Privacy policy and data protection
Overview

This privacy notice explains what personal and technical information we may process when you use this site, why we process it, how long we retain it, and the rights you have under Canadian privacy law, including PIPEDA and applicable provincial privacy rules.
We do not operate gambling services. References to operators or external sites mean third-party casino sites you may follow through affiliate links. This policy covers data processed by play-alberta-casino-ca.com only and does not apply to any third party you visit after leaving our site.

Contact information we collect when provided includes name, email address, and the content of any message you send to us. We do not request or retain payment card details or identity documents.

How We Use Data
Collected data is used to operate and improve the editorial site, respond to enquiries, and protect the site from abuse and fraudulent activity. Aggregate technical data helps us understand readership trends and improve site performance. We do not combine aggregate technical data with contact details unless required to respond to a specific enquiry.

Cookies
We use essential cookies or local storage only to maintain basic site functionality and user preferences. We do not use analytics or marketing cookies on this site.
Because we do not use analytics or marketing cookies, we do not track readers across sites for advertising purposes.
Third Parties
We engage third-party service providers to host the site, deliver email, and process enquiries. These providers act on our instructions and are contractually required to protect data. We do not share contact details for marketing by third parties unless you explicitly consent.
Affiliate links on our site direct you to third-party operators. Clicking through transfers you to that operator's website and that operator's privacy policy will govern any data they collect. Play Alberta Casino has no access to data collected by operators after you leave our site.
