1. Who We Are & What This Policy Covers

Welcome to bitcoinerx (https://bitcoinerx.com/), an independent editorial website that reviews and compares Bitcoin casinos and other crypto-gambling platforms.
We don’t operate casinos or handle gambling transactions — we provide research, rankings, and education to help readers play safely and responsibly.

This policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you visit our site.

2. What We Collect

We collect limited information to run the site effectively:

  • Browsing & Device Data: IP address, browser type, operating system, pages viewed, referral links, and approximate location.

  • Cookies & Trackers: Used for analytics, advertising, and affiliate link tracking (e.g., to record when you click through to a partner site).

  • No Sensitive Data: We don’t collect financial information, government IDs, or anything that reveals race, religion, or health.

  • (If applicable) We don’t have user accounts or comment sections.

3. How We Use Information

We use data only for:

  • Running, maintaining, and improving the site

  • Preventing abuse or spam

  • Measuring website traffic and understanding what content is most useful

  • Managing advertising performance and affiliate tracking

  • Personalizing or capping ads

  • Complying with laws and protecting our rights

We don’t sell your information for money. Some advertising and affiliate tracking may qualify as “sharing” under California law.

4. Cookies & Tracking

We use small text files called cookies, as well as web beacons and affiliate link IDs, to measure performance and remember your preferences.
You can manage or delete cookies in your browser settings.

To opt out of data sharing for cross-context advertising, email [email protected] with “Do Not Sell or Share” in the subject line.
We also respect Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals when technically feasible.

5. Advertising, Analytics & Affiliates

We use standard tools like Google Analytics and affiliate tracking systems to understand how users engage with our site.
When you click on a link to a casino or gaming site, we may receive a commission if you later sign up or deposit. This doesn’t affect the price you pay or the ranking of our reviews.

Ad networks and affiliate partners may use cookies to measure conversions and prevent fraud. Please review their own privacy policies for details.

6. Sharing of Information

We share limited data only with:

  • Service providers: hosting, analytics, email, and security partners

  • Ad and affiliate partners: for measurement and commission tracking

  • Legal authorities: if required by law or to protect our rights

We don’t sell your personal data, and we only share what’s necessary for legitimate business purposes.

7. Your Privacy Rights (US States)

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to:

  • Access, delete, or correct your information

  • Request a copy (portability)

  • Opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of your data

  • Appeal a denied request (email us with “Appeal” in the subject line)

To exercise your rights, email [email protected]. We’ll verify requests using basic details (e.g., your email address) and respond within the required time.

We do not use or disclose sensitive personal information.

8. Data Retention & Security

We keep browsing logs for about 12 months and analytics data for up to 24 months.
The site uses HTTPS encryption, access controls, and regular software updates.
No online system is perfectly secure, but we take reasonable steps to protect your data.

9. Children’s Privacy

Our site is for adults 21+. We don’t knowingly collect or store data from minors. If you’re under the legal age for online gambling in your state, please don’t use this site.

10. Third-Party Links & Disclaimers

Our reviews and guides contain links to external gambling or crypto sites.
We’re not responsible for their privacy or data-handling practices — always read each operator’s policy before sharing information.

11. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy occasionally. The “Last updated” date above reflects the most recent version. Major changes will be posted on this page.
