Your data
4 Data Categories Behind This Gigadat Guide
Contact messages are deleted after 180 days, a sender's IP survives only as an irreversible hash, and no payment of any kind passes through this site.
IP address, device and screen size reach the server logs
Every page request sends an IP address, device type, browser version, screen size and referrer. Because a large share of visitors read this guide on a phone, viewport dimensions and mobile browser identifiers show up in the logs as often as desktop data, and the site uses them only to keep pages loading and to trace errors. Essential cookies keep the site working, analytics cookies count visits in aggregate, and affiliate-tracking cookies record that a click came from this guide. That data is kept only as long as analytics or partner reporting needs it. You can block or clear cookies in desktop browser settings or in the privacy menu of Safari or Chrome on a smartphone, though some pages will then forget your preferences on every visit.
Contact form: consent tick required, messages deleted after 180 days
The contact form collects your name, email, subject and message text, and nothing is sent unless you tick the consent box. On a small screen that box sits below the text field, and a submission without the tick simply fails.
Each message goes to the operator of the network of sites, a separate entity acting as data processor, for one purpose only: to review your request and reply to it. Once a message is delivered, this site does not keep a copy.
The sender's IP address is never stored. Only an irreversible hash of it is used to block abuse, so the original address cannot be recovered from what remains.
Attachments cannot be sent through the form. Links and contact details typed into a message are hidden automatically for security reasons, so a phone number pasted into the text will not reach the reader.
Messages are kept for up to 180 days. After that the name, email and text are deleted, and only anonymised statistics remain: subject, language and date.
Outbound clicks hand your data to the casino
Once you click through to one of the Gigadat casinos listed here, that casino's privacy policy and KYC rules apply from that moment. Anything entered in its cashier, including a Gigadat deposit through online banking, is processed by the casino and the payment provider rather than by this guide, which never takes or handles payments itself. Read the casino's privacy policy before you upload ID documents, because a verification request often appears only after the first withdrawal request, when a photo of your licence is already halfway out of a phone camera.
Access, correction and deletion through one form subject
PIPEDA is the general Canadian privacy framework, and in line with it you can ask what data about you is stored, have it corrected or deleted, or withdraw your consent. Send the request through the same contact form with the subject "Privacy / data request". This text describes how the site works and is not legal advice.
- Contact messages are kept for up to 180 days, after which only subject, language and date remain.
- The sender's IP is never stored, only an irreversible hash used to block abuse.
- Attachments are refused, and links or contact details inside a message are hidden automatically.
- This guide never processes payments, so casino cashiers and the payment provider handle every deposit.
- Requests for access or deletion go through the contact form under the subject "Privacy / data request".
