Privacy Policy

Summary

No KYC Casinos is an editorial site. We do not run a casino, hold player funds, or process gambling transactions. The data we collect is limited to what is needed to operate the website and measure where our traffic comes from. This page explains exactly what we collect, why, and how to ask us to delete it.

1. Who We Are

"No KYC Casinos," "we," "us," and "our" refer to the operators of the website at barnegatshellfish.org. The site publishes editorial reviews of online casinos for US-based readers. The publisher is reachable at [email protected].

2. What We Collect

2.1 Server logs

When you visit the site, our hosting provider records standard server log data: IP address, user agent string, requested URL, referring URL, and timestamp. This data is used to operate the site, debug issues, and detect abuse. Logs are retained for up to 30 days and then deleted.

2.2 Analytics

We use privacy-friendly analytics to count visits and understand which pages are read. Where standard third-party analytics (such as Google Analytics) is in use, the script anonymizes IP addresses and respects "Do Not Track" headers where possible. No personally identifying information is sold.

2.3 Affiliate tracking

When you click an outbound link to a casino we review, that casino's affiliate platform may set a tracking cookie or attach a tracking parameter to the destination URL so that any signup or deposit can be attributed to us. We earn commission on those signups. The casino's own privacy policy applies once you leave our site.

2.4 Email

If you email us, we receive your email address and the contents of your message. We retain enquiries for as long as is reasonable to handle the conversation and any follow-up.

3. What We Do Not Collect

• We do not run player accounts, so we hold no usernames, passwords, deposit history, or wagering data.
• We do not collect identity documents. If a casino we review asks you for ID, that is the casino's process, not ours.
• We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under the age of 21. Every page on the site assumes an adult audience.

4. Cookies

The site uses a small number of cookies. Most fall into two categories:

• Strictly necessary cookies needed to display the site (for example, remembering whether the mobile menu is open).
• Analytics cookies that count unique visits without identifying you.
• Affiliate tracking cookies set by destination casinos when you click an outbound link. These are governed by the destination casino's policy.

You can clear or block cookies in your browser settings. Doing so does not affect your ability to read the site.

5. Sharing

We do not sell, rent, or trade reader data. Limited data is shared with:

• Our hosting provider (server logs, technical operation)
• Our analytics provider, in aggregated form (page-level visit counts)
• Casino affiliate networks, when you click an outbound link (the click event itself, your IP, and any tracking parameters in the URL)
• Law enforcement, if we receive a valid legal demand

6. Your Rights

6.1 California (CCPA / CPRA)

California residents may request to know what personal information we hold about them, request deletion, and opt out of the "sale" or "sharing" of personal information. We do not sell personal information in the everyday sense, but third-party analytics and affiliate tracking may meet the technical definition of "sharing" under the CPRA. To exercise these rights, email [email protected].

6.2 EEA / UK (GDPR / UK GDPR)

If you are in the European Economic Area or United Kingdom, you have the right to access, correct, delete, restrict, port, or object to the processing of your personal data. The site is intended for US readers, but if you reach out from the EEA or UK we will honor the same rights you would have under the GDPR. The legal basis for our processing is legitimate interest (operating an editorial website) and, where required, consent.

6.3 How to ask

Email [email protected] with the subject line "Privacy Request" and tell us what you would like us to do. We aim to respond within 30 days.

7. Children

Online gambling in the United States requires you to be at least 21 years old in most jurisdictions and 18 in others. The site is not directed at minors. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 21 and will delete any data we discover has been collected from a minor.

8. Security

We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect the data we hold, including HTTPS for all pages and access controls on our hosting environment. No internet service can be guaranteed 100% secure, but we have no high-risk data on file because we do not collect player accounts.

9. Changes

We may update this policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top of the page reflects the most recent change. Significant changes will be flagged on the homepage for at least 14 days.
