Privacy Policy

The comfortable version

No advertising trackers. No third-party requests of any kind - fonts, scripts and styles are all self-hosted. We run one anonymous, cookie-less first-party visit counter (below) because we need to know which pages serve readers. It cannot follow you across sites, and it stores nothing a profile could be built from.

What is stored and why

Ratings & comments: content, optional nickname, a creation date (hour precision) and two hashes: a salted hash of your IP and a hash of a random browser token. The hashes exist for rate limiting and one-rating-per-casino logic. The salt (pepper) is rotatable and destroys old hashes on rotation.
Comment payments: posting a comment requires a small Monero payment (~US$0.08) that replaces captchas and accounts as anti-spam. We generate a fresh subaddress per payment request and delete the address from our database once the comment is posted. If you pay but never post, the credit stays valid (you never pay twice), but the deposit address is removed 30 days after payment. Monero is pseudonymous by design - we never see who paid. Unpaid open payment requests are deleted after 7 days.
Visit counts: one anonymous counter row per page view: date, page path, referrer host plus a truncated referrer URL (search-engine terms are extracted from it for the traffic report), browser/OS class, language, time on page (rounded, sent by the page itself when you leave it) and a salted IP hash with a random session id. No cookies, no raw IPs, no raw user agents, no cross-site identifiers - the counter cannot follow you to any other site. Visits from the same IP share this one anonymous counter identity (that is what an IP-based count is); rotating the internal salt permanently breaks the link to every previously stored visitor id (the old hashes become orphans - a hash cannot be re-hashed). Rows are deleted after at most 12 months.
Click counts: casino, day, device class. Aggregated - no IP, no referrer, no session.
Server logs: disabled for IP logging. We keep error counters, not visitor records.

Local storage

Your browser stores a random token (one-rating logic), your theme choice and the dismissed age banner - and, only if you explicitly opt in on the spend journal, that journal's local data. Session-scoped storage (gone with the tab) is used by the tools that work with sensitive numbers. That is all. Clearing site data resets everything harmlessly.

No accounts

There is no registration and no email collection anywhere on this site.

Deletion

We hold no identity-linked data. To request deletion of a comment or rating, contact us with its approximate date and casino; we remove it manually.
