Who we are
This website is operated by the Best Casinos Australia editorial team at top-10-online-casino-australia.eu.com. We're an independent review and comparison site focused on Australian online casino players.
If you have questions about this policy, you can reach us through our contact page.
What data we collect and why
Data you give us directly
When you use our contact form, we collect your name, email address, and the content of your message. We use this only to respond to your enquiry. We don't add you to any mailing list without your explicit consent, and we don't share this information with anyone.
Data collected automatically
Like most websites, we collect basic analytics data when you visit: pages viewed, time on site, device type, and approximate geographic location (country/city level — we never collect precise location). We use this to understand which content is useful and how the site is performing. This data is anonymised and aggregated.
Cookies
We use a small number of cookies:
- Essential cookies — required for the site to function. These can't be disabled.
- Analytics cookies — help us understand how visitors use the site. You can opt out of these.
- Affiliate tracking cookies — when you click a link to a casino we recommend, a cookie may be set to track whether you sign up, which is how we earn a commission. This data goes to the casino's affiliate programme, not to us directly, and doesn't contain any personally identifiable information.
Affiliate disclosure
We earn commissions from some of the casinos we recommend. When you click through one of our links and create an account, the casino may pay us a referral fee. This is how we fund the site and keep our reviews free to read.
This commercial relationship does not affect our editorial rankings. We have recommended sites that pay us lower commissions because they're better for players, and we've declined to list sites that offered higher commissions but didn't meet our standards. Our methodology page explains how rankings are determined.
Third-party services
We use the following third-party services that may process data about your visit:
- Google Analytics — website analytics. Google's privacy policy applies.
- Google Fonts — we load fonts from Google's servers. Google may log the request.
- Cloudflare — we use Cloudflare for performance and security. They process network traffic data.
We don't use Facebook Pixel, TikTok tracking, or any other social media retargeting tools.
Data retention
Contact form submissions are retained for up to 12 months, then deleted. Analytics data is retained for 26 months in aggregated form. We don't store payment information — we don't process any payments on this site.
Your rights
You have the right to:
- Request a copy of any personal data we hold about you
- Ask us to correct or delete your data
- Opt out of analytics tracking (you can do this via your browser's cookie settings or a privacy extension like uBlock Origin)
To exercise these rights, contact us through our contact page. We'll respond within 30 days.
Changes to this policy
If we make material changes to this policy, we'll update the "last updated" date at the top of this page. We won't notify you by email unless the change directly affects how we handle your personal data.
