Privacy policy

Who we are

Best Licensed Casinos ("we", "us") operates the website at https://bestlicensedcasinos.com. For privacy questions or requests, email hello@bestlicensedcasinos.com with "Privacy" in the subject line.

What we collect

Best Licensed Casinos is a publishing website. We do not have public user accounts, comment systems or newsletters. We do not collect names, email addresses, payment details or identity documents from readers.

Server logs

Our hosting provider records standard server logs (IP address, browser type, pages requested, timestamp) for security and performance. These are retained for a limited period by the hosting provider and are not used to identify individuals.

Affiliate click counts

When you follow a link to a casino through one of our redirect pages we record the casino, the page you came from and your browser type so we can see which content is useful. We do not record your IP address or anything that identifies you.

Local storage

We store a single flag in your browser's local storage when you dismiss the responsible gambling notice, so it does not reappear on every page. It contains no personal data and never leaves your device. You can clear it via your browser settings.

Analytics (if enabled)

We may use privacy-focused analytics (Plausible) or Google Analytics 4 with IP anonymisation to understand which pages are read. Where used, analytics data is aggregated and does not identify you. If Google Analytics is used, Google's own privacy policy applies to data it processes.

Cookies

Best Licensed Casinos sets no cookies for readers. Editors who log in to manage the site receive a session cookie that is essential for that purpose. If analytics are enabled, the analytics provider may set cookies as described above. Casinos you visit via our links set their own cookies under their own policies.

Affiliate links

Links to casinos pass through our redirect pages and include a tracking identifier that tells the casino you arrived from Best Licensed Casinos. This identifier does not contain personal data about you. Once you are on a casino's website, that casino's privacy policy governs any data you provide. We receive aggregated commission reports from casinos that do not identify individual players. See our affiliate disclosure.

Third-party sites

We link to casinos, regulators, support organisations and other external sites. We are not responsible for their content or privacy practices. Review their policies before providing any information.

Legal basis (GDPR / UK GDPR)

Where we process any personal data (server logs, aggregated analytics), we do so on the basis of legitimate interest in operating a secure, functional website and understanding how it is used. We do not process special category data and do not make automated decisions about you.

Your rights

Depending on your location you may have rights to access, correct, delete or restrict processing of personal data, and to object to processing or lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. Because we hold virtually no personal data, most requests will result in a confirmation that we hold nothing about you. Email us to exercise any right.

Children

This site is intended for adults aged 18 or over (or the legal gambling age in your jurisdiction, if higher). We do not knowingly collect data from minors.

International transfers

Our hosting and any analytics providers may process data outside your country. Where required, appropriate safeguards (such as standard contractual clauses) are in place through those providers.

Changes

We may update this policy. The date at the top of the page reflects the latest revision. Material changes will be highlighted here.
