Last updated: September 2026

At GamblersABC ("we," "our," "us," or the "Platform"), protecting your personal data and ensuring full transparency regarding our data processing activities is paramount. This Privacy Policy sets out how we collect, process, store, and safeguard information collected across gamblersabc.com, brasil.gamblersabc.com, and all associated regional websites in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the Brazilian General Data Protection Law (LGPD - Lei nº 13.709/2018), and international privacy standards.

1. Information We Collect

A. Technical & Telemetry Data (Automated)

When you browse our Platform, our web servers and security firewalls automatically process non-personally identifiable technical telemetry:

  • Device & Environment: Operating system, screen dimensions, browser version, preferred system language, and device category.
  • Network & Routing: Anonymized IP addresses (where the last octet is masked), internet service provider, and approximate geographic region (used strictly to route you to your designated regional front, such as English Global or Portuguese Brazil).
  • Interaction Telemetry: Pages accessed, timestamps, referral headers, and click events on comparison tables.

B. User-Provided Information (Voluntary)

We collect personal information solely when you voluntarily submit it to us:

  • Newsletter Subscription: Your email address and promotional preferences when opting in to receive our weekly bonus alerts.
  • Member Account Registration: Chosen username, email address, salted password hash, and bookmarked favorite brands/promotions.
  • Commercial & B2B Inquiries: Corporate name, professional work email, messaging handle (Telegram, Skype, LinkedIn), and licensing details submitted via our partnership or directory claim forms.

2. Google Analytics 4 (GA4) Disclosure

2.1. Use of GA4: This Platform utilizes Google Analytics 4 (GA4), an industry-standard web analysis service provided by Google LLC (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA).

2.2. IP Anonymization & Data Aggregation: GA4 collects telemetry regarding user interactions, session durations, and referral pathways. On our Platform, IP Anonymization is active by default. Your IP address is shortened within member states of the European Union or other contracting states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area before transmission to Google servers.

2.3. Purpose: We use GA4 solely to analyze aggregated user behavior, monitor server loads, and improve comparison navigation. We do not correlate Google Analytics telemetry with individual member identity records.

2.4. Opt-Out Mechanism: You can permanently prevent Google Analytics from collecting your browsing data across all websites by downloading and installing the official Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on. For further information on Google’s handling of user data, consult the Google Privacy Policy.
