We are an editorial and affiliate website focused on Online Casinos Australia, online pokies, and broader iGaming topics, including licensing, safety, responsible gambling tools, and payout methods.

What We Collect

We collect limited information to operate the site, improve our content, and understand how visitors use our pages.

Information you choose to provide

If you contact us (for example, by emailing [email protected]), we receive:

• Your email address

• The content of your message and any information you include

We use this only to respond to your enquiry and maintain basic records of communication.

• Pages viewed and time spent on each page

• Referring website or link

• General location (e.g., city or region), not precise GPS

• Technical identifiers such as cookie IDs or similar

We typically use this information in aggregated form to understand trends, like which casino reviews are most popular with Australian players, or which guides need improvement.

Cookies and similar technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies to:

• Remember basic preferences (e.g., that you closed a notice or banner)

• Measure traffic and performance (analytics)

• Support advertising and affiliate tracking (e.g., when you click through to a casino site)

Sensitive information

We do not intentionally collect sensitive information such as government IDs, health data, or detailed financial account numbers. We do not run identity checks; those are carried out only by licensed gambling operators or payment providers you choose to use.

We use the information we collect to:

• Operate, maintain, and secure wilsonsalmanac.com

• Diagnose and fix technical issues

We do not use your information to profile you in a way that produces legal or similarly significant decisions, and we do not offer gambling services or handle real-money payments on this site.

Cookies and Tracking

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored in your browser. They help websites remember certain information between visits. We may also use pixels or tracking URLs that work in a similar way.

On wilsonsalmanac.com, cookies and tracking technologies are mainly used to:

• Understand how visitors use the site (analytics)

• See which pages, such as Australian online casino reviews, are most popular

• Measure the performance of affiliate links to partners

• Limit the number of times you see the same notice or message

Managing cookies

You can control cookies through your browser settings by:

• Blocking cookies entirely

• Deleting cookies already stored on your device

• Using private or incognito browsing modes

Please note that blocking some types of cookies may affect how our site functions.

Advertising, Analytics, and Affiliates

We use common third-party tools and services for:

• Analytics – to understand how many people visit our site, which pages they view, and how they found us.

• Advertising and affiliate programs – some links on wilsonsalmanac.com are affiliate links. When you click one and later sign up or make a qualifying action on a partner site, we may earn a commission.

Outbound links to online casinos and other services may contain identifiers (such as click IDs, campaign tags, or UTMs) so that our partners know you arrived from our site. This does not change the price you pay, but it may help track which content led to which sign-ups.

Sharing of Information

We may share limited information with:

• Service providers: companies that host our website, provide analytics, security, or other technical services. They act on our instructions and are not allowed to use your data for their own unrelated purposes.

• Affiliate and advertising partners: to track clicks, conversions, and performance of our content and links.

• Legal and safety purposes: to comply with Australian law, respond to lawful requests, or protect our rights, users, or the public.

We do not sell your personal information in the ordinary sense of selling customer lists or similar.

Your Privacy Rights

While Australian privacy law (including the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles) focuses primarily on organisations that meet certain thresholds, we aim to treat your information responsibly regardless of those thresholds.

Depending on how privacy law applies, you may have rights such as:

• Access – to ask what personal information we hold about you

• Correction – to request that we correct inaccurate information

• Complaint – to lodge a privacy complaint

You can contact us at [email protected] if you want to exercise these rights or raise a privacy concern. We may need to verify your identity before acting on certain requests. If you are not satisfied with our response, you may have the right to lodge a complaint with the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC).

Data Retention and Security

We keep information only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes set out above, for example:

• Server logs: generally up to 12 months

• Analytics data: commonly up to 24 months, often in aggregated form

We use reasonable safeguards to protect information, such as HTTPS encryption, restricted access to systems, and regular software updates. No website can guarantee perfect security, but we take steps to reduce risk where we can.

Children and Young People

wilsonsalmanac.com is intended for adults in Australia and focuses on online casinos and gambling-related content. You must be at least 18 years old, or the higher legal age in your state or territory, to use this site.
We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor has provided us with information, please contact us so we can delete it.

Third-Party Links

Our guides and reviews often link to external websites, including online casinos, regulators, and responsible gambling services. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those external sites. When you leave wilsonsalmanac.com, we encourage you to read the privacy policy of each site you visit.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. Your continued use of the site after a change means you accept the updated policy.
