Privacy Policy

Last updated: 2026-04-28

This Privacy Policy explains how coolcat-cas.com ("we", "us", "our") collects, uses, and protects information when you visit our independent review site. We comply with Canada's Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) and applicable provincial privacy laws.

Who We Are

coolcat-cas.com is an independent review and information resource. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to CoolCat Casino. We do not operate any gambling services and we do not accept wagers.

Information We Collect

We collect two categories of information:

  • Information you provide — when you submit our contact form, we receive your name, email, subject line, and message body.
  • Information collected automatically — when you visit, our servers and analytics tools log standard technical data: IP address, approximate location (country/region), browser type and version, operating system, referring URL, pages visited, time spent, and clicks. This is collected via cookies and similar technologies (see our Cookie Policy).

How We Use Your Information

  • To respond to inquiries you submit through the contact form.
  • To measure traffic, understand which content is useful, and improve the site.
  • To detect and prevent fraud, abuse, and security incidents.
  • To track conversions on outbound affiliate links (we may receive a commission if you sign up at the operator through our links — see our Terms & Conditions).
  • To comply with legal obligations under Canadian law.

Legal Basis (PIPEDA Principles)

Under PIPEDA, we process personal information based on:

  • Consent — implied when you use the site, express when you submit the contact form or accept the cookie banner.
  • Legitimate interest — for analytics, security, and affiliate-link attribution.
  • Legal requirement — when disclosure is required by law or court order.

Sharing & Disclosure

We do not sell or rent personal information. We may share limited data with:

  • Analytics providers (e.g. Google Analytics) under their own terms.
  • Affiliate networks that record click-throughs and conversions (only the click event and tracking parameters — not your contact-form data).
  • Hosting and CDN providers that process traffic on our behalf.
  • Law enforcement, regulators, or courts where required by law.

Some of these providers may be located outside Canada, including in the United States and the European Union. By using the site, you acknowledge that your information may be transferred to and processed in those jurisdictions, subject to safeguards comparable to PIPEDA.

Your Rights Under PIPEDA

As a Canadian resident, you have the right to:

  • Access the personal information we hold about you.
  • Correct inaccurate or incomplete information.
  • Withdraw consent for processing at any time (subject to legal or contractual restrictions).
  • Request deletion of information we are not legally required to retain.
  • Lodge a complaint with the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada (priv.gc.ca) if you believe your rights have been violated.

To exercise any of these rights, email support@coolcat-cas.com. We respond within 30 days, as required by PIPEDA.

Data Retention

We keep contact-form submissions for up to 24 months unless ongoing correspondence requires longer retention. Analytics data is retained according to the analytics provider's settings (typically 14–26 months). Affiliate click logs are retained for the lifetime of the affiliate program plus any audit period.

Security

We use industry-standard safeguards including HTTPS encryption, access controls, and regular security reviews. No system is perfectly secure, however, so we cannot guarantee absolute protection.

Children

This site is intended for adults aged 18+ (19+ in some Canadian provinces). We do not knowingly collect information from minors. If we discover that we have collected information from someone under the legal age, we will delete it.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy. The "Last updated" date at the top will reflect any changes. Material changes will be flagged on the homepage where reasonable.
