Last Updated: July 21, 2025

Welcome to Casino Jester ("we," "us," or "our"). We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring any data we handle is managed responsibly. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect information in accordance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR), the Data Protection Act 2018, and other applicable UK laws. As a UK-based gambling affiliate and casino comparison website, we operate in compliance with relevant regulations.

1. Who We Are

Casino Jester is operated by BetPunks Ltd, a company registered in England and Wales with company number 16594489. We are the data controller responsible for any data processed via our website. You can contact us at contact@betpunks.ai or 128 City Road, London EC1V 2NX United Kingdom with any questions about this policy.

2. What Data We Collect

We collect only non-personal data to operate and improve our website. This includes:

• Technical Data: Such as your IP address, browser type, device information, and general browsing activity (e.g., pages visited, time spent on site).

• Usage Data: Aggregated information about how visitors use our website, such as clicks on affiliate links to third-party casino sites.

We do not collect personal data such as your name, email address, or other identifiable information. Data is collected automatically when you visit our website or interact with our content.

3. How We Use Your Data

We process non-personal data for the following purposes and lawful bases under UK GDPR:

• To Provide Our Services (Legitimate Interests): To operate our website, display casino comparisons, and facilitate connections to gambling operator’s websites.

• To Improve Our Website (Legitimate Interests): To analyze usage patterns and enhance user experience through aggregated, anonymized data.

We do not use your data for marketing or any purpose requiring personal identification.

4. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Our website uses cookies solely for analytics purposes. These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our site (e.g., which pages are most popular). We use:

• Session Cookies: Temporary cookies that expire when you close your browser, used to track your visit during a single session.

• Analytics Cookies: To collect aggregated data about site usage.

No personal data is collected via cookies. You can manage your cookie preferences through your browser settings, though disabling cookies may affect site functionality. For more details, see our Cookie Policy.

5. Sharing Your Data

We do not share your data with third parties, including affiliate partners or service providers, beyond the use of anonymized analytics data processed by our analytics provider. This provider acts as a data processor on our behalf and complies with UK data protection laws.

If we sell, transfer, or merge parts of our business or assets, your personal data may be transferred to a third party. Any new owner of our business may continue to use your personal data in the same way(s) that we have used it, as specified in this Privacy Policy (i.e. to communicate with you).

In some limited circumstances, we may be legally required to share certain personal data, which might include yours, if we are involved in legal proceedings or complying with legal obligations, a court order, or the instructions of a government authority.

6. International Transfers

If our analytics provider operates outside the UK (e.g., in the EEA or elsewhere), any data transfers comply with UK GDPR through approved mechanisms like adequacy decisions or Standard Contractual Clauses. Only anonymized, non-personal data is involved.

7. Data Retention

We do not create customer accounts or store personal data. Data collected via session cookies is retained only for the duration of your visit and is deleted when you close your browser. Analytics data is retained in an aggregated, anonymized form for up to [e.g., 2 years] to monitor site performance, after which it is securely deleted.

If you send [us] an email, [we] may collect your name, your email address, and any other information which you choose to give [us]. For the purposes of the Data Protection Legislation, [We are] the data controller responsible for such personal data. Any and all emails containing your personal data will be deleted no later than 6 months after receipt of the email, and no other personal data will be retained for any longer than is necessary.

8. Your Rights

As we collect only non-personal data, most UK GDPR rights (e.g., access, erasure, portability) do not apply. However, if you believe we have inadvertently collected personal data, you may:

• Contact us to request clarification or deletion.

• Object to processing based on legitimate interests.

To exercise these rights, contact us at contact@betpunks.ai. We’ll respond within one month. You can also complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) at www.ico.org.uk or by calling 0303 123 1113.

9. Security

We use appropriate technical measures (e.g., secure servers, anonymization) to protect the non-personal data we collect from unauthorized access or misuse. No online system is 100% secure, but we take reasonable steps to safeguard your information.

10. Third-Party Links

Our website contains links to third-party casino sites. We are not responsible for their privacy practices. Please review their policies before engaging with those sites.

11. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect legal or operational changes. Significant updates will be posted on our website. Check back regularly for the latest version.

Casino Jester ("we," "us," or "our") uses cookies on our UK-focused online casino comparison website to enhance and analyse usage. This Cookie Policy explains what cookies we use, their purposes, and your management options. We operate in compliance with the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR), the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR), and other UK laws.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit our site. They help us track usage and improve functionality without collecting personal data.

2. Types of Cookies We Use

We use analytics cookies exclusively, deployed as session cookies. These are temporary cookies that:

• Enable us to analyse site performance and user behaviour.

• Do not persist beyond your browsing session.

We do not use functional, performance (beyond analytics), or advertising cookies.

3. Purpose of Our Cookies

Our cookies serve three purposes:

• Site Analytics: To understand aggregated visitor behaviour (e.g., page views, time spent on site).

• Tracking Link Clicks: To monitor clicks on links to casino operators.

• Improving User Experience: To identify popular content or areas needing enhancement based on usage data.

No personal data is collected—data remains anonymized.

4. Third-Party Involvement

We use Google Analytics to set analytics cookies on our site. These cookies collect anonymized data to help us analyse usage and track affiliate clicks in aggregate. No other third parties (e.g., affiliate networks or casino operators) set cookies via our website.

5. Cookie Duration

All cookies we use are session cookies, meaning they:

• Expire and are deleted when you close your browser.

• Do not persist beyond your current visit.

6. Cookies We Use

Below is a list of cookies currently in use:

Cookie Name Purpose Type Duration Provider

_session_id Tracks session data Session Cookie Browser session [Casino Jester]

_ga Analytics & affiliate tracking Session Cookie Browser session Google Analytics

_gid Analytics (daily stats) Session Cookie Browser session Google Analytics

Note: While Google Analytics typically uses persistent cookies (e.g., _ga lasting 2 years), we configure them as session cookies to expire when your browser closes.

7. Legal Basis and Consent

Under PECR, we must inform you about cookies and obtain consent for non-essential ones. Here’s our approach:

• Essential Cookies: Session cookies for basic site operation (e.g., _session_id) are necessary and do not require consent, based on our legitimate interests.

• Analytics & Tracking Cookies: Cookies for analytics and link tracking (e.g., _ga, _gid) are non-essential and legally require your consent in the UK, even as session cookies.

Current Status: We do not yet have a consent mechanism in place. To comply with PECR, we recommend implementing a cookie banner allowing users to:

• Accept: Enable all cookies.

• Reject: Disable non-essential cookies (analytics and tracking).

Without this, our use of analytics and tracking cookies may not fully comply with UK law. We are working to add this feature soon—please check back for updates.

8. Managing Cookies

You can control cookies through:

• Browser Settings: Block or delete cookies via your browser (e.g., Chrome, Firefox). Instructions are in your browser’s help section. Blocking cookies may affect site analytics and performance

• Future Consent Tool: Once implemented, our cookie banner will let you accept or reject non-essential cookies directly.

9. Third-Party Links

Our site includes links to casino operators. Clicking these may lead to cookies set by those sites, which we do not control. Review their policies for details.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy as our practices or legal requirements evolve. Changes will be posted here, with significant updates highlighted on our site.
