Privacy Policy – Wintino Australia
This privacy policy explains how Wintino Australia (wintino-aud.com) collects, uses and protects your personal information. We are an independent information portal reviewing online gaming operators – we do not run a casino, accept bets or hold player accounts.
Who controls your data
The data controller for information collected through this site is wintino-aud.com. We operate independently of the gaming operators we review. When you contact us or use this site, your data stays with us and our service providers – it never reaches the operators unless you choose to visit their platforms directly.
What information reaches us
Technical data: When you visit wintino-aud.com, our server logs record your IP address, browser type, device information, pages viewed and time spent on site. This happens automatically and helps us understand how the site is used.
Contact form submissions: If you email [email protected] or use a contact form, we collect whatever information you choose to provide – typically your email address, name and the content of your message. We keep this only as long as needed to respond and resolve your query.
Cookies and tracking: We use cookies for site functionality and analytics. Session cookies remember your preferences during a visit; analytics cookies (which require your consent) help us see which content is most useful. Advertising cookies may be set by third-party networks. You can read more in our cookie policy.
Why we process your data
We use the information collected to operate the site, respond to enquiries, improve content, and understand which articles readers find helpful. Analytics data shows us what works and what doesn't – it's aggregated and never identifies you personally.
Our lawful basis under the Australian Privacy Act and Privacy Principles is legitimate interest for operating an information service, and consent where we've explicitly asked for it (analytics and advertising cookies).
Who else sees it
We share data with:
- Hosting providers who keep the site online – they process data on our behalf under contract.
- Analytics services (e.g. Google Analytics) when you've consented to tracking cookies – these providers operate under their own privacy policies.
- Advertising networks that may serve ads on the site, again only with your consent.
We do not sell your data to anyone. We do not pass contact details to the gaming operators we review. If you register with an operator after leaving our site, that relationship is between you and them – covered by their own privacy policy, not ours.
Your rights under Australian privacy law
The Privacy Act 1988 and the Australian Privacy Principles give you several rights over your personal information:
| Right | What it means |
|---|---|
| Access | Request a copy of the data we hold about you |
| Correction | Ask us to fix inaccurate or incomplete information |
| Erasure | Request deletion of your data where we no longer need it |
| Objection | Object to processing based on legitimate interest |
| Withdraw consent | Revoke consent for analytics/advertising cookies at any time |
How to exercise these rights
Email [email protected] with your request. We'll respond within a reasonable timeframe, typically within 30 days. If you're not satisfied with how we've handled your data, you can lodge a complaint with the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC) at oaic.gov.au.
How long we keep your information
Server logs and analytics data are retained for up to 26 months, then automatically deleted. Contact form submissions and email correspondence are kept for two years after the last interaction, unless you ask us to delete them sooner. Cookies expire according to their type – session cookies when you close your browser, analytics cookies after the period stated in our cookie policy.
Protection of minors
This site is intended for adults aged 18 and over. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. If you're a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal data, contact [email protected] and we'll delete it promptly.
Changes to this policy
We may update this privacy policy from time to time to reflect changes in how we operate or in response to legal requirements. When we do, the revised version will be posted here with a new date. Significant changes will be highlighted at the top of the page.
