Privacy Policy – Captain Cooks Casino (New Zealand)
This Privacy Policy clearly explains how Captain Cooks Casino, available at captaincookscasinonz.shop, collects, uses, stores and protects your personal information when you visit our casino review pages, comparisons and guides. By browsing our site you agree to the practices described below. This policy reflects compliance with New Zealand law, including the Privacy Act 2020.
1) Who are we?
Captain Cooks Casino is an independent media and review site focused on online casino reviews, comparing offers and publishing editorial content. We do not provide gambling services directly; we present information, analysis and external links to third-party operators. For any questions you can contact us by post at High Street, Porirua, New Zealand 4089 or by phone at +64 262568208, and by email: support@.
2) Scope and legal basis for processing
We process personal data only when necessary:
- Legitimate interest: to ensure site security, prevent fraud and improve user experience.
- Consent: for non-essential cookies (analytics, personalisation, advertising) and for subscribing to our communications.
- Contract performance: when you request a specific service from us (for example, replying to a message).
- Legal obligations: limited retention of some technical records when required by law.
3) Categories of data collected
Depending on how you interact with Captain Cooks Casino, we may collect the following categories:
- Technical data: IP addresses (possibly truncated), cookie identifiers, server logs, browser type/settings, operating system, pages visited, visit duration, referrer URL.
- Browsing data: display preferences, outbound clicks to third-party sites, load performance.
- Contact data (optional): name, email, message content when you use a contact form or write to us at support@.
- Audience and attribution data (subject to consent): aggregated analytics, campaign data, UTM parameters, event tags.
4) Purposes of use
We use the data to:
- Operate and protect the site (detect anomalies, prevent abuse and spam).
- Measure audience and understand content usage to improve our guides and comparisons.
- Personalise the experience (for example, saving your language or cookie preferences).
- Respond to your enquiries sent via our forms or to support@.
- Ensure legal compliance, maintain records and handle any disputes.
5) Cookies and similar technologies
We use strictly necessary cookies for site operation and, subject to your consent, analytics and personalisation cookies. On your first visit a banner allows you to accept, reject or configure your choices. You can change your preferences at any time using the consent manager available at the bottom of the page.
Cookies help us to:
- Ensure a smooth browsing experience (load balancing, security, saving preferences).
- Analyse audience in aggregate to improve editorial quality and performance.
- Provide a personalised experience (if you consent).
6) Analytics tools and affiliate links
Analytics tools (self-hosted or third-party) may be used to produce aggregated and anonymised statistics. Additionally, Captain Cooks Casino may publish affiliate links to licensed gaming operators. These links do not imply any payment processing by us; if you click a link you will be redirected to a third-party site whose privacy policy applies. Please review their policies carefully.
7) Sharing and recipients of data
We do not sell your data. Possible recipients include:
- Technical providers (hosting, security, monitoring, analytics) acting as processors, bound by contractual confidentiality and security obligations.
- Competent authorities only when required by law or court order.
8) Transfers outside New Zealand
If some providers operate outside New Zealand, we ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place (for example, contractual clauses) to provide an adequate level of protection. Further information can be provided on request.
9) Retention periods
We retain data for limited periods proportionate to the purposes:
- Analytics cookies: according to the configured duration and/or until you withdraw consent.
- Technical logs: short technical retention required for security and diagnostics.
- Contact messages: for the time needed to process your request, then limited archiving if necessary.
10) Information security
We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures (encryption in transit, server hardening, access controls, monitoring). Information is stored on secure servers and regularly updated. While no system can guarantee zero risk, we are committed to protecting your data to the highest practicable standard.
11) Your rights
Under the Privacy Act 2020 and related data protection rules, you have the following rights:
- Access to your data;
- Correction of inaccurate data;
- Erasure where lawful to do so;
