Online Casinos Australia » Privacy Policy

Casino Sites Review is published by CSR Media Australia Pty Ltd (ABN 73 106 492 835), 117 Lonsdale St, Melbourne VIC 3000, Australia. Casino Sites Review is an independent online casino review and comparison site for Australian players. In this Privacy Policy, “Casino Sites Review”, “we”, “us” and “our” refer to CSR Media Australia Pty Ltd as publisher of casinositesreview.io. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect when you visit casinositesreview.io, why we collect it, how we use and share it, how long we keep it, and the choices available to you.

We are committed to handling personal information responsibly and transparently. Where the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) apply to us, we comply with those requirements. Where they do not apply to us as a legal requirement, we aim to handle personal information consistently with the privacy principles described in this policy.

We are a publisher, not a casino. We do not operate gambling services, hold player funds, process bets, or provide casino accounts to visitors. As a result, we do not need visitors to provide the kinds of account, banking, wagering, or identity-verification information commonly collected by casino operators.

Disclaimer: 18+ Gamble Responsibly. Read our gambling laws guide and only wager what you can afford to lose. See how we rate casinos and our editorial policy for details on our review standards. For gambling support, contact Gambling Help Online on 1800 858 858 or Lifeline Australia on 13 11 14.

 

Privacy Policy Australia

Who We Are and What This Policy Covers

Casino Sites Review publishes reviews, comparisons, testing information, and guides about online casinos available to Australian players. This policy covers the casinositesreview.io website and information that Casino Sites Review collects through it.

It does not cover third-party casino sites or other external services that we link to. Those businesses have their own privacy practices and policies. Once you leave our website and provide information directly to another site, that site’s privacy policy applies to the information you give it.

Throughout this policy, personal information means information or an opinion about an identified individual, or an individual who is reasonably identifiable. Depending on the circumstances, this can include direct identifiers such as your name or email address as well as online identifiers, IP addresses, or other information that can reasonably be linked to you.

You can browse most of Casino Sites Review without identifying yourself. You only need to provide identifying information when it is reasonably necessary for a feature you choose to use, such as contacting us or subscribing to updates.

What Personal Information We Collect

We collect information in two main ways: information you choose to give us and information collected automatically when you use the website.

Information You Give Us Directly

We may receive personal information when you:

  • Fill in a contact or enquiry form, such as your name, email address, and message.
  • Subscribe to a newsletter or updates, if we offer them, such as your email address.
  • Contact us by email or through social media, including any information you choose to include in your message.

Please do not send us copies of identity documents, payment-card details, bank-account details, passwords, or other sensitive information unless we specifically ask for it and explain why it is necessary.

If we receive personal or sensitive information that we did not request, we will consider whether we could reasonably and lawfully have collected it. Where we do not reasonably need the information and it is lawful and reasonable to do so, we may delete or de-identify it as soon as practicable.

Information Collected Automatically

When you browse the site, our website and service providers may collect technical and usage information such as:

  • Your IP address, which may be used to determine an approximate location such as country, state, or city.
  • Browser, device, operating-system, language, and screen information.
  • Pages viewed, approximate session duration, referral pages, and links or buttons clicked.
  • Cookie, analytics, advertising, and affiliate identifiers.
  • Security and server-log information used to detect errors, abuse, spam, or security threats.

Some online identifiers may amount to personal information where they identify you or can reasonably be linked with other information to make you identifiable.

We do not ask website visitors for casino-account credentials, copies of ID, payment-card details, bank-account details, or gambling-account histories. If you choose to open an account with a third-party casino, that operator collects and controls the information you provide to it under its own privacy policy.

Why We Collect and Use Information

We use information only for purposes connected with operating, protecting, measuring, and improving Casino Sites Review, including:

  • Responding to enquiries. We use the information you provide to answer questions and manage follow-up correspondence.
  • Sending requested updates. If you subscribe, we use your contact details to send the communications you requested and to manage your subscription preferences.
  • Operating and improving the site. Analytics and technical information help us understand how the website is used, identify broken pages, improve navigation, and monitor performance.
  • Protecting the site. Technical and security information helps us detect spam, misuse, malicious activity, and technical problems.
  • Measuring affiliate referrals. Affiliate technologies help us understand whether a visitor we referred later completed an action with a partner, so the partner can attribute the referral correctly.
  • Meeting legal obligations. We may use or disclose information where reasonably necessary to comply with applicable law, respond to lawful requests, establish or defend legal claims, or protect our rights and users.

We do not sell or rent your personal information.

