How Top Paying Online Casinos handles your data
Last updated: June 28, 2026. This policy applies to Top Paying Online Casinos. We have tried to keep it readable, and the sections run from what we collect, through how it is used and shared, to the choices you have.
Overview
Top Paying Online Casinos is an information service for a Canadian audience. We review casinos; we are not one. We do not accept bets, take payments or ask readers to open accounts, and the site has no login, newsletter or comment feature. Most visitors therefore leave only a faint technical trace.
In practice that means we are an unusual kind of data holder: the information involved is mostly what any web server notices about a visit, plus the occasional email, and we treat both with care and for limited purposes.
Data that reaches us
If you email [email protected], we receive your address and the words you write. When you browse, our systems and those of our service providers record an IP address, an approximate region, the type of browser and device, which pages were opened, and the previous page or link that referred you. Cookies and local storage entries can hold identifiers.
Our use of cookies
We distinguish three kinds. Necessary cookies make the pages load and behave properly and guard against abuse. Analytics cookies come from a privacy-minded tool, such as Matomo, and show us in aggregate which pages readers use. Affiliate cookies are set by a casino or its tracking partner after you click one of our links, so that a registration can be attributed to us. Your browser can refuse or delete any of them.
Refusing a cookie will not lock you out of reviews or rankings. You may find that a remembered preference, like a dismissed banner, comes back until you accept or decline again.
Reasons we process data
- to read and answer your messages;
- to run the site safely and fix faults;
- to see how readers use our content and improve it;
- to stop fraud, scraping and other misuse.
We do not sell personal information to anyone.
Sending you to casinos
When you follow a link to a casino you leave this site. The casino becomes responsible for whatever it collects, subject to its own policy, and we advise reading that before registering. We receive no access to your account, play or deposits there.
Companies in the background
Hosting, content delivery and security filtering, email handling and analytics are supplied by outside companies working on our behalf. Their servers can be located outside Canada, so technical records or messages may be processed in other countries, where local law applies.
Canadian privacy law and your requests
Canada's PIPEDA, along with provincial laws governing private-sector organisations, gives you rights over your personal information. You may request access to it, ask for corrections, ask for deletion, and withdraw consent. Make the request by email to [email protected]; we may ask for proof that the mailbox is yours. If you remain unhappy, you can take the matter to the federal or provincial privacy commissioner.
Retention
Logs are usually discarded after some weeks or months. Emails are retained while they remain necessary to resolve a question or document a fix, then deleted. We do not stockpile.
Summary figures, such as how many readers opened a page in a month, contain no personal detail and may be kept longer.
Protecting minors
Our readers are meant to be adults, and the minimum gambling age is 19 in most provinces and 18 in Alberta, Manitoba and Quebec. We have no wish to gather details about children and do not do so knowingly. If you find that a child has sent us information, please say so and we will delete it.
Security
We serve the site over HTTPS. Please, though, avoid including passwords or payment card numbers in emails to us; we do not need that information.
Updates and questions
If we change this policy we will post the new version here with a fresh date. For anything you want to ask, write to [email protected].
