Privacy Policy
At CasinoRank South Africa, we take your privacy seriously and are committed to protecting the personal and non-personal information we collect. Understanding what information we collect and how we use it is essential to your experience on our site. Below is a detailed breakdown of the types of information we gather and the purpose behind collecting it in South Africa.
Personal Information We Collect in SA
Personal information refers to data that can identify you as an individual when you're browsing for casinos in South Africa. This information is collected in two primary ways: directly provided by you and automatically collected through your interaction with our website.
Info You Give Us Directly
When you interact with CasinoRank South Africa, maybe by joining a competition or reaching out to our support crew, we collect personal details like your name, email address, and other contact info. This is essential for us to deliver the services you need, like replying to queries or managing your competition entries. By sharing this, you help us tailor our communication to your preferences and make sure you get content that's actually useful to you.
Info We Collect Automatically
Besides the info you provide directly, we also collect data automatically as you navigate through our website. This includes technical details like your IP address, browser type, device information, and browsing behaviour. These details are gathered using cookies and other tracking tech that monitor how you interact with our site. For instance, we track the pages you visit, the time spent on each page, and the actions you take while browsing. This data helps us understand how users from South Africa engage with our content and allows us to fine-tune the website for better performance and user experience. It also assists in spotting and preventing shady activity. For more on how we use cookies, check out our Cookie Policy page.
Non-Personal Information
In addition to personal data, we collect non-personal information that cannot be used to identify you individually. This data includes aggregated usage statistics, like the number of visitors to a particular page, average session duration, and bounce rates. Gathering non-personal info is crucial for analysing website traffic and spotting trends in user behaviour. This data is typically anonymised and used to improve our services by making informed decisions about content creation, website design, and marketing strategies for our South African players.
For instance, by analysing non-personal data, we can figure out which articles or reviews are most popular among users. This allows us to focus our efforts on creating more of the content that our South African audience is interested in. This approach ensures that our website remains relevant and engaging for all visitors.
