Mad Casino Privacy Policy | Privacy and Data

1. Who are we?

Mad Casino is an informational affiliate website that guides visitors through the offerings of international online casinos. We do not operate gambling services ourselves but refer visitors to partners via tracking links. For the processing of personal data on this website, we act as the data controller. Questions about processing can be directed to the email address above.

2. What data do we collect?

Mad Casino collects as little data as possible. Specifically, this includes:

Technical data: IP address, browser type, screen resolution, language preference, and operating system.
Usage data: pages visited, time on page, click patterns, referring URL.
Cookie data: functional, analytical, and (after consent) marketing cookies.
Contact data: only when you email us or submit a form — your name, email address, and the content of your message.

The casino operator where you subsequently register collects additional data (such as identity documents, payment details, and play behaviour) under its own privacy policy. Mad Casino has no visibility into that data and is not responsible for it.

3. On what basis do we process data?

We rely on three legal bases:

Consent: for analytical and marketing cookies, requested via the cookie banner.
Legitimate interests: for functional cookies, basic log files, and fraud prevention.
Legal obligation: where the law requires retention or reporting.

4. Retention periods

We do not retain data longer than necessary. As a guide:

Server logs with IP address: maximum 30 days for security purposes.
Analytical cookie data: maximum 14 months, then anonymised or deleted.
Marketing cookies: as stated in the cookie policy, maximum 12 months.
Email correspondence: up to 24 months after the last contact, unless a longer period is required for resolution.

5. Sharing with third parties

Mad Casino does not sell personal data. We share data only with:

Hosting providers and CDNs, under a data processing agreement.
Analytics service providers such as Google Analytics or Plausible (if active, after consent).
Affiliate networks, using only anonymised click IDs for commission processing.

Some service providers are located outside Canada or the European Economic Area. For transfers to such countries we rely on Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the relevant authority, or on an adequacy decision.

6. Cookies

We use functional cookies for the proper operation of the site, analytical cookies to measure traffic, and optional marketing cookies. For a full overview and instructions on withdrawing consent, read our cookie policy.

7. Affiliate relationships and transparency

Mad Casino receives a commission when visitors register at a recommended casino through our links. This does not affect the price or terms for you as a player. We aim to recommend only partners that we genuinely rate, based on licence, game selection, withdrawal times, and customer service.

8. External links

Our site contains links to external casinos, support organisations, and information sources. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those external sites. Always read the privacy policy of any party you engage with.

9. Security

We take appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your data against loss, theft, or unlawful processing. This includes: SSL/TLS encryption on all pages, strict access control management, regular software updates and security tests, and separate production and test environments.

10. Your rights

You have the following rights regarding your personal data:

Right of access to the data we process about you.
Right to rectification of inaccurate or incomplete data.
Right to erasure ('right to be forgotten').
Right to restriction of processing.
Right to object to processing based on legitimate interests.
Right to data portability: to receive or transfer your data.
Right to withdraw consent at any time, without affecting prior processing.

Send requests to info@madcasino.store. We respond within 30 days. If you are not satisfied with our response, you may file a complaint with the applicable privacy authority in your jurisdiction.

11. Minors

Mad Casino is intended exclusively for persons aged 24 and older. We do not knowingly process data from minors. If you believe a minor has submitted data to us, please get in touch so we can delete it.

12. Changes

Mad Casino may update this policy from time to time when legislation, technology, or our services require it. The most current version is always on this page, including the date of the last update.
