Privacy Policy
Last updated: April 2026
This privacy policy explains how LicensedBettingSites.com.au (operator of Licensed Betting Sites) handles personal information in accordance with the Australian Privacy Act 1988 and the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs). We are committed to protecting the privacy of visitors to our site.
Who We Are
LicensedBettingSites.com.au is an Australian company that publishes independent reviews and comparison content for licensed Australian wagering operators. Our registered office is in Sydney, NSW.
Information We Collect
Licensed Betting Sites is a static informational website. We do not operate user accounts, registration forms, or login systems. The types of information we may collect include:
- Analytics data: We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors interact with our site. This includes pages visited, time on site, referral source, device type, browser, and approximate geographic location (city/country level). Google Analytics uses cookies and assigns a random identifier to your browser. It does not collect your name, email address, or other directly identifying information.
- Theme preference: We store your light/dark mode preference in your browser's localStorage. This stays on your device and is never transmitted to us.
- Favourites/shortlist: If you use our "add to shortlist" feature, selections are stored in your browser's localStorage only. We never receive this data.
We do not collect names, email addresses, phone numbers, financial information, or any other directly identifying personal information through this website.
How We Use Information
Analytics data is used to:
- Understand which content is most useful to visitors
- Identify technical issues (broken pages, slow load times)
- Measure the reach of our editorial content
- Improve site navigation and user experience
We do not use analytics data for targeted advertising, profiling, or automated decision-making.
Affiliate Links and Third-Party Tracking
This site contains affiliate links to licensed Australian betting operators. When you click an affiliate link:
- You are redirected through our link tracking system to the operator's website
- The operator may set cookies on your device to attribute your visit to our site
- If you subsequently open an account with that operator, we may receive a commission
- We do not receive any personal information about you from operators. We receive only aggregated, anonymised performance data (number of clicks, number of sign-ups)
Each operator has its own privacy policy governing how it handles your personal information. We strongly recommend reviewing an operator's privacy policy before providing them with any personal data.
Disclosure of Information
We do not sell, rent, or trade personal information. Analytics data processed by Google Analytics is handled under Google's privacy policy and data processing terms. Google may store data on servers outside Australia, including in the United States, subject to its own privacy safeguards.
Data Retention
Google Analytics data is retained for 14 months, after which it is automatically deleted. LocalStorage data (theme preference, favourites) remains on your device until you clear your browser data.
Your Rights
Under Australian privacy law, you have the right to:
- Request access to any personal information we hold about you
- Request correction of inaccurate information
- Lodge a complaint about how we handle personal information
Given that we do not collect directly identifying personal information, we are unlikely to hold data that can be linked to you individually. However, if you have a concern, please contact us.
Overseas Disclosure
Google Analytics may process data on servers outside Australia. No other personal information is disclosed overseas by us.
Complaints
If you believe we have breached the Australian Privacy Principles, contact us at [email protected]. We will investigate within 30 days. If you are unsatisfied with our response, you may lodge a complaint with the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC).
Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time. The "last updated" date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. Material changes will be noted on this page.