Cookies and Your Privacy Choices

Cookies are small data files stored on or accessed from your device. Similar technologies can include pixels, tags, local storage, and unique identifiers.

The cookies and similar technologies used on Casino Sites Review may include:

  • Strictly necessary technologies, which support core website functions, security, and privacy preferences.
  • Analytics technologies, such as Google Analytics, which help us understand traffic and how visitors use the site.
  • Advertising and affiliate technologies, which can help measure referrals and attribute activity to an affiliate link.

Where a cookie or consent-management tool is displayed, you can use it to manage the non-essential categories made available through that tool. We will respect the privacy choices recorded through our consent controls. You can also use your browser settings to block or delete cookies, although doing so may affect some website functions.

The specific technologies used on the site can change as we update providers and website features. We periodically review our cookie and tracking configuration so that this policy and the choices presented on the site remain consistent with our actual practices.

Affiliate Links, Commissions, and Tracking

Casino Sites Review is free to use and may earn revenue through affiliate links. Some links to casinos are affiliate links, which means we may earn an affiliate commission if a visitor completes a qualifying action with a partner after using one of our links, at no extra cost to the visitor.

Affiliate tracking may use cookies, tags, click identifiers, or other online identifiers to attribute a referral. Depending on the data involved and the circumstances, those identifiers may be personal information.

A referral record does not ordinarily mean that Casino Sites Review receives your identity, payment details, casino login credentials, copies of ID, or full gambling-account history from the casino. The information available to us is generally limited to information needed to record or verify the referral and commission. If a partner provides us with additional personal information for a specific purpose, we will handle it in accordance with this policy and applicable law.

Commission does not determine our rankings or ratings. For more information, see our Advertising Disclosure and Editorial Policy.

Who We Share Information With

We may disclose or make information available to service providers and other parties where reasonably necessary to operate the website, including:

  • Analytics providers, such as Google Analytics, which process website-usage and measurement information.
  • Affiliate and advertising partners, which may receive referral or online identifiers used to attribute qualifying activity.
  • Hosting, infrastructure, security, and technical providers, which help us host, maintain, secure, and troubleshoot the website.
  • Email and communications providers, where we use them to receive enquiries or send requested communications.
  • Professional advisers, such as legal or accounting advisers, where reasonably necessary.
  • Authorities, regulators, courts, or other parties, where disclosure is required or authorised by law or reasonably necessary to establish, exercise, or defend legal rights.

We do not disclose personal information to third parties simply so they can independently market unrelated products to you without an appropriate legal basis or permission.

Overseas Processing and Disclosure

Some of our service providers operate internationally, so information may be processed or disclosed outside Australia. Based on the services currently identified in this policy, likely overseas locations include the United States, including where services are provided by global technology providers such as Google.

Before adding or materially changing a service provider that handles personal information, we aim to consider where that provider and its relevant subprocessors are located. Where it is practicable to identify the countries in which overseas recipients are likely to be located, we will include those countries in this policy.

Where the Privacy Act and APP 8 apply to an overseas disclosure by us, we take the steps required by applicable law in relation to that disclosure.

How We Protect Information

We take reasonable technical and organisational steps appropriate to the nature of the information we hold and the risks involved. The public Casino Sites Review website uses HTTPS/TLS encrypted connections.

Our other security controls are based on the systems and service providers we actually use. They may include access restrictions, account-security controls, backups, website or server security controls, software updates, vulnerability management, and security features supplied by our hosting or infrastructure providers.

No internet service can guarantee absolute security. We review security measures in light of the information we hold, the systems we use, and reasonably foreseeable risks.

Data Breaches and the Notifiable Data Breaches Scheme

If we become aware of an actual or suspected data breach, we will take reasonable steps to contain, assess, and remediate the incident.

Where the Notifiable Data Breaches (NDB) Scheme applies to us, we will assess suspected eligible data breaches and, where required by law, notify affected individuals who are at risk of serious harm and the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC) as soon as practicable. We may also provide affected individuals with practical information about steps they can take to reduce potential harm.

How Long We Keep Information

We keep personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, for legitimate operational or legal needs, or as required by law. Retention periods can differ depending on the type of information and the service involved.

In general:

  • Contact and enquiry records are kept for as long as reasonably necessary to respond, manage follow-up issues, and maintain appropriate business records.
  • Newsletter or subscription information is kept while you remain subscribed. If you unsubscribe, we may retain a limited suppression record so we can respect your opt-out request.
  • Analytics information is retained in accordance with our configured analytics settings and reviewed periodically so it is not kept longer than reasonably necessary for measurement and reporting.
  • Security and technical logs are kept for periods reasonably necessary for security, fraud prevention, troubleshooting, and website operation.

