This Privacy Policy describes how this website collects, uses, and protects information when you visit our pages. We are an independent editorial publication that reviews and analyzes the U.S. sweepstakes casino industry. We do not operate any sweepstakes casino, process gambling transactions, or manage player accounts. Our data practices reflect this limited scope.
Information We Collect
We collect two categories of information: data you provide voluntarily and data collected automatically when you browse the site.
Information You Provide
If you contact us through any communication channel available on this site, you may voluntarily share your name, email address, or other details relevant to your inquiry. We use this information solely to respond to your message and do not add it to any marketing database or share it with third parties.
Information Collected Automatically
When you visit this site, our servers and third-party analytics services may collect certain technical data automatically. This includes your IP address, browser type and version, operating system, referring URL, pages visited, time spent on each page, and the date and time of your visit. This data is collected through server logs and analytics tools to help us understand how visitors use the site and to maintain its technical performance.
Cookies and Tracking Technologies
This site uses cookies and similar technologies. A detailed explanation of the types of cookies we use, their purposes, and how to manage them is available in our Cookie Policy.
How We Use Your Information
We use the information described above for the following purposes: to operate and maintain the website, to analyze visitor behavior and improve content quality, to respond to inquiries and communications, to detect and prevent technical issues or abuse, and to comply with applicable legal obligations.
We do not use your information to build personal profiles for advertising purposes. We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties for their marketing use.
Third-Party Services
This site may use third-party services for analytics, content delivery, and site functionality. These services may collect information about your visit as described in their own privacy policies. Third-party services we may use include web analytics platforms, content delivery networks, and font delivery services. Each of these services operates under its own privacy policy, which governs how it processes the data it collects.
Data Sharing
We do not sell your personal information. We may share information in the following limited circumstances: with service providers who assist in operating the website, subject to confidentiality obligations; when required by law, regulation, legal process, or enforceable governmental request; and to protect the rights, property, or safety of this site, its visitors, or the public.
Data Retention
We retain automatically collected data for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, typically no longer than 26 months for analytics data. If you contact us directly, we retain your communication for as long as necessary to resolve your inquiry and for a reasonable period afterward for record-keeping purposes.
Data Security
We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect the information we collect from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Your Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have certain rights regarding your personal information. These may include the right to access the personal data we hold about you, the right to request correction of inaccurate data, the right to request deletion of your data, the right to object to or restrict certain processing activities, and the right to data portability where technically feasible.
Residents of California may have additional rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), including the right to know what personal information is collected and whether it is sold or disclosed, and the right to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information. We do not sell personal information as defined under these laws.
Residents of states with comprehensive privacy laws — including Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut, Utah, Texas, Oregon, Montana, and others that have enacted consumer data protection statutes — may exercise comparable rights as provided by their respective state laws.
