Who We Are
AnjouanSites runs the website at anjouansites.com and is responsible for the personal information collected through it. In data protection terms, we are the controller of that information. If you have any question about this policy or how we handle your data, email us at [email protected].
This policy covers our website only. It does not cover the casinos and betting sites we write about. When you leave our site for one of them, that site's own privacy policy applies.
Information We Collect
You can read every page on AnjouanSites without creating an account or telling us who you are. We don't take payments, we don't take bets and we don't ask for identity documents. The information we do collect falls into four groups:
| Type | What it includes |
|---|---|
| Usage data | Pages you visit, how long you stay, the page that sent you here, your browser and device type, and an approximate location worked out from your IP address. |
| Click data | Which Play link you clicked, when, and a click reference that lets a casino tell us a visitor came from our site. |
| Search terms | What you type into the casino or license search box on our pages. |
| Messages | Your email address and anything you include when you write to us. |
Please don't send us sensitive information, such as health details or account passwords for a casino, in an email. We don't need it to answer your question.
How We Use It and Why
We only use personal information when we have a legal reason to. The table sets out each purpose and the reason we rely on.
| Purpose | Legal basis |
|---|---|
| Running the site, keeping it secure and fixing errors | Our legitimate interests |
| Measuring which pages readers find useful | Your consent, where the law requires it |
| Recording referrals so casinos can pay our commission | Your consent, where the law requires it, or our legitimate interests |
| Replying to your emails | Our legitimate interests |
| Meeting legal and tax obligations | Legal obligation |
We don't use your information to make automated decisions that have legal or similarly significant effects on you, and we don't build marketing profiles of individual readers.
Cookies and Similar Technologies
Cookies are small files a website stores in your browser. We use three kinds:
Where the law requires your consent, we only set optional cookies after you agree, and you can change your choice at any time. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Blocking optional cookies won't stop the site working.
Affiliate Links and Casino Sites
Play buttons on AnjouanSites are affiliate links. When you click one, you leave our site and the casino collects your information under its own privacy policy, not this one. We don't see the details you give a casino when you sign up, deposit or verify your identity.
Casinos and affiliate networks send us referral reports so they can pay our commission. These reports link activity to the click reference from our site and do not normally name the player. How the site is funded is explained on our About Us page.
Who We Share It With
We don't sell your personal information. We share it only with:
- service providers that host the site, provide analytics and handle our email, under contracts that limit how they can use it;
- casinos and affiliate networks, which receive the click reference when you follow a Play link;
- professional advisers, such as accountants and lawyers, where needed;
- courts, regulators or law enforcement, where the law requires us to.
International Transfers
Some of our service providers store or process information outside the country where you live. When information leaves the UK or the European Economic Area, we rely on recognized safeguards, such as adequacy decisions or standard contractual clauses, to keep it protected.
How Long We Keep It
We keep personal information only as long as we need it for the purpose it was collected for. Analytics data is deleted or anonymized automatically after a set period of no more than 26 months. Emails are kept for up to two years after our last reply, unless we need them longer to deal with a dispute. Referral records are kept for as long as tax and accounting rules require.
Your Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:
To use any of these rights, email [email protected]. We will reply within one month, and we may ask you to confirm your identity first. If you're unhappy with how we handle your information, you can complain to your data protection authority, such as the Information Commissioner's Office in the UK or the supervisory authority in your EU country.
Children
AnjouanSites is for adults aged 18 and over. We don't knowingly collect information about anyone under 18. If you believe a child has sent us personal information, contact us and we will delete it.
Security
The site is served over an encrypted connection, and access to the information we hold is limited to the people who need it. No website can promise complete security, but we review our measures and our providers regularly.
Changes to This Policy
We will update this policy when the way we handle information changes, and the date at the top of the page shows when it last changed. If a change is significant, we will say so clearly on the site.
