Privacy Policy

Last updated: January 2026

Welcome to aawr.co.uk ("we", "us", "our"), an affiliate website providing information and reviews of non-GamStop, Curaçao-licensed casino sites. We are committed to protecting your privacy and handling your personal data in accordance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018. This policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you visit our website.

Please note: This website is intended for users aged 18 and over. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under the age of 18.

Information We Collect

We may collect and process the following types of information:

• Contact details — your name and email address, if you contact us directly or subscribe to our communications.
• IP address — collected automatically for security, analytics, and fraud prevention purposes.
• Cookies and similar technologies — small data files stored on your device to improve your browsing experience (see our Cookie Policy section below).
• Usage data — including pages visited, time spent on site, referring URLs, browser type, device information, and approximate location (country level).

How We Use Information

We use the information we collect for the following purposes:

• Analytics — to understand how visitors use our website so we can improve content, layout, and user experience.
• Affiliate tracking — to record when you click links to third-party casino operators, which allows us to receive commission at no extra cost to you. This tracking is typically done via cookies and does not identify you personally to us.
• Site improvement — to diagnose technical issues, monitor performance, and enhance the relevance of our reviews and recommendations.
• Communication — to respond to your enquiries when you contact us.

We process personal data on the lawful bases of legitimate interests (site operation and analytics) and consent (non-essential cookies and marketing communications).

Cookie Policy

Our website uses the following types of cookies:

• Essential cookies — required for the basic functionality and security of the website. These cannot be disabled.
• Analytics cookies — used to gather aggregated statistics about site traffic and usage patterns.
• Affiliate/tracking cookies — placed when you click outbound links to casino operators, enabling commission attribution. These are typically set by third-party affiliate networks.
• Preference cookies — used to remember your settings and choices on our site.

Opting out: You can manage or withdraw your cookie consent at any time via our cookie banner or settings tool. You can also block or delete cookies through your browser settings. Please note that disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of the website.

Third-Party Links

Our website contains links to third-party casino and gambling websites, including operators licensed in Curaçao and other jurisdictions. When you click these links and leave aawr.co.uk, you are subject to the privacy policies and practices of those third parties.

We do not control, and are not responsible for, the data collection, use, or protection practices of any third-party casino, affiliate network, or service provider. We strongly encourage you to read the privacy policy of any external site before providing personal information or registering an account.

Your Rights

Under the UK GDPR, you have the following rights regarding your personal data:

• Right of access — to request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
• Right to rectification — to request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data.
• Right to erasure — to request deletion of your personal data ("right to be forgotten").
• Right to restriction — to request that we limit how we process your data.
• Right to data portability — to receive your data in a structured, commonly used format.
• Right to object — to object to processing based on legitimate interests or for direct marketing.
• Right to withdraw consent — where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw it at any time.

If you are located in the EU/EEA, equivalent rights apply under the EU GDPR. If you are a US resident (including California under the CCPA/CPRA), you may have additional rights to access, delete, and opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information — we do not sell personal data.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at the email address below. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the UK Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk.

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this policy, or as required by law:

• Contact/enquiry data — retained for up to 24 months after our last correspondence.
• Analytics and usage data — retained in aggregated or anonymised form for up to 26 months.
• Cookie data — retained in accordance with the expiry periods stated in our cookie settings, typically no longer than 12 months.

Once data is no longer required, it is securely deleted or irreversibly anonymised.
