Privacy policy

How Best Casinos IE collects, uses, and protects your information

Last updated: 4 June 2026

Key point
This notice explains what personal data we process when you visit bestcasinosie.com, why we need it, and the rights you have under applicable data-protection law (including GDPR where it applies).

1. Who we are

Best Casinos IE operates an editorial comparison website for licensed online casinos aimed at adults in Ireland. We are not a gambling operator and do not process player deposits or KYC on behalf of casinos.

2. Data we may collect

Technical data: IP address, approximate region, browser type, device category, referring URL, and server logs used for security and performance.

Usage data: pages viewed, interaction patterns in aggregate, outbound clicks to partner sites (for compliance and affiliate reporting), and your cookie-banner choice.

Contact data: email address and message content if you write to us voluntarily.

Marketing attribution: when you arrive via ads, we may store campaign parameters (such as gclid or utm_term) in first-party cookies or local storage so partner reporting stays accurate. See our Cookie Policy for details.

3. Why we use your data

  • Deliver and secure the website (legitimate interests / necessity)
  • Measure anonymous traffic and fix errors (consent where required)
  • Respond to enquiries you send us
  • Comply with legal, tax, or regulatory obligations when applicable
  • Attribute affiliate referrals fairly when you click outbound links

4. Processors and international transfers

Hosting, analytics, security, or content-delivery vendors may process data under contract and only on our instructions. If data leaves the European Economic Area, we use appropriate safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses.

5. Retention

Security logs and aggregated analytics are kept for limited rolling periods suited to incident review. Consent records remain until you withdraw them. Emails are retained only as long as needed to resolve your request.

6. Cookies

We use essential cookies for security and to remember your consent choice. Optional cookies support analytics. You can refuse non-essential cookies via our banner or browser settings. Full detail lives in our Cookie Policy.

7. Your rights

Where GDPR applies, you may request to:

  • Access the personal data we hold about you
  • Correct inaccurate information
  • Erase data when no lawful reason to keep it remains
  • Restrict or object to certain processing
  • Receive portable copies of data you provided
  • Withdraw consent for optional processing at any time

Contact us using the details published on bestcasinosie.com. You may also complain to the Data Protection Commission in Ireland if you believe processing is unlawful.

8. Minors

Our content discusses real-money gambling and is intended for adults aged 18 and over. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 18.

9. Changes

We update this policy when practices change. The "Last updated" date at the top reflects the latest version. Continued use after publication means you accept the revised notice where the law permits.