When information is no longer reasonably required, we take reasonable steps to delete it or de-identify it, subject to any legal or operational requirement to retain it.

Data Quality and Unsolicited Information

We take reasonable steps, having regard to the purpose for which information is collected, used, or disclosed, to keep personal information we rely on accurate, up to date, complete, and relevant.

If you believe personal information we hold about you is inaccurate, out of date, incomplete, irrelevant, or misleading, you can ask us to correct it using the contact details below.

If we receive unsolicited personal information that we could not reasonably or lawfully have collected, we will take appropriate steps to delete or de-identify it as soon as practicable where it is lawful and reasonable to do so.

Your Privacy Choices and Requests

Depending on the law that applies to us and to your information, you may have rights to request access to or correction of personal information we hold about you.

You may also ask us to delete or de-identify information, restrict a particular use, or stop sending marketing communications. Not every request creates an absolute legal right to deletion or restriction, but we will consider each request and take appropriate action where required or reasonably practicable.

You can unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time by using the unsubscribe mechanism in the email or by contacting us.

To make a privacy request, contact our Privacy Officer at privacy@casinositesreview.io. We may need to verify your identity before giving access to personal information or acting on certain requests. We aim to respond within a reasonable period and, where practicable, within 30 days.

Which Privacy Laws Apply

Whether a particular privacy law applies depends on factors such as the legal entity operating the site, its activities, turnover, where it carries on business, the people or markets it specifically targets, and any statutory exemptions or thresholds.

In Australia, the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles apply to organisations that meet the Act’s coverage requirements. Some small businesses with annual turnover of $3 million or less are generally exempt unless an exception applies, and some businesses may also choose to opt in to Privacy Act coverage.

Casino Sites Review follows the commitments in this policy regardless of whether every provision of the Privacy Act applies to us in every circumstance.

Privacy laws in other jurisdictions, including the EU GDPR, UK GDPR, or California privacy law, do not necessarily apply merely because a person from that jurisdiction can access the website. Their application depends on the relevant legal tests, such as whether services are specifically offered or behaviour is monitored in a jurisdiction, and whether applicable business thresholds are met. Where another privacy law applies to our handling of your information, we will comply with the rights and obligations that law requires.

Automated Decision-Making

We do not currently use personal information in a computer program to make decisions that could reasonably be expected to significantly affect a visitor’s rights or interests.

If we introduce automated decision-making of that kind and applicable privacy law requires additional transparency, we will update this policy to explain the kinds of personal information used and the kinds of decisions involved.

Privacy Complaints

If you believe we have mishandled your personal information or failed to follow this policy, please contact our Privacy Officer using the details below.

Our complaint process is:

  1. We will acknowledge your complaint, normally within 2 business days.
  2. We will review the issue and may ask you for further information if needed to investigate it properly.
  3. We will investigate the complaint and consider any steps needed to correct the issue.
  4. We aim to provide a written outcome within 30 days. If we need more time because the matter is complex, we will let you know.
  5. If the Privacy Act applies to the matter and you remain dissatisfied after giving us a reasonable opportunity to respond, you may be able to make a complaint to the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC).

The OAIC can be contacted through its official website or by phone on 1300 363 992.

Age Restriction

You must be 18 or older to use this site. Our content relates to real-money gambling and is intended for adults.

We do not knowingly ask children to provide personal information through the site. If you believe a person under 18 has provided personal information to us, contact privacy@casinositesreview.io and we will review the information and take appropriate steps, including deletion where appropriate.

If gambling is causing you harm, support information is available through our Responsible Gambling page.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes to our website, service providers, information-handling practices, or applicable law.

When we update the policy, we will change the Last updated date at the top of the page. If a change materially affects how we handle personal information, we will take reasonable steps to make the change clear to users where appropriate.

We will also review this policy when relevant privacy-law changes take effect, including new transparency requirements that may apply to certain automated decisions from 10 December 2026.

Editorial Statement: We independently test and rank every casino on this page using the process described in “How We Tested These Aussie Online Casinos” below. Some links on this page are affiliate links if you sign up through one, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. That commission never decides a casino’s rank or rating. A casino that pays us and fails our withdrawal test still gets marked down; we’ve excluded operators that offered paid placement in exchange for a guaranteed top-5 spot. If you want to check our reasoning on any pick, the testing data behind it is laid out in the review section, not just the summary table.
