Privacy Policy

Effective date: 1 September 2025

WorstCasino (“we”, “us”, “our”) operates worstcasino.com (the “Site”). We are a content and comparison website about online casinos. We do not operate gambling services.

If you do not agree with this Policy, please do not use the Site.

Contact: privacy@worstcasino.com

1) Who we are (Controller)

For the purposes of EU/EEA and UK data protection law, the controller is:

WorstCasino
Email: privacy@worstcasino.com

We use third-party processors (e.g., hosting, analytics, security/CDN) under contracts that restrict their use of data.

2) What we collect (no accounts, no forms)

  • We do not offer accounts, contact forms, comments, or newsletters.

  • We do not collect your name, email, or similar identifiers via the Site.

We do collect some information automatically when you browse the Site:

  • Technical/usage data: IP address, user-agent, device type, pages viewed, time on page, referrer, and similar diagnostic data.

  • Cookies and similar technologies: essential cookies for security and functionality; optional analytics and affiliate tracking cookies/pixels (see Cookies).

If you voluntarily email us, we will process your email and any data you provide only to respond, then retain it briefly as needed (see Retention).

We do not intentionally collect special category data.

3) Why we use the data (Purposes & legal bases)

  • Provide, secure and maintain the Site (e.g., load balancing, bot/abuse prevention, uptime).

    • Legal bases: Legitimate interests; legal obligation where applicable.

  • Analytics and performance measurement (understanding which pages are used, improving layout/content).

    • Legal bases: Consent (for non-essential cookies/analytics); legitimate interests where consent is not required.

  • Affiliate attribution (when you click outbound partner links, pseudonymous identifiers may be used so partners know a visit came from us).

    • Legal bases: Legitimate interests; consent where required by local law.

  • Compliance and enforcement (responding to lawful requests, enforcing terms, preventing fraud/abuse).

    • Legal bases: Legal obligation; legitimate interests.

We do not conduct automated decision-making that produces legal or similarly significant effects.

4) Cookies & tracking

We use:

  • Essential cookies (security, load balancing, basic preferences).

  • Analytics cookies/SDKs (to understand traffic in aggregate).

  • Affiliate tracking (when you click “Get Bonus” or similar, the destination site/affiliate network may set cookies or use server-side tracking to attribute your visit).

Your choices

  • Where required, a consent banner will let you accept/decline non-essential cookies.

  • You can also block/delete cookies in your browser settings.

  • Blocking some cookies may affect functionality.

Third-party cookies: Our partners (e.g., analytics providers, affiliate networks, casino sites you visit after leaving us) have their own policies that govern how they use cookies and data.

5) Who we share information with

  • Service providers (hosting, CDN/security, analytics) under data-processing terms.

  • Affiliate/advertising partners (pseudonymous click/attribution data when you follow outbound links).

  • Authorities or buyers (only if required by law, to protect rights, or during a merger/acquisition).

We do not sell personal data and we do not share it for direct marketing.

6) International transfers

Your data may be processed outside your country (e.g., EU/EEA, UK, US). Where required, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses and provider certifications.

7) Retention

  • Server and security logs: typically ~90 days (longer if needed to investigate incidents).

  • Analytics: retained in aggregate or pseudonymous form per provider defaults.

  • Affiliate attribution: retained by partners per their policies; we keep only minimal data necessary for reconciliation.

  • Emails you send us: kept only as long as needed to respond and for short-term archiving, then deleted.

8) Security

We use reasonable technical and organisational measures (encrypted transport, hardened hosting, access controls). No system is 100% secure.

9) External links

When you leave our Site (e.g., to a casino or affiliate network), their privacy and cookie policies apply.

10) Children

This Site is for adults 18+ (or higher legal gambling age in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect data from minors. If you believe a minor has provided data, contact us to request deletion.

11) Your rights (EU/EEA & UK)

You may have the right to access, rectify, erase, restrict, object to processing, and data portability, and to withdraw consent at any time (without affecting previous lawful processing).

To exercise these rights, email privacy@worstcasino.com. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority (e.g., in the EEA or the ICO in the UK).

We may need to verify your identity before acting on a request.

12) Changes to this Policy

We may update this Policy from time to time. The “Effective date” above shows the latest version. Material changes will be highlighted on the Site.
