How data is handled

What we actually collect

Readers who look up an Online Irish casino often want a straight account of the data behind the comparison. This notice is that account. The editorial team publishes reviews and does not run a casino, take a stake or hold a player account. You need to be 18 or over to use the site.

Contact form

The form at /contact/ collects a name, an email address and the message. We use them to read the query and reply, including a reply that the editors cannot help. The address is not placed on a mailing list. The message stays until the reply and any brief follow-up are finished, then it is deleted. No day-count is published; storage lasts for the life of the query.

Cookies

One strictly necessary cookie remembers whether optional cookies were accepted or refused. It remains for the browsing session, or until you clear site data. Expiry in days is not stated. Optional cookies stay off unless you opt in, and the reviews remain readable if you refuse them. We found no advertising network setting cookies on the pages checked. That check is not a promise about every script added later.

Analytics

Aggregated analytics show which pages open and whether someone moved from the home comparison into a review. The aim is to see which explanations are actually read. The figures are not names, and they are not grounds for emailing you. A full list of cookies an analytics script might set could not be verified in every browser. Figures remain while they still describe reading patterns, then they go. Public text does not fix a retention length in days or months.

Data we do not receive

Card numbers, e-wallet logins and casino passwords never reach this site. An affiliate link can tell a brand that a visit began here. Anything logged after that click has not been verified by us, and each operator's own privacy text is unreviewed. None of the casinos in the comparison holds a licence from the Gambling Regulatory Authority of Ireland. Their pages fall outside this notice.

Readers in Ireland and the rest of the European Economic Area can ask the editorial team for the following:

a copy of the personal data we hold about them;
correction of anything inaccurate;
deletion where we have no reason left to keep it;
restriction of, or an objection to, processing that is not required;
a portable copy of data they typed into the contact form.

Use the form on /contact/. We may ask you to prove control of the same email address before we release a message. A complaint can go to Ireland's data-protection supervisory authority. No postal address for the editorial team is published on this site.
