Privacy policy and data protection

Overview

This privacy statement explains how Betplays Casino (the editorial site at https://betplays-casino-ca.com) collects, uses, stores and shares information from visitors to our editorial content about online casinos. We are an editorial guide and not a casino operator. We process personal information only to provide and improve our editorial services and to respond to reader inquiries. Our practices follow the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) and applicable provincial privacy rules.

Data collected

We collect a limited set of technical and contact information necessary for running an editorial site and communicating with readers. We do not collect financial or gambling account details for operator accounts.

• Technical data: IP address, browser and device type, operating system, referring URL, pages visited, timestamps and user agent strings recorded in server logs.
• Interaction data: clicks on pages and links on our site, including clicks to third-party operator sites and affiliate link identifiers.
• Contact data: email address and any information you provide when you use our contact form or subscribe to optional updates.
• Voluntary content: comments, feedback or survey responses you choose to submit.

Use of data

We use collected information to operate the site, deliver editorial content, respond to enquiries, and improve usability and content quality. Technical data supports site stability, security, and detection of abusive behaviour. Contact data is only used to reply to messages or to deliver optional updates you signed up for.

Click records for links to external operators are retained to manage affiliate relationships and measure referral activity. After you click through to an operator site, you leave our domain and any further collection or processing is governed by that operator’s privacy policy; we do not have access to personal data collected by the operator after the click.

Cookies

We do not use analytics or marketing cookies. The site may use minimal session or strictly necessary cookies to support basic functionality and navigation. We do not track visitors across sites for advertising purposes from this domain.

Storage and retention

We retain server logs and technical records for operational and security purposes, typically for up to 12 months. Messages sent to our contact address and newsletter subscription data are retained while needed to fulfil the request and typically for up to 24 months after the last activity, unless you request earlier deletion. Aggregated or anonymized data used for editorial analysis may be retained for a longer period for research and site improvement.

We protect stored data using reasonable administrative, technical and physical measures proportionate to the sensitivity of the information. Access to personal data is limited to staff and service providers who need it to perform editorial, technical or support functions.
