Privacy Policy
Real money pokies sites for Australians: the top three in full, the next six in one table.
Claim Pokies BonusAustralian Online Pokies is a reading site: there are no player accounts, no deposits and no forms you must fill in to use it. This page sets out the limited visitor data that a website like ours still handles, and what you can do about it.
The short version
- Reading our guides does not require your name, email or phone number.
- Like every website, ours receives basic technical details from your browser.
- Cookies help the pages work, count traffic in aggregate and attribute click-throughs to casinos.
- We never sell visitor information.
- Once you land on a casino site, that casino's own privacy terms apply, not ours.
Technical details your browser sends
Each page request carries routine information: an IP address, the browser and device you use, your operating system, the referring page and the time of the visit. Our hosting and security services keep this in logs so they can deliver pages, spot attacks and fix faults. We look at it in summary form, for example which guides are read most, rather than to follow any one person around the site.
Cookies and similar tools
A cookie is a small file your browser keeps on our behalf. We rely on three kinds. Functional cookies remember small choices, such as a dismissed notice. Measurement cookies produce totals, such as page views and popular routes through the guide. Referral cookies note that a visit ended with a click-through to a casino, which is how a commission is matched to us. None of them is used to assemble a profile of you as an individual.
Your browser lets you refuse or clear cookies at any time. Doing so will not stop you reading the site, though a few conveniences may reset each visit.
When you click through to a casino
Buttons marked Get Bonus, Claim or Play pass through a redirect on their way to the casino. At that point the casino, and any tracking partner it uses, can record that you arrived from australian-online-pokies.info and may place its own cookies. Any account you open, any identity documents you upload and any payment you make are handled entirely by the casino. We only see aggregated reports, such as how many referred visitors registered, never your personal or banking details.
Who else sees the data
We pass technical data only to the providers that keep the site running, such as hosting, security and analytics services, and only to the extent each one needs for its job. We would also disclose information if Australian law required it. There is no sale or rental of visitor data, to casinos or to anyone else.
How long it is kept
Logs and analytics records are held for a limited period that covers security reviews and traffic reporting; after that they are removed or stripped of identifying detail. If you write to us, the message is kept only until the matter is dealt with.
Under 18s
The site is for adults. We do not set out to gather information about anyone under 18, and gambling is restricted to adults in Australia.
Your choices and rights
Australian privacy law, through the Privacy Act 1988 and its Australian Privacy Principles, gives individuals the ability to request access to personal information an organisation holds and to have it corrected. Visitors elsewhere may have similar or wider rights under their own law. Send any request through the contact options shown on australian-online-pokies.info, and we may ask you to confirm who you are first. If you are unhappy with our reply, the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner handles privacy complaints.
We will revise this page when the site or the rules change, and the version shown here is always the current one. Return to our Australian online pokies guide.
