Last Updated: February 19, 2026
Effective Date: February 19, 2026
This Privacy Policy describes how GamblerWall.com (“the Site,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, and discloses information about visitors to our website. This Policy is governed by the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA), S.C. 2000, c. 5, and applicable provincial privacy legislation.
By accessing or using GamblerWall.com, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy.

1. Scope of This Policy
This Privacy Policy applies solely to information collected by GamblerWall.com through your use of this website. It does not apply to information collected by:
- Third-party casino operators, advertisers, or other websites to which we link;
- Any offline activities.
We are an independent affiliate review platform. We do not operate casino services, process financial transactions, or collect payment information of any kind.
2. Information We Collect
2.1 Information We Do NOT Collect
We want to be clear about what we do not collect:
- Full legal names, postal addresses, or government-issued identification;
- Credit card numbers, bank account details, or any financial data;
- Passwords or authentication credentials;
- Sensitive personal information as defined under PIPEDA Schedule 1.
2.2 Technical Information We Collect Automatically
When you visit GamblerWall.com, our servers and third-party infrastructure (including Supabase Edge Functions) automatically collect the following technical data:
IP Address
Your Internet Protocol (IP) address is recorded each time you interact with certain features of the Site, including when you click on affiliate redirect links (e.g., via our /go/ redirect system). Your IP address is a numerical label assigned to your device by your Internet Service Provider and is considered personal information under PIPEDA where it can be used to identify you.
Browser Information (User Agent)
We collect your browser type, version, operating system, and device type as transmitted by your browser in the standard HTTP User-Agent header. This information is used to ensure the Site renders correctly across devices and to support analytics.
Referring URL & Page Path
We record the URL of the page you visited before arriving at our Site, and the specific pages you access within our Site. This helps us understand traffic sources and content performance.
Timestamp Data
Date and time of each request is logged as part of standard server operations.
3. How and Why We Use Your Information
We process the technical data described above for the following specific, legitimate purposes:
3.1 Geo-Routing and Regulatory Compliance
This is the primary reason we process IP addresses.
GamblerWall.com is subject to Canadian provincial gambling regulations, most significantly the iGaming Ontario framework administered by the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO). Under this framework, we are legally and ethically required to prevent residents of the Province of Ontario from being directed to casino operators that do not hold a valid operating agreement with iGaming Ontario.
To fulfil this obligation, our infrastructure uses your IP address to perform geolocation lookups — determining, at a country and province level, the approximate location from which you are accessing the Site. This process is automated and is used exclusively to:
- Suppress or redirect content that is not compliant with Ontario iGaming regulations for users whose IP resolves to Ontario, Canada;
- Serve jurisdictionally appropriate content and affiliate links.
We do not use IP geolocation for profiling, behavioural targeting, or any commercial purpose beyond regulatory compliance and basic traffic analytics.
3.2 Traffic Analytics
Aggregated, anonymised traffic data (including approximate geographic region, browser type, device category, and pages visited) is used to understand how visitors use our Site, identify popular content, and improve the user experience. Where possible, we rely on aggregated rather than individual-level data.
3.3 Fraud Prevention and Security
Technical logs, including IP addresses, may be retained and reviewed to detect and investigate suspicious activity, abuse of our affiliate redirect system, or other security incidents.
3.4 Legal Compliance
We may process and retain personal information to the extent necessary to comply with applicable laws, respond to lawful requests from regulatory authorities, or enforce our Terms of Use.

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties for their marketing purposes. We may disclose your information in the following limited circumstances:
Service Providers: We engage third-party service providers to support our technical infrastructure, including Supabase (database and Edge Functions hosting) and Cloudflare (content delivery and DDoS protection). These providers process data on our behalf and are contractually required to handle it in accordance with applicable privacy laws.
Affiliate Networks: Aggregated, non-personally-identifying click and conversion data is shared with affiliate networks and casino operators for the purpose of commission tracking and performance reporting. We do not share individual-level personal information (such as your IP address) with casino operators.
Legal Requirements: We may disclose personal information if required to do so by law, court order, or a request by a Canadian federal or provincial regulatory authority with appropriate jurisdiction.
Business Transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, personal information held by GamblerWall.com may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to the same privacy protections described in this Policy.
6. Third-Party Links and External Websites
GamblerWall.com contains hyperlinks to third-party websites, including online casino operators, affiliate networks, payment processors, and responsible gambling organizations. Once you click a link and leave our Site, this Privacy Policy no longer applies.
Third-party sites have their own privacy policies, which we encourage you to review before providing any personal information to them. We are not responsible for the privacy practices, content, or data security of any external website.
7. Data Retention
We retain personal information only for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, as described in this Policy, or as required by applicable law.

| Affiliate click logs | Up to 24 months for commission verification purposes |
| Analytics data (aggregated) | Up to 26 months |
| Cookie data | As described in Section 4.2 |
8. Data Security
We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect personal information against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. These measures include encrypted data transmission (TLS/HTTPS), access controls on server infrastructure, and regular security reviews.
However, no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is completely secure. We cannot guarantee the absolute security of any information you transmit to us.
