPEDA principles and provincial private-sector privacy statutes where they apply), we process information to provide the website you requested, to pursue legitimate interests in running a secure editorial property, and where required to meet legal obligations. If you believe we hold personal information about you, you may request access or correction using the contact below, subject to legal limits.
8. Retention
Server and analytics logs are kept only as long as needed for security, debugging and aggregate reporting (typically rotating on a weeks-to-months cycle depending on the tool). Email correspondence is retained as long as needed to complete your request and maintain ordinary business records, then deleted or archived according to our internal schedule unless a longer period is required by law.
9. Children
This site discusses online gambling and is intended for adults. You must meet the legal gambling age in your province (often 18+ or 19+). We do not knowingly collect personal information from minors. If you believe a minor has contacted us, email [email protected] and we will delete the message where feasible.
10. Security
We use HTTPS/TLS for this website and standard hosting protections. No method of transmission or storage is perfectly secure; please do not email passwords or full payment card numbers to us.
11. Your choices
- Adjust cookie settings in your browser;
- Use private browsing or tracking prevention features;
- Email us to ask what personal data we hold from correspondence and to request deletion where applicable;
- Opt out of non-essential analytics if we provide a tool-specific opt-out on the site.
12. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy as our tools or legal requirements change. The “Last updated” date at the top will change when we publish a material revision. Continued use of the site after an update means you accept the revised policy for future visits.
13. Contact
Privacy requests: [email protected]. For casino-account privacy issues, contact the operator directly.
