This Privacy Policy explains how this website (referred to as “we,” “us,” or “the Site”) collects, uses, stores, and protects information when you visit our Pin-Up Casino Canada review and information pages. We are an independent affiliate publisher: we review and compare online gambling brands available to Canadian players. We are not the operator of Pin-Up Casino, and we do not process gambling accounts, deposits, or wagers. Your personal data matters to us, and this policy describes exactly what we do with the limited information we handle.
By using the Site, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with it, please stop using the Site. This policy should be read together with our Cookie Policy and our Terms of Use.
Information We Collect
We keep data collection to a minimum. The information we handle falls into three categories:
- Analytics data. When you browse the Site, we collect aggregated, non-identifying information about how visitors use our pages, such as the pages viewed, approximate region, device type, browser, referring source, and time spent on the Site. We use privacy-friendly analytics designed to measure traffic trends without building detailed personal profiles.
- Cookies and similar technologies. Small text files may be stored on your device to help the Site function, remember preferences, and understand overall usage. You can control cookies through your browser and our consent tools. See the “Cookies” section below and our Cookie Policy for details.
- Contact form data. If you contact us through a feedback or contact form, we collect the email address you provide and the content of your message. This information is used only to read and respond to your enquiry.
We do not knowingly collect financial details, government identifiers, or gambling account credentials. Please do not send us such information.
How We Use Your Information
We use the information described above for the following purposes:
- To operate, maintain, and improve the Site and its content.
- To understand which reviews, guides, and comparisons are most useful to visitors.
- To respond to messages you send us through the contact form.
- To detect, prevent, and address technical issues, misuse, or security threats.
- To comply with applicable legal obligations.
We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use the data you submit through the contact form to send you unsolicited marketing.
Legal Basis for Processing
As a Canadian-facing website, we handle personal information in line with the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) and applicable provincial privacy laws. Our processing relies on the following grounds:
- Consent. We rely on your consent for non-essential cookies and analytics, and for handling the details you voluntarily submit through the contact form. You may withdraw consent at any time.
- Legitimate business interests. We rely on our legitimate interest in running a functional, secure, and relevant website, provided this does not override your privacy rights.
- Legal compliance. Where required, we process information to meet legal or regulatory obligations.
Cookies
The Site uses cookies and similar technologies to enable core functionality, remember your preferences, and gather aggregated usage statistics. Essential cookies are necessary for the Site to work, while analytics and preference cookies are optional and set only where permitted. You can accept, reject, or manage cookies through the consent banner and your browser settings. For a full explanation of the categories we use and how to control them, please read our Cookie Policy.
Third Parties
We work with a small number of trusted service providers and partners to run the Site:
- Analytics providers. We use analytics tools to measure aggregated traffic and usage patterns. These tools are configured to prioritise visitor privacy and to avoid unnecessary personal profiling.
- Affiliate networks and tracking links. As an affiliate publisher, our outbound links to gambling brands may pass through affiliate networks and tracking links. When you click such a link, the destination brand and its network may record that the click came from our Site and may apply their own cookies and tracking, governed by their own privacy policies. We do not receive your gambling account details from these brands.
- Hosting and infrastructure. Our hosting and content-delivery providers process technical data such as IP addresses and request logs to deliver and secure the Site.
We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party website you visit after leaving our Site. We are not responsible for the practices of those external operators.
Data Transfers
Some of our service providers may store or process data on servers located outside Canada, including in other countries where they operate. Where information is transferred across borders, we take reasonable steps to ensure it remains protected by comparable safeguards and that providers handle it in a manner consistent with this policy and applicable law. By using the Site, you understand that limited technical and usage data may be processed in these locations.
Data Retention
We retain information only for as long as it is needed for the purposes described in this policy:
- Aggregated analytics data is kept for a limited period sufficient to identify trends, after which it is deleted or further anonymised.
- Messages and email addresses submitted through the contact form are kept only as long as necessary to handle your enquiry and any reasonable follow-up, and are then deleted.
- Cookie lifespans vary by type and are described in our Cookie Policy.
When information is no longer required, we take reasonable steps to delete or anonymise it securely.
Your Rights
Under PIPEDA and applicable Canadian privacy law, you have rights over the personal information we hold about you. These include:
- Access. You may ask what personal information we hold about you and request a copy of it.
- Correction. You may ask us to correct information that is inaccurate or incomplete.
- Deletion. You may ask us to delete the personal information you have provided, subject to any legal obligations that require us to retain it.
- Withdrawal of consent. You may withdraw your consent to optional cookies, analytics, or contact-form processing at any time.
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the details at the end of this policy. We will respond within a reasonable timeframe and may ask you to verify your identity before acting on a request.
Data Security
We apply reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect the limited information we handle against loss, misuse, unauthorised access, disclosure, or alteration. These measures include secure hosting, encrypted connections (HTTPS), and restricted access to any data submitted through the contact form. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security. You share information with us at your own discretion.
Children and Age Restrictions
The Site provides information about online gambling and is intended only for adults. It is not directed at, and must not be used by, anyone under the legal gambling age in their province or territory, which is 18 or 19 depending on where you live in Canada. We do not knowingly collect information from minors. If you believe a minor has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can remove it.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, or legal requirements. When we make material changes, we will revise the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically. Your continued use of the Site after an update means you accept the revised policy.
Contact Us
If you have questions about this Privacy Policy, or if you wish to exercise your privacy rights, you can reach us by email at [email protected]. We aim to respond to all genuine privacy enquiries promptly.
