This is a content site. It works fine without knowing who you are.
What We Collect
Standard server logs (IP, browser, pages viewed) for security and aggregate statistics, kept briefly. The free games run entirely in your browser - no accounts, no deposits, no personal data ever touches our servers from playing them.
Cookies
Only what is needed to remember basic preferences. No cross-site tracking pixels, no data brokers, no selling anything to anyone.
Outbound Links
When you follow a link to a casino, their privacy policy takes over - and casinos collect far more than we do (identity checks are a licensing requirement). Read their policy before registering.
Who Is Responsible for Your Data
High Stakes Casinos is the data controller for the limited information described on this page. This policy explains, in plain terms, what we collect when you read the site or play the free demo games, why we hold it, how long we keep it, and the rights you have under UK data protection law. Because this is an information site with no accounts and no real-money play, the honest headline is that we collect very little - but you are entitled to know exactly what "little" means.
The Data We Process, and Why
When you visit, our server records standard technical information: your IP address, browser type and version, device and operating system, the pages you view, and the site that referred you. This is used for two narrow purposes - keeping the site secure against abuse, and understanding in aggregate which pages are useful so we can improve them. We do not build a profile of you as an individual, and we do not need your name, email or any account to serve you the content. The free games run entirely in your browser; their credits, spins and outcomes never leave your device and never reach our servers.
Legal Basis
Under UK GDPR, we rely on legitimate interests for security logging and aggregate analytics - running a safe, usable site - balanced against your privacy, which is why the data is minimal and not tied to your identity. Where any cookie is not strictly necessary, we rely on your consent, which you can give or withdraw at any time through your browser settings.
Cookies and Analytics
We use only the cookies needed to remember basic preferences and to gather anonymous, aggregate usage statistics. We do not run cross-site advertising pixels, we do not sell or share data with data brokers, and we do not fingerprint you to follow you around the web. You can block or delete cookies in your browser at any time; the site and the games will still work, you may just lose a saved preference.
Third Parties and Outbound Links
When you click through to a casino, you leave this site and that operator's own privacy policy takes over. Licensed casinos collect far more than we do, because identity and age verification are legal requirements for real-money play - read their policy before you register. We may use reputable infrastructure providers (for hosting and aggregate analytics) who process technical data on our behalf under contract; they are not permitted to use it for their own purposes.
How Long We Keep It
Security and server logs are kept only as long as needed for their purpose and then deleted or anonymised. Aggregate statistics contain no personal identifiers once processed. We do not retain personal data indefinitely, and we do not keep anything we do not have a clear reason to hold.
Your Rights
You have the right to access the personal data we hold about you, to have it corrected or erased, to restrict or object to its processing, and to data portability, subject to the limits in UK data protection law. Because we hold so little and do not tie it to your identity, some of these will not apply in practice - but you are welcome to ask. You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), the UK's data protection regulator.
Age and Children
This site covers real-money gambling and is intended for adults aged 18 and over. It is not directed at children, and we do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 18. The free games are age-gated in spirit as well as content: they carry no prizes and encourage nobody to gamble for money. If you believe a minor has interacted with the site, contact us and we will remove any associated data.
Where This Applies
The site is written for a UK audience and this policy is framed around UK data protection law. If you visit from elsewhere, your own local rules may give you additional or different rights, and any casino you click through to will apply its own policy and its own jurisdiction's requirements. We keep our own data footprint deliberately small so that, wherever you are reading from, there is very little about you for anyone to hold in the first place.
Changes and Contact
If this policy changes, the updated version will be posted on this page. For any question about your data, or to exercise a right above, reach the editorial desk through the contact page and a person will answer. Anything unclear here, ask - we would rather explain than leave you guessing.
