Privacy policy and data protection

Privacy overview

Scored Casino operates scored-casino-ca.com as an editorial guide to casino games and operators for Canadian readers. This privacy statement explains what personal and technical data we may collect, why we collect it, how long we keep it, and the rights you have under Canadian privacy law, including PIPEDA and applicable provincial rules. The policy covers data processing carried out by Scored Casino on this website only, not by any external casino operator or partner site.

We aim to collect only what is necessary to run an editorial website and to communicate with readers. Where we ask for information beyond what is required, we will make clear why it is needed and how it will be used.

Data we collect

We process two broad categories of information: data you provide directly and technical data generated by your use of the site. We do not solicit sensitive personal information such as banking details or government identifiers.

We may collect the following when relevant and voluntarily provided by you or automatically captured by the site.

• Contact details you provide when you email us or sign up for communications, such as name and email address
• Communications content you send to support, including questions, feedback, or correction requests
• Technical details recorded by the server such as IP address, browser type, operating system, referring URL, and pages viewed
• Aggregate usage data and site performance metrics used to monitor and maintain the website
• Voluntary contributions such as comments or ratings if that functionality is offered; any information you include in those entries

How we use data

We use collected data for a small set of editorial and administrative purposes. These include responding to reader enquiries, managing subscriptions or notifications you request, improving site content and performance, preventing abuse, and meeting legal obligations.

Technical data helps us maintain the website, diagnose errors, and understand which content is useful to readers. Contact details you provide are used to reply to messages or process specific requests. We do not use personal data for profiling or automated decision making that affects you.

Cookies and tracking

We use essential cookies and minimal technical tracking to keep the site functional and secure. We do not use analytics or marketing cookies on this site. If any non-essential cookies are introduced in future, we will update this policy and seek consent where required.

If you follow links to external sites, those sites may set their own cookies. We do not control third-party cookie practices.

Retention and storage

We retain personal data only as long as necessary for the purpose it was collected or to meet legal obligations. For routine enquiries and email correspondence we typically retain records for up to two years unless you request deletion sooner or a different retention period is required by law.

Data is stored on secure servers and with service providers that help us operate the website. Storage locations may involve cross-border transfers depending on provider infrastructure. We take reasonable steps to limit transfers and require service providers to maintain appropriate safeguards.
