\n
Welcome to ratedusacasinos.com. In our opinion, transparency regarding data handling is a cornerstone of a trustworthy review service. This Privacy Policy outlines how we may collect, use, and protect your information when you visit our website, which focuses on providing methodology-based reviews of subscription-based online casinos.
\n\n
1. Our Approach to Data
\n
Based on our methodology, we strive to minimize the amount of personal data we collect. We are an independent review site, not a gambling operator. Our goal is to provide objective insights into the iGaming industry while ensuring that our users are aware that gambling always carries risk. We encourage all visitors to visit our dedicated responsible gambling page to ensure they are playing within their limits.
\n\n

Depending on how you interact with our site, we may collect the following types of information:

4. Affiliate Relationships and Third Parties
\n
It is important to be transparent: ratedusacasinos.com may participate in affiliate programs. This means we could receive a commission if you click a link to a casino we have reviewed. However, this does not influence our scoring methodology. We may share anonymized analytics data with our partners, but we do not sell your personal email address to third-party marketers.
\n\n
5. Data Retention
\n
We believe that data should not be kept longer than necessary. We may retain analytics data for a period that allows us to identify long-term trends. If you have subscribed to our newsletter, we will keep your email address until you choose to unsubscribe or until we determine that the data is no longer needed for the purpose it was collected.
\n\n

If you are accessing our site from the European Economic Area (EEA), you have specific rights regarding your personal data. Based on our review of current regulations, we provide the following:
\n
- \n
- Right of Access: You may request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.

While no method of transmission over the internet is entirely secure, we implement industry-standard measures to protect your data. In our opinion, these safeguards could significantly reduce the risk of unauthorized access, though we cannot claim that any system is entirely immune to breaches.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our methodology or legal requirements. Any updates will be posted on this page. We encourage users to review this policy periodically to stay informed about how we handle their information.

10. Final Note on Responsible Gaming

Our primary mission is to provide a transparent look at the subscription-based casino model. We remind all users that gambling should be treated as a form of entertainment, not a way to make money. Please gamble responsibly and seek help if you feel your gaming habits are becoming problematic.
